Abstract
This article presents criteria for the design of a lumbar intervertebral disc prosthesis that take into consideration issues of endurance, materials behavior, geometry, kinetics, motion constraints, fixation to bone, and safety. The criteria and design philosophies discussed are generally applicable in the synthesis of any new implant system. Specifications of the design of a disc prosthesis are presented along with an evaluation of the design based on some of the preliminary test data.
