The joint fluid mechanics and transport of wear particles in the prosthetic hip joint were analyzed for subluxation and flexion motion using computational fluid dynamics (CFD). The entire joint space including a moving capsule boundary was considered. It was found that particles suspended in the joint space are drawn into the joint gap between prosthesis cup and head during subluxation, which was also documented by Lundberg et al. (2007; Journal of Biomechanics 40, 1676-1685), however, wear particles remain in the joint gap. Wear particles leave the joint gap during flexion and can finally migrate to the proximal boundaries including the acetabular bone, where the particle deposition can cause osteolysis according to the established literature. Thus, the present study supports the theory of polyethylene wear particle induced osteolysis of the acetabular bone as a major factor in the loosening of hip prosthesis cups.  相似文献

It has previously been shown that the articulation of the scaphotrapezio-trapezoidal (STT) joint can be modeled such that the trapezoid and trapezium are tightly linked and move together on a single path relative to the scaphoid during all directions of wrist motion. The simplicity of such a model is fascinating, but it leaves unanswered why two distinct carpal bones would have a mutually articulating surface if there were no motion between them, and how such a simplistic model of STT joint motion translates into the more complex global carpal motion. We performed an in vivo analysis of the trapezoids and trapeziums of 10 subjects (20 wrists) using a markerless bone registration technique. In particular, we analyzed the centroid spacing, centroid displacements, kinematics, and postures of the trapezoid and trapezium relative to the scaphoid. We found that, on a gross level, the in vivo STT motion was consistent with that reported in vitro. In addition, we found that the magnitude of trapezoid and trapezium motion was dependent upon the direction of wrist motion. However, we also found that when small rotations and displacements are considered there were small but statistically significant relative motions between the trapezoid and trapezium (0.4 mm in maximum flexion, 0.3 mm in radial deviation and at least 10 degrees in flexion extension and ulnar deviation) as well as slight off-path rotations. The results of this study indicate that the STT joint should be considered a mobile joint with motions more complex than previously appreciated.  相似文献

The implantation of a total hip prosthesis is an operation which is performed frequently due to advanced hip joint damage both in humans and in veterinary medicine in dogs. The long-term result of a hip prosthesis is mainly determined by aseptic loosening of the prosthesis; among other causes, abrasion particles of the tribological pairing are responsible for the loosening. For the analysis of the surface stresses with different tribological pairings, a finite element model was generated which was based on the CAD data of a commercial total hip prosthesis. After transmission of a physiological force in the components of the three tribological pairings ceramic/polyethylene, ceramic/ceramic and metal/polyethylene, stresses were calculated. Stresses in the ceramic/ceramic tribological pairings were conspicuously higher than in the other material pairings. In the future adapted prostheses have to be developed that ensure optimal friction and absorption characteristics of the components.  相似文献

The life span of a total hip prosthesis is one of the main points on which the long-term success of arthroplasties depends. It is, by now, widely recognized that hip arthroplasty failure is mainly due to the aseptic loosening resulting from the presence of wear debris forming at the contact interface between the femoral head and the cup of the acetabulum. The size of these particles varies from a few micrometers to some tens of micrometers or more. The main aim of this study was therefore to investigate the formation of debris in the microscopic size range. For this purpose, a numerical study was carried out on various mechanisms leading to plastic deformations, which can lead to damage and wear in material. Numerical analyses were performed with a laboratory software program LMGC90, on the evolution of the plastic strains involved in various wear mechanisms on the microscopic scale.  相似文献

In this paper, we propose a method to estimate the parameters of a double hinge model of the trapeziometacarpal joint (TMC) by MRI-based motion analysis. The model includes two non-orthogonal and non-intersecting rotation axes accounting for flexion–extension (F–E) and adduction–abduction (A–A). We evaluated the quality of the estimated model parameters in the prediction of the relative motion of the first metacarpal bone with respect to the trapezium. As a result, we obtained that: (a) the estimated location and orientation of the F–E and A–A axes were in agreement with previous in vitro studies, (b) the motion of the first metacarpal predicted by the 2 degrees of freedom (2DoF) model exhibits a maximum surface distance error in the range of about 2 mm and (c) four thumb postures at the boundary of the TMC range of motion are sufficient to provide a good estimation of the 2DoF TMC kinematic model and good reproducibility (~1.7 mm) of the real thumb motion at TMC level.  相似文献

