“…For example, experimental studies showed that stiffer plates could bear more loading cycles because of lower plate stress, while clinical results indicated that stiffer plate constructs tended to lead to plate failures. An explanation was suggested by MacLeod et al [35] (Fig. 1 ).…”

This manuscript summarizes presentations of a symposium on key considerations in design of biomechanical models at the 2019 Basic Science Focus Forum of the Orthopaedic Trauma Association. The first section outlines the most important characteristics of a high-quality biomechanical study. The second section considers choices associated with designing experiments using finite element modeling versus synthetic bones versus human specimens. The third section discusses appropriate selection of experimental protocols and finite element analyses. The fourth section considers the pros and cons of use of biomechanical research for implant design. Finally, the fifth section examines how results from biomechanical studies can be used when clinical evidence is lacking or contradictory. When taken together, these presentations emphasize the critical importance of biomechanical research and the need to carefully consider and optimize models when designing a biomechanical study.

“…Additionally, it has been shown that plates that are more flexible lead to faster callus formation. Therefore, the variation in time with healing, [ 35 36 37 ] degeneration, corrosion, or degradation needs to be considered in some cases.…”
