Transcribed Image Text:A total hip replacement consisting of a 28 mm diameter Co-Cr femoral head articulating
against a UHMWPE cup functions in a patient for 5 years before it is removed during revision arthroplasty. You perform a detailed analysis of the
explanted cup. The articular surface of the explanted UHMWPE cup shows a change in geometry such that the cup is 0.75 mm deeper (see photo).
Radiograph of THR at the time of surgery
Assumptions:
28 mm
Patient weighs 70kg with an average load of a gate cycle of 2.5BW
Neglect creep for all questions
Assume 1 million steps per year
ANSWER COLUMN
THR at day 1
QUESTIONS
0.75 mm
THR at 5 years
Total angular motion per gait stride (hip flexion-extension-flexion OR heel strike to heel strike) is 80 degrees
Hint: Recall details of UHMWPE materials and applications in THR from Lecture 9 Notes.
Q1A: Calculate the annual volume of UHMWPE wear debris.
