Abstract

The invention discloses a degradable shape memory femur internal fixator which comprises a fixator body, the fixator body is made of a biodegradable shape memory material, and the phase transition temperature of the fixator body is higher than the refrigeration temperature of a medical refrigeration box and lower than the body temperature of a normal human body; and when the temperature of the fixator body is lower than the phase transition temperature, the fixator body is kept in a temporary shape for shape memory. The biodegradable shape memory material comprises the following raw materials:50-80% of polylactic acid, 0-40% of poly epsilon-caprolactone, 0-18% of a lactide-epsilon-caprolactone copolymer, 0-40% of an inorganic filler, 0-1% of a silane coupling agent, 0-1% of a coloring agent and 0-1% of white oil. The degradable shape memory material is good in air permeability and water resistance, has a memory function, and can automatically recover to the original shape when a molded fixing material is heated.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an orthopedic medical device or device, more specifically, to a degradable fracture fixation device that utilizes shape memory materials to achieve internal fixation of femoral fractures. Background technique [0002] Femoral fractures are clinically more common fractures, such as hip joint fractures (including femoral neck fractures and femoral intertrochanteric fractures), femoral shaft fractures. Femoral fractures are caused by various factors such as direct violent blows, falling from heights, and vehicle impacts; among them, the femoral neck and trochanter are the turning points of the trunk and lower limbs, and the stress is relatively concentrated, so this part is also a good place for fractures. Hip joint fractures can also occur under relatively small external forces, especially in the elderly because of osteoporosis. Due to the stretching of limb muscles and ligaments, femoral fractures often produce shorteni...
