Key Characteristics & Benefits

This patent discloses the following:

  • An advanced hip implant that facilitates fast tissue growth
    using electrical stimulation. This mitigates the risk of
    degeneration and necrosis.
  • The free end of the shaft of a standard hip cap encapsulates a
    pick-up coil, electrically coupled with the inner wall of the
    shaft, collectively forming an electrode.
  • A low frequency alternating current is induced in the pick-up
    coil to stimulate tissue growth and maintain the vitality of the
    bone covered by the cap.
  • By promoting angiogenesis and intensive revascularization of
    the femur neck, electromagnetic osteosti repeated stimulation “on
    demand” is possible over the lifetime of the implantmulation which
    restores the vitality of existing bone stock, and prolongs the life
    of the implant.
  • Repeated stimulation “on demand” is possible over the lifetime
    of the implant.
  • In the case of hip resurfacing, the active device stimulates
    the bone under the cap and extends the effective life of the
    prosthesis before replacement needs to be considered.
  • This device actively addresses a potential problem with hip
    resurfacing – the inherent risk of necrosis of the head of
    the femur.
  • Several CE certified products using this Magnetodyn technology
    are in clinical use.
