Abstract
Objective: To estimate advisability of prototypes of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) in hip arthroplasty.
Material and methods: We used 34 UHMWPE specimens for tests and developed a test program consisting of incoming control of specimen geometrical parameters, tribotechnical tests, assessment of liner surface condition and deviation from roundness.
Results: Input control of geometrical parameters of specimens showed their heterogeneity. UHMWPE specimens with negative value (Dc-Dh) failed tribotechnical tests. Specimens with value (Dc-Dh) within 0.6-0.8 mm demonstrated lower value of T moment compared to other specimens.
Conclusion: About 75% of UHMWPE prototype liners are suitable for arthroplasty.
