In vivo measured joint friction in hip implants during walking after a short rest.
INTRODUCTION:It has been suspected that friction in hip implants is higher when walking is initiated after a resting period than during continuous movement. It cannot be excluded that such increased initial moments endanger the cup fixation in the acetabulum, overstress the taper connections in the...
