## Intended Use

The Stryker Orthopaedic Acetabular Shells for use with the Total Hip Instruments are intended for use in total hip arthroplasty and are intended for either primary or revision total hip arthroplasty. The Stryker Orthopaedic Hip Implant Stems for use with the Total Hip Instruments are intended for use in total or hemi-arthroplasty of the hip and are intended for either primary or revision procedures. The Direct Superior Approach does not change the intended use of the subject devices.

## Device Story

System comprises acetabular shells, femoral stems, and manual surgical instruments (retractors, cup impactors, drivers, guides, reamers). Used in total or hemi-hip arthroplasty via Direct Superior Approach. Implants provide cementless fixation. Instruments are hand-held, reusable, non-sterile. Surgeon uses instruments to prepare acetabulum and femur for implant placement. Device facilitates hip reconstruction; restores joint function; addresses pain and mobility issues in patients with degenerative or traumatic hip conditions. No change to fundamental scientific technology or materials compared to predicate devices.

## Clinical Evidence

No clinical data required; bench testing not required as submission is limited to a labeling modification for a surgical protocol.

## Technological Characteristics

Materials: Titanium (Ti-6Al-4V) alloy, commercially pure (CP) titanium plasma spray, CP titanium, and PureFix® hydroxylapatite (HA). Design: Cementless acetabular shells and femoral stems. Instruments: Hand-held, reusable, non-sterile surgical tools. No software or electronic components.

## Regulatory Identification

A hip joint metal/polymer/metal semi-constrained porous-coated uncemented 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 has a femoral component made of a cobalt-chromium-molybdenum (Co-Cr-Mo) alloy or a titanium-aluminum-vanadium (Ti-6Al-4V) alloy and an acetabular component composed of an ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene articulating bearing surface fixed in a metal shell made of Co-Cr-Mo or Ti-6Al-4V. The femoral stem and acetabular shell have a porous coating made of, in the case of Co-Cr-Mo substrates, beads of the same alloy, and in the case of Ti-6Al-4V substrates, fibers of commercially pure titanium or Ti-6Al-4V alloy. The porous coating has a volume porosity between 30 and 70 percent, an average pore size between 100 and 1,000 microns, interconnecting porosity, and a porous coating thickness between 500 and 1,500 microns. The generic type of device has a design to achieve biological fixation to bone without the use of bone cement.
