PDF-(BOOK)-The UHMWPE Handbook: Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene in Total Joint Replacement

This book describes the history and properties of ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene UHMWPE used in artificial jointsUHMWPE is currently used in 14 million patients around the world every year for use in the hip knee upper extremities and spine It has been used in hip replacements for over 40 years Although the use of this material is very succcessful the lifetime of artificial joints is limited to approximately 10 years after which the survivorship declines markedlyRecently the orthopedic industry has developed new processing techniques radiation crosslinking which are expected to dramatically reduce wear and improve the longevity of hip implants beyond 10 yearsA major emphasis of this book is to describe the properties of these new highly crosslinked UHMWPE materials and to review the latest clinical results The most uptodate information on the properties of UHMWPE Endorsed by Ticona the worlds leading manufacturer of UHMWPE for medical use An enormous installed base of over 14 million procedures each year UHMWPE has been used by orthopedists for over 40 years yet its properties and performance in situ are still not well understood.
