The Effect of Using Coolant during Bone Drilling for Surgery Application

This final year project focus on the effect of using coolant during bone drilling for surgery application. The study includes the understanding on basic knowledge of bone drilling, method of applying coolant during bone drilling and the methodology in conducting bone drilling experiment. The comprehensive result and discussion concludes parameters that are practicable and acceptable for bone drilling applications. This study is concerned with the effect of applying coolant on the measurement of surface roughness and surface integrity of holes drilled in a cow femur bone. The difference of dry drilling and with coolant on the drilled surfaces was compared in this paper as well. Therefore, the irrigation technique during bone drilling plays an important role for regeneration of bone tissue and fast recovery for fracture bone
