Intended Use
The subject humeral head devices can be mated with approved humeral stem components from the Cofield Total Shoulder System previously cleared for market under K955767. 3D Humeral Heads are indicated for use as orthopedic implants for the partial or total replacement of the human shoulder joint articulating either directly against the glenoid face or a compatible glenoid component, respectively. 3D Humeral Heads are intended for use with bone cement only (cemented fixation) and for single use only. 3D Humeral Heads are intended for the following indications: Proximal Humeral Prosthesis – (1) complex, acute fractures or fracture-dislocations of the humeral head (e.g. trauma - three and four-part injuries in the Neer classification, or head splitting, or head impression fractures); (2) complex, chronic fractures or fracture-dislocations of the humeral head with malunion, non-union of a small osteoporotic head fragment, or chronic dislocation with loss of humeral head cartilage, or large impression fractures; (3) avascular necrosis with intact glenoid cartilage; and (4) selected patients with arthritis who do not have adequate scapular bone to support a glenoid component or must engage in moderately heavy activities. Total Shoulder Arthroplasty (when used in conjunction with a compatible glenoid component) severe destruction of the glenohumeral articular surfaces with intractable chronic pain in rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthriis, traumatic arthritis, cuff tear arthroplasty, ancient septic arthritis, avascular necrosis with secondary glenoid changes, radiation necrosis, and other failed reconstructive procedures.
Device Story
3D Humeral Heads are orthopedic implants for shoulder hemiarthroplasty or total shoulder arthroplasty; designed for cemented fixation to compatible Cofield Total Shoulder System humeral stems. Implants replace damaged humeral head articular surfaces; articulate against natural glenoid or compatible glenoid components. Used by orthopedic surgeons in clinical/surgical settings. Benefits include restoration of joint function and pain relief for patients with severe humeral head destruction or trauma. Device is single-use.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Mechanical humeral head distraction testing and ion release analysis performed to verify performance characteristics. No clinical data provided.
Technological Characteristics
Materials: Forged cobalt chrome (ASTM F799) for humeral heads; titanium (Ti-6Al-4V, ASTM F1472) for taper sleeves. Design: Semi-constrained cemented prosthesis. Connectivity: None. Sterilization: Not specified.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients requiring partial or total shoulder joint replacement due to complex acute/chronic humeral fractures, fracture-dislocations, avascular necrosis, rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, traumatic arthritis, cuff tear arthroplasty, septic arthritis, or radiation necrosis. Contraindicated for patients without adequate scapular bone for glenoid components (unless hemiarthroplasty is performed).
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).

#### Technological Characteristics:
3D Humeral Heads are similar to the legally marketed predicate devices listed above. All of these devices are indicated for total shoulder arthroplasty or hemiarthroplasty, are similar in design to the 3D Humeral Heads and have the same technological characterisitcs.
#### Performance Characterisitcs:
Mechanical humeral head distraction testing and ion release analysis was performed on these devices. Results indicate that the subject devices meet or exceed acceptable performance. Data indicate that 3D Humeral Heads are substantially equivalent to legally marketed devices.
