The invention entails metal alloy mono and poly-filament wire reinforced carbon fiber plating system for the fixation of skeletal fractures and osteotomies with electrical bone stimulation. For example, in some embodiments, systems and methods comprise a bone stimulation device by generating an electrical current from an implanted power pack, which travels through wire wrapped in the transverse/perpendicular plane around the mono-poly filament wires within the carbon fiber plate, creating an electromagnetic field. Such systems and methods find use in delayed or non-union events of bone and also in patients with acute bone fractures whom also suffer from other comorbidities predisposing the osteotomy or fracture to a non-union event.
A device for use in skeletal fixation, comprising:
An invasive electric stimulation system, comprising:
