The paper presents the results of numerical simulations aimed at evaluating the effectiveness of various methods of sternum fixation after sternotomy. The scope of work included the development of a numerical model of the chest of a 50-year-old man based on computed tomography images, models of three methods of sternum fixation: the "AcuTie" system, "Sternal Talon" clamps and the sternocostal plate. Based on the results of numerical simulations carried out in the ANSYS Workbench program, the effectiveness of the analyzed methods was compared.
