Role of mechanical factors in the evaluation of pedicle screw type spinal fixation devices Goel VK; Ebraheim NA; Biyani A; Rengachary S; Faizan ANeurol India 2005[Dec]; 53 (4): 399-407Prior to implantation, spinal implants are subjected to rigorous testing to ensure safety and efficacy. A full battery of tests for the devices may include many steps ranging from biocompatibility tests to in vivo animal studies. This paper describes some of the essential tests from a mechanical engineering perspective (e.g., motion, load sharing, bench type tests, and finite element model analyses). These protocols reflect the research experience of the past decade or so.|*Bone Screws[MESH]|Animals[MESH]|Fracture Fixation/*instrumentation[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Materials Testing[MESH]|Spinal Fractures/*surgery[MESH] |
