This Part of BS7254 specifies general requirements for materials and finish of orthopaedic implants used for bone surgery including osteosynthesis and joint replacement, and made of wrought austenitic stainless steel, cast cobalt-based alloys, wrought cobalt-based alloys, wrought titanium, wrought titanium alloy and non-metallic materials.
NOTE1 This Part of BS7254 gives requirements for implants for osteosynthesis and for partial and total joint prostheses. These requirements may be referred to in, or superseded by, Parts of BS3531 and BS7251 as regards particular types of orthopaedic implant. However, it is unlikely that every type of orthopaedic implant will be covered by a Part of BS3531 or BS7251 and, if no individual product specification exists, this Part of BS7254 is intended to give requirements applicable to orthopaedic implants in general.
