Nitinol versus non-Nitinol prostheses in otosclerosis surgery: a meta-analysis
Acta Otorhinolaryngologica Italica, 2018 The aim of this study is to perform a systematic review and meta-analysis of observational studies in which hearing outcomes after primary stapes surgery have been reported. After the surgical procedure, the effectiveness of stapes surgery using nickel titanium (Nitinol) or other prostheses were systematically compared and evaluated using a meta ...

Microstructured Thin Film Nitinol for a Neurovascular Flow-Diverter [PDF]
, 2016 A cerebral aneurysm occurs as a result of a weakened blood vessel, which allows blood to flow into a sac or a ballooned section. Recent advancement shows that a new device, ‘flow-diverter’, can divert blood flow away from the aneurysm sac.

Effect of WEDM Process Parameters on Surface Morphology of Nitinol Shape Memory Alloy
Materials, 2020 Nickel–titanium shape memory alloys (SMAs) have started becoming popular owing to their unique ability to memorize or regain their original shape from the plastically deformed condition by means of heating or magnetic or mechanical loading.

The Professional Medical Journal, 2011 Stents deployed in the carotid arteries cause significant geometric changes in the vessels, influencing the flexibility and torsion characteristics of the vessels, which are aggravated by the high degree of mobility in this area of the body. The influence of these physical characteristics on carotid blood flow could influence the long term performance ...

Biocompatibility of Nitinol Stapes Prosthesis [PDF]
Otology & Neurotology, 2011 Use of the SMart piston, a nitinol-based, self-crimping prosthesis in stapes surgery may allow improved functional results because of better sound transmission properties at the incus-prosthesis interface because of the elimination of manual crimping. Possible disadvantages include thermal damage or strangulation of the incus and its mucoperiosteum or ...

Enhanced Biocompatibility of Porous Nitinol [PDF]
Journal of Materials Engineering and Performance, 2009 Porous Nitinol (PNT) has found vast applications in the medical industry as interbody fusion devices, synthetic bone grafts, etc. However, the tendency of the PNT to corrode is anticipated to be greater as compared to solid nitinol since there is a larger surface area in contact with body fluids.
