Dataset description

More robust pre-clinical experimental wear simulation methods are required in order to simulate a wider range of activities, observed in different patient populations such as younger more active patients, as well as fully meeting and being capable of going well beyond the existing requirements of the relevant international standards. A new six station electromechanically driven simulator (Simulation Solutions, UK) with five fully independently controlled axes of articulation for each station, capable of replicating deep knee bending as well as other adverse conditions, which can be operated in either force or displacement control with improved input kinematic following, has been developed to meet these requirements. This study investigated the wear of a fixed bearing total knee replacement using this electromechanically driven fully independent knee simulator, and compared it to previous data from a predominantly pneumatically controlled simulator in which each station was not fully independently controlled. In addition, the kinematic performance and the repeatability of the simulators have been investigated and compared to the international standard requirements. The wear rates from the electromechanical and pneumatic knee simulators were not significantly different, with wear rates of 2.6 ± 0.9 and 2.7 ± 0.9 [mm3/MC] (mean ± 95% CI, p=0.99) and 5.4 ± 1.4 and 6.7 ± 1.5 [mm3/MC] (mean ± 95% CI, p=0.54) from the electromechanical and pneumatic simulators, under intermediate levels (maximum 5 mm) and high levels (maximum 10 mm) of AP displacements respectively. However, the output kinematic profiles of the control system, which drives the motion of the simulator followed the input kinematic profiles more closely on the electromechanical simulator than the pneumatic simulator. In addition, the electromechanical simulator was capable of following kinematic and loading input cycles within the tolerances of the international standard requirements (ISO 14243-3, 2014). The new generation electromechanical knee simulator with fully independent control has the potential to be used for a much wider range of kinematic conditions, including high-flexion and other severe conditions, due to its improved capability and performance in comparison to the previously used pneumatic controlled simulators.
