Abstract
This research proposes the low fidelity in reporting is likely due to a combination of: reporting for different specialisms, resulting in a lack of expert knowledge in certain areas and assumed knowledge in others; commercial sensitivity of design and manufacturing methods; low volume of clinical cases; and a large gap in translating research to clinical applications. This study concluded that higher fidelity in reporting methods are required when discussing the design of AM medical implants, which would allow comparisons between studies, provide evidence to support design quality, and enable evidence-based decision-making.
