Table II.
Displacement values (mm) of tested anchors. ICONIX anchors did not reach 150 cycles and Q-FIX anchors did not reach 200 cycles, therefore data are not included; standard error (se) at 200 cycles is not described for all anchors as anchors failed before this point
| Studied anchor | n | Mean displacement at 50 cycles, mm (se) | Mean displacement at 100 cycles, mm (se) | Mean displacement at 150 cycles, mm (se) | Mean displacement at 200 cycles, mm | Mean total displacement, mm (se) | Mean number of cycles at failure (se) |
