Intended Use
The Durasul Bipolar is intended for non-cemented use in a hip hemi-arthroplasty in which it assumes the function of the natural femoral head in conjunction with a prosthetic femoral head component. Specific diagnostic indications for use of a bipolar include displaced femoral neck fractures, avascular necrosis of the femoral head, and non-union of femoral neck fractures.
Device Story
Durasul Bipolar is a hemi-hip prosthesis consisting of a polyethylene insert and an outer CoCr shell. Device functions as a replacement for the natural femoral head in hip hemi-arthroplasty procedures. The CoCr shell articulates with the patient's acetabular cartilage, while the internal polyethylene insert articulates with a 22mm or 26mm prosthetic femoral head. Available in multiple sizes to match patient anatomy. Used by orthopedic surgeons in clinical settings to restore hip joint function and treat femoral neck pathology. Benefits include restoration of joint mechanics and mobility for patients with femoral head necrosis or fractures.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only; no clinical data provided.
Technological Characteristics
Components: Polyethylene insert and CoCr shell. Design: Bipolar hemi-hip prosthesis. Sizes: Multiple sizes available for 22mm or 26mm femoral heads. Fixation: Non-cemented.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients requiring hip hemi-arthroplasty due to displaced femoral neck fractures, avascular necrosis of the femoral head, or non-union of femoral neck fractures.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A hip joint femoral (hemi-hip) metal/polymer cemented or uncemented prosthesis is a two-part device intended to be implanted to replace the head and neck of the femur. This generic type of device includes prostheses that have a femoral component made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum, and a snap-fit acetabular component made of an alloy, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum, and ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene. This generic type of device may be fixed to the bone with bone cement (§ 888.3027) or implanted by impaction.

### PREDICATE DEVICES:
- Centerpulse Orthopedics, Inc. Bipolar (K873815) and .
- Exactech's AcuMatch L-Series Bipolar (K013211). .
### DEVICE DESCRIPTION:
The Durasul Bipolar consists of a polyethylene insert/liner and an outer CoCr shell. In vivo, the CoCr shell articulates directly with well-preserved articular cartilage while the Durasul insert articulates directly with a 22 or 26mm femoral head. The Durasul Bipolar components are available in a variety of sizes to allow the surgeon to replicate the natural anatomy of the hip joint as closely as possible when performing a hip hemi-arthroplasty.
#### INTENDED USE:
The Durasul Bipolar is intended for non-cemented use in a hip hemi-arthroplasty in which it assumes the function of the natural femoral head in conjunction with a prosthetic femoral head component. Specific diagnostic indications for use of a bipolar include displaced femoral neck fractures, avascular necrosis of the femoral head, and non-union of femoral neck fractures.
#### BASIS OF SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE:
Performance tests, design comparisons, and functional analyses conducted on the Durasul Bipolar demonstrate that this device is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.
