CRIS Current Research Information System
IRIS è la soluzione IT che facilita la raccolta e la gestione dei dati relativi alle attività e ai prodotti della ricerca. Fornisce a ricercatori, amministratori e valutatori gli strumenti per monitorare i risultati della ricerca, aumentarne la visibilità e allocare in modo efficace le risorse disponibili.
EnglishBackground: Excessive prosthesis/bone motions and the bone strains around the acetabulum may prevent osteointegration and lead to cup loosening. These two factors depend on post-operative joint loading. We investigated how Walking (which is often simulated) and Standing-Up from seated (possibly more critical) influence the cup primary stability and periacetabular strains. METHODS: Twelve composite hemipelvises were used in two test campaigns. Simplified loading conditions were adopted to simulate Walking and Standing-Up. For each motor task, a single-direction force was applied in load packages of increasing amplitude. Stable and unstable uncemented cups were implanted. Digital image correlation was used to measure implant/bone motions (three-dimensional translations and rotations, both permanent and inducible), and the strain distribution around the acetabulum. FINDINGS: When stable implants were tested, higher permanent cranial translations were found during Walking (however the resultant migrations were comparable with Standing-Up); higher rotations were found for Standing-Up. When unstable implants were tested, motions were 1-2 order of magnitude higher. Strains increased significantly from stable to unstable implants. The peak strains were in the superior aspect of the acetabulum during Walking and in the superior-posterior aspect of the acetabulum and at the bottom of the posterior column during Standing-Up. INTERPRETATION: Different cup migration trends were caused by simulated Walking and Standing-Up, both similar to those observed clinically. The cup mobilization pattern depended on the different simulated motor tasks. Pre-clinical testing of new uncemented cups could include simulation of both motor tasks. Our study could also translate to indication of what tasks should be avoided.
