Intended Use
The CONSERVE® Total Femoral Head is indicated for use in total hip arthroplasty for reduction or relief of pain and/or improved hip function in skeletally mature patients with the following conditions: 1. non-inflammatory degenerative joint disease such as osteoarthritis, avascular necrosis, ankylosis, protrusio acetabuli, and painful hip dysplasia; 2. inflammatory degenerative joint disease such as rheumatoid arthritis; 3. correction of functional deformity; and, 4. revision procedures where other treatments or devices have failed The CONSERVE® Total Femoral Head is intended for single patient use only.
Device Story
CONSERVE® Total Femoral Head is a cobalt-chromium-molybdenum orthopedic implant used in total hip arthroplasty. It serves as a replacement femoral head articulating with an acetabular component. The device features a superfinished articulating surface and a WMT12/14 taper connection compatible with existing femoral stems. It is intended for use by orthopedic surgeons in clinical settings to reduce pain and improve hip function. The device is provided sterile for single-patient use. Clinical benefit is derived from the restoration of joint function and relief of pain associated with degenerative or inflammatory joint conditions.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. In vitro hip wear simulator testing compared the CONSERVE® Total Femoral Head to the Metal TRANSCEND® Femoral Head (both 54mm diameter) over 5 million cycles using orbital bearing machines. Results showed the CONSERVE® device had an average of 10 times lower volumetric run-in wear rate and 3.2 times lower cumulative volumetric wear than the predicate. Note: In vitro simulator results do not quantitatively predict clinical wear performance.
Technological Characteristics
Material: Wrought cobalt-chromium-molybdenum (CoCr) alloy. Design: Superfinished articulating surface; WMT12/14 taper connection. Sizes: 36mm to 56mm. Energy source: None (mechanical implant). Sterilization: Sterilized.
Indications for Use
Indicated for skeletally mature patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty for non-inflammatory degenerative joint disease (osteoarthritis, avascular necrosis, ankylosis, protrusio acetabuli, painful hip dysplasia), inflammatory degenerative joint disease (rheumatoid arthritis), correction of functional deformity, or revision procedures.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A hip joint metal/metal semi-constrained, with a cemented acetabular component, prosthesis is a two-part device intended to be implanted to replace a hip joint. The device limits translation and rotation in one or more planes via the geometry of its articulating surfaces. It has no linkage across-the-joint. This generic type of device includes prostheses that consist of a femoral and an acetabular component, both made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum. This generic type of device is limited to those prostheses intended for use with bone cement (§ 888.3027).
