Paragon 28 Medical Education

Paragon 28 was established in 2010 as an orthopedic foot and ankle company. The name “Paragon 28” was chosen to show that we are exclusively a foot and ankle company, with the “28” representing the number of bones in the foot. We will remain true to that vision. Paragon 28 was started as a small, family-based company and we have kept those core ideals as we have grown.

Our mission is to strategically build a company around the core principles that drive innovation and quality. Relentlessly working to advance the science behind foot and ankle surgery, Paragon 28 is passionate about and committed to:

       - Creation and Innovation: Blending different surgical philosophies from various global thought leaders to develop bio-mechanically and clinically relevant surgical solutions.
       - A Focus on Service: A customer service based, dedicated, and highly trained distribution network to the foot and ankle market.
       - Efficient Practices: Meeting the needs of increasing pricing pressures and reimbursement while continuing to develop cutting-edge surgical implants.
      - Practical and Comprehensive Solutions: Creating complete surgeon-centric systems, specialty instruments, and next generation implants to solve real world issues faced by foot and ankle surgeons.
      - Research Motivated: Improving clinical outcomes through meaningful and unbiased research. We are ready to embrace research data regardless of marketing impact.

Motivation, competition and the desire to learn are unique characteristics that are incredibly valuable to our success. Paragon 28’s work environment is modern and exciting. We are seeking experienced and energetic individuals to join our team in areas of Quality, Engineering, Marketing, Sales, Administration and Accounting.

Paragon 28 was honored to hold its 4th Annual Podiatric Foot and Ankle Fellows Course at our global headquarters in Denver, Colorado last month!

The weekend was a medical education DPM Fellows-only course focused on forefoot, midfoot, and rearfoot technologies and surgical solutions.

A huge thank you to our incredible faculty which included Tom Chang, DPM (course co-chair), Mark Myerson, MD (course co-chair), Douglas Blacklidge, DPM, Byron Hutchinson, DPM, Mark A Prissel, DPM, and Patrick DeHeer, DPM for helping us put together such a valuable course and to all the surgeon attendees from across the US.

Together the faculty team has constructed an outstanding program focused on current topics in foot and ankle reconstruction and trauma.

A Balanced Approach to the Lapidus - PATENTED Precision® Guide Gorilla® Lapidus Plating System!

Paragon 28 developed and patented its Precision® Guide technology to allow surgeons a streamlined and reproducible method of balancing their plating construct with an interfragmentary screw. The PATENTED Precision® Guide when used in conjunction with the Gorilla® Lapidus Plate provides for accurate placement of a homerun screw across the joint while avoiding plate hardware.

This guide positions the interfragmentary screw in a predictable location closing down the tension side of the joint (screw is positioned as far from plate as possible and centered through the joint).

Multiple trajectories are provided with each guide to accommodate variations in patient anatomy and the size of the bone.

The guide limits the opportunity for the crossing wire to skive and achieves a true center position through the joint no matter the starting point.

"Many implants are re-iterations of existing products, however the Phantom® Metatarsal Shortening System is truly unique, innovative, and quite novel. The ability to precisely and accurately shorten the metatarsal with simple and rigid fixation will be a tremendous addition to the management of various forefoot pathologies." - Mark Myerson, MD

INDEPENDENTLY TENSION in MULTIPLE PLANES

The Paratrooper™ Plantar Plate System implant features two connected all-suture anchors providing for independent tensioning to assist in valgus and varus correction. 

The implant provides for self-retention of suture prior to knotting, allowing for partial tensioning of one side of the implant, and then the other to achieve precise correction. 

Tension may be reapproximated throughout the procedure prior to knotting. 

The implant is designed for maximum control to place the toe in a desired position.

Each of the plates in the Gorilla® Lisfranc Plating System are contoured to match the convexity of the Lisfranc joint.

Dual ray plates are available for either the 1st and 2nd metatarsals, or the 2nd and 3rd metatarsals | Single ray options include a Slanted T-Plate, a Slanted Straight Plate and a Clover Plate | Each of these plates have several individual size options to fit different sized patients

Jones Fractures are understood to be technically challenging procedures which often require a surgeon to attempt multiple passes of the K-wire into the metatarsal to achieve the desired trajectory. The soft tissue presence as well as the lateral malleolus make positioning of the K-wire very difficult.

Straight guides pushed against the side of the foot have a tendency to slip and point the K-wire medially positioning it into the 3rd or 4th metatarsal.

The patent pending PRECISION® Jones Curved K-wire Guide positions a nitinol K-wire into the center of the intramedullary canal, simplifying placement which may reduce intraoperative fluoroscopy time.

The PRECISION® Jones Curved K-Wire guide allows the surgeon to assess the position of the wire in both an AP and Lateral view prior to drilling which limits the chance of malpositioning of the K-wire. The PRECISION® Jones Curved K-wire Guide aligns with the proximal tuberosity of the 5th metatarsal while avoiding impingement of the lateral malleolus.
• Allows for alignment parallel to the long axis of the bone
• Allows surgeon’s hand to be positioned away from crowded lateral structures of the foot

The Nitinol wire will flex through the guide and then straighten and follow the path of least resistance down the intramedullary canal.
• This limits the chance of the K-wire broaching the cortex and minimizes the chance of missing the canal and “swiss cheesing” the bone which can significantly increase surgical time
