Significance and Use4.1 This test method is designed to quantify the static
40、anddynamic characteristics of different designs of single levelspinal constructs. Wear may also be assessed for implants thatallow motion using testing medium (see 6.1) for simulating thephysiologic environment at 37C. Wear is assessed using aweight loss method in addition to dimensional analyses.We
41、ight loss is determined after subjecting the implants todynamic profiles specified in this test method. This informationwill allow the manufacturer or end user of the product toF2624 12 (2016)3understand how the specific device in question performs underthe test conditions prescribed in this test me
42、thod.4.2 This test method is intended to be applicable for singlelevel extra-discal spinal constructs. Three different types offixtures are specified for testing single level extra-discal spinalconstructs (See Fig. 2, Fig. 4, and Fig. 5). See also Table 1.4.3 Implants may be designed using a variety
43、 of materials(for example, ceramics, metals, polymers, or combinationsthereof), and it is the goal of this test method to enable acomparison of the static, dynamic, and wear properties gener-ated by these devices, regardless of material and type of device.5. Apparatus5.1 Implant ComponentsThe device
44、 may comprise a va-riety of shapes and configurations. Some known forms includescrews which rigidly purchase the vertebral bodies coupledwith flexible, elastic members; other forms may include rigidmembers coupled in a constrained (for example, pediclescrews) or semi-constrained manner (for example,
45、 screws androds connected with a universal joint with defined motionlimitations). Forms of these devices which employ hooks thatengage posterior spinal elements are also envisioned; thesedevices may support extension loading only or loads in bothflexion and extension.5.2 Spinal Testing Apparatus:5.2
46、.1 Test ChambersIn the case of a multi-specimenmachine being used with testing medium, each chamber shallbe isolated to prevent cross-contamination of the test speci-mens. The chamber shall be made entirely of non-corrosivecomponents, such as acrylic plastic or stainless steel, and shallbe easy to r
47、emove from the machine for thorough cleaningbetween tests.5.2.2 For wear testing, the test chamber also must isolate thedevice/construct from wear centers created by the testingfixtures.5.2.3 The user must determine the appropriate degrees offreedom for the device depending on its intended use (see5
48、.2.6).5.2.4 Component Clamping/FixturingSince one of thepurposes may be to characterize the wear properties of thespinal device, the method for mounting components in the testchamber shall not compromise the accuracy of assessment ofthe weight loss or stiffness variation during the test. Forexample,
49、 implants having complicated surfaces for contactingbone (for example, sintered beads, hydroxylapatite (HA)coating, plasma spray) may be specially manufactured tomodify that surface in a manner that does not affect the wearsimulation.5.2.5 The device should be securely (rigidly) attached at itsbone-implant interface to the test fixtures.NOTE 1This example depicts a 3D rendering of a possible method for implementing of the rotational testing apparatus.
