ADM Mobile Bearing Acetabular System with X3 Advanced Bearing Technology Designed to Reduce Complications Associated with Total Hip Arthroplasty
While total hip replacement is one of the most successful surgical procedures performed today, dislocation remains one of the top reported complications(1). To address dislocation, conventional designs focus on the use of metal-on-metal large head technologies which based on recent studies suggest added risk due to metal ion release(2). Combining an evolution in design with the only anatomic dual mobility acetabular system and its patented X3 Advanced Bearing Technology(3), Stryker Orthopaedics Mobile Bearing Hip addresses dislocation without the risk of metal ion release.
"By developing an implant that addresses adverse outcomes associated with hip replacement surgery, we are not only helping surgeons to treat their patients more successfully, but we are also striving to reduce global healthcare costs by minimizing surgical complications," said Bill Huffnagle, Vice President and General Manager of Hip Reconstruction at Stryker Orthopaedics.
This Mobile Bearing Hip system is made possible due to Stryker Orthopaedics' patented X3 Advanced...
