Abstract
In a new external fi xation system for tibial fractures, accurate reduction was achieved with a complex \ntemporary device, the Staffordshire Orthopaedic Reduction Machine (STORM) following which the fracture \nwas fi xed using a simple but mechanically sophisticated fi xator (IOS). The fi xator is designed to allow \ncontrolled bending to optimise movement at the fracture site for callus growth. Ideal mechanical properties \nare approached: elastic return is to the reduced position; epicentric placement minimises shear and distraction \non weightbearing; integral healing assessment measures bending stiffness. The device is single-use.
