Intended Use
All Exactech Hip Systems are indicated for use in skeletally mature individuals undergoing primary surgery for hip replacement due to osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, osteonecrosis, post-traumatic degenerative problems of the hip, and for treatment of proximal femoral fractures where prosthetic replacement is determined by the surgeon as the preferred treatment. Components of Exactech Hip Systems are also potentially indicated for ankylosing spondylitis, congenital hip dysplasia, revision of failed previous reconstructions where sufficient bone stock is present, and to restore mobility resulting from previous fusion.
Device Story
Modular two-piece bipolar endoprosthesis; consists of spherical cobalt chrome shell and interchangeable polyethylene liner inserts. Used in orthopedic surgery for hip replacement. Surgeon selects appropriate size from 24 shell options (38-61mm) and 4 liner options (22, 26, 28, 32mm ID). Device restores hip joint function and mobility in patients with degenerative conditions or fractures. Performance verified via bench testing including cam-out, assembly, and range of motion evaluations.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Functional testing and engineering analysis conducted to verify implant performance, including cam-out testing, assembly testing, and range of motion evaluation.
Indicated for skeletally mature patients requiring primary hip replacement due to osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, osteonecrosis, post-traumatic degeneration, or proximal femoral fractures. Also indicated for ankylosing spondylitis, congenital hip dysplasia, and revision of failed reconstructions with sufficient bone stock. Contraindicated in patients with active infection, insufficient bone stock, neuromuscular disorders affecting hip control, or high risk of early failure due to weight, age, or activity level. L-Series specifically contraindicated for patients with acetabular degenerative changes or pelvic fractures.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A hip joint femoral (hemi-hip) metal/polymer cemented or uncemented prosthesis is a two-part device intended to be implanted to replace the head and neck of the femur. This generic type of device includes prostheses that have a femoral component made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum, and a snap-fit acetabular component made of an alloy, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum, and ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene. This generic type of device may be fixed to the bone with bone cement (§ 888.3027) or implanted by impaction.

# Exactech® AcuMatch™ Integrated Hip System L-Series Bipolar Endoprosthesis
# 510(k) Summary of Safety and Effectiveness Special 510(k)
# CONTRAINDICATIONS
Exactech Hip Systems are contraindicated in patients with active infection, patients without sufficient bone stock to allow appropriate insertion and fixation of the prosthesis, in neuromuscular disorders that do not allow control of the hip joint, and in patients whose weight, age, or activity level would cause the surgeon to expect early failure of the system. The L-Series unipolar and bipolar endoprostheses are also contraindicated for use in patients with evidence of degenerative changes in the acetabulum and/or pelvic fractures.
#### DESIGN
The AcuMatch L-Series Bipolar is a modular two piece device consisting of a spherical cobalt chrome shell (ASTM 1537 or ASTM F75) and interchangeable polyethylene liner inserts (ASTM F638). The metal head components come in 24 sizes (38mm through 61mm). The liner options include 22, 26, 28 and 32 mm inside diameter (1.D.) offerings. The implants are supplied sterile to an assurance level (SAL) of 10°.
## PERFORMANCE DATA
Functional testing and engineering analysis were conducted to verify that the implant performance would be adequate for anticipated in vivo load applications. This performance data includes cam-out testing, assembly testing, and a range of motion evaluation.
