What is it indicated for?

The ZMR Hip System is indicated for cementless revision hip arthroplasty. Arthroplasty should be performed only when more conservative methods of treatment have failed to provide symptomatic relief or when there is progressive disability.

Indications for use read by OCR from a scanned FDA summary, so letters may be misread. Check the PDF before quoting it.
