## Indications for use
The Univers Revers CA humeral head and adapters are indicated for: * salvage of a failed reverse total shoulder, with an irreparable rotator cuff tear and a well-fixed humeral stem, to an anatomic hemi-shoulder replacement; or * conversion of a primary reverse total shoulder, for the relief of pain secondary to severe rotator cuff arthropathy and an irreparable rotator cuff tear, to anatomic hemi-shoulder replacement when insufficient glenoid bone stock is encountered intraoperatively after the humeral stem has been implanted. The patient's joint must be anatomically and structurally suited to receive the selected implant(s), and a functional deltoid muscle is necessary to use the device.
