Questions

AI-generated answers, 18 Sep 2026

Written by a language model from registry data. Not verified by deviCERTS or the manufacturer. The registry data above is the record.

  • What types of hip replacement surgeries are these components intended for use in?

    These components are designed specifically for total hip arthroplasty, where the alumina head articulates with compatible polyethylene acetabular cup liners to create a durable bearing surface. They are part of a matched set for surgical use in orthopedic hip replacement procedures, pairing with Trident polyethylene inserts that fit within an acetabular shell.

  • Are these components single-use or reusable, and what about sterility?

    The provided data does not specify whether these components are single-use or reusable, nor does it mention sterility requirements. Clinicians should follow the manufacturer’s instructions for use (IFU) or facility protocols to determine proper handling and reprocessing if applicable.

  • How are the alumina head and Trident polyethylene inserts paired, and do they come in multiple sizes?

    The alumina head is supplied as a matched set with Trident polyethylene inserts, meaning each head is designed to pair with a specific acetabular cup system. Sizes and configurations are determined by the matching acetabular shell, so compatibility depends on the surgical plan and the cup system being used.

  • What regulatory pathways have these components gone through, and how does that affect their use?

    These components received FDA 510(k) clearance (K991952) under the Orthopedic advisory committee and are also compliant with MDR requirements. The clearance indicates they are considered substantially equivalent to a predicate device, but clinicians should confirm the latest regulatory status and follow the manufacturer’s guidelines for proper use.
