Product Overview
THE REMEDY HIP SPACER® is part of the treatment foreseen in a two stage procedure performed in the event of permanent prosthesis infection. The REMEDY® Hip Spacer implant is intended for temporary use only (180 days or less). It allows basic joint mobility and releases antibiotics into the joint area to protect the implant from bacterial colonization. A second surgery will be required at a later date to remove the REMEDY® Hip Spacer and replace it with a permanent hip joint implant.
