Cementless joint prostheses require adequate initial press-fitting to achieve sufficient primary stability, which is necessary for bone ingrowth and implant success. A device was developed that measured intra-operatively the stability of a hip stem in the host bone. It included an excitatory piezoel
The primary stability of cementless prostheses is critical for the long-term outcome of the operation. Surgeons are currently driven only by their experience in evaluating the extent of stem stability achieved. The aim of the present work was to develop a new device that enables the stability of a c
