Download or read book The Biomechanics and Retrieval Analysis of Orthopaedic Trauma Devices written by Meredith Perkins and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 15 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This chapter begins with providing an overview of the history and development of various orthopedic trauma devices, including dynamic compression plates, limited contact dynamic compression plates, and intramedullary nails. It then transitions into a discussion of the specific biomechanical properties of each design and how this allows each device to perform its necessary task effectively, as well has how these properties could potentially lead to failure. Understanding the biomechanics of each device may be helpful when choosing which devices best address the fracture being dealt with. Although all orthopedic trauma devices have a finite lifespan, this chapter documents the advantages and shortcomings of each device in order to help understand which devices may be most useful in specific types of fractures. Finally, retrieval studies for various devices are summarized to better understand the modes of failure for each type of device. Learning from failures and studying these retrievals may help to better understand these devices and could lead to development of better devices in the future.

Download or read book Essential Biomechanics for Orthopedic Trauma written by Brett D. Crist and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-02-29 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Biomechanics is often overlooked when dealing with orthopedic injuries, whether regarding prevention or treatment, and practicing surgeons and surgeons-in-training may feel overwhelmed when referring to a book with a more complicated basic science approach. In order to make the subject clinically relevant to orthopedic trauma surgery, this unique text presents numerous clinical case examples to demonstrate clearly and effectively the principles biomechanics of injury, fixation and fracture healing. Divided into five sections, the opening chapters cover the essentials of stress and strain relevant to bone and joints and how this relates to fractures and their healing, complete with illustrative case material. This case-based approach is carried throughout the book, with part two discussing biomechanical principles of external fixation for diaphyseal and periarticular fractures, limb lengthening and deformity correction. Tension band wiring for both olecranon and patella fractures are covered in part three, and both locking and nonlocking plates are illustrated in part four. The final section describes biomechanical principles of intramedullary nails for a variety of fractures and nonunions, as well as arthrodesis and lengthening. Generous radiological images and intraoperative photos provide a helpful visual enhancement for the clinical material. Making the sometimes esoteric topic of biomechanics more clinically relevant to the practicing clinician, Essential Biomechanics for Orthopedic Trauma will be an excellent resource not only for orthopedic surgeons, sports medicine specialists and trauma surgeons, but also medical and biomedical engineering students and residents.

This book was released on 2004-07-02 with total page 694 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Current clinical orthopedic practice requires practitioners to have extensive knowledge of a wide range of disciplines from molecular biology to bioengineering and from the application of new methods to the evaluation of outcome. The biomechanics of and biomaterials used in orthopedics have become increasingly important as the possibilities have increased to treat patients with foreign material introduced both as optimized osteosynthesis after trauma and as arthroplasties for joint diseases, sequelae of trauma or for tumor treatment. Furthermore, biomaterial substitutes are constantly being developed to replace missing tissue. Biomechanics and Biomaterials in Orthopedics provides an important update within this highly important field. Professor Dominique Poitout has collected a series of high-quality chapters by globally renowned researchers and clinicians. Under the auspices of the International Society of Orthopaedic Surgery and Traumatology (SICOT) and International Society of Orthopaedic and Traumatology Research (SIROT), this book now provides permanent and specific access to the considerable international knowledge in the field of locomotor system trauma and disease treatment using the novel bioengineering solutions.

Download or read book Orthopedic Implant Retrieval and Analysis Study written by AJT Clemow and published by . This book was released on 1979 with total page 17 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The incidence and degree of corrosion of a series of Type 316L stainless steel orthopedic internal fixation devices has been investigated. A complete metallurgical analysis and clinical analysis was performed for each case. Seventeen devices were studied, consisting of a total of 91 components, of which in excess of 95 percent exhibited either fretting or crevice corrosion or a combination of both. This localized attack was observed in all cases. A corrosion index was defined for each component, and this was related to the length of time in situ and to the clinical reason for removal of the device. No correlation between degree of corrosion and time in situ was observed. Crevice and fretting corrosion were found to be two separate mechanisms, but may act simultaneously and are often indistinguishable from each other at low magnifications.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Retrieval and Analysis of Orthopaedic Implants: Proceedings of a Symposium Held at the National Bureau of Standards, Gaithersburg, Maryland, March 5, 1976 Welcome to the National Bureau of Standards (nbs) and to the symposium on Retrieval and Analysis of Orthopaedic Implants. We at nbs are pleased to cosponsor this symposium with the Food and Drug Administration, the American Society for Testing and Materials, the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, the Orthopaedic Surgical Manufacturers Association, and the Society for Biomaterials. The list of organizations is long and impressive, to be sure. I believe, however, that this multiple sponsorship attests to both the importance of the subject and the fact that a wide variety of competences and interests must be brought to gether if we are to reach our common goal of improving the performance of orthopedic implants, I personally am pleased to appear before you to launch this symposium aimed at achieving this goal. I have felt for many years that nbs could make unique contributions by helping to provide standards, test methods, and data that would enable manufacturers, surgeons, and agencies of Government to operate from common bases. My deputy, Dr. Emanuel Horowitz, and I have sought to build a program to meet the needs of the user community. Dr. Horowitz has been directly involved in many aspects of orthopedic implant development and has worked toward accelerating the development of much needed standards. Our conviction that nbs could make a unique contribution in this area is based upon a number of factors: our long tradi tion for work in failure analysis; our long association with the American Dental Association; and our multidisciplinary laboratory built around competences in chemistry and physics and focused on the properties of metals, ceramics, and polymers. Though we believe that our competence base could be effectively utilized in improving the performance of implant materials, we are very mindful of the fact that standards and measurements are only a part of the problem. For this reason we have sought from the very first to operate through such groups and agencies as those represented here today.

Download or read book Musculoskeletal Disorders and the Workplace written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2001-05-24 with total page 510 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every year workers' low-back, hand, and arm problems lead to time away from jobs and reduce the nation's economic productivity. The connection of these problems to workplace activities-from carrying boxes to lifting patients to pounding computer keyboards-is the subject of major disagreements among workers, employers, advocacy groups, and researchers. Musculoskeletal Disorders and the Workplace examines the scientific basis for connecting musculoskeletal disorders with the workplace, considering people, job tasks, and work environments. A multidisciplinary panel draws conclusions about the likelihood of causal links and the effectiveness of various intervention strategies. The panel also offers recommendations for what actions can be considered on the basis of current information and for closing information gaps. This book presents the latest information on the prevalence, incidence, and costs of musculoskeletal disorders and identifies factors that influence injury reporting. It reviews the broad scope of evidence: epidemiological studies of physical and psychosocial variables, basic biology, biomechanics, and physical and behavioral responses to stress. Given the magnitude of the problem-approximately 1 million people miss some work each year-and the current trends in workplace practices, this volume will be a must for advocates for workplace health, policy makers, employers, employees, medical professionals, engineers, lawyers, and labor officials.
