1. Scope 1.范围
1.1 These specifications and test methods are intended to provide a comprehensive reference for the components of systems used in the surgical fixation of the spinal skeletal system. The document catalogs standard specifications that specify material, labeling, and handling requirements. The specifications and test methods also establish common terminology that can be used to describe the size and other physical characteristics of spinal components and performance definitions related to the performance of spinal components. Additionally, the specifications and test methods establish performance requirements and standard test methods to consistently measure performance-related mechanical characteristics of spinal components. 1.1 本规范和测试方法旨在为脊柱骨骼系统手术固定中使用的系统组件提供全面的参考。本文件收录了规定材料、标签和处理要求的标准规范。规范和测试方法还建立了通用术语,可用于描述脊柱组件的尺寸和其他物理特征,以及与脊柱组件性能相关的性能定义。此外,这些规范和测试方法还制定了性能要求和标准测试方法,用于统一测量脊柱组件与性能相关的机械特性。
1.2 These specifications and test methods are part of a series of standards addressing systems used in the surgical fixation of the spinal skeletal system. These specifications and test methods concentrate on the individual components, which are found in many spinal fixation systems. If the user is interested in evaluating the next level in the spinal fixation system chain, the interconnections between individual components and subassemblies (two or more components), the user should consult Guide F1798. At the highest level in this chain is Test Methods F1717, which is used to evaluate an entire construct assembled from many components and involves numerous interconnections and several subassemblies. 1.2 本规范和测试方法是针对脊柱骨骼系统手术固定系统的系列标准的一部分。这些规范和测试方法主要针对许多脊柱固定系统中的单个组件。如果用户有兴趣评估脊柱固定系统链中的下一级,即单个组件和子组件(两个或多个组件)之间的互连,则应参考指南 F1798。该链的最高级别是测试方法 F1717,用于评估由多个组件组装而成的整个结构,涉及众多互连和多个子组件。
1.3 It is not the intention of these specifications and test methods to define levels of performance or case-specific clinical performance for spinal components addressed by this document.

A4. TEST METHOD FOR MEASURING THE STATIC AND FATIGUE BENDING STRENGTH OF METALLIC SPINAL SCREWS A4.测量金属脊柱螺钉静态和疲劳弯曲强度的测试方法
A4.1 Scope A4.1 范围
A4.1.1 This test method describes the methods for determining the static and dynamic bending properties of metallic spinal screws that are used in spinal arthrodesis implants. A4.1.1 本试验方法描述了测定用于脊柱关节置换植入物的金属脊柱螺钉的静态和动态弯曲特性的方法。
A4.1.2 This test method is intended to provide a means of mechanically characterizing different component designs of spinal screws. It is not the intention of this test method to define levels of performance of spinal screws since insufficient information is available to predict the consequences of the use of a particular screw design. A4.1.2 本试验方法旨在提供一种方法,对脊柱螺钉的不同组件设计进行机械鉴定。本测试方法无意定义脊柱螺钉的性能水平,因为没有足够的信息来预测使用特定螺钉设计的后果。
A4.2 Summary of Method A4.2 方法概述
A4.2.1 Spinal screws are loaded in quasi-static cantilever bending in order to record the component’s mechanical response to the applied load. The load-versus-deflection curve is then analyzed in order to determine data used to derive the remaining bending properties of the spinal screw. A4.2.1 在准静态悬臂弯曲中加载脊柱螺钉,以记录部件对施加载荷的机械响应。然后分析载荷-挠度曲线,以确定用于推导脊柱螺钉剩余弯曲特性的数据。
