Survey for Orthopedic Screw/Plate Innovation
Hi! We are a UT Austin Engineering Senior Design Team hoping to prototype an innovative screw for extremity fractures. Please fill out this anonymous short survey if you have suffered from a fracture before to identify customer needs of the device. Thank you!

Orthopedic question: growth plate partially closed after injury
My daughter, female, 11, otherwise healthy, had ORIF for a stage 4 salter Harris fracture in December. Today was her follow-up to check on the growth plate. Half did close, but her surgeon said that everything is still straight for now. We will follow up every 6 months until she is 14. I know that the risk is that the bone could grow unevenly, but I wonder if a partially closed growth plate ever ends up being OK or if it always means surgery eventually? Thanks!
