Total Hip Replacement Very Successful Predictable Outcome Survivorship Time Over 300 K In US Young Active Patient
3
Revision Removal of Old Component Re-implantation of New Component
4
Revision Failure of Fixation Failure of Implant Infection of Periprosthetic Fracture Dislocation Technical
5
Revision Complex Lengthy Challenging
6
Revision/Most Challenging Cement Removal From Femur Bone Grafting and Reconstruction Soft Tissue Balancing
7
Current Techniques Gouging and Chiseling High Speed Time Consuming, Unsafe, Cumbersome
8
Current Techniques Perforation Fracture
9
Other Method Laser Difficult To Apply Not Practical
10
1990 - 1991 Ohannes Nercessian, M.d. Philip Hovnanian, Phd David Wuchinik, Phd Acryl-X System
11
Ultrasound Energy Irrigation Aspiration
12
Acryl-X System Hand Piece Ultrasonic Generator Current Trap/Disposable Tubing
13
Acryl-X System How it Works When Applied to Cement Fractional Temperature Rise Soften the Cement Softened Cement Enters Hollow Tube Suctioned Out Irrigation Keeps the Tip Cool
14
Hand Piece Piezoelectric Crystal Attached to the Hollow Connecting Body Hollow Titanium Tip Aspiration Line and Cement Trap Ultrasonic Output Connector Irrigation Connector
15
Piezoelectric Crystal Attached to the Hollow Connecting Body Hollow Titanium Tip Aspiration Line and Cement Trap Ultrasonic Output Connector Irrigation Connector
16
When the Foot Petal is Pressed Irrigation Ultrasonic Current From the Generator Vibration 20k/Hz Tip Vibrates The Friction Softens the Cement Soften Core is Aspirated
17
Ultrasonic Generator Current Line Converts to 20k/Hz Power Drive the Hand Piece Crystal Vibrations Adjust Control Knob Adjust the Power Level Delivers to the Piezoelectric Crystal in the Hand Piece Determines the Force of the Titanium Tip Vibration The Frequency Does Not Change Only the Stroke on the Tip 0-10
18
Irrigation 100 cc/minutes Pulse Pump Keeps the Tip Cool
19
Safety High Frequency (Low Power) Living Cells and Tissue Little Evidence of Injury Bone Healing 1950 Germany and Italy
20
1969 Polyakov Alternative to ORIF In Bone Fractures N - Butyl - Cyano - Acrylate
21
Safety Tissue Necrosis Increases With High Temperature Nerve Injury Thrombo-Embolism
22
The Use of Ultrasound Energy Industry Welding Cutting Plastic
23
Medicine Diagnostic Radiology/ Vascular Therapeutic
24
Physical Therapy Dentistry Ophthalmology Neurosurgery Urology
25
1967 Quinetron U/S Chisel Bone Harvesting 1981 (URSK-7N) Cement Removal from Bone - Temperature ≥ 150 Degrees Celsius Cameron et al U/S Removal of Porous Implant From Bone
26
1992-2008 218 Revisions for Cement Removal Average Time 25.5 Minutes Conventional Techniques 72 Minutes 10% Perforation
27
Advantages Easy to Use Effective and Efficient Reduce Cement Removal Time Reduces Overall Operating Time Reduces Femoral Perforation/Fracture No Significant Thermal Injury Decreases the Level of Anxiety and Frustration
