Abstract

AbstractWe have developed a novel osteosynthesis plate with bone union detection using a wire's natural frequency (BUDWF) to provide the quantitative result of bone union detection. The concept for detecting bone union is measuring the rate of frequency change. The frequency is measured from sound generated from the wire attached to a modified plate. The plate is modified from a Syncera ADLER B0409.10 and attached with 0.3 mm diameter 316L stainless steel wire. The sound generation mechanism was created by PEEK and installed on the plate to generate the sound. The preliminary experiments were conducted on a Sawbones tibia composite mimic. We used the cut Sawbones to create fracture samples with a 0, 0.5, 1-, 2-, and 5-mm gap representing the fractured bone with different gap sizes and prepared uncut Sawbones as a union sample. These samples were tested five times, and the sound was recorded from a condenser microphone and analyzed. We found that the BUDWF can differentiate samples with a fracture gap above 2 mm from the union sample, as the differences in the rates of frequency change between samples with a fracture gap above 2 mm and union samples were statistically significant. However, there was a limitation that the BUDWF plate was still unable to differentiate the 0 mm fracture gap and the union sample in this study.