The tibial component of current knee prostheses made of ultra high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) has a high degree of wear that causes knee inflammation, prosthesis loosening and subsequent replacement in not more than 15 years. In order to know which UHMWPE material properties have more influence on wear, a steady state lubrication model with non-Newtonian synovial fluid has been studied through numerical solution. The results show that UHMWPE has a very high elastic modulus that makes difficult a well lubricated artificial joint and induces the formation of very thin lubricating films between the moving surfaces with the same magnitude of roughness components. This study shows that the use of deformable porous materials in the tibial component could cause the lubricating film thickness to be higher than the average roughness and the pressure levels to be lower than the one predicted for UHMWPE. These two facts imply friction and wear reduction.  相似文献

In order to increase the lifetime of the total hip endoprosthesis, it is necessary to understand mechanisms leading to its failure. In this work, we address volumetric wear of the artificial cup, in particular the effect of its inclination with respect to the vertical. Volumetric wear was calculated by using mathematical models for resultant hip force, contact stress and penetration of the prosthesis head into the cup. Relevance of the dependence of volumetric wear on inclination of the cup (its abduction angle ?A) was assessed by the results of 95 hips with implanted endoprosthesis. Geometrical parameters obtained from standard antero-posterior radiographs were taken as input data. Volumetric wear decreases with increasing cup abduction angle ?A. The correlation within the population of 95 hips was statistically significant (P = 0.006). Large cup abduction angle minimises predicted volumetric wear but may increase the risk for dislocation of the artificial head from the cup in the one-legged stance. Cup abduction angle and direction of the resultant hip force may compensate each other to achieve optimal position of the cup with respect to wear and dislocation in the one-legged stance for a particular patient.  相似文献

Sensitivity to chromium, cobalt, nickel, molybdenum, vanadium, and titanium was studied by patch tests in 50 patients who had received total joint replacements. Nineteen (38%) were sensitive to one or more of the metals. In 23 patients non-traumatic failure of the prosthesis had occurred, and 15 of these patients were sensitive to metal. Out of 27 patients with no evidence of prosthesis loosening, four were sensitive to nickel and cobalt or nickel only. Dermatological reactions occurred in 13 patients after surgery; in only eight, however, was there evidence of metal sensitivity. These findings indicate that metal-on-metal total joint replacements may sensitise the patient to metals contained in the prosthesis. Although there is a high incidence of prosthesis failure among metal-sensitive patients it remains uncertain whether the loosening causes the sensitisation or vice versa.  相似文献

Background  

Among other causes the long-term result of hip prostheses in dogs is determined by aseptic loosening. A prevention of prosthesis complications can be achieved by an optimization of the tribological system which finally results in improved implant duration. In this context a computerized model for the calculation of hip joint loadings during different motions would be of benefit. In a first step in the development of such an inverse dynamic multi-body simulation (MBS-) model we here present the setup of a canine hind limb model applicable for the calculation of ground reaction forces.  相似文献

A hip joint simulator was developed to analyse the mechanism of loosening of cementless artificial hip cups. The machine induces vibrating motions and asymmetrical tilt shock loadings of the artificial cup. On measuring the primary stability of threaded cups, the simulation tests performed on pelvis substitute models, and animal and human acetabula failed to show any loosening of threaded cups fixed in place with a screw-in torque of more than 10 Nm. Instable cups became loose all the sooner, the lower the preload between the cup and femoral head. This demonstrates the importance of both the screw-in torque of the cup and the training status of the periarticular muscles.  相似文献

