Using a friction measurement system designed for such a purpose the frictional characteristics of a total knee replacement system have been assessed as a function of in vitro wear following wear simulation as described in Part I. The Stribeck analysis has been used to evaluate the data and to indica
Between 1973 and 1981 , bilateral total replacement of hip and knee joints was performed in 22 patients with rheumatoid arthritis During follow-up, 2 patients died of diseases not directly related to the operation Besides these patients, there were 2 patients who could not be followed up The remain
## Abstract Investigations were performed to characterize the wear patterns of tibial inserts in a loadβcontrolled knee simulator by incorporating both normal gait and clinically acquired stair climbing kinematics and load conditions. Two different tibial insert designs were evaluated: the NexGen C
