stem design

Stem design refers to the engineering and shaping of the central shaft that connects a prosthetic or medical device to the body, such as in joint replacements or implants. It’s tailored to fit securely within bones or tissues, providing stability and support while minimizing discomfort. Good stem design considers factors like materials, shape, and surface texture to promote comfort, durability, and proper load transfer. By optimizing these aspects, the stem helps ensure the device functions effectively and lasts longer, ultimately improving patient outcomes and quality of life.
