Vibration transmittance measures sternotomy stability – a preliminary study in human cadavers
Abstract Background Stability is essential for the normal healing of a sternotomy. Mechanical vibration transmittance may provide a new means of early detection of diastasis in the sternotomy and thus enable the prevention of further complications. We sought to confirm that vibration transmittance d...