A4.2.2 Samples of a given spinal screw are loaded under cantilever bending in a sinusoidal cyclic manner at a predetermined frequency. The fatigue loading is continued until the specimen fails, a limit is reached which terminates the test, or until a predetermined cycle count (runout limit) is reached. The resulting test information is then used to develop a moment versus number of cycles curve that will characterize the general fatigue behavior for the given spinal screw design over a range of applied bending moments. Additionally, the information can be used, when applicable, to determine the spinal screw’s median bending fatigue moment determined for a specified NN number of cycles. A4.2.2 在悬臂弯曲状态下,以预定频率正弦循环加载特定脊柱螺钉样品。疲劳加载一直持续到试样失效、达到终止试验的极限或达到预定的循环次数(跳动极限)为止。测试结果信息可用于绘制弯矩与循环次数的曲线,该曲线将描述特定椎弓螺钉设计在一定范围的外加弯矩下的一般疲劳行为。此外,在适用的情况下,这些信息还可用于确定脊柱螺钉在指定 NN 循环次数下的中位弯曲疲劳力矩。
A4.3 Significance and Use A4.3 重要性和用途
A4.3.1 This test method establishes a uniform static and dynamic bending test that will characterize, and can be used to compare, the static bending characteristics and fatigue performance of different designs of spinal screws. This test method is used to determine a spinal screw’s fatigue life over a range of maximum bending moment conditions. Additionally, the method may be used to estimate the spinal screw’s fatigue characteristics for a specified number of fatigue cycles. A4.3.1 本试验方法规定了统一的静态和动态弯曲试验,可鉴定并用于比较不同设计的脊柱螺钉的静态弯曲特性和疲劳性能。该测试方法用于确定脊柱螺钉在一系列最大弯矩条件下的疲劳寿命。此外,该方法还可用于估算脊柱螺钉在特定疲劳循环次数下的疲劳特性。
A4.3.2 Spinal screws are integral components of many spinal implant constructs. They are designed to anchor the longitudinal or transverse elements, or both, to the bone. This test method defines standard equivalent test methods that can be used when evaluating different designs of spinal screws.

A4.3.3 This test method assumes that the spinal screw is manufactured from a material that exhibits linear-elastic material behavior. Therefore, the test method is not applicable for testing spinal screws made from materials that exhibit nonlinear elastic behavior. A4.3.3 本试验方法假定脊柱螺钉是由表现出线性弹性材料行为的材料制造的。因此,该测试方法不适用于测试由表现出非线性弹性行为的材料制成的脊柱螺钉。
A4.3.4 The fatigue test method described in this document is restricted to the testing of the spinal screw within the material’s linear-elastic range. Therefore, the fatigue test method is not applicable for testing spinal screws under conditions that would approach or exceed the bending strength of the spinal screw being tested. A4.3.4 本文件所述的疲劳试验方法仅限于在材料的线弹性范围内对脊柱螺钉进行试验。因此,疲劳测试方法不适用于在接近或超过被测脊柱螺钉弯曲强度的条件下测试脊柱螺钉。
A4.3.5 The reporting of static and fatigue bending properties determined by this testing technique are only suitable for comparative evaluations between screws of different sizes, designs, and materials. A4.3.5 通过该测试技术确定的静态和疲劳弯曲特性报告仅适用于不同尺寸、设计和材料的螺钉之间的比较评估。

A4.4.11 脊柱螺钉的螺纹区域嵌入由合成材料制成的试验块中,这种材料易于使用标准脊柱固定系统器械进行加工。用户可根据需要制造硬度更高的金属试块(即硬度不低于 40 HRC 的硬化不锈钢),但也可以用规格 D4020 或规格 F648 超高分子量聚乙烯或规格 F1839 的 40 级硬质聚氨酯泡沫代替试块材料。
A4.4.12 An anchoring fixture is rigidly attached to the spinal screw’s head so that the screw’s head is fully constrained during the test. The load is applied to the test sample at the end containing the test block, which is protected from localized failure by a protection sleeve placed around the test block. (See Fig. A4.2) A4.4.12 锚定夹具与脊柱螺钉头部刚性连接,使螺钉头部在试验期间受到完全约束。载荷加在包含测试块的一端的测试样本上,测试块周围的保护套可防止局部失效。(见图 A4.2)
A4.5 Sampling A4.5 取样
