What is it indicated for?
The Bio-Modular® Reverse Shoulder is indicated for use in patients whose shoulder joint
has a grossly deficient rotator cuff with severe arthropathy and/or previously failed
shoulder joint replacement with a grossly deficient rotator cuff. The patient must be
anatomically and structurally suited to receive the implants and a functional deltoid
muscle is necessary.
The Bio-Modular® Reverse Shoulder is indicated for primary, fracture, or revision total
shoulder replacement for the relief of pain and significant disability due to gross rotator
cuff deficiency.
Indications for use read by OCR from a scanned FDA summary, so letters may be misread. Check the PDF before quoting it.
