Over a period of seven years, 32 fracture patients, group 1 comprising of 20 patients and group 2 of 12 patients were studied. Group 1 was electrically stimulated while group 2 was not electrically stimulated. The process of healing was monitored as current versus number of days. The current stabilized after the union of fracture. The data was subjected to regression analysis and fitted to a FOPDT model with an error of less than 5%. An ANOVA analysis of the two groups indicated an F ratio which suggested that results are significant.}, }
