9. Review of osteointegration proceses of multifuncion coatings on nanostructructured surface of metalliic materials with the aim to improve osteointegration between implant and bone.
The subject is taught in programs
Objectives and competences
Learns about the use of biochemical, bioactive preparations, mechanical and electromagnetic implants and preparations from human body fluids in improving the results of classical surgical techniques in the field of:
- Chronic temporal bone inflammation
- Treatment of chronic otitis media
- Hearing rehabilition in deaf people
- Closure of surgical approaches to the lateral and anterior skull-base.
Student get the basic knowledge and understanding in the field of bio engineering materials and tissues for the applications in orthopredic surgery and rechabilitation
Teaching and learning methods
Lectures, discussion workshops of presented seminars
Demonstration of already introduced biomedical methods in surgery
Presentation of existing literature
