Abstract
Innovations and advances in material engineering and surface engineering play a key role in developing modern, safe, durable, and biocompatible implants. The bibliometric analysis had been conducted to understand the active authors, organizations, journals, and countries involved in the research domain of “corrosion of hip- implants”. All published articles related to “corrosion of implants” from “Scopus”, were Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery and Journal of Arthroplasty. The leading organization engaged in the research regarding surface coating of hip implants was the Rush University Medical Centre. The most active author who had made valuable contributions related to the corrosion of implants was Jacobs J.J
Highlights
An engineered medical device to replace a missing or damaged biological structure is known as an implant.Different types of metals and materials are used to create implants and the most popularly used metals and alloys for bio-implants are stainless steel, cobalt-chromium alloy, and Titanium (Priyanka et al, 2014)
Stainless steel is used for diversified implanting devices and corrosion is a serious challenge associated with stainless steel implants
The following research objectives and research questions were framed for conducting bibliometric analysis systematically. 1.1 Research Objectives a) To consolidate the literature regarding corrosion of hip implants b) To find out the trends related to research in the corrosion of hip implants 1.2 Research Questions a) Who are the active researchers working on the corrosion of hip implants? b) Which are the main organizations and countries working on the corrosion of hip implants? c) Which are the main journals related to the corrosion of hip implants? 2
Summary
An engineered medical device to replace a missing or damaged biological structure is known as an implant.Different types of metals and materials are used to create implants and the most popularly used metals and alloys for bio-implants are stainless steel, cobalt-chromium alloy, and Titanium (Priyanka et al, 2014). The surface coating can be used against corrosion and wear of hip implants. Material engineering and surface engineering play a very important role in providing solutions to diversified issues connected with corrosion of hip-implants This bibliometric analysis will be a useful platform for future researchers by realizing the top researchers, organizations, and countries involved in research regarding the corrosion of hip-implants.
