Intended Use

This prosthesis is intended to be implanted to replace a shoulder joint. Prosthetic replacement with this device may be indicated for the treatment of severe pain or significant disability in degenerative, rheumatoid, or traumatic disease of the glenohumeral joint; ununited humeral head fractures of long duration; irreducible 3- and 4-part proximal humeral fractures; avascular necrosis of the humeral head; or other difficult clinical management problems where arthrodesis or resectional arthroplasty is not acceptable. The assembled humeral component may be used alone for hemiarthroplasty or combined with the glenoid component for total shoulder arthroplasty. Humeral heads with heights greater than 27 mm may be used for difficult clinical management problems involving rotator cuff deficiency where arthrodesis or conventional nonconstrained arthroplasty is not acceptable.

Device Story

New Zimmer Shoulder System is a modular shoulder prosthesis for total shoulder arthroplasty or hemiarthroplasty. Components include cobalt-chrome alloy humeral stems and heads, and a UHMWPE keeled glenoid component. Humeral heads feature female Morse-type tapers for assembly with stems. Humeral stems allow for press-fit or cemented fixation; glenoid component requires cement. Device is implanted by orthopedic surgeons in a clinical/surgical setting to replace the glenohumeral joint. Output is a mechanical reconstruction of the shoulder joint, intended to alleviate pain and restore function in patients with severe joint disease or fractures. Benefits include improved mobility and pain reduction for patients failing conservative management.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Performance testing conducted on the taper and glenoid component to verify mechanical integrity and safety.

Technological Characteristics

Modular and monoblock cobalt-chrome alloy humeral stems; cobalt-chrome humeral heads with female Morse-type tapers; keeled UHMWPE glenoid component. Fixation: press-fit or cemented (humeral), cemented only (glenoid). Nonconstrained design.

Indications for Use

Indicated for patients requiring shoulder joint replacement due to severe pain or disability from degenerative, rheumatoid, or traumatic glenohumeral disease, ununited humeral head fractures, irreducible 3- or 4-part proximal humeral fractures, avascular necrosis, or other conditions where arthrodesis/resection is unacceptable. Includes hemiarthroplasty or total shoulder arthroplasty options. Specific humeral heads (>27mm) indicated for rotator cuff deficiency.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

A shoulder joint metal/polymer non-constrained cemented prosthesis is a device intended to be implanted to replace a shoulder joint. The device limits minimally (less than normal anatomic constraints) translation in one or more planes. It has no linkage across-the-joint. This generic type of device includes prostheses that have a humeral 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).
