Indications for Use
The Aequalis Glenoid Guides are intended to be used as surgical instruments to assist in the intraoperative positioning of glenoid components used with total anatomic shoulder arthroplasty procedures using anatomic landmarks that are identifiable on patient-specific preoperative CT-scans. The BLUEPRINT 3D planning software is intended to be used as a medical software to assist in pre-operative surgical planning for shoulder surgery.
Device Story
BLUEPRINT Patient Specific Instrumentation consists of Aequalis Glenoid Guides (hardware) and BLUEPRINT 3D planning software. Software imports patient CT-scan data (DICOM) on standard PCs; allows surgeons to visualize, measure, reconstruct, and annotate anatomy; plan glenoid implant positioning; and design patient-specific drill guides. Software generates a surgery report and 3D file for guide fabrication. Hardware (polyamide 2200) is used intraoperatively by orthopedic surgeons to facilitate accurate glenoid component placement during total anatomic shoulder arthroplasty. System relies on identifiable anatomic landmarks on CT scans. Benefits include improved surgical planning and intraoperative positioning accuracy for shoulder arthroplasty.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical trials performed. Evidence consists of non-clinical bench testing using cadaveric specimens and patient data. Validation included seating, reaming, orientation/angle, and segmentation accuracy tests. Results demonstrated compliance with acceptance criteria for version/inclination angles, subluxation measurements, and 3D reconstruction accuracy. Clinical case series compared pre-operative plans to post-operative implant positions with acceptable results.
Technological Characteristics
Hardware: Polyamide 2200 (USP Class VI compatible). Software: 3D planning application for Windows/Mac OS. Connectivity: DICOM import from CT scans. Sterilization: Non-sterile (single-use). Algorithm: Geometric reconstruction and measurement based on CT data.
Indications for Use
Indicated for adult patients undergoing total anatomic shoulder arthroplasty. Used to assist in intraoperative positioning of glenoid components based on patient-specific preoperative CT scans. Contraindicated for diagnostic purposes.
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).
