For too long, biomechanical research workers and clinicians have been considering the same problems, but looking at them from different viewpoints and failing to make use of each other's knowledge and skill. This book integrates these two areas, showing researchers how to keep their work clinically relevant while demonstrating the value of modern methods of measurement in clinical practice. The contributors, all leaders in one or both of these fields, cover fracture management, shape measurement, soft tissues and the spine, and the upper and lower limbs. This book will be of great interest to bioengineers engaged in research or clinical work, rehabilitation engineers, orthopedic surgeons, and clinicians specializing in orthopedics, rheumatology, and rehabilitation.

This book presents a fundamental basic overview of orthopedic biomechanics in sports medicine, with a special focus on the current methodologies used in modeling human joints, ligaments, and muscle forces. The first part discusses the principles and materials, including the use of finite element analysis (FEA) to analyze the stress-strain response in the implant-bone interface and design. The second part focuses on joint-specific biomechanics, highlighting the biomechanics of the knee and shoulder joints, their modeling, surgical techniques, and the clinical assessment of joint performance under various kinematic conditions resulting from different repair techniques. Written by international experts working at the cutting edge of their fields, this book is an easy-to-read guide to the fundamentals of biomechanics. It also offers a source of reference for readers wanting to explore new research topics, and is a valuable tool for orthopedic surgeons, residents, and medical students with an interest in orthopedic biomechanics.

A major part of orthopedics is the treatment of musculoskeletal diseases caused by structural disorders and mechanical breakdown of living tissue. Therefore, biomechanical consideration of static structures and dynamic mechanisms is compulsory for both diagnosis and treatment of orthopedic diseases. Previous biomechanical studies have enabled great advances in orthopedic implant technology, such as artificial joint replacement and instrumentation for spinal fusion. Consequently the importance of biomechanics is increasing more and more in daily clinical practice and development. In addition, biomaterial research into mechanical properties and tissue reactions of implant materials is certainly an important area of related study. This book is comprised of 22 papers presented at the International Seminar on Biomechanics in Orthopedics and the 17th Annual Meeting of the Japanese Society for Orthopedic Biomechanics, held in Nagoya in 1990. The volume contains full descriptions of both conventional and updated knowledge of the spine, ligaments, artificial joint replacement in the hip and knee, fracture treatment, and gait analysis, as well as biomaterials. I earnestly hope that this book will be of benefit to readers in daily clinical work and research. To close, I would like to thank profoundly the two coeditors, Prof. S.M. Perren and Mr. T. Hattori, and also a quiet supporter Mrs. J. Buchanan in Davos, for their cooperation in producing this book.

FOUR STARS from Doody's Star Ratings™ The expanded and fully updated second edition of Orthopedic Biomechanics explains the effects of mechanical influences on the musculoskeletal system and highlights the importance of biomechanical knowledge in the prevention, treatment, and rehabilitation of orthopedic injuries and disorders. Clear and concise discussion of the forces acting on bones, tendons, and ligaments facilitates a solid understanding of current and past research, complex concepts, and technical information in orthopedic biomechanics. Readers will also find practical guidance for applying their knowledge to solving actual clinical problems. The book begins by summarizing the basic principles of biomechanics and mathematical theory, including biomaterials science, vector algebra, and movement in two and three dimensions. It then moves on to the mechanical properties of musculoskeletal tissues, with chapters devoted to muscle and muscle function; the modeling of joint loads; gait analysis; and the mechanical aspects of the hip, knee, spine, shoulder, and foot. Key Features: New "Solved Problems" chapter with clinically relevant biomechanical questions and their step-by-step solutions using mathematical and mechanical reasoning New chapters on biomechanics of the foot and gait analysis Detailed descriptions of simplified model calculations for determining static and dynamic joint load-a fundamental issue in orthopedic biomechanics Essential physics and mathematics only, with limited use of complex vector equations More than 300 line illustrations References and suggestions for further reading at the end of each chapter, serving as an overview of scientific work on the topic Orthopedic Biomechanics, 2nd Edition, is an essential resource for practitioners and students of orthopedics, orthopedic surgery, prosthetics and orthotics, and physiotherapy. Comprehensive in scope but approachable in coverage, the book provides the insights and tools needed to make informed clinical decisions.

Biomechanics is often overlooked when dealing with orthopedic injuries, whether regarding prevention or treatment, and practicing surgeons and surgeons-in-training may feel overwhelmed when referring to a book with a more complicated basic science approach. In order to make the subject clinically relevant to orthopedic trauma surgery, this unique text presents numerous clinical case examples to demonstrate clearly and effectively the principles biomechanics of injury, fixation and fracture healing. Divided into five sections, the opening chapters cover the essentials of stress and strain relevant to bone and joints and how this relates to fractures and their healing, complete with illustrative case material. This case-based approach is carried throughout the book, with part two discussing biomechanical principles of external fixation for diaphyseal and periarticular fractures, limb lengthening and deformity correction. Tension band wiring for both olecranon and patella fractures are covered in part three, and both locking and nonlocking plates are illustrated in part four. The final section describes biomechanical principles of intramedullary nails for a variety of fractures and nonunions, as well as arthrodesis and lengthening. Generous radiological images and intraoperative photos provide a helpful visual enhancement for the clinical material. Making the sometimes esoteric topic of biomechanics more clinically relevant to the practicing clinician, Essential Biomechanics for Orthopedic Trauma will be an excellent resource not only for orthopedic surgeons, sports medicine specialists and trauma surgeons, but also medical and biomedical engineering students and residents.

This book addresses instruments, methodologies and diagnostic methods used to evaluate and diagnose human movement, locomotion and physical status in general. Starting from historical perspective, the idea of understanding human locomotion by applying technical measurement devices and incorporating measurement data into physical representation of gross body movement is presented and explained, an approach known as inverse dynamics. With this approach as a kind of umbrella concept, components of measurement systems including relevant signal and data processing methods are described. Modern instruments to capture body movement by measuring its kinematics, kinetics and surface electromyography (sEMG) are thus described; all systems being used dominantly—if not exclusively—in a movement analysis laboratory setting. Focusing mainly on human posture and gait, but including also examples of movement patterns from selected kinesiological and sports activities, the book attempts to present essentials of biomechanics and biomedical engineering approach to this subject matter. It illustrates how data collected and elaborated by modern engineering technology can complement traditional expert knowledge of a kinesiologist or a medical doctor. The book is applicable in the fields of sports, physical activities, as well as in medical diagnostics and rehabilitation. The examples of this book’s practical application might be in evaluation of efficiency of human gait, in evaluation of skeletal muscle fatigue in physical exercise, in biomechanical diagnostics of traumatological conditions requiring orthopaedic treatment and the like. This book can also be used in planning and executing research endeavours, particularly in a clinical context as a reference for various diagnostics procedures. It presents the lecture notes of a course carrying the same name within Medical Studies in English at the University of Zagreb for more than a decade.