After total hip replacement (THR) impingement of the implant components causes shear stresses at the acetabular implant-bone interface. In the current study the finite element method (FEM) was applied to analyse the shear stresses at a fully bonded implant-bone interface assuming total ingrowth of the cup. The FE model of a press-fit acetabular component and the proximal part of the femoral component incorporates non-linear material and large sliding contact. The model was loaded with a superior-medial joint load of 435 N simulating a two-legged stance. Starting at initial impingement, the femoral component was medially rotated by 20 degrees . The peak tilting shear stress of -2.6 MPa at the impingement site takes effect towards the pole of the cup. The torsional shear stress at the impingement site is zero. On each side of the impingement site, there are extrema of torsional shear stress reaching -1.8 and 1.8 MPa, respectively. The global peak shear stress during impingement may indicate a possible starting point for cup loosening. The pattern of the torsional shear stresses suggests that besides the symmetric lever-out, an additional asymmetrical tilting of the cup occurs that can be explained by the orientation of the applied joint load.  相似文献

When using symmetrical gaits, terrestrial digitigrade monkeys adopt less digitigrade, i.e., more palmigrade-like, hand postures as they move with faster speeds. Accordingly, it appears that, in contrast to other mammals, digitigrady is unrelated to cursoriality in primates. However, researchers have not documented the effects of speed on distal forelimb kinematics in faster asymmetrical gaits, i.e., galloping, when ground reaction forces are typically increased owing to the decreased number of contact points during a stride, combined with higher speed. Thus, it remains possible that primates use digitigrade hand postures during these higher-speed asymmetrical gaits. We investigated 3D angles in the wrist joint and metacarpophalangeal joint of 2 habitually digitigrade terrestrial monkeys, Erythrocebus patas and Papio anubis, across a large range of walking and galloping speeds on a motorized treadmill. Nonparametric analyses reveal that angles, and therefore hand postures, are not different at the subject’s walk-gallop transition. Regression analyses show that when walking, digitigrade postures are adopted at slow speeds and more palmigrade-like postures are adopted at fast speeds. Contrary to expectations, there is little change in hand postures across galloping speeds; both subjects maintained palmigrade-like hand postures with substantial joint yield and reextension during support. These results indicate that the hands are always less digitigrade at faster speeds because the joints of the distal forelimb cannot resist the higher ground reaction forces that accompany these higher speed gaits.  相似文献

Glenoid component loosening is the dominant cause of failure in total shoulder arthroplasty. It is presumed that loosening in the glenoid is caused by high stresses in the cement layer. Several anchorage systems have been designed with the aim of reducing the loosening rate, the two major categories being "keeled" fixation and "pegged" fixation. However, no three-dimensional finite element analysis has been performed to quantify the stresses in the cement or to compare the different glenoid prosthesis anchorage systems. The objective of this study was to determine the stresses in the cement layer and surrounding bone for glenoid replacement components. A three-dimensional model of the scapula was generated using CT data for geometry and material property definition. Keeled and pegged designs were inserted into the glenoid, surrounded by a 1-mm layer of bone cement. A 90 deg arm abduction load with a full muscle and joint load was applied, following van der Helm (1994). Deformations of the prosthesis, stresses in the cement, and stresses in the bone were calculated. Stresses were also calculated for a simulated case of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in which bone properties were modified to reflect that condition. A maximum principal stress-based failure model was used to predict what quantity of the cement is at risk of failure at the levels of stress computed. The prediction is that 94 percent (pegged prosthesis) and 68 percent (keeled prosthesis) of the cement has a greater than 95 percent probability of survival in normal bone. In RA bone, however, the situation is reversed where 86 percent (pegged prosthesis) and 99 percent (keeled prosthesis) of the cement has a greater than 95 percent probability of survival. Bone stresses are shown to be not much affected by the prosthesis design, except at the tip of the central peg or keel. It is concluded that a "pegged" anchorage system is superior for normal bone, whereas a "keeled" anchorage system is superior for RA bone.  相似文献

