What is it indicated for?

The Ortho-Pro CSTS Screw is indicated for use in treatment of the hyperpronated foot and stabilization of the subtalar joint. It is designed to block the posterior and inferior displacement of the talus, thus allowing normal subtalar joint motion while blocking excessive pronation and the resulting sequela. It is appropriate for the following conditions:

* Severely pronated foot

* Calcaneal stance position greater than 50

* Manually correctable deformities

* Mid-tarsal breech (arch pain)

* Forefoot varus greater than 100

Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
