Price and the actual weight it can hold has not been released yet. It will be called the Precise MAX and a few select clinics in the USA will receive them first around Nov 2023 (dr d, and Paley, and probably a few more). Early 2024 it will start rolling out to more clinics.
I'm guessing it's going to be 5-10k more than what the clinic charges for Precise 2.2 right now.
Quote from: Yau on June 13, 2023, 05:50:48 AMThe material of PRECICE MAX is titanium. I was told it is weight bearing nail🤔. The staff of Paley Institute replied me I can book a surgery in November this year, but I don’t want to be the first one.
If this is the case, we needn't expect much of a jump in the amount of weight the new nail can bear. The current precise nails are already composed of titanium.
Unless the manufacturer somehow manages to encapsulate a material that is able to bear more weight than titanium with the latter.
So since precise 2.2 and stryde are both made by Nuvasive does this mean Stryde was basically Precise 3.0?
Quote from: TheDream on June 12, 2023, 05:15:03 PMCan you actually walk without a walker with Stryde (assuming it does return with the same properties) during lengthening (assuming you’re average weight)?
Quote from: Kaladin on June 13, 2023, 12:26:47 AMcurious about this aswell, I plan to do the procedure either later this year or early next year so if I can get the stryde nail and be able to walk around faster after the procedure, that would be great
With Stryde, as long as you didn't have the thinnest diameter nail, it was fully weight bearing. I switched from walker to cane about two weeks after surgery. The cane is for balance and stability and isn't weight bearing.

Precise-2 is also made from titanium and it is non-weight bearing...so what's going to be the difference? I don't trust Paley, he was the first to use stryde and he kept his mouth shut until the stryde problem became widely aparrent in other countries by other doctors. I am sure he knew the problem much-much earlier but chose to not say anything that could make him lose a few extra thousands of dollars!

you are nuts! why would paley risk his reputation and his tens of millions of dollars net worth for the chance to get sued to hell if what youre saying is true?
imagine if what youre saying is true and it came out that he hid side effect data from the public for the stryde nail, he would be destroyed!
i mean come on, are you even hearing yourself?
