  • Load Measurement with instrumented Knee Joint Prostheses

    Dear Biomch-L list members,

    the BioMechanics-Laboratory of the Charité - Universitary Medicine Berlin,
    Campus Benjamin Franklin has
    successfully completed a feasibility study for an instrumented knee
    endoprosthesis.

    This feasibility study for the development of an instrumented knee
    endoprosthesis was undertaken in collaboration
    with Centerpulse Orthopedics Ltd., a Zimmer Company (Winterthur,
    Switzerland).
    A standard tibial baseplate was modified to accommodate for the electronic
    unit developed
    by the Biomechanics-Lab of the Charité, Campus Benjamin Franklin, Berlin.
    An extensive Finite-Element-Analysis showed that the accuracy and safety of
    the prosthesis is guaranteed.

    Further information on the Load Measurement with instrumented Knee Joint
    Prostheses
    is available on http://www.medizin.fu-berlin.de/biomechanik/.

    Regards,
    Bernd
