Please fill in this anonymous survey about your experiences of having an Intramedullary Nail (IM Nail or Rod). As there seems to be very little information available on this procedure on the internet, the purpose of this survey is to collect a mixture of quantitative and qualitative data about personal experiences of having it and the recovery period.

The collated information and analysis will then be shared for all to see. If you have any questions about this survey or would prefer to have it posted to you or conducted over the telephone, please email Jake McMillan: Jake.T.McMillan@gmail.com
