Reverse Total Shoulder Prostheses Wear Test

Wear performance of reverse total shoulder replacements is tested on OIC’s AMTI hip simulator. Force and displacement parameters suitable for reverse total shoulder prostheses are applied to completion of 2.5 million cycles or until mechanical failure of the articulating surfaces is observed. An ISO working draft remains under development, awaiting an official release.
