Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Survival Analysis of Implants at 1 Year | 1 years | Compare the pooled cumulative 3-year amputation (above or below the knee) rate of neuropathic patients implanted with SALVATION™ External Fixation, SALVATION™ Fusion Bolts and Beams, SALVATION™ Midfoot Nail, The SALVATION™ 3Di Plating System, VALOR™ NAIL, HOFFMANN® LRF SYSTEM and/or T2® ICF SYSTEM derived from a Kaplan-Meier survival analysis to a performance goal. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| EQ-5D-5L- Index | 1 year | Evaluate improvements in patient-reported pain, function, and social interaction for quality of life from pre-op through each annual visit as assessed by the EQ-5D-5L and its component scores. Health state index scores generally range from less than 0 to 1 with higher scores indicating higher health utility. The health state preferences often represent national or regional values and can therefore differ between countries/regions. |
| FAAM-ADL | 1 years | The FAAM has been shown to be valid and responsive in assessing diabetic foot disease and includes 2 subscales: Activities of Daily Living (ADL) Subscale (21 items) and Sports Subscale (8 items). For each subscale patients are asked to answer each question with a single response that most clearly describes their condition within the past week: no difficulty (4 points), slight difficulty (3 points), moderate difficulty (2 points), extreme difficulty (1 point), and unable to do (0 points). To calculate the score for either subscale, the total number of points are added (84 for the ADL subscale and 32 for the sports subscale) and converted to a percentage. A higher score reflects a higher level of physical function. |
| Survival Analysis of Implants at 5 Years | 5 years | Compare the pooled cumulative 5-year amputation (above or below the knee) rate of neuropathic patients implanted with SALVATION™ External Fixation, SALVATION™ Fusion Bolts and Beams, SALVATION™ Midfoot Nail, The SALVATION™ 3Di Plating System, VALOR™ NAIL, HOFFMANN® LRF SYSTEM and/or T2® ICF SYSTEM derived from a Kaplan-Meier survival analysis to a performance goal. |
| Radiographic Assessment | 5 years | Assess fusion and consolidation time of bony unions utilizing surgeon's evaluations of standard of care x-rays |
| EQ-5D-5L-VAS | 1 Year | The second part of the EQ-5D-5L questionnaire consists of a visual analogue scale (VAS) on which the patient rates his/her perceived health from 0 (the worst imaginable health) to 100 (the best imaginable health). |

Outcome results
Survival Analysis of Implants at 1 Year
Compare the pooled cumulative 3-year amputation (above or below the knee) rate of neuropathic patients implanted with SALVATION™ External Fixation, SALVATION™ Fusion Bolts and Beams, SALVATION™ Midfoot Nail, The SALVATION™ 3Di Plating System, VALOR™ NAIL, HOFFMANN® LRF SYSTEM and/or T2® ICF SYSTEM derived from a Kaplan-Meier survival analysis to a performance goal.
Time frame: 1 years
Population: Given the early termination of the study the device failure analysis is through to 1 year as opposed to 3 years. 42 Subjects received the study device(s).

EQ-5D-5L- Index
Evaluate improvements in patient-reported pain, function, and social interaction for quality of life from pre-op through each annual visit as assessed by the EQ-5D-5L and its component scores. Health state index scores generally range from less than 0 to 1 with higher scores indicating higher health utility. The health state preferences often represent national or regional values and can therefore differ between countries/regions.
Time frame: 1 year
Population: Only 31 out of 42 subjects had data available at the 1 year time point for EQ-5D-5L Index.
| Arm | Measure | Value (MEAN) | Dispersion |
|---|---|---|---|
| Wright Medicals Lower Extremity Devices Used to Treat Neuropathic Patients | EQ-5D-5L- Index | 0.88 score on scale | Standard Deviation 0.11 |
EQ-5D-5L-VAS
The second part of the EQ-5D-5L questionnaire consists of a visual analogue scale (VAS) on which the patient rates his/her perceived health from 0 (the worst imaginable health) to 100 (the best imaginable health).
Time frame: 1 Year
Population: Only 31 out of 42 subjects had data available at the 1 year time point for EQ-5D-5L VAS.
| Arm | Measure | Value (MEAN) | Dispersion |
|---|---|---|---|
| Wright Medicals Lower Extremity Devices Used to Treat Neuropathic Patients | EQ-5D-5L-VAS | 86.3 units on a scale | Standard Deviation 8.8 |
FAAM-ADL
The FAAM has been shown to be valid and responsive in assessing diabetic foot disease and includes 2 subscales: Activities of Daily Living (ADL) Subscale (21 items) and Sports Subscale (8 items). For each subscale patients are asked to answer each question with a single response that most clearly describes their condition within the past week: no difficulty (4 points), slight difficulty (3 points), moderate difficulty (2 points), extreme difficulty (1 point), and unable to do (0 points). To calculate the score for either subscale, the total number of points are added (84 for the ADL subscale and 32 for the sports subscale) and converted to a percentage. A higher score reflects a higher level of physical function.
Time frame: 1 years
Population: The patient did not complete the Sports subscale post-operatively due to physician instructions to avoid those types of activities, so FAAM results reflect the ADL subscore exclusively. A total of 7 out of 42 subjects had available data at the 1 year time point for FAAM-ADL.
| Arm | Measure | Value (MEAN) | Dispersion |
|---|---|---|---|
| Wright Medicals Lower Extremity Devices Used to Treat Neuropathic Patients | FAAM-ADL | 96.9 percentage of total score | Standard Deviation 2.85 |
