ABSTRACT A large number of hip prosthesis with different designs have been developed.
However, the influence of hip implant design changes on the strains induced in the bone …

Background Stress shielding in the cemented hip prosthesis occurs due to the mismatching
in the mechanical properties of metallic stem and bone. This mismatching in properties is …

In total hip replacement (THR), bone resorption related to the foreign body reaction around
the implant causes bonding failure at the bone–prosthesis interface and adversely affects …

This article evaluates the effect of stress variation on adult femur following total hip
replacement using musculoskeletal-based finite element analysis. The aim was to study the …

Gait disorders contribute to the risk of falls and successive injuries, especially to elderly
populations. The risk of falls becomes higher for hip osteoarthritis (OA) and hip …

Abstract Resurfacing Hip Arthroplasty (RHA) is one of the solutions for young adults with hip
osteoarthritis disease (OA). Despite the positive outcomes that were achieved after RHA, the …

Stress shielding and bone remodeling effects are critical issues in promoting long term
stability of Total Hip Arthroplasty (THA). Stress shielding occurs when the femur experiences …

Ankle-foot orthoses (AFOs) are devices used to support patients with ankle muscle
weakness from conditions like stroke or cerebral palsy. This project designs a lightweight …

Pre-clinical and clinical results of a specific product can be transferred to another device if
the two devices are EQUIVALENT. To prove EQUIVALENCE, the criteria specified in MDR …

Background/purpose: Total hip arthroplasty is a safe, cost-effective surgical intervention
which restores mobility and alleviates pain from most kinds of hip arthritis. The proposed …