A4.5.1 Only unused and untested specimens shall be included in the sample for a given spinal component design. Include only final form and finished components in the sample. A4.5.1 对于给定的脊柱部件设计,样品中只能包括未使用和未测试的试样。样品中只包括最终形状和成品部件。
A4.5.2 The sample size used for static tests shall be determined according to the methods defined in Practice E122 for any given loading condition. If insufficient information is available to determine a suitable sample size with Practice E122, then use a minimum sample size of five. A4.5.2 对于任何给定的加载条件,静态试验所用的样本量应根据试验规程E122 中规定的方法确定。如果没有足够的资料可用 "规程E122 "确定合适的样本量,则最少使用5个样本量。
A4.5.3 For fatigue studies, test at least two specimens at each of three different maximum moment levels. One of the three maximum moment levels shall satisfy the maximum runout moment condition. Several references have been compiled that can provide the user with guidance and recommendations for selecting suitable sample sizes for fatigue studies used to develop an M-NM-N diagram. (1 and 2) A4.5.3 对于疲劳研究,在三个不同的最大力矩水平下至少各测试两个试样。三个最大力矩水平中必须有一个满足最大跳动力矩条件。已汇编了一些参考资料,可为用户提供指导和建议,以便为疲劳研究选择合适的样本大小,用于绘制 M-NM-N 图。(1 和 2)
A4.5.4 Use spinal screws of sufficient length so that at least 5 mm of screw thread length is included in the exposed length (see Fig. A4.2). A4.5.4 使用足够长的脊柱螺钉,使外露长度中至少包括 5 毫米的螺纹长度(见图 A4.2)。
A4.6 Preparation of Apparatus A4.6 准备仪器
A4.6.1 Manufacture test blocks so that the surface defined by the outside diameter of the screw is at least one screw thread diameter away from the test block’s outer surface and 10 mm long (measured in the direction of the screw’s longitudinal axis). Check to ensure that the test block surfaces are oriented A4.6.1 制造试块,使螺钉外径确定的表面与试块外表面至少相差一个螺纹直径,长度为 10 毫米(沿螺钉纵轴方向测量)。检查试块表面的方向是否正确
so that the spinal screw’s undeflected longitudinal axis is aligned perpendicular to the direction of the applied load. 使脊柱螺钉的未变形纵轴垂直于施加载荷的方向。
A4.6.2 Drill pilot holes in the test block for insertion of the test specimen. The holes shall be drilled coincident to the test block’s longitudinal axis. The drill used shall be the size specified by the manufacturer for the specimen being tested. When testing self-drilling spinal screws, a pilot hole that is no larger than 75%75 \% of the screw’s core diameter is recommended simply to ensure the screw’s orientation for testing. Drill the pilot hole straight and true at 90^(@)90^{\circ} to the surface of the test block that will be penetrated. Tapered holes are allowed when tapered screws are to be tested. Complete the test block’s hole preparation according to the given spinal screw’s surgical technique (such as tapping when required). A4.6.2 在试块上钻导向孔,以便插入试样。钻孔应与试块的纵轴重合。所使用的钻头必须是制造商为所测试的试样规定的尺寸。测试自钻脊柱螺钉时,建议钻一个不大于螺钉芯直径 75%75 \% 的导向孔,以确保测试时螺钉的方向。在 90^(@)90^{\circ} 处将导向孔钻直,并与要穿透的试块表面保持一致。测试锥形螺钉时,允许钻锥形孔。根据特定脊柱螺钉的手术技术完成测试块的孔准备工作(如需要时进行攻丝)。
A4.6.3 Insert the test sample into the test block to a depth of approximately 10 mm to create the same moment arm (L)(L) for all screws having the same nominal length. For screws whose nominal length is less than 30 mm , inset the screw until A4.6.3 将测试样本插入测试块,深度约为 10 毫米,以便为所有具有相同标称长度的螺钉创建相同的力矩臂 (L)(L) 。对于标称长度小于 30 毫米的螺钉,插入螺钉直至
one-third the length of the screw (measured from the longitudinal element interconnection and the screw’s tip) is engaged in the test block. 螺杆长度的三分之一(从纵向元件连接处和螺杆顶端测量)啮合在试块上。
