Device Name: Shoulder Prosthesis, Reverse Configuration

Device Class: 2

Physical State: Typically includes humeral stem, humeral socket, humeral cup, glenosphere, and glenoid baseplate with fixation screws. The humeral stem and humeral socket may be one single piece or two separate pieces locked together. The humeral cup is snap fit into the humeral socket. The humeral cup is made from UHMWPE and articulates with the glenosphere made of CoCrMo alloy, Titanium alloy, or stainless steel. The glenosphere locks to glenoid baseplate which is fixed to the glenoid bone by 2-6 screws. The glenoid baseplate has HA coating, metallic coating or no coating and may feature a central peg, central screw, central cage, or keel.

Definition: Intended to be used to relieve pain and to replace the glenoid and humeral side of the shoulder joint in order to restore mobility in a grossly rotator cuff deficient joint with severe arthropathy or a previous joint replacement with a grossly rotator cuff deficient joint.
