Abstract
A device for forcibly inserting a surgical implant into a receiving bone (), by impaction, comprising an impactor () which exerts an impact force on the implant and is associated with at least one sensor (). The sensor () measures the deformation of the impactor (), and provides a measurement signal representing the temporal variation of the deformation during an impact. The sensor () is connected to a processing unit () configured to calculate, on the basis of the temporal variation of the deformation of the impactor () during the impact, an indicator representative of the level of contact between the implant and the receiving bone ().
