A Computational Analysis of Squeaking Hip Prostheses
A ceramic-on-ceramic (CoC) hip prosthesis with clearance is modeled as a multibody dynamics system for the purpose of studying hip squeaking. A continuous contact force model provides the intrajoint forces developed at the hip joint. Friction effects due to the relative motion are also considered. A FFT analysis of the audible sounds from CoC hip acceleration is carried out to analyze hip squea...
متن کاملAnalysis of Hip Joint Dose in Prostate Cancer Radiation Therapy: A Dosimetric Comparison of Treatment Plans
Background and purpose: Radiation therapy as a part of cancer treatment is used in almost 50-60% of involved cases. In prostate cancer radiation therapy, a large volume of pelvis is irradiated, so, it is necessary to preserve sensitive organs around the treatment area, especially rectum and bladder. In this study, some dosimetric parameters such as minimum dose (Dmin), maximum dose (Dmax), mean...
متن کاملBlood nickel concentrations in patients with stainless-steel hip prostheses.
Nickel concentrations were analyzed by electrothermal atomic absorption spectrophotometry in serum and whole blood specimens from patients 9 to 15 years after unilateral (N = 11) or bilateral (N = 2) hip arthroplasty. The hip prostheses were of the "Charnley" or "TR-28" (metal-to-plastic) types, fabricated of stainless-steel (14 to 16 percent Ni) with polyethylene acetabular cups. In 12 of the ...
متن کاملCobalt and chromium measurement in patients with metal hip prostheses.
Approximately 1 million metal-on-metal (MoM) hip prostheses have been implanted worldwide to alleviate pain, restore hip function, and improve overall quality of life. These implants contain femoral and acetabular bearing surfaces that are typically composed predominantly of cobalt (Co) and chromium (Cr). Although the majority of MoM hip replacements have been successful, multiple recent report...
متن کاملA Retrospective Analysis of Inflammatory Factors in Adult Patients With Cutaneous Vasculitis
Background: Cutaneous vasculitis is defined as the inflammation of blood vessels of the dermis. However cutaneous vasculitis is not a specific disease but a manifestation that can be seen in a variety of settings. We sought to review the clinical manifestations, laboratorial findings, pathological changes and etiologic association of cutaneous vasculitis in patients admitted to Dermatology Depa...
