Reverse shoulder prosthesis head

A reverse shoulder prosthesis head is a key component designed for use in shoulder arthroplasty procedures, specifically in reverse shoulder replacements. It serves as the glenosphere, articulating with the reverse shoulder cup to restore mobility and stability in patients with severe shoulder arthritis, rotator cuff tears, or fractures where traditional implants are unsuitable.

These devices are typically sterile, single-use implants regulated as surgical implants under medical device classifications. They are supplied as part of a full reverse shoulder system, often requiring surgical expertise for proper placement and alignment. Classification and supply details may vary by jurisdiction, but they are generally intended for use in orthopedic surgery settings.
