Increasing Demand

With the increasing demand for bone implant therapy, titanium alloy has been widely used in the biomedical field. However, various potential applications of titanium alloy implants are easily hampered by their biological inertia. In fact, the interaction of the implant with tissue is critical to the success of the implant. Thus, the implant surface is modified before implantation frequently, which can not only improve the mechanical properties of the implant, but also polish up bioactivity and osseoconductivity on a cellular level. This paper aims at reviewing titanium surface modification techniques for biomedical applications. Additionally, several other significant aspects are described in detail in this article, for example, micromorphology, microstructure evolution that determines mechanical properties, as well as a number of issues concerning about practical application of biomedical implants.

Major Interest

An area of major interest in biomedical engineering is currently the development of improved materials for medical implants. Research efforts are being focused on the investigation of surface modification methods for metallic prostheses due to the fundamental bioinert character of these materials and the possible ion release from their surfaces, which could potentially induce the interfacial loosening of devices after implantation. Electron beam (EB) structuring is a novel technique to control the surface topography in metals. Electrophoretic deposition (EPD) offers the feasibility to deposit at room temperature a variety of materials on conductive substrates from colloidal suspensions under electric fields. In this work single layers of chitosan composite coatings containing titania nanoparticles (n-TiO2) were deposit by EPD on electron beam (EB) structured Ti6Al4V titanium alloy. Surface structures were designed following different criteria in order to develop specific topography on the Ti6Al4V substrate. n-TiO2 particles were used as a model particle in order to demonstrate the versatility of the proposed technique for achieving homogenous chitosan based coatings on structured surfaces. A linear relation between EPD time and deposition yield on different patterned Ti6Al4V surfaces was determined under constant voltage conditions, obtaining homogeneous EPD coatings which replicate the 3D structure (pattern) of the substrate surface. The present results show that a combination of both techniques can be considered a promising surface modification approach for metallic implants, which should lead to improved interaction between the implant surface and the biological environment for orthopaedic applications.

Antibiotic Release

Implants and materials are indispensable in trauma and orthopedic surgery. The continuous improvements of implant design have resulted in an optimized mechanical function that supports tissue healing and restoration of function. One of the still unsolved problems with using implants and materials is infection. Trauma and material implantation change the local inflammatory situation and enable bacterial survival and material colonization. The main pathogen in orthopedic infections is Staphylococcus aureus. The research efforts to optimize antimicrobial surfaces and to develop new anti-infective strategies are enormous. This mini-review focuses on the publications from 2021 with the keywords S. aureus AND (surface modification OR drug delivery) AND (orthopedics OR trauma) AND (implants OR nails OR devices). The PubMed search yielded 16 original publications and two reviews. The original papers reported the development and testing of anti-infective surfaces and materials: five studies described an implant surface modification, three developed an implant coating for local antibiotic release, the combination of both is reported in three papers, while five publications are on antibacterial materials but not metallic implants. One review is a systematic review on the prevention of stainless-steel implant-associated infections, the other addressed the possibilities of mixed oxide nanotubes. The complexity of the approaches differs and six of them showed efficacy in animal studies.
