The role of fixator frame stiffness in the control of fracture healing. An experimental study

TL;DR: The importance of the local mechanical environment on the process of fracture healing is emphasised and the value of in vivo assessment of fracture stiffness is demonstrated as a means of monitoring mechanical events during fracture healing.
Journal ArticleDOI

General theory and principles of external fixation.

TL;DR: Improved component designs, new techniques of pin care, and the discovery of three basic concepts that govern the safe and effective application of pin and ring fixators have made external fixation the most adaptable, versatile, and gentle method for stabilizing complex injuries of soft tissue and bone.
Journal ArticleDOI

Design and performance of a fracture monitoring transducer

TL;DR: A 'clamp on' transducer has been developed which, when fitted to the support column of an external fixator, enables the stiffness of a fracture to be determined during the healing process.
Journal ArticleDOI

Twenty years experience in fracture healing measurement with strain gauges.

TL;DR: The external fixator provides a mechanical connection between the bone fragments and recording devices or power systems to record deformations occurring at the fracture site and to measure the mechanical characteristics of fracture healing in more than 500 patients.

The mechanical properties of surgical bone screws and some aspects of insertion practice.

TL;DR: This work shows that the strength of the commonly available surgical materials, assessed on a combined torque and tensile basis, is in the descending order cold-worked En58J stainless steel>cast Co-Cr-Mo>titanium 160.
Journal ArticleDOI

Force measurements in screw fixation.

TL;DR: The results showed a gradual increase in strength as diameter increased, and the hexagonal shaped imbus head proved superior to the Phillips type.
