A total hip replacement consisting of a 28 mm diameter Co-Cr femoral head articulating against a UHMWPE cup functions in a patient for 5 years before it is removed during revision arthroplasty. You perform a detailed analysis of the explanted cup. The articular surface of the explanted UHMWPE cup shows a change in geometry such that the cup is 0.75 mm deeper (see photo). Radiograph of THR at the time of surgery Assumptions: 28 mm Patient weighs 70kg with an average load of a gate cycle of 2.5BW Neglect creep for all questions Assume 1 million steps per year ANSWER COLUMN THR at day 1 QUESTIONS 0.75 mm THR at 5 years Total angular motion per gait stride (hip flexion-extension-flexion OR heel strike to heel strike) is 80 degrees Hint: Recall details of UHMWPE materials and applications in THR from Lecture 9 Notes. Q1A: Calculate the annual volume of UHMWPE wear debris. UHMWPE after 5 years showing progression of worn region (dark grey)
