VA study tracks ankle surgery patients for over a decade
NCT ID NCT00391365
Summary
This study aimed to understand how well two common ankle surgeries—fusion and joint replacement—help people with severe ankle arthritis regain mobility and reduce pain. Researchers followed 368 patients for up to 12 years after their surgery, using surveys, step counters, and walking lab tests to measure their function and activity levels. The goal was to gather long-term data to help doctors and future patients make better-informed decisions about these procedures.
