Comparison of the Kinematics and Laxity of Total Knee Arthroplasty Bearing Designs Stabilized With Specimen-Specific Virtual Ligaments on a Joint Motion Simulator
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A variety of total knee arthroplasty (TKA) designs offer increased congruency bearing options, primarily to compensate for a loss of posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) function. However, their efficacy in providing sufficient ...
In Vitro Assessment of Knee Joint Biomechanics Using a Virtual Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Understanding the biomechanical impact of injuries and reconstruction of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is vital for improving surgical treatments that restore normal knee function. The purpose of this study was to ...
Development of Multibundle Virtual Ligaments to Simulate Knee Mechanics After Total Knee Arthroplasty
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Preclinical evaluation of total knee arthroplasty (TKA) components is essential to understanding their mechanical behavior and developing strategies for improving joint stability. While preclinical testing of TKA components ...
Development and Assessment of a Microcomputed Tomography Compatible Five Degrees-of-Freedom Knee Joint Motion Simulator
Publisher: American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Currently available knee joint kinematic tracking systems fail to nondestructively capture the subtle variation in joint and soft tissue kinematics that occur in native, injured, and reconstructed joint states. Microcomputed ...
