A 57-year-old patient was referred to us by a foot and ankle surgeon, following a right first metatarsophalangeal (MTP) joint fusion that unfortunately resulted in a non-union.
After a complex revision procedure involving hardware removal, debridement, iliac crest bone grafting, and stronger plate fixation, the patient was progressing well clinically at 11 weeks post-revision. Radiographs showed early evidence of bone continuity and successful ankylosis.
To support the biological healing process, our Oska Pulse device was introduced as a non-invasive adjunct. It works through multiple mechanisms to promote recovery:
๐๐ป๐ด๐ถ๐ผ๐ด๐ฒ๐ป๐ฒ๐๐ถ๐: Forms new blood vessels to supply oxygen-rich blood to tissues
๐๐ต๐ผ๐ป๐ฑ๐ฟ๐ผ๐ด๐ฒ๐ป๐ฒ๐๐ถ๐: Develops new cartilage tissue
๐ข๐๐๐ฒ๐ผ๐ด๐ฒ๐ป๐ฒ๐๐ถ๐: Promotes new bone formation and fracture repair
๐ฃ๐ฎ๐ถ๐ป ๐ฅ๐ฒ๐ฑ๐๐ฐ๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป ๐ฆ๐ถ๐ด๐ป๐ฎ๐น๐น๐ถ๐ป๐ด: Reduces pain through the central nervous system, unlike TENS which only blocks pain temporarily

We are grateful for the opportunity to contribute to this patientโs recovery by providing a non-invasive adjunct designed to support and enhance the biological processes underlying surgical bone healing.
