Objective To explore the nature of micromovement and the biomechanical staging of fracture healing.Methods Through literature review and theoretical analysis, the difference in micromovement research was taken as the breakthrough point to try to provide a new understanding of the role of micromovement and the mechanical working mode in the process of fracture healing.Results The process of fracture healing is the process of callus generation and connection. The micromovement is the key to start the growth of callus, and the total amount of callus should be matched with the size of the fracture space. The strain at the fracture end is the key to determine the callus connection. The strain that can be tolerated by different tissues in the fracture healing process will limit the micromovement. According to this, the fracture healing process can be divided into the initiation period, perfusion period, contradiction period, connection period, and physiological period, i.e., the biomechanical staging of fracture healing.Conclusion Biomechanical staging of fracture healing incorporates important mechanical parameters affecting fracture healing and introduces the concepts of time and space, which helps to understand the role of biomechanics, and its significance needs further clinical test and exploration.
