1、Designation: F 1717 04Standard Test Methods forSpinal Implant Constructs in a Vertebrectomy Model1This standard is issued under the fixed designation F 1717; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision

2、. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 These test methods cover the materials and methods forthe static and fatigue testing of spinal implant assemblies in avertebrectom

3、y model. The test materials for most combinationsof spinal implant components can be specific depending on theintended spinal location and intended method of application tothe spine.1.2 These test methods are intended to provide a basis forthe mechanical comparison among past, present, and futurespi

4、nal implant assemblies. They allow comparison of spinalimplant constructs with different intended spinal locations andmethods of application to the spine. These test methods are notintended to define levels of performance, since sufficientknowledge is not available to predict the consequences of the

5、use of a particular device.1.3 These test methods set out guidelines for load types andmethods of applying loads. Methods for three static load typesand one fatigue test are defined for the comparative evaluationof spinal implant assemblies.1.4 These test methods establish guidelines for measuringdi

6、splacements, determining the yield load, and evaluating thestiffness and strength of the spinal implant assembly.1.5 Some spinal constructs may not be testable in all testconfigurations.1.6 Values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard.1.7 This standard does not purport to address all of

7、thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.

Summary of Test Methods4.1 Similar test methods are proposed for the mechanicalevaluation of cervical spinal

38、implant assemblies (see Fig. 4,Fig. 6, and Fig. 8) and thoracolumbar, lumbar, and lumbosacralspinal implant assemblies (see Fig. 10, Fig. 12, and Fig. 14).4.2 Testing of the spinal implant assemblies will simulate avertebrectomy model via a large gap between two Ultra HighMolecular Weight Polyethyle

39、ne (UHMWPE) test blocks. TheUHMWPE used to manufacture the test blocks should have atensile breaking strength equal to 40 6 3 MPa (see Specifica-tion D 638). The UHMWPE test blocks (see Fig. 5, Fig. 7, Fig.9, Fig. 11, Fig. 13, and Fig. 15) will eliminate the effects of thevariability of bone propert

40、ies and morphometry. Alternatedesigns of test blocks may be used as long as equivalentperformance is demonstrated.4.3 Three static mechanical tests and one dynamic test willevaluate the spinal implant assemblies. The three static me-chanical tests are compression bending, tensile bending, andtorsion

41、. The dynamic test is a compression bending fatigue.4.4 A specific clinical indication generally requires a spe-cific spinal implant assembly. Spinal implant assemblies willbe evaluated with test configurations which simulate theclinical requirements for the intended spinal location. Theintended spi

42、nal locations are both anterior (see Fig. 4) andposterior (see Fig. 6 and Fig. 8) surfaces of the cervical spineor both anterior (see Fig. 10) and posterior (see Fig. 12 and Fig.14) surfaces of the thoracolumbar, lumbar, and lumbosacralspine. The block moment arm (see 6.6) for a test configurationde

43、pends on the intended spinal location. The cervical spineconfiguration (see Fig. 5, Fig. 7, and Fig. 9) specifies one blockmoment arm, while a larger block moment arm (see Fig. 11,Fig. 13, and Fig. 15) is specified for the thoracolumbar, lumbar,and lumbosacral spine.4.5 The intended method of applic

44、ation of the spinal im-plant assembly may vary for specific anatomic regions andclinical indications. Spinal implant assemblies contain differenttypes of anchors. Each type of anchor has an intended methodof application to the spine. For example, one assembly mayinclude anterior vertebral body screw

45、s and rods (see Fig. 2),while another assembly may contain posterior sacral screws,hooks, rods, and transverse elements (see Fig. 3). The blockmoment arm of a test configuration will be independent of theintended method of application of a spinal implant assembly;therefore, the test data for differe

46、nt intended methods ofapplication may be compared.5. Significance and Use5.1 Spinal implants are generally composed of severalcomponents which, when connected together, form a spinalimplant assembly. Spinal implant assemblies are designed toFIG. 6 Cervical Bilateral Construct Test Setup for Screws o

47、r BoltsF1717045provide some stability to the spine while arthrodesis takesplace. These test methods outline standard materials andmethods for the evaluation of different spinal implant assem-blies so that comparison between different designs may befacilitated.5.2 These test methods are used to quant

48、ify the static anddynamic mechanical characteristics of different designs ofspinal implant assemblies. The mechanical tests are conductedin vitro using simplified load schemes and do not attempt tomimic the complex loads of the spine.5.3 The loads applied to the spinal implant assemblies invivo will

49、, in general, differ from the loading configurationsused in these test methods. The results obtained here cannot beused directly to predict in vivo performance. The results can beused to compare different component designs in terms of therelative mechanical parameters.5.4 Fatigue testing in a simulated body fluid or saline maycause fretting, corrosion, or lubricate the interconnections andthereby affect the relative performance of tested devices. Thistest should be initially performed dry (ambient room condi-tions) for consistency. The effect of
