ASTM F2193-18a,Standard Specifications and Test Methods for Components Used in the Surgical Fixation of the Spinal Skeletal System.
ASTM F2193-18a are intended to provide a comprehensive reference for the components of systems used in the surgical fixation of the spinal skeletal system.
Significance and Use
Spinal implant constructs are typically a compilation of several components. Screws, plates, and rods are integral components of many spinal implant constructs. These components are designed to transfer load between the bone and the longitudinal or transverse element, or both. These specifications and test methods identify specifications for such components and define standard equivalent test methods that can beused when evaluating different related component designs.
Keywords of this standard:Bend Test – Fatigue Test – Fixation Devices – Musculoskeletal Systems – Performance Characteristics – Spinal Skeletal System – Surgical Devices – Surgical Instruments.
ASTM F2193-18a has been replaced by ASTM F2193-20.
