• Attributes: Therapeutic

Intended Use

The VerSys Epoch Fullcoat Hip Prosthesis is indicated for: Patients suffering from severe hip pain and disability due to rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, traumatic arthritis, polyarthritis, collagen disorders, avascular necrosis of the femoral head, and nonunion of previous fractures of the femur. Patients with congenital hip dysplasia, protrusio acetabuli, or slipped capital femoral epiphysis. Patients suffering from disability due to previous fusion. Patients with acute femoral neck fractures.

Device Story

VerSys Epoch Fullcoat Hip Prosthesis is a modular, metal-polymer composite femoral stem for total hip arthroplasty; replaces proximal human femur. Features 12/14 Morse-type taper for modular femoral head attachment; trapezoidal proximal body geometry; available in standard and large metaphysis sizes (13mm-22mm); standard and extended neck offsets. Used in clinical settings by orthopedic surgeons to restore joint kinematics and stability. Device provides structural replacement for damaged hip joints; benefits patients by alleviating pain and restoring mobility. No software or AI components.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data.

Technological Characteristics

Modular femoral stem; metal-polymer composite construction; 12/14 Morse-type taper; trapezoidal proximal body geometry; standard and extended neck offsets. Uncemented, porous-coated design. No software or electronic components.

Indications for Use

Indicated for patients with severe hip pain/disability due to rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, traumatic arthritis, polyarthritis, collagen disorders, avascular necrosis, nonunion of femoral fractures, congenital hip dysplasia, protrusio acetabuli, slipped capital femoral epiphysis, previous fusion, or acute femoral neck fractures.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

A hip joint metal/polymer/metal semi-constrained porous-coated uncemented prosthesis is a 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 has a femoral component made of a cobalt-chromium-molybdenum (Co-Cr-Mo) alloy or a titanium-aluminum-vanadium (Ti-6Al-4V) alloy and an acetabular component composed of an ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene articulating bearing surface fixed in a metal shell made of Co-Cr-Mo or Ti-6Al-4V. The femoral stem and acetabular shell have a porous coating made of, in the case of Co-Cr-Mo substrates, beads of the same alloy, and in the case of Ti-6Al-4V substrates, fibers of commercially pure titanium or Ti-6Al-4V alloy. The porous coating has a volume porosity between 30 and 70 percent, an average pore size between 100 and 1,000 microns, interconnecting porosity, and a porous coating thickness between 500 and 1,500 microns. The generic type of device has a design to achieve biological fixation to bone without the use of bone cement.
