The AltiVate Reverse® Shoulder Prosthesis is indicated as a reverse shoulder replacement for patients with a functional deltoid muscle and a grossly deficient rotator cuff joint suffering from pain and dysfunction due to:

• Severe arthropathy with a grossly deficient rotator cuff;
• Previously failed joint replacement with a grossly deficient rotator cuff;
• Fracture of glenohumeral joint from trauma or pathologic conditions of the shoulder including humeral head fracture, displaced 3- or 4-part fractures of proximal humerus, or reconstruction after tumor resection;
• Bone defect in proximal humerus;
• Non-inflammatory degenerative disease including osteoarthritis and avascular necrosis of the natural humeral head and/or glenoid;
• Inflammatory arthritis including rheumatoid arthritis;
• Correction of functional deformity.

The glenoid baseplate is intended for cementless application with addition of screws for fixation. This device may also be indicated in the salvage of previously failed surgical attempts for anatomic and hemi procedures.

All RSP® Monoblock and AltiVate Reverse® humeral stems are intended for cemented or cementless use.
