Bone Repair Biomaterials


Description: Bone repair is a fundamental part of the rapidly expanding medical care sector and has benefited from many recent technological developments. This unique book provides a comprehensive review of the materials science, engineering principles and recent advances in this important area. The first part of the book reviews the fundamentals of bone repair and regeneration. Further chapters discuss the science and properties of biomaterials used for bone repair such as metals, and biocomposites. The final set of chapters analyse device considerations such as implant lifetime, failure, applications and ethics of bone repair biomaterials.


Contents:
Part 1 Introduction: Challenges of bone repair
- Bone anatomy, physiology and adaptation to mechanical loading
- Bone repair and regeneration
- Biomechanical aspects of bone repair.
Part 2 Biomaterials: Properties and characterisation of bone repair materials
- Metals as bone repair materials
- Ceramics as bone repair materials
- Polymers for bone repair
- Composite biomaterials for bone repair
- Cements as bone repair materials
- Bioactive polymer coatings to improve bone repair
- Long-term performance and failure of orthopaedic devices.
Part 3 Clinical applications: Using bone repair materials in orthopaedic surgery
- Bone tissue engineering
- Retrieval and analysis of orthopaedic implants
- Ethical issues in bone repair and bone tissue engineering.
