Mechanical characterization and design of biomaterials for nucleus pulposus replacement and regeneration

Abstract: Biomaterials for nucleus pulposus (NP) replacement and regeneration have great potential to restore normal biomechanics in degenerated intervertebral discs following nucleotomy. Mechanical characterizations are essential for assessing the efficacy of biomaterial implants for clinical applications. While traditional compression tests are crucial to quantify various modulus values, relaxation behaviors and fatigue resistance, rheological measurements should also be conducted to investigate the viscoelastic prope… Show more

“…Other recommended extensions to the study include assessing NRDs with significantly different stiffnesses or chemical compositions (e.g., elastomeric devices similar to PDN‐Hydraflex, 31 Aquarelle, 11 NeuDisc, 80 DASCOR, 13 or NuCore 21 ) as these factors were similar here; in the longer term, related studies investigating the response of ex vivo cultured specimens containing cellular components could be of additional value. 81 , 82 As AF closure sutures were implemented, deviating from clinical practice, investigating different closure techniques would also be worthwhile. This step was needed to prevent expulsion following a single off‐axis compression; however, it is not known whether this step affected expulsion risk in either the preformed or in situ case disproportionately.…”
