ReUnion TSA System
Subject with one or more of the following diagnoses will be treated with the ReUnion TSA System:
|
Device: ReUnion TSA System
The ReUnion TSA System is designed as an anatomical total shoulder or hemi-shoulder endoprosthesis to address advanced arthritic disorders affecting the shoulder joint in subjects having intact or repairable rotator cuff function. The ReUnion TSA System consists of a completely modular shoulder platform including a Humeral Stem, Humeral Head and Glenoid. The intended purposes of the ReUnion TSA System are to achieve pain relief, improvement of range of motion and restoration or improvement of the shoulder function while ensuring long-term replacement of the shoulder joint with sufficient stability of all endoprosthesis components. |
- American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES) Shoulder Score [ Time Frame: 24 months ]The primary endpoint of the clinical investigation is to demonstrate non-inferiority of the device to the selected literature controls, as measured by the ASES Shoulder Score at 24 Months post-operative.
- Safety will be measured by capturing the incidence rate of device-related intra-operative and post-operative adverse events will be measured. [ Time Frame: 10 years ]Secondary outcome measures to assess safety by capturing the incidence rate of device-related intra-operative adverse events.
- Efficacy will be measured by monitoring all implant survivorship in all subjects who have the total or partial prosthesis with full or partial implant survival. [ Time Frame: 10 years ]Secondary outcome measures to assess efficacy by monitoring all implant survivorship in all subjects enrolled who have the ReUnion RFX System.

Ages Eligible for Study: | 18 Years to 99 Years (Adult, Older Adult) |
Sexes Eligible for Study: | All |
Accepts Healthy Volunteers: | No |
Sampling Method: | Probability Sample |
Inclusion Criteria:
- Subject is willing to sign the informed consent.
- Subject is willing and able to comply with postoperative scheduled clinical and radiographic evaluations.
- Subject is male or non-pregnant female and 18 years or older at the time of surgery.
-
Subject has one or more of the following:
- Aseptic necrosis of the humeral head
- Painful, disabling joint disease of the shoulder resulting from degenerative arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis or post-traumatic arthritis
- Failed previous total shoulder replacement, resurfacing or other procedure
Exclusion Criteria:
- Subject has an active or suspected latent infection in or about the shoulder joint.
- Subject has mental or neuromuscular disorder which would create an unacceptable risk of prosthesis instability, prosthesis fixation failure or complications in postoperative care.
- Subject has bone stock compromised by disease, infection or prior implantation which cannot provide adequate support and/or fixation to the prosthesis.
- Subject has anticipated activities which would impose high stresses on the prosthesis and its fixation.
- Subject is obese such that he/she produces a load on the prosthesis which can lead to failure of fixation of the device or to failure of the device itself.
- Subject has absent, irreparable or non-functioning rotator cuff and other essential muscles.
- Subject has concomitant disease(s) which may significantly affect the clinical outcome.
- Subject has traumatic or pathologic fracture of the proximal humerus.
