Physiological cyclical loading simulating passive elbow movement (15 N) and using the arms to push up from a chair (450 N) were applied using an Instron materials testing machine whilst monitoring the osteotomy site with a video extensometer. Each osteotomy was repaired by one of four materials, namely, Stainless Steel Wire (7), No 2 Ethibond (3), No 5 Ethibond (5), or No 2 FiberWire (7). <\/jats:p><jats:p> There were no failures (movement of &gt; 2 mm) with stainless steel wire or FiberWire and no significant difference in the movements measured across the site of the osteotomy (p = 0.99). The No. 2 Ethibond failed at 450 N and two of the five of No. 5 Ethibond sutures had a separation of &gt; 2 mm at 450 N. <\/jats:p><jats:p> FiberWire as the tension band in this model held the reduction as effectively as stainless steel wire and may reduce the incidence of discomfort from the hardware. On the basis of our findings we suggest that a clinical trial should be undertaken <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1302\/0301-620x.92b2.22596","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2010,2,4]],"date-time":"2010-02-04T03:05:19Z","timestamp":1265252719000},"page":"315-319","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":31,"title":["The use of three types of suture and stainless steel wire tension banding for the fixation of simulated olecranon fractures"],"prefix":"10.1302","volume":"92-B","author":[{"given":"S.
