Total knee arthroplasty is the end-stage surgical procedure for pain relief in degenerative diseases such as arthritis. There are many models, which were designed so far in five to six decades of arthroplasty history. This research is aimed to design an artificial high-flexion knee, which emphasizes the high-flexion extension range of over 125 deg that would provide the comfort of squatting even after total knee replacement.
全膝关节置换术是用于缓解诸如关节炎等退行性疾病疼痛的终末期外科手术。在长达五到六个十年的关节置换术历史中,已经设计出了许多模型。本研究旨在设计一种人工高屈曲膝关节,其强调超过125度的高屈曲伸展范围,即使在全膝关节置换术后也能提供蹲坐的舒适度。
