Intended Use

Signature Orthopaedics' Fusion Taper System is intended to replace a hip joint where bone stock is sufficient to support the implant. When a surgeon has selected prosthetic replacement as the preferred treatment, the devices are indicated for: - . Non-inflammatory degenerative joint disease including osteoarthritis or avascular necrosis - . Inflammatory joint disease including rheumatoid arthritis - . Correction of functional deformity including congenital hip dysplasia - . Traumatic injury involving the hip joint including traumatic arthritis or femoral head or neck fracture - . Failed previous hip surgery including internal fixation or joint fusion, reconstruction, hemi-arthroplasty, surface replacement, or total replacement Signature Orthopaedics' Fusion Taper System is intended for cementless fixation only.

Device Story

Modular hip prosthesis system comprising femoral heads and taper sleeves; used in total hip arthroplasty. Device components connect to femoral stems via 12/14 inner and 16/18 outer tapers. Intended for surgical implantation by orthopedic surgeons in clinical settings. System replaces damaged hip joints to restore function and reduce pain. Benefits include mechanical stabilization of the hip joint in patients with degenerative, inflammatory, or traumatic conditions. Operates as a passive orthopedic implant; no electronic or software components.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data. Bench testing only. Performance verified via range of motion analysis, component connection strength, fretting corrosion testing, burst strength, fatigue and post-fatigue testing on ceramic heads, and rim impingement evaluation. Device validated as non-pyrogenic.

Technological Characteristics

Modular femoral heads (alumina matrix per ISO 6474-2) and taper sleeves (Ti6Al4V per ISO 5832-3). Features 12/14 inner and 16/18 outer tapers. Designed for cementless fixation. Passive orthopedic implant; no energy source or software.

Indications for Use

Indicated for patients requiring hip joint replacement due to non-inflammatory degenerative joint disease (osteoarthritis, avascular necrosis), inflammatory joint disease (rheumatoid arthritis), functional deformity (congenital hip dysplasia), traumatic injury (traumatic arthritis, femoral head/neck fracture), or failed previous hip surgery (fixation, fusion, reconstruction, hemi-arthroplasty, surface/total replacement). Requires sufficient bone stock. Cementless fixation only.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

A hip joint metal/ceramic/polymer semi-constrained cemented or nonporous uncemented prosthesis is a device intended to be implanted to replace a hip joint. This device limits translation and rotation in one or more planes via the geometry of its articulating surfaces. It has no linkage across-the-joint. The two-part femoral component consists of a femoral stem made of alloys to be fixed in the intramedullary canal of the femur by impaction with or without use of bone cement. The proximal end of the femoral stem is tapered with a surface that ensures positive locking with the spherical ceramic (aluminium oxide, A12 03 ) head of the femoral component. The acetabular component is made of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene or ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene reinforced with nonporous metal alloys, and used with or without bone cement.
