Orthopaedic devices associated with adverse incidents - what does this mean

Orthopaedic devices associated with adverse incidents occur when a device is implanted or used incorrectly, when it is not suitable for the patient, or when it malfunctions due to a manufacturing defect. in some cases, these incidents can result in pain, infection, nerve damage, tissue damage, and even death.

What happens during the disease - orthopaedic devices associated with adverse incidents

The pathogenesis of orthopaedic device-associated adverse incidents is multi-factorial. poor design and manufacturing of the device, inadequate patient selection, inappropriate patient preparation, incorrect implantation technique, and inadequate postoperative care can all contribute to adverse incidents. in addition, patient-specific factors such as age, activity level, and underlying medical conditions can increase the risk of device failure.
