Range of Motion
Improving Range of Motion & Minimizing Dislocation: Through Innovative Design.
Dislocation continues to be one of the most common factors leading to early failure of THA, with reported occurrence ranging from 1% to 10% for primary replacement and 10% to 20% for revision surgery.27-30 The most common factors for increased dislocation include surgical approach, orientation of the acetabular component, inadequate joint tension and prosthetic design. In an effort to address the issue of dislocation, Wright has designed an innovative total hip implant to restore anatomic joint tension and reduce the potential for impingement by allowing for optimal range of motion.
- The PERFECTA® Slim Neck design coupled with a 12/14 taper reduces the opportunity for implant impingement, resulting in maximum range of motion and reducing the risk potential of dislocation.
- A highly polished neck region minimizes potential for debris generation.
- Standard and increased offsets allow for optimal joint tension, further reducing the opportunity for dislocation.
With the innovative neck design of the PERFECTA® Stem and low profile design of the LINEAGE® Acetabular System, overall range of motion is improved by up to 10° as compared to other traditional designs.
The PERFECTA® Slim Neck was designed with the patient in mind. These updated implants are less technically demanding and provide surgeons with increased flexibility and maximal range of motion.
The PERFECTA® Slim Neck design in conjunction with the LINEAGE® Acetabular Cup System reduces the chance of impingement and subsequent dislocation. Wright Medical Technology - Improving Range of Motion through innovative design.
