Intended Use
Total or hemi-shoulder replacement is indicated for: 1. A severely painful and/or disabled joint resulting from osteoarthritis, traumatic arthritis or rheumatoid arthritis; 2. Fracture-dislocations of the proximal humerus where the articular surface is severely comminuted, separated from its blood supply or where the surgeon's experience indicates that alternative methods of treatment are unsatisfactory; 3. Other difficult clinical problems where shoulder arthrodesis or resection arthroplasty are not acceptable (e.g., revision of a failed primary component). Hemi-shoulder replacement is also indicated for: 1. Ununited humeral head fractures; 2. Avascular necrosis of the humeral head. Only the titanium alloy humeral stem components and the cobalt-chrome alloy humeral stem components, which are marketed under either the Global Shoulder or Global Advantage Shoulder name, are intended for press-fit or cemented fixation. The glenoid components are for cemented use only.
Device Description
The Global Advantage Shoulder consists of a humeral stem and a humeral head. Like the predicate devices, the components are modular in that they employ a morse-type taper lock system, the modular head having the male taper and the body with the female taper. The humeral stem is manufactured titanium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V), while the humeral head is manufactured from cobalt chromium molybdenum alloy. The Global Advantage humeral stem is similar to the current Global humeral stem in that there are four proximal fins, a proximal collar, and a fluted distal stem. The fins are perforated with suture holes to accommodate the sutures necessary to reconstruct the proximal humerus. The Global Advantage humeral head is similar to the current Global head in that it is fitted with an identical locking taper, is semi-spherical in design, and is also available in an offset eccentric head.

DEVICE DESCRIPTION:

The Global Advantage Shoulder consists of a humeral stem and a humeral head. Like the predicate devices, the components are modular in that they employ a morse-type taper lock system, the modular head having the male taper and the body with the female taper. The humeral stem is manufactured titanium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V), while the humeral head is manufactured from cobalt chromium molybdenum alloy.

The Global Advantage humeral stem is similar to the current Global humeral stem in that there are four proximal fins, a proximal collar, and a fluted distal stem. The fins are perforated with suture holes to accommodate the sutures necessary to reconstruct the proximal humerus.

The Global Advantage humeral head is similar to the current Global head in that it is fitted with an identical locking taper, is semi-spherical in design, and is also available in an offset eccentric head.

INTENDED USE:

The Global Advantage Shoulder, humeral stem and humeral head, are intended for use in total or hemi-arthroplasty. When used for total shoulder arthroplasty, the subject components are designed to be used with the existing Global cemented glenoid components cleared in K905786 & K914000. The humeral stem is intended to be used with bone cement or in press-fit applications (cementless).

INDICATIONS FOR USE:

Total or hemi-shoulder replacement is indicated for:

    1. A severely painful and/or disabled joint resulting from osteoarthritis, traumatic arthritis or rheumatoid arthritis;
    1. Fracture-dislocations of the proximal humerus where the articular surface is severely comminuted, separated from its blood supply or where the surgeon's experience indicates that alternative methods of treatment are unsatisfactory;
    1. Other difficult clinical problems where shoulder arthrodesis or resection arthroplasty are not acceptable (e.g., revision of a failed primary component).

Hemi-shoulder replacement is also indicated for:

    1. Ununited humeral head fractures:
    1. Avascular necrosis of the humeral head.

Only the titanium alloy humeral stem components and the cobalt-chrome alloy humeral stem components, which are marketed under either the Global Shoulder or Global Advantage Shoulder name, are intended for press-fit or cemented fixation. The glenoid components are for cemented use only.

CAUTION: The cobalt-chrome alloy humeral components, which are marketed under the HRP Shoulder name and all glenoid components are for CEMENTED USE ONLY.

SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE:

The fundamental scientific technologies of the Global Advantage humeral stem and head have not changed from the FDA cleared (K911686, K974044 and K984541) Global Shoulder humeral stem and head. The intended use and indications for use of the Global Advantage humeral stem and humeral head have not changed from the FDA cleared (K911686) Global Shoulder, Global Eccentric Humeral Head (K974044) and Global Fx (K984541). The humeral stem is manufactured titanium alloy (Ti-6AL-4V), identical to the humeral component cleared in K911686. With the exception of minor design modifications, the Global Advantage humeral stem and humeral head are identical to the Global Shoulder devices cleared in K911686, K974044 and K984541.

