Catalyst OrthoScience announced FDA 510(k) clearance for and first surgeries with the Catalyst Fracture Shoulder System, a reverse arthroplasty system to treat proximal humeral fractures.
Key elements of the Catalyst Fracture System for reverse shoulder replacement include:
- Tuberosity-specific fossa designed to maximize tuberosity contact and healing to a porous surface.
- Patented tuberosity retention rails designed to further restrict tuberosity motion post-operatively.
- Uncemented, secure press-fit diaphyseal fixation and strong rotational stability, with cemented options as well.
- Compatibility with glenospheres and baseplates in standard, augmented, and lateralized configurations to suit nearly every type of glenoid anatomy.
Catalyst will complete a limited user release to gather further data on the system’s performance ahead of a broader commercial release in 2025.
“With the addition of the Catalyst Fracture System, we now have a comprehensive portfolio that allows surgeons to help a broader range of patients,” said Carl O’Connell, CEO of Catalyst. “This product is key to our strategy and builds our leadership in the orthopedics market.”
