DePuy Synthes has announced FDA 510(k) clearance for the Inhance shoulder system for use in reverse total shoulder arthroplasty procedures, according to a press release.

The Inhance system, which previously received FDA 510(k) clearance for use in anatomic shoulder arthroplasty procedures, is designed for use in hospitals, outpatient settings and ASCs. The system allows surgeons the intraoperative flexibility to change their approach based on humeral bone quality, glenoid bone loss or rotator cuff deficiency, according to the release.