Based on conformance with the design control procedures requirements as specified in 21 CFR 820.30, similarities of design, commonly used materials, sterilization processes, indications for use, and intended use, DePuy believes that the Global Advantage humeral stem and head are substantially equivalent to the FDA cleared (K911686 K974044 and K984541) Global Shoulder, Global Eccentric humeral head and Global Fx components.

CLASS III SUMMARY:

The most significant complication of total shoulder arthroplasty is currently loosening of the glenoid component. Revision surgery generally follows. Loosening rates for shoulder athroplasty range from 0% to 11%. The Global Total Shoulder addresses the issue of glenoid loosening in 3 ways:

  1. Most total shoulder designs rely on hand burring or sculpting to prepare the face of the glenoid bone to accept the prosthesis. This procedure is inaccurate and allows the glenoid prosthesis to seat only on the high points of the bone. With point contact, normal glenohumeral loading tends to rock loose the anchoring fin of the glenoid component. The Global Shoulder system features a glenoid reamer which machines the glenoid to the same radius as the back side of the glenoid prosthesis. These two congruent mating surfaces provide for optimal stress transfer through the range of glenohumeral motion. Loads are transferred through the prosthetic glenoid articular surface to the bone, thereby preventing high stresses in the anchoring fins or pegs.

  2. Due to the difference in elastic properties between the metal backing and the UHMWPe articular surface, and insufficient locking mechanisms two-piece glenoid components have a tendency to separate. The UHMWPe flexes more than the metal backing which causes the locking mechanism between the two components to fail. The Global Shoulder glenoid component is of a single piece UHMWPe construction, therefore, the possibility of component separation is eliminated.

  3. The Global Shoulder glenoid is available in two design variations, pegged and finned. The pegged glenoid component has five fixation pegs including one anterior and one posterior peg. These anterior-posterior pegs reduce the rocking type of motion that can cause glenoid loosening. The finned glenoid component has a traditional tapered fixation fin. The finned component could be used in revision cases where a trough already exists in the glenoid bone or in cases of poor glenoid bone stock.

Class III Summary and Certification (continued)

Other types of safety and effectiveness problems associated with total shoulder arthroplasty are also associated with other total joint replacements. These include:

  • · Change in position of the prosthesis.
  • · Early or late infection.
  • · Cardiovascular disorders (including venous thrombosis, pulmonary embolism, and myocardial infarction which may be related to the use of bone cement).
  • · Hematoma and delayed wound healing.
  • · Pneumonia and atelectasis.
  • · Subluxation or dislocation of the implant due to size selection, positioning of components and/or muscle and fibrous tissue laxity.
  • · Failure to relieve pain.
  • · Failure to restore range of motion.

In order to reduce the chance of complications with a total shoulder arthroplasty, the following conditions (which tend to impose severe loading on the affected extremity and may tend to adversely affect safety or effectiveness of a total shoulder arthroplasty) should be reduced or eliminated:

  • · Heavy labor.
  • · Active sports participation.
  • · Likelihood of falls.
  • · Alcohol or drug addiction.
  • · Obesity.

The following conditions tend to adversely affect the stability (safety or effectiveness) of the implants:

  • · Marked osteoporosis with poor bone stock and danger of impaired abutment of implants.
  • · Systemic and metabolic disorders leading to progressive deterioration of solid bone. support for the implant (e.g. cortisone therapies, immunosuppressive therapies).
  • · History of general infectious disease (e.g. erysipelas) or local infectious disease.
  • · Severe deformities leading to impaired anchorage or improper positioning of the implant.
  • · Tumors of the supporting bone structure.
  • · Allergic reactions to the implant materials.
  • · Tissue reactions to corrosion or wear products.

Attached is a bibliography of the materials upon which this summary is based.
