Augmented screwdrivers can increase the performance of orthopaedic surgeons compared with use of normal screwdrivers

Abstract Orthopaedic screws insertion can be trivialised as a simple procedure, however it is frequently performed poorly. Limited work exists defining how well surgeons insert screws or whether augmented screwdrivers can aid surgeons to reduce stripping rates and optimise tightness. We aimed to est...
