Read the full statement (181 words)
In an anatomic shoulder configuration, the Humeris Shoulder System is indicated for use in total and hemi-shoulder replacement to treat:
- A severely painful and/or disabled joint resulting from osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis;
- Other difficult clinical problems where shoulder arthrodesis or resection arthroplasty are not acceptable (e.g. revision of a previously implanted primary component, a humeral plate or a humeral nail).
In a reverse shoulder configuration, the Humeris Shoulder is indicated for primary or revision total shoulder arthroplasty for the relief of pain and to improve function in patients with a massive and non-repairable rotator cuff tear.
The patient’s joint must be anatomically and structurally suited to receive the selected implants and a functional deltoid muscle is necessary to use the device.
The humeral stem of the Humeris Cementless Shoulder is intended for cementless use only. The humeral stem of the Humeris Cemented Shoulder is intended for cemented use only. The glenoid components of the Humeris Shoulder System are intended for cemented use only. The glenoid baseplate component is intended for cementless use with the addition of screws for fixation.
Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
