Titanium-nitride coatings on orthopaedic implants
Authors Harry Hothi, Anna Di Laura, Johann Henckel and Alister Hart, of The Royal National Orthopaedic Hospital, discuss their two published studies examining retrieved hip implants manufactured with ceramic coatings
Bone-building cells favour different orthopaedic implant designs
New orthopaedic implant devices that promote faster healing and ultimately reduce the strain on the NHS could be available in the future thanks to new research by Loughborough University engineering
Corrosion of orthopaedic implants
Corrosion of a metal is observed as a breakdown of the material over time due to a chemical or electrochemical reaction. Virtually all metal orthopaedic implants used in patients will

Authors Harry Hothi, Sean Bergiers, Johann Henckel, Anna Di Laura, John Skinner, Alister Hart, of the Royal National Orthopaedic Hospital have studied orthopaedic implants from 29 countries Joshua Jacobs,
Primitive stem cells point to new bone grafts for stubborn-to-heal fractures
Although most broken bones can be mended with a firm cast and a generous measure of tender loving care, more complicated fractures require treatments like bone grafting. Researchers at Texas
