Kramer M, Muller C, Hermann M, Decker S, Springer A, Overmeyer L, et al.
J Mech Behav Biomed Mater . 2017 Sep; 75:558-566. PMID: 28858665
Biomechanical stimuli play a major role in fracture healing. Changing the fixation stiffness through the course of healing might accelerate bone healing and prevent healing complications. Shape memory alloy (SMA)...

Decker S, Kramer M, Marten A, Pfeifer R, Wesling V, Neunaber C, et al.
Technol Health Care . 2015 Sep; 23(4):463-74. PMID: 26409909
Background: Inverse dynamization has recently been proposed for the treatment of tibia non-unions. Nickel-titanium (NiTi) shape memory alloys (SMAs) may provide an opportunity for contactless non-invasive alteration of the stiffness...

Muller C, Pfeifer R, Meier K, Decker S, Reifenrath J, Gosling T, et al.
Biomed Res Int . 2015 Jul; 2015:652940. PMID: 26167493
Unlabelled: Nickel-titanium shape memory alloy (NiTi-SMA) implants might allow modulating fracture healing, changing their stiffness through alteration of both elastic modulus and cross-sectional shape by employing the shape memory effect...

Muller C, ElKashef T, Pfeifer R, Decker S, Neunaber C, Meier K, et al.
Int Orthop . 2014 Jul; 38(12):2551-7. PMID: 25038974
Purpose: Inadequate mechanical stimuli are a major cause for nonunions following surgery for femoral and tibial shaft fractures. Adapting fixation rigidity during the course of fracture healing requires additional surgery....

Pfeifer R, Hustedt M, Wesling V, Hurschler C, Olender G, Mach M, et al.
Med Eng Phys . 2012 Apr; 35(1):54-62. PMID: 22503481
This article shows an approach to change the properties of an orthopaedic shape memory implant within biological tissue, using contactless induction heating. Due to inducing the one way-memory effect, triggered...

Olender G, Pfeifer R, Muller C, Gosling T, Barcikowski S, Hurschler C
Ann Biomed Eng . 2011 Feb; 39(5):1546-54. PMID: 21286815
Nitinol is a promising biomaterial based on its remarkable shape changing capacity, biocompatibility, and resilient mechanical properties. Until now, very limited applications have been tested for the use of Nitinol...

J Orthop Res . 2010 Oct; 28(12):1671-6. PMID: 20973066
Shape memory orthopaedic implants made from nickel-titanium (NiTi) might allow the modulation of fracture healing, changing their cross-sectional shape by employing the shape memory effect. We aimed to show the...
