Stories - BoneFix: A new Pathfinder project proposing a paradigm shift in fracture fixations

The EIC created a new Story | 2 weeks ago

The BoneFix project aims to deal with the socioeconomics cost of fractures. While this medical condition occurs relatively commonly, as it is caused by accidents such as falls, the currently used rigidity and highly invasive nature of metal fixators are not appropriate for every patient. Above all, metal fixators seem to be problematic when used on thin and fragile bones, that can be affected by conditions such as osteoporosis. Osteoporosis is the most common reason for broken bones among the elderly, while at the same time it can make the curing of these the fractures more complicated.
