Abstract:
The hip joint capsule is a complex soft tissue structure that comprises a number of ligaments with different thickness and strength respectively, as well as a thinner membrane-like part that provides the structural integrity for the capsule. The role of the capsule is twofold, forming a closed environment around the joint surfaces, in which the synovial fluids are retained, but also providing a passive joint resistance that acts in addition to the surrounding muscles and mainly in extreme limb positions and in unexpected limb loading. Despite its important role, the capsule is commonly removed

A servohydraulic hip simulator was upgraded to experimentally investigate cadaveric impingement/dislocation of the hip with clinically releveant joint motions. The resulting biomechanical analysis provided insight into risk factors for dislocation/impingement and clearly demonstrated the potential of the hip simulator as a research tool.

Abstract:
Hip simulators are designed to reproduce the forces and motion patterns of normal walking. In vivo demands on total hip replacements, however, are varied and often more severe than normal walking conditions. It is these severe conditions that often lead to implant failure. This is clinically based research aimed at understanding some of the more severe conditions in hips and the effect that these have on the performance of the total hip replacement.

Abstract:
Wear is the number one concern with regards to the longevity of THR (total hip replacement). Therefore, reliable in-vitro prediction of wear is necessary. Thus, the laboratory should first validate their hip simulators with known clinical materials. The limiting factor in hip wear simulation has been the joint fluid analog. Using 100% bovine serum as the joint fluid analog, UHMWPE (ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene) wear-rates have been continually underestimated and PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) wear has been overestimated. Therefore, this work investigated the effect of protein conce

Abstract:
A high number of revision hip replacement operations are currently performed due to loosening of the primary implant. The loading imposed on the prosthetic joint and its fixation mechanisms may be one of the many factors contributing to the loosening process. Previous work to determine hip joint loading has concentrated on gait, stair negotiation and rising from a chair. However, since patients often comment on the difficulty of getting into and out of a car and bath, these activities are also included in the current project.

Osteoarthritis (OA) is a common and progressive joint disease with a prevalence of 3.6-4.1% of the global population in 2010 and one of the leading causes of worldwide disability. Hip OA is less common than knee OA; although the prevalence of hip OA is 8% in people aged 85 years and over. There is no cure for hip OA, and pain and disability can be only managed through conservative therapies, or finally total hip replacement. Inappropriate hip joint loading, measured as hip joint contact forces (HJCF), during daily activities is believed to be a factor in hip OA initiation and progression. Neur

However, many of these patients report pain, impairments, and functional limitations following THA. The number one deficit observed for patients who fail conventional post-operative rehabilitation is persistent weakness of the hip abductor muscles.

Total hip replacement (THR) is one of the most successful and most frequently performed operations. For most implants the published rate of revision at 10 years is less than 10%. However the revision rates are higher for younger and more active patients who are likely to outlive their implants. The most frequent cause of THR failure is aseptic loosening, commonly accompanied by bone loss at the implant site. THR revisions give worse functional results and fail sooner than primary THR and are complicated by this loss of bone stock. A resurfacing hip prosthesis replaces the diseased surface laye
