A system and a method for workplace safety management are provided. The method includes: dividing a work field corresponding to the workplace into work zones; assigning an environmental indicator to each of the work zones according to environmental data of the workplace; generating AR warning image signals according to the work zones and the environmental indicator; transmitting the AR warning image signals respectively to wearable electronic devices located in the workplace; and each of the wearable electronic devices displaying an AR warning image according to the received AR warning image signal.

A sensing apparatus is applicable to a surgical instrument having a clamping portion, a linkage rod member and an operating portion. The damping portion is used to damp a target. The sensing apparatus includes a touch sensor set, a force sensor, a displacement sensor and a processing device. The touch sensor set can sense a touch signal between the target and the clamping portion. The force sensor can sense a clamping force applied on the target. The displacement sensor can measure a displacement of the linkage rod member. The processing device includes a database, a processing unit and a comparison unit. The database stores reference curves of different reference objects. The processing unit can build an actual measurement curve of the target. The comparison unit can compare the actual measurement curve with each of the reference curves to obtain one of the reference curves corresponding to the actual measurement curve.

An intervertebral implant is a porous structure formed of a plurality of metal balls, and the intervertebral implant includes a bone support area and a bone growth area. The bone support area and the bone growth area each have a plurality of connecting holes, and a porosity of the bone support area is smaller than that of the bone growth area.

Intervertebral implant

An intervertebral implant, particularly an intervertebral implant comprising local degradable hydroxyl apatite/metal block and based on a support mounting model of porous hydroxyl apatite with metal powders held for sintering and molding, guides osseous tissues to grow in porous metal and is steadily merged in upper and lower bones when the implanted hydroxyl apatite is gradually degraded in a certain period.

A supporting instrument with a modular intramedullary nail includes a plurality of intramedullary nails and a coupling module. Each intramedullary nail is in a form of a long rod and has a coupling portion arranged between two ends of the intramedullary nail and an abutting surface along a longitudinal face of the intramedullary nail. The coupling module is mounted to the coupling portions of the plurality of intramedullary nails for the abutting surfaces of the plurality of intramedullary nails to abut against each other and for assembling the plurality of intramedullary nails.

A method for treating a surface of a metal implant includes a polishing step, a grafting step and a surface modifying step. The polishing step includes polishing a surface of a metal implant to remove an uneven, natural oxide layer on the surface of the metal implant and to generate an even oxide layer on the surface of the metal implant. The grafting step includes grafting an anti-adhesion macromolecule on an outer face of the even oxide layer. A covalent bond between the anti-adhesion macromolecule and oxygen atoms on the outer face of the even oxide layer is formed. Thus, a macromolecular anti-adhesion layer on the outer face of the even oxide layer can be created. The surface modifying step includes changing a property of the surface of the metal implant with the macromolecular anti-adhesion layer by high temperature and high pressure, providing the metal implant with high hydrophilicity.
