N1 - It has come to light that one significant mechanism for MOM failure may be repeated subluxation or impingement episodes leading to edge wear and release of 3 rd body particles. This MOM debris-challenge model simulates a patient who experienced one subluxation or impingement event and then continues to walk normally until the next event occurs one week later.
