Brief summary

The OL1000 is intended to be used as a non-invasive adjunctive treatment for adult males or females that have sustained a closed, unstable ankle fracture that requires surgical treatment for stabilization. The initiation of the adjunctive treatment is to begin within 11 days of surgical stabilization.

Inclusion criteria

* Subject is diagnosed with an unstable, closed, isolated fracture of the ankle and underwent operative stabilization with plate(s) and/or screws (Weber Ankle Fracture Classification B and C)

Exclusion criteria

* Subject has an open fracture * Subject has any additional fractures of another bone besides the ankle fracture that is to be treated in the study including the contralateral ankle * Surgical stabilization was definitively performed with an external fixation system * Surgical stabilization was performed in such a manner that it will result in a fusion of the ankle joint * Malreduced Ankle as described by Phillips, et al 1985 JBJS * Surgical procedure included the use of osteoinductive materials in addition to rigid fixation * BMI ≥ 40 kg/m2
