FDA approves Zimmer PSI Shoulder System
Zimmer has received 510(k) clearance from the FDA to market the Zimmer Patient Specific Instruments (PSI) Shoulder system to complement its Trabecular Metal Reverse Shoulder system for reverse shoulder arthroplasty (RSA) procedures. It is designed to complement Zimmer's Trabecular Metal Reverse base plate implant system.
The PSI Shoulder utilizes 3D visualization software to allow a surgeon to create a customized surgical plan for each patient, and then provides patient-specific surgical instrument guides to facilitate placement of the implant corresponding to the personalized surgical plan.
