Orthopedic treatment device with electromagnetic field generator

An orthopedic treatment system, comprising:

• a body unit configured to attach to an orthopedic bone plate;
• a first electromagnetic field emitter positioned on a first extension portion extending from the body unit and a second electromagnetic field emitter positioned on a second extension portion extending from the body unit;
• the first and second electromagnetic field emitters configured to project an electromagnetic field at a therapeutic frequency for a therapeutic duration;
• the first and second electromagnetic field emitters positioned adjacent the orthopedic bone plate, the first electromagnetic field emitter positioned on the first extension portion at an angle relative to the orthopedic bone plate toward the bone fracture, the second electromagnetic field emitter positioned on the second extension portion opposite the first electromagnetic field emitter at an angle relative to the orthopedic bone plate toward the bone fracture, the angle comprising less than 180 degrees;
• wherein the electromagnetic field emitters are configured to project at least a portion of the electromagnetic field directly to the bone fracture and not through the orthopedic bone plate;
• the electromagnetic field emitters configured to project opposing electromagnetic fields, the opposing magnetic fields configured to create a Helmholtz effect that increases the magnetic field strength at an orthopedic fracture site;
• an internal power source positioned within the body unit, the internal power source configured to provide electrical current to the electromagnetic field emitters;
• and
• a receiving coil positioned within the body unit, the receiving coil configured to receive power from an external power source, the external power source positioned outside the body unit.
