Biomaterials in cochlear implants
The cochlear implant (CI) represents, for almost 25 years now, the gold standard in the treatment of children born deaf and for postlingually deafened adults. These devices thus constitute the greatest success story in the field of 'neurobionic' prostheses. Their (now routine) fitting in adults, and especially in young children and even babies, places exacting demands on these implants, particu...

متن کاملBiodegradable Orthopedic Implants
current treatments using nondegradable fi xation materials have proven effi cacious, tissueengineering approaches with biodegradable implants are being considered as promising future alternatives [8, 49]. One possible advantage of these systems is that biodegradable implants can be engineered to provide temporary support for bone fractures, and because they can degrade at a rate matching new ti...
متن کاملBioactive Glass Coatings for Orthopedic Metallic Implants
The objective of this work is to develop bioactive glass coatings for metallic orthopedic implants. A new family of glasses in the SiO2–Na2O–K2O–CaO–MgO–P2O5 system has been synthesized and characterized. The glass properties (thermal expansion, softening and transformation temperatures, density and hardness) are in line with the predictions of established empirical models. The optimized firing...
متن کاملStudies on Explanted Orthopedic Implants
One of the basic functions of the human body is mobility. When the mobile function can no longer be performed, a number of problems arise. Orthopaedic implants are medical devices made of one or more biocompatible materials that are placed inside the human body in order to replace the damaged parts and take over their biological functions. The purpose of this paper is to present a series of ana...
