Total Replacement with the CONSERVE® Total BFH™ Hip Implant
|

CONSERVE® Total X-ray
|
This third offering within LIFETIME SOLUTIONS™ is the first true,
primary hip replacement implanted in the patient's body.
Most traditional total hip implants are made of plastic-on-metal components.
However, with the improved wear characteristics of metal-on-metal bearings, the
CONSERVE® Total BFH™ hip is expected to last much longer.
CONSERVE® Total Design
The CONSERVE® Total Hip utilizes the same BFH™ Technology as the CONSERVE®
PLUS implant. Thus, the same benefits of large diameter metal-on-metal bearings
are maintained. The result of this increased femoral head diameter is an
anatomically-sized femoral head with a significantly larger dislocation
"jump distance."
With BFH™ Technology, dislocation "jump distance" reaches 24mm, as
compared to 16mm for more traditional femoral head sizes. This simply means that
the BFH™ implant must travel a greater distance to dislocate - a distance that
is so much greater than the jump distance of traditional hip replacement
implants, that the chance of dislocation is greatly reduced.4
