Smart Implants 2.0

Smart material systems

Smart Implants 2.0 – Development of a novel sensor actuator FrakturversorgungsplatteProblemstellungEven today there are, individually different, sometimes significant disorders of bone and soft tissue healing. These healing disorders have serious consequences for the individual patient (pain, revision surgery, significantly extended treatment times) and represent a significant health economic burden (treatment and, if necessary, pension costs, resource consumption, incapacity for work, etc.). Individual factors play a...
