  • What types of patients is the Dorr Hip Prosthesis Acetabular Component designed for?

    The Dorr Hip Prosthesis Acetabular Component is specifically designed for patients requiring total hip arthroplasty due to degenerative joint disease, trauma, or other conditions causing hip dysfunction. It provides a stable metal bearing surface for femoral components and is intended to replace the acetabulum when natural joint function is compromised.

  • Is the Dorr Hip Prosthesis Acetabular Component reusable or single-use?

    The Dorr Hip Prosthesis Acetabular Component is supplied as a reusable surgical implant. It is intended for use in orthopedic operating rooms under sterile conditions, meaning it is sterilized and prepared for repeated surgical use following proper protocols.

  • How is the Dorr Hip Prosthesis Acetabular Component secured in place during surgery?

    The acetabular component is cemented in place using bone cement, which ensures a stable fixation within the patient’s pelvis. This method is standard for metal cemented acetabular cups like this one.

  • What regulatory pathway was followed for the FDA clearance of this device?

    The Dorr Hip Prosthesis Acetabular Component received FDA clearance through a 510(k) submission (K842893) filed in 1984 under the Traditional 510(k) Review pathway. It was determined to be substantially equivalent to a legally marketed predicate device and falls under the Orthopedic advisory committee category, classified as a Class III medical device.
