Altivate Reverse
Reverse Shoulder System
A lateral COR maximizes range of motion while reducing the potential for inferior scapular notching. [1]
An anatomic 135° humeral neck-shaft angle helps reducing the potential for inferior scapular notching. [1]
On both the glenoid and humeral side, expect improved short and long term fixation as a result of stable initial fixation as well as ideal conditions for bony ingrowth. [3]
About
The Altivate® Reverse System combines enhanced fixation technologies and precision instrumentation to achieve an exceptional fit and help restore patient mobility. The AltiVate® Reverse Shoulder builds on the clinical success of DJO®’s RSP™ implant.
The AltiVate Reverse system incorporates an optimized stem design based on anatomic studies with CT scans for determination of shell-to-stem position as well as the ability to best match patient anatomy reverse total shoulder constructs.[2] An anatomic 135° humeral neck-shaft angle has shown through biomechanical testing to help reduce the potential for inferior scapular notching. [1] The system remains based on a lateralised centre of rotation. With a total of seven glenosphere sizes, maximum COR compatibility is achieved by bringing it close to the anatomic COR.
Precision instrumentation caters to differing surgeon preferences and results in a streamlined technique. A metaphyseal-referenced approach dictates stem position based on the fit in the metaphysis while a diaphyseal-referenced approach bases the stem position on the fit in the canal.
AltiVate Reverse features two different shell sizes (Standard Shell and Small Shell) to meet the needs of patients across a wide range of humeral anatomies, while the e+ TM liners are made by highly crosslinked vitamin E polyethylene formulated to maintain strength and reduce wear rates. [2]
