Voorbeeldzinnen
- The knee is the body's largest joint.
- I'm afraid I have water in my knee joint.
- The rotational axis of the impactor knee joint shall be vertical.
- A horizontal normal force shall be applied to the metal tube at a distance of 2,0 ± 0,01 m from the centre of the knee joint and the resulting angle of knee deflection shall be recorded.
- A horizontal normal force shall be applied to the femur at a distance of 50 mm from the centre of the knee joint and the resulting knee shearing displacement shall be recorded.
- For the purpose of this Directive, a hip, knee or shoulder replacement means an implantable component part of a total joint replacement system which is intended to provide a function similar to that of either a natural hip joint, a natural knee joint or a natural shoulder joint.
- The lower legform impactor shall consist of two foam-covered rigid segments, representing femur (upper leg) and tibia (lower leg), joined by a deformable, simulated knee joint.
- For these reasons, it is necessary to proceed to the reclassification of hip, knee and shoulder total joint replacements as class III medical devices.
- on the reclassification of hip, knee and shoulder joint replacements in the framework of Council Directive 93/42/EEC concerning medical devices
- The lower legform impactor must consist of two foam covered rigid segments, representing femur (upper leg) and tibia (lower leg), joined by a deformable, simulated knee joint.
- For both tests the impactor shall have the intended orientation about its longitudinal axis, for the correct operation of its knee joint, with a tolerance of ± 2°.
- The impactor shall have the intended orientation about its longitudinal axis, for the correct operation of its knee joint, with a tolerance of ± 2°.
- One uni-axial accelerometer must be fitted to the non-impacted side of the tibia, close to the knee joint, with its sensitive axis in the impact direction.
- Hip, knee and shoulder replacements should be distinguished from other total joint replacements, due to the particular complexity of the joint function to be restored and the consequent increased risk of failure due to the device itself.
- The bending moment applied at the centre of the knee joint, due to the weight of the metal tube and other components (excluding the legform itself), shall not exceed 25 Nm.
