| | Improving Implant Performance through Retrieval Information (CBM 99-5) |
| | Thorough reporting on the performance of implants would allow physicians to evaluate devices, understand the clinical benefit and risks associated with medical implant treatment and prevention of disease, and advance the development of better devices and materials. | | | The objective of the conference was to assess the opportunities and challenges to developing a framework for independent research of explanted natural synthetic implants, with the ultimate objective to provide benefits to patients through implant retrieval and analysis. | | | Much can be learned of clinical end points, implant performance, and design theory, and this information will again lead to superior medical implants that benefit U.S. patients. |
