Pulse electromagnetic fields in the treatment of ununited fractures and results

Abstract

18 ununited fractures were treated by electrical stimulation using pulsing electromagnetic fields between 1986-1990. An average of 11.2 months had elapsed since fracture and the use of pulsing electromagnetic fields. Union was achived in 17 cases (94. 4 per cent) in a median time of 5. 7 months. Previous or active sepsis, the age of the patient or the time since the injury did not affect the results.