A4.6.4 Mount the test sample in the test machine so that the screw’s head is rigidly constrained as illustrated in Fig. A4.2. The test fixture depicted in Fig. A4.2 can be modified so that the interconnection mechanism can be used for anchoring the screw. A4.6.4 如图A4.2 所示,将试验样品安装在试验机中,使螺钉头部受到刚性约束。图 A4.2 所示的试验夹具可以改装,以便使用互联机构固定螺钉。
A4.6.5 Position the test setup so that the load is applied to the center of the test block, 5 mm from each end. The bending moment arm (L)(L) shall be held constant for all diameter screws of a given length. Install the protection sleeve over the test block. A4.6.5 放置试验装置,使载荷作用在试验块的中心,两端各距 5 毫米。对于给定长度的所有直径螺钉,弯矩臂 (L)(L) 应保持恒定。在试块上安装保护套。
A4.6.6 Record the exposed length and bending moment arm (L)(L) for the final test setup. A4.6.6 记录最终测试装置的外露长度和弯矩臂 (L)(L) 。

Bending characteristics shall be measured using the apparatus described in A4.4. A4.7.1 (在位移控制条件下)施加越来越大的荷载,并自动或根据试验过程中获 得的数值数据生成荷载与位移的关系图。应使用 A4.4 所述仪器测量弯曲特性。
A4.7.2 Load the test specimen at a displacement rate not exceeding 25mm//min25 \mathrm{~mm} / \mathrm{min}. Continue loading the test specimen until the slope of the load-versus-displacement curve, beyond the linear elastic region, changes “sign.” A4.7.2 以不超过 25mm//min25 \mathrm{~mm} / \mathrm{min} 的位移速率加载试样。继续加载试样,直至线性弹性区域以外的荷载-位移曲线斜率 "符号 "发生变化。

Fatigue Test Method 疲劳测试方法
A4.7.4 Conduct the recommended fatigue test in a laboratory air environment at room temperature. Other test environments (simulated body fluid, 9-gNaCl9-\mathrm{g} \mathrm{NaCl} per 1000 mL water saline, a saline drip, or water) may be used while testing, but the suitability of using the respective test environment must be justified, given the accelerated nature of the laboratory fatigue test. If an alternative test environment is used, record all pertinent parameters related to the environmental conditions (temperature, pH , solution strengths, and so forth) before, during, and after the test. A4.7.4 在实验室室温空气环境中进行建议的疲劳试验。试验时可使用其他试验环境(模拟体液、 9-gNaCl9-\mathrm{g} \mathrm{NaCl} 每1000毫升生理盐水、生理盐水滴注或水),但鉴于实验室疲劳试验的加速性质,必须证明使用相应试验环境的适宜性。如果使用其他试验环境,应记录试验前、试验中和试验后与环境条件(温度、 pH 值、溶液强度等)有关的所有参数。
A4.7.5 Apply sinusoidal cyclic loads in load control at an RR ratio of 0.10 for testing of devices intended for either the lumbar or thoracic spine regions. Apply sinusoidal cyclic loads in load control at an RR ratio of -1.0 for testing of devices intended for the cervical spine region. Other RR ratios may be used but must be documented in the report. A4.7.5 用于腰椎或胸椎部位的设备测试时,在载荷控制中以 RR 0.10 的比率施加正弦循环载荷。在负载控制中施加正弦周期负载, RR 比率为-1.0,用于测试颈椎区域的设备。也可使用其他 RR 比率,但必须在报告中记录。
A4.7.6 The user shall determine the frequency at which to conduct the fatigue test, but the maximum recommended frequency of cyclic loading shall be 30 Hz . A4.7.6 用户应确定进行疲劳试验的频率,但建议循环加载的最大频率应为 30 赫兹。
A4.7.7 Initial fatigue maximum moment levels that are 75, 50 , and 25%25 \% of the bending ultimate moment determined with the static test method are suggested for the fatigue study. One maximum moment level should have specimens that do not fail before 2500000 cycles. The difference between the maximum moment value resulting in specimen failure and the maximum runout moment value must be less than 10%10 \% of the device’s bending ultimate moment. A4.7.7 建议在疲劳研究中采用静态试验方法确定的弯曲极限力矩的75、50和 25%25 \%
