## Intended Use

In total hip arthroplasty for reduction or relief of pain and/or improved hip function in skeletally mature patients with the following conditions: non-inflammatory degenerative joint disease such as osteoarthritis, avascular necrosis, ankylosis, protrusio acetabuli, and painful hip dysplasia; inflammatory degenerative joint disease such as rheumatoid arthritis; correction of functional deformity; revision procedures where other treatments or devices have failed; and, treatment of nonunion, femoral neck and trochanteric fractures of the proximal femur with head involvement that are unmanageable using other techniques. This device is for cemented use only.

## Device Story

Monolithic femoral hip stem component; manufactured from cast cobalt chrome alloy (ASTM F-75). Available in straight (standard or reduced flare) or bowed configurations with calcar platform. Designed for use with bone cement; compatible with cobalt chrome or alumina ceramic femoral heads. Intended for total hip arthroplasty in skeletally mature patients. Implanted by orthopedic surgeons in clinical/OR settings to restore hip function and reduce pain. Clinical benefit derived from mechanical stabilization of the proximal femur in patients with degenerative joint disease, fractures, or failed prior interventions.

## Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only; fatigue strength testing performed to demonstrate mechanical integrity.

## Technological Characteristics

Material: Cast cobalt chrome alloy (ASTM F-75). Design: Monolithic femoral stem, straight or bowed, with calcar platform. Fixation: Cemented. Compatibility: Cobalt chrome or alumina ceramic femoral heads. Energy source: None (mechanical implant).

## Regulatory Identification

A hip joint metal/polymer semi-constrained cemented 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 includes prostheses that have a femoral component made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum, and an acetabular resurfacing component made of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene and is limited to those prostheses intended for use with bone cement (§ 888.3027).
