The effect of reaming velocity on the pressure distribution in the intramedullary cavity
نویسندگان
چکیده
The effect of reaming velocity on the pressure distribution within the bone is investigated numerically by solving the full three-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations together with the continuity equation using the finite element technique. Viscosity is also varied to obtain a pressure envelop. It was found that all the experimental data follow the same trends as the envelopes predicted by the finite element model. It was clear that an increase in either the implant insertion rate or the viscosity resulted in an increase in pressure in the intramedullary canal.

We examined the roles of methylmethacrylate (MMA) monomer and cementing technique in the formation, and haemodynamic outcome, of pulmonary fat emboli. The preparation of the femoral canal and the cementing technique were studied in four groups of adult dogs as follows: control (no preparation); lavage; cement pressurisation; and cement pressurisation after lavage. We measured the intramedullary...

Buoyancy driven heat transfer of Cu-water nanofluid in a differentially heated square cavity with an inner adiabatic square baffle at different positions is studied numerically. The left and right walls of the cavity are at temperatures of Th and Tc, respectively that Th > Tc, while the horizontal walls are insulated. The governing equations are discretized using the finite volume method while ...
متن کاملCardiopulmonary response to reamed intramedullary nailing of the femur with a traditional reaming system and a one-step reamer-irrigator-aspirator reaming system; an experimental study in pigs
Introduction There is general agreement that early internal stabilization in long bone fractures in severely injured patients is advantageous. Intramedullary reaming and nailing, however, include increased intramedullary pressure. This may cause intravasation of bone marrow contents, leading to bone marrow embolisation and altered cardiopulmonary function. Possible beneficial effects of attenua...

BACKGROUND Approximately 2 million patients in the United States annually undergo total joint arthroplasty with reaming and placement of intramedullary nails, resulting in extravasation of bone marrow and fat into the circulatory system and potentially causing fat embolism syndrome. Acute and chronic changes in mental status documented after these procedures may be related to embolic events. Th...
