Intended Use
The Equinoxe Shoulder System is indicated for use in skeletally mature individuals with degenerative diseases or fractures of the glenohumeral joint where total or hemi- arthroplasty is determined by the surgeon to be the preferred method of treatment. The cemented primary humeral stem, long/revision stems and all Equinoxe glenoids are intended for cemented fixation. The press-fit humeral stems are intended for press-fit applications but may be used with bone cement at the discretion the surgeon. The reverse humeral components are intended to be used in cemented applications or in revision cases when the humeral component is well-fixed/stable, as deemed by the orthopaedic surgeon. Humeral Heads are intended for use in cemented and press-fit applications. Clinical indications for the PRIMARY (P), LONG/REVISION (L), and FRACTURE (F) humeral components are as follows: [Table of indications omitted for brevity as per instructions to concatenate]. The Equinoxe Reverse Shoulder System is indicated for use in skeletally mature individuals with degenerative diseases of the glenohumeral joint and a grossly deficient, irreparable rotator cuff. The Equinoxe Reverse Shoulder is also indicated for a failed glenohumeral joint replacement with loss of rotator cuff function resulting in superior migration of the humeral head. To restore mobility from previous procedures (e.g. previous fusion). The Equinoxe Platform Fracture Stem is indicated for use in skeletally mature individuals with acute fracture of the proximal humerus and displacement of the tuberosities, displaced 3- and 4part fractures of the proximal humerus (hemi-arthroplasty), or acute fracture of the proximal humerus with failure of the glenohumeral joint (primary total shoulder arthroplasty). The Equinoxe Platform Fracture Stem is also indicated for acute fracture of the proximal humerus in combination with degenerative diseases of the glenohumeral joint and a grossly deficient, irreparable rotator cuff resulting in superior migration of the humeral head (reverse total shoulder arthroplasty). The Equinoxe Platform Fracture Stem is indicated for cemented use only.
Device Story
Shoulder prosthesis component; replicator plates for Equinoxe Shoulder System. Modification of existing plates; features shortened morse taper height for attachment to humeral head. Used in orthopedic surgery; implanted by surgeons to restore joint function in patients with degenerative disease or fractures. Device acts as interface between humeral stem and head; maintains compatibility with existing Equinoxe system implants and instruments. Benefits include restoration of joint mobility and stability in revision or primary arthroplasty cases.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Humeral head pull-off testing performed per ASTM F2009-00 to verify taper engagement strength. Cadaveric validation performed to confirm on-axis impaction of the humeral head.
Technological Characteristics
Shoulder prosthesis components (replicator plates). Materials: Biocompatible metals/polymers conforming to industry standards. Design: Morse taper interface with reduced height compared to predicates. Connectivity: None (mechanical implant). Sterilization: Same as predicate processes.
Indications for Use
Indicated for skeletally mature patients with degenerative glenohumeral joint disease, fractures, or failed prior arthroplasty. Specific populations include those with rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, osteonecrosis, post-traumatic degeneration, congenital abnormalities, humeral head fractures with tuberosity displacement, and irreparable rotator cuff deficiency. Contraindicated in patients where arthrodesis or resectional arthroplasty is preferred.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A shoulder joint metal/polymer semi-constrained cemented prosthesis is a device intended to be implanted to replace a shoulder 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 have a humeral resurfacing component made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum, and a glenoid resurfacing component made of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene, and is limited to those prostheses intended for use with bone cement (§ 888.3027).

#### Device Description:
This submission proposes modifying the Exactech Equinoxe Replicator Plates and Fixed Angled Replicator Plates cleared under 510(k) #K042021 and #K102951. The proposed modifications are as follows:
- 1. The proposed replicator plates and the fixed angled replicator plates will attach to the humeral head using a morse taper that is half the height of the morse taper of the anatomic replicator plates and fixed angled replicator plates cleared in 510(k) #K042021 and 510(k) #K102951.
The proposed Exactech Equinoxe Replicator Plates, and Fixed Angled Replicator Plates are intended to be used with the same Equinoxe Shoulder system components described in 510(k). #K042021 and #K102951 as cited predicates.
#### Intended Use of the Device:
The Equinoxe Shoulder System is indicated for use in skeletally mature individuals with degenerative diseases or fractures of the glenohumeral joint where total or hemi- arthroplasty is determined by the surgeon to be the preferred method of treatment.
- The cemented primary humeral stem, long/revision stems and all Equinoxe . glenoids are intended for cemented fixation.
- The press-fit humeral stems are intended for press-fit applications but may be used with . bone cement at the discretion the surgeon.
- The reverse humeral components are intended to be used in cemented applications or in . revision cases when the humeral component is well-fixed/stable, as deemed by the orthopaedic surgeon.
- Humeral Heads are intended for use in cemented and press-fit applications. .
Clinical indications for the PRIMARY (P), LONG/REVISION (L), and FRACTURE (F) humeral components are as follows:

The Equinoxe Reverse Shoulder System is indicated for use in skeletally mature individuals with degenerative diseases of the glenohumeral joint and a grossly deficient, irreparable rotator cuff. The Equinoxe Reverse Shoulder is also indicated for a failed glenohumeral joint replacement with loss of rotator cuff function resulting in superior migration of the humeral head. The Equinoxe Platform Fracture Stem is indicated for use in skeletally manure individuals with acute fracture of the proximal humerus and displacement of the tuberosities, displaced 3- and 4pait fractures of the proximal humerus (hemi-arthroplasty), or acute fracture of the proximal humerus with failure of the glenohumeral joint (primary total shoulder arthroplasty). The Equinoxe Platform Fracture Stem is also indicated for acute fracture of the proximal humerus in combination with degenerative diseases of the glenohumeral joint and a grossly deficient, irreparable rotator cuff resulting in superior migration of the humeral head (reverse total shoulder arthroplasty). The Equinoxe Platform Fracture Stem is indicated for cemented use only.
# Rationale for Substantial Equivalence:
Intended Use / Indications for Use - Proposed and predicate devices have identical indications for use.
Materials - Proposed and predicate devices are composed of identical biocompatible materials conforming to recognized industry standards for permanent implants.
Design Features - Proposed and predicate devices have the same key design features, and mate with all existing implant and instruments of the Equinoxe shoulder system.
Dimensions - The proposed replicator plates and fixed angled replicator plates have the same dimensions, same taper geometry, and mate with all existing humeral heads; with the exception of the shortened taper height.
Packaging and Sterilization - Proposed and predicate devices are packaged and sterilized using the same materials and processes.
Device Shelf Life - Proposed and predicate devices have the same shelf life.
