Use of Finite Element Analysis to Predict Type of Bone Fractures and Fracture Risks in Femur due to Osteoporosis
نویسنده
چکیده
at neck region called as Trans cervical neck fracture. Third bone shows fracture that happens at intertrochanteric line of femur bone known as Intertrochanteric fracture. The fourth bone shows the fracture that happens at sub trochanteric region named as subtrochanteric fracture, Fracture that happens at greater trochanter region shown in fifth bone is known as fracture at greater trochanter, in sixth bone fracture takes place at lesser trochanter region named as lesser trochanter fracture. These are the different types of the fractures, which generally occurs in human femur bone due to sudden and uneven forces and loads acting on the hip joint.

An investigation of the effects of osteoporosis, impact intensity and orientation on human femur injuries: a parametric finite element study
Objective: Femur is the strongest, longest and heaviest bone in the human body. Due to the great importance of femur in human body, its injury may cause large numbers of disabilities and mortality. Considering various effective parameters such as mechanical properties, geometry, loading configuration, etc. can propel the study to the trustable results.. Methods: A 3D finite element model of the...
متن کاملEconomic Analysis of Bisphosphonate Use after Distal Radius Fracture for Prevention of Hip Fracture
Background: Osteoporosis is a common condition among the elderly population, and is associated with an increased risk of fracture. One of the most common fragility fractures involve the distal radius, and are associated with risk of subsequent fragility fracture. Early treatment with bisphosphonates has been suggested to decrease the population hip fracture burden. However, there have been no p...
متن کاملPrediction of strength and strain of the proximal femur by a CT-based finite element method.
Hip fractures are the most serious complication of osteoporosis and have been recognized as a major public health problem. In elderly persons, hip fractures occur as a result of increased fragility of the proximal femur due to osteoporosis. It is essential to precisely quantify the strength of the proximal femur in order to estimate the fracture risk and plan preventive interventions. CT-based ...

Osteoporosis is a bone disease related to age, it weakens bone structure by deterioration of the trabecular architecture and decreases the cortical envelop width and increases its porosity. Hip fractures are the more recurrent consequences of osteoporosis, and are the cause of morbidity and increase the rate of mortality. The fracture risk due to osteoporosis, is undertaken with Dual-Energy X-r...

Introduction: Osteoporosis is an important health issue in the world and its prevalence is increasing. Osteoporosis is known as silent disease, because is usually diagnosed after fractures. The aim of current study was to assess the bone density in post menopause women referred to Shahid Mohammad hospital, Bandar Abbas, in 2010. Methods: This descriptive, cross sectional study was done on post ...
