bone screw
The bone screw is a medical device designed to stabilize and secure fractures, fusions, and other orthopedic repairs. Its main functions include holding bone fragments together, providing support for injured bones, and enabling proper alignment during the healing process. Technological features of the bone screw include a threaded design that allows for secure insertion into the bone, a variety of materials such as stainless steel or titanium for durability and compatibility with the human body, and a range of sizes to accommodate different anatomical needs. Applications of the bone screw are widespread in orthopedic surgeries, including spinal procedures, trauma care, and joint replacements.
