Abstract
The aim of the work is the analysis of tensometric loads taking place in the bone-stabilizer system during a 14-week observation of tibial bone healing in sheep treated with the `ZESPOL` method. All variants of the ZESPOL osteosynthesis (compressive, neutralising, contact and bridging) have been evaluated, and in the case of one sheep the stabilizer was placed in an uninjured bone which was treated as so called `blind trial`. In all the cases the stabilizer was put in the medial part of the tibial bone with a distance of 15mm from the bone made by P-6-58 plate. The follow-up examination was carried out with the use of the measuring system consisted of: the ZESPOL plate with the system of folic tensometres stuck to it, a 4-canal tensometric intensifier and a computer set with the analoque-digital card installed. The data were written on the disk and then processed by the PLATE program.
