BIRMINGHAM HIP RULER 15 CM
BIRMINGHAM HIP - 90128254
Device Description
A small straight-edged strip intended to be used to measure the length of internal or external anatomy, devices or instruments in a clinical setting. It is marked in units of length (i.e., inches, millimetres and/or centimetres), and may be an independent rigid or bendable strip applied to measured surfaces or a strip incorporated into a form convenient for measuring specific devices (e.g., screws, endodontic files/rasps). It is not an implant sizer/prosthesis trial of a predetermined size, nor is it dedicated to wound measurements. This is a reusable device.

Device Name: Prosthesis, Hip, Semi-Constrained, Metal/Metal, Resurfacing
Device Class: 3
Physical State: The femoral resurfacing component and acetabular components are made of metal. These surfaces rub against each other (the bearing couple) and are made from highly-polished metal. This type of bearing couple is called a metal-on-metal bearing couple.
Definition: Prosthesis, hip, semi-constrained, metal/metal, resurfacing device relieves hip pain and improves hip function by replacing the parts of the hip that have been severely damaged by degenerative joint diseases. This device is indicated for patients with degenerative joint diseases including osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, traumatic arthritis, dysplasia, or avascular necrosis and for patients who, due to their relatively younger age or increased activity level, may not be suitable for traditional total hip replacement due to an increased possibility of requiring future hip joint revision.

Gmp Exempt Flag: Prosthesis, hip, semi-constrained, metal/metal, resurfacing device has two parts: a socket in the shape of a shallow cup (acetabular component), and a cap in the form of a ball head (femoral resurfacing component). The cup replaces the damaged surface of the hip socket (acetabulum). The cap covers or resurfaces the ball-shaped bone at the top of the thigh (femoral head), and the cap has a small stem that is inserted into the top of the thighbone. The cap moves within the cup.
