Learning Objectives
- Explain how percutaneous osseointegrated implants (POIs) influence load transfer and initiate strain-adaptive bone remodeling processes that impact implant stability.
- Describe the significance of reporting periprosthetic bone changes in the context of the Intraosseous Transcutaneous Amputation Prosthesis (ITAP) clinical trial and its implications for long-term fixation outcomes.
Course Description
Radiographic Evidence of Bone Changes Around Intraosseous Transcutaneous Amputation Prosthesis: An 11-Year Retrospective Cohort Study (JPO036-4b)
Percutaneous Osseointegrated Implants (POIs) influence the load transfer path to the host bone. In turn, mechano-regulatory processes (strain adaptive bone remodeling) drive periprosthetic bone changes that influence implant stability and fixation outcome. These bone changes have not yet been reported for the Intraosseous Transcutaneous Amputation Prosthesis (ITAP) clinical trial.
