A survey of oxidation and oxidation potential in contemporary packaging for polyethylene total joint replacement components. J Biomed Mater Res 26; 78B (1):2-26

14 Variables involved in OXIDATION: Oxygen availability (oxygen is always present into UHMWPE) Purity of the inert gas Actual impermeability of the packaging Shelf-life life Radiation dose and dose rate Temperature

15 ABSORBED DOSE AND RADICALS Out of 79 irradiated samples (69 radiation sterilized + 1 highly crosslinked): kgy kgy 9 >35 kgy 11 5 kgy highly crosslinked (5 manufacturers) Out of 69 radiation sterilized samples, ALL showed a measurable ESR signal! None but one (not( remelted,, gamma sterilized) of the highly crosslinked samples show any measurable ESR signal

16 CONCLUSIONS Residual radicals are always found in radiation-sterilized UHMWPE Residual radicals can react with oxygen,, triggering the oxidation process Given the high number of variables involved, the prediction of the level, distribution and evolution of oxidation is, generally, not a successful activity!

17 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This study could not have been possible without the cooperation of the CTO Hospital (Torino). Lima Lto and Zimmer Inc are gratefully acknowledged for their financial support. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION!
