ECA Medical continues to make orthopaedic surgery safer for patients by taking the guesswork out of tightening locking screws into plates by leveraging 39 years of experience in torque limiting. In 2014, Stoesz et al. concluded in a study that surgeon perception is not reliable at preventing and detecting screw stripping at clinical torque levels in synthetic cancellous bone.*
