Originální abstrakt

The present study focuses on friction evaluation of the polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) hydrogel layer, an anticipative material for cartilage replacement. The experiments were carried out in a ball-in-socket configuration using a pendulum hip simulator. The friction coefficients of ceramic-on-hydrogel pairs were compared with those of commercial implants (metal/ceramic heads vs UHMWPE, HXPE and metal/ceramic sockets). The effects of hydrogel ageing and hydration were studied, among others. The use of PVA inserts caused up to 98% reduction in friction coefficient compared to original hip pairs. The application of PVA for local or even complete cartilage replacement seems to be an outstanding opportunity in implantology.
