Orthofix (Lewisville, Texas) is reporting the launch of a large-scale clinical study to evaluate the use of pulsed electromagnetic fields (PEMF) technology to see if the therapy can improve osteogenesis (bone growth) in Type II odontoid fractures. More specifically, the study will examine the safety and effectiveness of PEMF treatment with the Orthofix Cervical-Stim device as an adjunct to standard immobilization with a rigid collar.
