The acoustic emission technique in orthopaedics - a review

Abstract: Traditionally, orthopaedic research has focused upon the assessment of individual components in an implanted construct. A great deal of research has investigated the durability of the metallic stem, even though this is the most robust component in the implanted system. Standards have been developed for the structural assessment of the implant and even the bone cement which holds the implant in place in the bone. However, the construct as a whole, and its short-and long-term structural integrity, are rarely ass… Show more

“…[1][2][3] The above studies, among others, have been conducted mostly on engineering materials; however, the usefulness of AE has been demonstrated in certain cases of biological materials like tissues or bones. [4][5][6] AE enhances the understanding of the fracture mechanisms of materials with engineering significance, something crucial for construction and repair purposes. The motive for biological tissues monitoring and specifically the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is similar.…”

“…Sir John Charnley revolutionized the field of joint arthroplasty in the 1960s with the development of the total hip replacement. He replaced the diseased hip joint with a steel femoral component and a plastic acetabular socket cup combination, both fixed into the bone using a self-curing acrylic cement, polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) (Browne et al, 2005). That way, he has restored some of the most problematic joints in the human body.…”

“…The growing importance of different Total Hip Arthroplasty (THA) studies is due to increased life expectancy of the population and its social and clinical relevance. Interdisciplinary THA studies such as: biomechanics (Bergmann et al, 2001;Fonseca et al, 2010;Nabais, 2006;Ramos et al, 2005; Stolk et al, 2006;Teixeira et al, 2008; Vieira, 2004); finite element analysis (Bachtar et al, 2006;Nizam Ahmad et al, 2006;Ridzwan et al, 2006) and acoustic emission monitoring (Browne et al, 2005;Cristofolini et al, 2003;Davies et al, 1996;Franke et al, 2004;Gueiral, 2008;Qi et al, 2005;Qi, 2000;Rowland et al, 2004) have been published. Research has been done to improve the performance of artificial implants, addressing factors such as geometry, materials, cements, and other surgical techniques that directly or indirectly, might influence the performance and success of cemented arthroplasty.…”
