1、Designation: F 2624 07Standard Test Method forStatic, Dynamic, and Wear Assessment of Extra-DiscalSpinal Motion Preserving Implants1This standard is issued under the fixed designation F 2624; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of r

2、evision, the year of last revision. 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 This test method is intended to provide test methods forthe static, dynamic, and wear testing of

3、 extra-discal motionpreserving implants. These implants are intended to augmentspinal stability without significant tissue removal while allow-ing motion of the functional spinal unit(s).1.2 Wear is assessed using a weight loss method and adimensional analysis for determining wear of components used

4、in extra-discal spinal motion preserving procedures, usingtesting medium as defined in this test method (6.1).1.3 This test method is not intended to address any potentialfailure mode as it relates to the fixation of the device to its bonyinterfaces.1.4 It is the intent of this test method to enable

5、 comparisonof motion preserving, extra-discal implants with regard tokinematic, functional, and wear characteristics when testedunder the specified conditions. It must be recognized, however,that there are many possible variations in the in vivo condi-tions. A single laboratory simulation with a fix

6、ed set ofparameters may not be universally representative.1.5 This test method is not intended to address facetarthroplasty devices.1.6 This test method prescribes the use of pure angularrotations for assessing the mechanical characteristics of extra-discal motion preserving implants. This test meth

7、od does not,however, prescribe methods for assessing the mechanicalcharacteristics of the device in translation (for example,anterior/posterior translation), though this type of linear motionmay be clinically relevant.1.7 In order that the data be reproducible and comparablewithin and between labora

8、tories, it is essential that uniformprocedures are established. This test method is intended tofacilitate uniform testing methods and data reporting forextra-discal motion preserving implants.1.8 Without a substantial clinical retrieval history of spinal,motion preserving extra-discal implants, actu

9、al loading profilesand patterns cannot be delineated at the time of the writing ofthis test method. It therefore follows that the motion profilesspecified by this test method do not necessarily accuratelyreproduce those occurring in vivo. Rather this method providesuseful boundary/endpoint condition

10、s for evaluating implantdesigns in a functional manner.1.9 This test method is not intended to be a performancestandard. It is the responsibility of the user of this test methodto characterize the safety and effectiveness of the device underevaluation.1.10 The values stated in SI units are to be reg

11、arded as thestandard. The values given in parentheses are for informationonly.1.11 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as thestandard with the exception of angular measurements, whichmay be reported in either degrees or radians.1.12 This standard does not purport to address all of thesa

12、fety 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.

Ceramics, metals, or polymers, or com-binations thereof are used in implant design, and it is the goalof this test method to enable a comparison of the static,dynamic, and wear properties generated by these devices,regardless of material and type of d

35、evice.5. Apparatus5.1 Implant ComponentsThe extra-discal motion preserv-ing device may comprise a variety of shapes and configura-tions. Some known forms include screws which rigidly pur-chase the vertebral bodies coupled with flexible, elasticmembers; other forms may include rigid members coupled i

37、 extension.5.2 Spinal Testing Apparatus:5.2.1 Test ChambersIn case of a multi-specimen machine,each chamber shall be isolated to prevent cross-contaminationof the test specimens. The chamber shall be made entirely ofnon-corrosive components, such as acrylic, plastic, or stainlesssteel, and shall be

38、easy to remove from the machine forthorough cleaning between tests.5.2.2 For wear testing, the test chamber also must isolate thespinal motion preserving device/construct from wear centerscreated by the testing fixtures.5.2.3 For all testing, the actuator of the testing machine isconnected to the su

39、perior testing block. The user must deter-mine the appropriate degrees of freedom for the devicedepending on its intended use (see 5.2.6).5.2.4 Component Clamping/FixturingSince one of thepurposes of the test is to characterize the wear properties of theextra-discal motion preserving device, the met

40、hod for mount-ing components in the test chamber shall not compromise theaccuracy of assessment of the weight loss or stiffness variationduring the test. For example, implants having complicatedsurfaces for contacting bone (for example, sintered beads,hydroxylapatite (HA) coating, plasma spray) may

41、be speciallymanufactured to modify that surface in a manner that does notaffect the wear simulation.5.2.5 The device should be securely (rigidly) attached at itsbone-implant interface to the test fixtures.5.2.6 The extra-discal motion preserving construct matedwith the testing fixture shall be const

42、rained with the appropri-ate degrees of freedom for the intended use. For example, somedevices may only be intended to provide stability in onemotion, which would dictate that the test fixture may beconstrained in all other motions. Other devices, which providestability along multiple degrees of fre

43、edom, would necessitatehaving more degrees of freedom incorporated into the testingfixture. The user shall determine and justify the appropriatedegrees of freedom of the test fixture.5.2.7 Blocks are to be made from polyacetal homopolymer(minimum ultimate tensile strength shall be no less than 61MPa

44、). The simulated spinous process is to be made from 304series stainless steel (minimum ultimate tensile strength shallbe no less than 500 MPa). See Note 1.NOTE 1304 stainless steel is used for the simulated spinous processfor rigidity purposes to enable the user to more accurately characterize theme

45、chanical performance of the extra-discal motion preserving implant.5.2.7.1 The simulated spinous process is only needed if theimplants are intended to be attached to the spinous process invivo.5.2.7.2 The simulated spinous process must be manufac-tured in such a way as to be rigidly attached to the

46、polyacetalhomopolymer block. Modifications are allowed to conform todevice design and the manufacturers intended use of theextra-discal implant. Note that if wear is expected between theimplant and the spinous process, the user should consideraltering the surface finish of the simulated spinous proc

47、ess tooffer a more appropriate test model for assessing the mechani-cal characteristics of the implant.5.2.8 Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 are of an extra-discal motionpreserving implant attached to simulated vertebral bodies (Fig.3) and testing fixtures. Note that the represented testingfixtures, which attach

48、to the simulated vertebral bodies and thetesting instrument, are for illustrative purposes only. The usermust design the appropriate fixtures for the device being testedand means by which they are rigidly fixed to the testinginstrument.5.2.9 Range of Motion (ROM):5.2.9.1 Axial compressive loads/moti
