Standard Test Method for Evaluating Mobile Bearing Knee Dislocation
Scope/Abstract
1.1 This test method is designed to provide a standardized method to determine the dislocation resistance of mobile bearing knee designs with regard to femoral component disassociation and spin-out/spit-out of the mobile bearing insert.

1.2 Although the methodology described does not replicate all physiological loading conditions, it is a means of in-vitro comparison of mobile bearing knee designs and their ability to resist dislocation of the mobile bearing from the femoral or tibial components under stated test conditions.

1.3 The test method applies only to mobile bearing total knee designs.
