How fast to walk with Stryde/Precise Max (for those who did it)
« on: March 31, 2024, 10:39:26 PM »
As Precise Max will be similar to Stryde (weight bearing).
How fast you guys started walking with crutches or without?
Was it during lengthening or after?

I'm trying to understand how many weeks/months are needed from day 1 (surgery) to be able to walk (go shopping, walk around apartment etc).

From my understanding you can begin walking almost immediately after surgery with crutches. To walk without them takes about 2 months.

Looks promising. Looking at the information about this, per leg at the minimum nail diameter of 10mm is 95lbs per leg. So does that mean it's 190lbs for total bodyweight? Cause that's pretty impressive, it'll really help with PT if you're able to walk without worry breaking the nail.

Ideal goal: (178cm~180cm) 5'10~5'11 with two separate bilateral(femur+tibia) lengthening / (183cm) 6' at max safe goal
Normal goal: (176cm) 5'9 with femur lengthening
Minimum goal: (173.5cm) 5'8 with femur/tibia lengthening

Plan in 2025~2026 when Precice Max comes and has some good outcomes.

How long would it take to walk normally (go to office without people noticing anything) if doing +4cm on Tibia with precice 2, or then if using precice max?

f you lengthen your tibia by 5 cm, you need 66 days (0.75 mm/day). If you lengthen the femur by 8 cm, you need 80 days (1 mm/day). Both bones will fuse after 2 months.

If you lengthen both the tibia and femur, you do it slower. Tibial 0.5 mm/day, femur 0.75 mm/day. Both bones will fuse after 2 months. Generally, you need half a year to get back on your feet.
