Intended Use
The TaperSet™ Hip System is designed for total or partial hip arthroplasty and is intended to be used with compatible components of the Consensus Hip System. A. Significantly impaired joints resulting from rheumatoid, osteo, and post-traumatic arthritis. B. Revision of failed femoral head replacement, cup arthroplasty or other hip procedures. C. Proximal femoral fractures. D. Avascular necrosis of the femoral head. E. Non-union of proximal femoral neck fractures. F. Other indications such as congenital dysplasia, arthrodesis conversion, coxa magna, coxa plana, coxa vara, coxa valga, developmental conditions, metabolic and tumorous conditions, osteomalacia, osteoporosis, pseudarthrosis conversion, and structural abnormalities. The TaperSet™ hip stem is indicated for cementless use.
Device Story
TaperSet Hip System RDP Stems are monolithic titanium alloy femoral hip stems for total or partial hip arthroplasty. Device features dual wedge geometry, 135° neck-shaft angle, 12/14 Morse taper trunnion, and proximal plasma-sprayed porous CPTi coating. Designed for cementless fixation. Used by orthopedic surgeons in clinical settings. Compatible with Consensus Hip System components including CoCr, zirconia, and Biolox delta ceramic heads, unipolar/bipolar heads, and UHMWPE inserts. RDP (Reduced Distal Profile) modification allows for anatomical fit in specific patient populations. Surgeon selects appropriate size (10.5mm to 24mm) and offset to restore hip biomechanics. Provides stable femoral component for joint replacement, aiming to alleviate pain and restore function in patients with degenerative or traumatic hip conditions.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Bench testing only; engineering analysis of design modifications confirmed equivalence to predicate devices.
Indicated for patients requiring total or partial hip arthroplasty due to rheumatoid, osteoarthritis, post-traumatic arthritis, failed previous hip procedures, proximal femoral fractures, avascular necrosis, non-union of femoral neck fractures, congenital dysplasia, or other structural/metabolic bone conditions. Indicated for cementless use.
Regulatory Classification
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.

### Device Description:
The TaperSet Hip System (THS) is a monolithic, titanium alloy tapered hip stem design with a proximal, plasma sprayed, porous CPTi coating. The stem has a dual wedge geometry and is available in both standard and 7mm lateral offsets in sizes designated as 7.5mm to 24mm. The stems feature a neck shaft angle of 135° and a 12/14 Morse taper trunnion. The TaperSet Hip System is designed for total or partial hip arthroplasty and is intended to be used with compatible components of the Consensus Hip System. The stem is compatible with previously cleared CoCr heads, zirconia or Biolox delta ceramic heads, unipolar heads, bipolar heads, UHMWPE inserts and acetabular cups. The modification addressed here is the addition of a line of stems with a reduced distal profile (RDP) in sizes 10.5mm to 24mm.
### Indications for Use:
The TaperSet™ Hip System is designed for total or partial hip arthroplasty and is intended to be used with compatible components of the Consensus Hip System.
The indications for use are:
- A. Significantly impaired joints resulting from rheumatoid, osteo, and post-traumatic arthritis.
- B. Revision of failed femoral head replacement, cup arthroplasty or other hip procedures.
{1}------------------------------------------------
- C. Proximal femoral fractures.
/
- D. Avascular necrosis of the femoral head.
- E. Non-union of proximal femoral neck fractures.
- Other indications such as congenital dysplasia, arthrodesis conversion, coxa magna, coxa plana, F. coxa vara, coxa valga, developmental conditions, metabolic and tumorous conditions, osteomalacia, osteoporosis, pseudarthrosis conversion, and structural abnormalities.
KI21263
The TaperSet™ hip stem is indicated for cementless use.
## Substantial Equivalence:
## Technological Characteristics/Substantial Equivalence:
The new Reduced Distal Profile (RDP) stems for the TaperSet Hip System have the identical neck and taper design, porous coating, and sizing as the predicate TaperSet stems cleared under K 102399 in design and indications. A reduced distal profile femoral hip stem design was previously cleared by FDA under K101086 for the Biomet Taperloc Complete Hip System. The subject Consensus RDP stems are still compatible with previously cleared CoCr heads, zirconia and Biolox delta ceramic heads, unipolar heads, bipolar heads, UHMWPE inserts and acetabular cups. Based on the material, characterization data, and geometry, the TaperSet Hip RDP stem is substantially equivalent to the legally marketed predicates.
## Non-Clinical Performance Data:
No additional non-clinical testing was performed because there was no proximal design change from the predicate TaperSet and distally the new smallest size is still larger than the smallest predicate TaperSet stem which was previously tested.
Based upon engineering analysis of the design modification the new reduced distal profile stems for the TaperSet Hip System by Consensus are substantially equivalent to devices currently marketed. Therefore, the device is as safe, as effective, and performs at least as safely and effectively as legally marketed predicates.
