Stryker Releases New
Rejuvenate Modular Primary Hip System!
The Rejuvenate Femoral Platform is a modular hip system of femoral bodies and necks that provide surgeons with the options for personalizing the implant to each patient’s anatomy. The Rejuvenate femoral stem represents the latest evolution in the OmniFit and Secur-Fit product lines, which has had a successful published clinical history for over 15 years. 1
Rejuvenate is designed with the potential to provide:
Enhanced Stability 2
The Rejuvenate System offers the surgeon the opportunity to independently manage stem size, leg length, version and offset. The surgeon may utilize these options to recreate the patient’s anatomy, restore biomechanics and consequently minimize risk of dislocation. 2,3
Proven Modularity 4
The modular junction construct is designed to maintain strength and durability. The Rejuvenate System combines the material characteristics of TMZF ( Ti-12Mo-6Zr-2Fe) and Cobalt Chrome (CoCr) for the stem and neck implants respectively. Laboratory testing demonstrates the compatibility of these materials without concern for fretting and corrosion. 4
Intraoperative Flexibility
The easy-to-use instrument design helps improve workflow due to the modular instrumentation and multiplicity of instrument usage. The instruments are also designed with enhanced ergonomics and integrated with navigation.
