Abstract

An experimental model, capable of inducing controlled stress fields to the distal femoral metaphyses of large dogs, is presented. This model utilized an implantable hydraulic device incorporating five loading cylinders and platens in direct contact with an exposed plane of trabecular bone. A microprocessor controls the loading characteristic, and finite element models were created to calculate the induced stress and strain fields. The trabecular remodeling response is measured using serial in vivo computed tomography, in vitro microcomputed tomography, and histologic analysis. The results of the experiment indicate that significant remodeling can be induced by the activated implant. An increase in trabecular orientation toward the loaded platens was observed, and a statistically significant decrease in connectivity was documented. The greatest effect was associated with a change in the loading rate. A fast rise time (70 ms) loading waveform induced significant bone ingrowth at the implant interface when compared to a slow rise time waveform (700 ms), and demonstrated high correlations with the calculated stress fields as remodeling approached an equilibrium state.
