Patient convalescing following first-in-human AO Fracture Monitor application

Sixty-five years after the AO was established to champion revolutionary internal fixation techniques that continue to achieve unprecedented results in fracture healing, its legacy of improving patient outcomes continues with the first-in-human application of the AO Fracture Monitor developed by the AO Research Institute Davos (ARI) with the AO’s innovation funding. In an important step toward regulatory approval, the safety of this implantable telemetric sensor system is now being validated in a multicenter clinical trial at four hospitals in Germany.
