Summary of Test Methods4.1 Similar test methods are proposed for the mechanicalevaluation of all occipital-cervical and occipital-cervical-thoracic spinal implant assemblies (see Fig. 4).4.2

44、A vertebrectomy model is used for the evaluation ofboth occipital-cervical and occipital-cervical-thoracic systems.The spinal hardware is attached at the superior and inferioraspects to polyacetal homopolymer (polyacetal) test blocksseparated by a large gap. The polyacetal homopolymer used tomanufac

45、ture the test blocks should have a tensile breakingstrength no less than 61 MPa. The use of polyacetal test blocks(see Figs. 5-8) eliminates the effects of the variability of bonegeometry and material properties associated with cadaverictesting. Alternate designs of test blocks may be used as long a

46、sequivalent performance is demonstrated.FIG. 4 Occipital-Cervical Bilateral Construct Test Setup for Occipital Screws or BoltsF27060854.3 Three static mechanical tests and two dynamic tests willevaluate the occipital-cervical or occipital-cervical-thoracicspinal implant assemblies. The three static

47、mechanical tests arecompression bending, tensile bending, and torsion. The dy-namic tests are compression bending fatigue and torsionfatigue.4.4 A specific clinical indication generally requires a spe-cific occipital-cervical or occipital-cervical-thoracic spinal im-plant assembly. Occipital-cervica

48、l and occipital-cervical-thoracic spinal implant assemblies will be evaluated with testconfigurations that simulate the clinical requirements for theintended spinal location. The intended spinal location is theposterior surface of the occipital-cervical or occipital-cervical-thoracic spine (see Fig.

49、 4). The block moment arm for a testconfiguration depends on the intended spinal location. Theblock moment arm of the occipital-cervical or occipital-cervical-thoracic spine configuration (see Fig. 4) varies de-pending on the occipital attachment components, but should beno less than the block moment arm specified in the cervicalspine configuration. The cervical spine configuration (see Figs.6 and 7) specifies the block moment arm.4.5 The intended method of application of the occipital-cervical or occipital-cervical-thoracic spinal implant a
