Dual Motor Drill Continuously Measures Drilling Energy to Calculate Bone Density and Screw Pull-out Force in Real Time

INTRODUCTION: Low bone density complicates the surgical management of fractures. Screw stripping in osteoporotic bone leads to decreased fixation strength and weakening of the fixation construct. If low density could be detected during drilling, augmentation may be performed to prevent screw strippi...
