1. Scope
1.1 These test methods measure how much a prosthetic anatomic glenoid component rocks
or pivots following cyclic displacement of the humeral head to opposing glenoid rims
(for example, superior-inferior or anterior-posterior). Motion is quantified by the
tensile displacement opposite each loaded rim after dynamic rocking. Similarly, these
test methods measure how much a prosthetic reverse glenoid component rocks or pivots
following cyclic articulation with a mating humeral liner. Motion is quantified by
the magnitude of displacement measured before and after cyclic loading.
