Abstract:
:Results from previous quasi-static mechanical tests indicate that femurs from elderly subjects fail in vitro at forces 50% below those available in a fall from standing height. However, bone is a rate-dependent material, and it is not known whether this imbalance is present at rates of loading which occur in a fall. Based on recent data on time to peak force and body positions at impact during simulated falls, we designed a high rate test of the femur in a loading configuration meant to represent a fall on the hip. We used elderly (mean age 73.5 +/- 7.4 (SD) years) and younger adult (32.7 +/- 12.8 years) cadaveric femurs to investigate whether (1) the strength, stiffness, and energy absorption capacity of the femur increases under high rate loading conditions; (2) elderly femurs have reduced strength, stiffness, and energy absorption capacity compared with younger adult femurs at this loading rate; and (3) densitometric and geometric measures taken at the hip correlate with the measured fracture loads. Femurs were scanned using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) and then tested to failure in a fall loading configuration at a displacement rate of 100 mm/second. The fracture load in elderly and younger adult femurs increased by about 20% with a 50-fold increase in displacement rate. However, energy absorption did not increase with displacement rate because of a twofold increase in stiffness at the higher loading rate.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
