ASTM F1672 Patellar Prosthesis Testing

The American Society for Testing and Materials developed ASTM F1672 as an outline for technicians and engineers assessing the attributes of patellar prostheses used in knee replacements. The internationally recognized standard offers details on the following:

• Design
• Performance Characteristics
• Material Selection
• Manufacturing Processes

The ASTM F1672 standard is regularly updated to incorporate the latest scientific research and technological advancements, ensuring that patellar prostheses continually meet the highest safety and performance benchmarks.

The Importance of Patellar Prosthesis Testing

Patellar prostheses testing is vital to ensuring the quality, durability, and functionality of knee replacements. The patella, or kneecap, is a critical component of our mobility, and a defective prosthetic could significantly impair the user’s mobility and quality of life. Patellar prosthesis testing helps manufacturers assess the various aspects of their prosthesis designs, including:

• Axial Compression Testing
• Dedicated Screw Testing
• Fatigue Testing
• Life Cycle Testing

• Non-Standard Testing
• Tensile Testing
• Shear Testing
• Wear Testing
