Early Application of Pulsed Electromagnetic Field in the Treatment of Postoperative Delayed Union
April 9, 2012 updated by: Jin XIONG, The Affiliated Nanjing Drum Tower Hospital of Nanjing University Medical School
Phase 4 Study of Early Applied Pulsed Electromagnetic Field in the Treatment of Postoperative Delayed Union of Long-bone Fractures
The investigators hypothesized that early applied pulsed electromagnetic field treatment on delayed union might lead to increased rate of fracture union and shortened period of treatment.
