 The hypothesis of this study is that PEMF treatment will improve odontoid fracture healing, compared with standard conservative care, in subjects 50 years of age and over diagnosed with Type II odontoid fractures, and this effect will be evident by 6 months post-injury. Subjects will be assessed for the presence of a Type II odontoid fracture by X-ray, MRI and CT scan. Subjects meeting eligibility criteria will be randomized in a 2:1 ratio active: placebo control to either the active or control device for 4 hours a day for 6 months. X-rays will be collected at 6 weeks, and at 3, 6 and 12 months to assess the fracture healing process, with flexion-extension x-rays collected at 3, 6 and 12 months. A CT scan will be performed at 6 months to confirm healing. Quality of Life measures SF-36, VAS neck pain scale, NDI will be collected at all visits 6 weeks, 3, 6 and 12 months. Study subjects will receive either an active Orthofix Cervical-Stim Model 2205OD or an inactive placebo Orthofix Cervical-Stim Model 2205OD device.
