Sensor Based Detection of Implant Loosening in Total Hip Replacements (SMART-HIP)
Date du début: 1 févr. 2014, Date de fin: 31 janv. 2016,
"Ageing, sedentary behaviour,and obesity are predictors of osteoarthritis, and the combination of arthritis and obesity causes an undue stress on joints, and when conservative treatments no longer yield a satisfactory response, joint replacement becomes necessary. Despite the standardized procedures, a significant share of total joint replacements fail because the prosthesis becomes loose or becau ...

Development of antibiofilm coatings for implants (COATIM)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2012, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2015,
"The aim of the SME-driven COATIM consortium is to tackle the increasing problem of infections due to biofilms, groups of microorganisms that stick together on different surfaces within the human body and escape conventional antibiotic treatment. Biofilms are typically found on medical devices like implants. The most recent generation of implants with open porosity enable fast osseointegration, bu ...

SUPERSONIC DEPOSITION OF NANOSTRUCTURED SURFACES (SUPERSONIC)
Date du début: 1 déc. 2009, Date de fin: 30 nov. 2013,
"The basic scientific and technological concept of the project is to use agglomerated nanophased powders to be transferred onto a substrate in the form a coating with very little or none change of crystal structure. This will allow to obtain nano-structured coatings with a crystal size very close to the powder one. The concept will be extended to an important breakthrough concept that is the “Sup ...