Aseptic loosening from polyethylene wear debris is the leading cause of failure for metal-on-polyethylene total hip implants. Third-body debris ingress to the bearing space results in femoral head roughening and acceleration of polyethylene wear. How third-body particles manage to enter the bearing space between the closely conforming articulating surfaces of the joint is not well understood. We hypothesize that one such mechanism is from convective fluid transport during subluxation of the total hip joint. To test this hypothesis, a three-dimensional (3D) computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model was developed and validated, to quantify fluid ingress into the bearing space during a leg-cross subluxation event. The results indicated that extra-articular joint fluid could be drawn nearly to the pole of the cup with even very small separations of the femoral head (<0.60mm). Debris suspended near the equator of the cup at the site of maximum fluid velocity just before the subluxation began could be transported to within 11 degrees from the cup pole. Larger head diameters resulted in increased fluid velocity at all sites around the entrance to the gap compared to smaller head sizes, with fluid velocity being greatest along the anterosuperolateral cup edge, for all head sizes. Fluid pathlines indicated that suspended debris would reach similar angular positions in the bearing space regardless of head size. Increased inset of the femoral head into the acetabular cup resulted both in higher fluid velocity and in transport of third-body debris further into the bearing space.  相似文献

A lack of initial stability of the fixation is associated with aseptic loosening of the tibial components of cementless knee prostheses. With sufficient stability after surgery, minimal relative motion between the prosthesis and bone interfaces allows osseointegation to occur thereby providing a strong prosthesis-to-bone biological attachment. Finite element modelling was used to investigate the bone–prosthesis interface micromotion and the relative risk of aseptic loosening. It was anticipated that by prescribing different joint loads representing gait and other activities, and the consideration of varying tibial–femoral contact points during knee flexion, it would influence the computational prediction of the interface micromotion. In this study, three-dimensional finite element models were set up with applied loads representing walking and stair climbing, and the relative micromotions were predicted. These results were correlated to in-vitro measurements and to the results of prior retrieval studies. Two load conditions, (i) a generic vertical joint load of 3×body weight with 70%/30% M/L load share and antero-posterior/medial-lateral shear forces, acted at the centres of the medial and lateral compartments of the tibial tray, and (ii) a peak vertical joint load at 25% of the stair climbing cycle with corresponding antero-posterior shear force applied at the tibial–femoral contact points of the specific knee flexion angle, were found to generate interface micromotion responses which corresponded to in-vivo observations. The study also found that different loads altered the interface micromotion predicted, so caution is needed when comparing the fixation performance of various reported cementless tibial prosthetic designs if each design was evaluated with a different loading condition.  相似文献

Nonprimate terrestrial mammals may use digitigrade postures to help moderate distal limb joint moments and metapodial stresses that may arise during high‐speed locomotion with high‐ground reaction forces (GRF). This study evaluates the relationships between speed, GRFs, and distal forelimb kinematics in order to evaluate if primates also adopt digitigrade hand postures during terrestrial locomotion for these same reasons. Three cercopithecine monkey species (Papio anubis, Macaca mulatta, Erythrocebus patas) were videotaped moving unrestrained along a horizontal runway instrumented with a force platform. Three‐dimensional forelimb kinematics and GRFs were measured when the vertical force component reached its peak. Hand posture was measured as the angle between the metacarpal segment and the ground (MGA). As predicted, digitigrade hand postures (larger MGA) are associated with shorter GRF moment arms and lower wrist joint moments. Contrary to expectations, individuals used more palmigrade‐like (i.e. less digitigrade) hand postures (smaller MGA) when the forelimb was subjected to higher forces (at faster speeds) resulting in potentially larger wrist joint moments. Accordingly, these primates may not use their ability to alter their hand postures to reduce rising joint moments at faster speeds. Digitigrady at slow speeds may improve the mechanical advantage of antigravity muscles crossing the wrist joint. At faster speeds, greater palmigrady is likely caused by joint collapse, but this posture may be suited to distribute higher GRFs over a larger surface area to lower stresses throughout the hand. Thus, a digitigrade hand posture is not a cursorial (i.e. high speed) adaptation in primates and differs from that of other mammals. Am J Phys Anthropol 2010. © 2009 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.  相似文献
