What are the key design parameters of External bone fracture Ring fixators?
Size of rings according to soft tissue oedema after injury (minimum +2.0 cm);
stability of fixation of bone fragments;
possibility of their movement by fixator;
low invasiveness of surgical intervention;
possibility of early weight-bearing on affected limb;

@ Sergey S. Leonchuk
Thank you very much for your answers.I'll concern on the mentioned points..
Design parameters of conventional used tubular - pin based or circular -wire based external fixates is well established and in use for since their inception to current date.
The design parameters of newer frames like Taylor spatial frames that utilise software - computer guided functioning and adjustments are different and specific books or articles can be searched in this regard.
