Abstract

Studying the lubrication properties of osteoarthritis (OA) synovial fluid (SF) enables an understanding of the boundary lubrication joint, mobility, and friction. However, tribology has never been combined with the clinical reality of the presence of worn particles within the synovial fluid and how they affect the osteoarthritic joints. Part of the problem relates to the tribology methods studying friction by applying inadequate pin-on-disc techniques. In this study, synovial fluid with and without worn particles was studied using a customized tribometer. This method enables opening the contact at the end of each cycle and simulates better contact conditions of a natural knee joint and can thus be applied for evaluating the severity of joint OA and the treatment given to the patient.
