Equinoxe System

Product catalog summary
Overview: The Equinoxe Shoulder System by Exactech is a versatile platform designed to address various surgical challenges in shoulder arthroplasty. It allows for conversion between primary, fracture, and reverse shoulder procedures without removing the stem, offering intra-operative flexibility and standardization.
Reverse Shoulder: The Equinoxe Reverse minimizes scapular notching and enhances glenoid fixation. It features a lateralized humerus design to better tension muscles and prevent humeral liner impingement. The glenoid baseplate offers strong initial fixation with a press-fit bone cage and allows for angular variability in screw placement. The system is revision-friendly, with six screw holes for optimal fixation.
Platform Fracture Stem: This component addresses complex fractures with options for hemi or reverse shoulder arthroplasty. It includes a patented anterior-lateral fin for anatomical reconstruction and a standardized suture technique to minimize micromotion.
Fx Plate: The Equinoxe Fx Plate is designed for anatomic fracture reconstruction, offering multiple configurations for proximal humerus fractures. It features a contoured design for suture placement and void filler deployment, with modular blades and locking screws for support.
Primary Shoulder: The system allows for anatomical replication by adjusting four parameters in situ. The patented replicator plate provides adjustability for version and neck angle, while augmented glenoid options offer bone-preserving solutions.
Resurfacing Humeral Head: This component offers modularity and anatomic sizing, facilitating implantation through a cuff-preserving approach. It aids in restoring the patient's unique anatomy with low-profile instrumentation.
Conclusion: The Equinoxe Shoulder System provides comprehensive solutions for shoulder arthroplasty, emphasizing flexibility, anatomical accuracy, and ease of revision. It is supported by extensive research and clinical studies.

PLATFORM SHOULDER SYSTEM Assemble what the situation requires. Platform Shoulder System No matter what challenges a surgeon may face, the Equinoxe® Shoulder System offers true reversatility. This platform shoulder system enables surgeons to convert from either a primary or fracture stem to a reverse shoulder without stem removal. Additionally, the use of the same humeral instrumentation and humeral preparation for various indications standardizes the procedure and empowers the surgeon to intra-operatively decide 'primary vs. reverse' or 'hemi vs. reverse.' Be prepared to handle all of these challenges seamlessly—experience...

Reverse Shoulder 7x Reduction in Scapular Notching. ...and no sacrifice of glenoid fixation or stability2 The Equinoxe Reverse is designed to minimize scapular notching and enhance glenoid fixation. Its components build off the Equinoxe primary and fracture humeral stems, which provides intra-operative flexibility and enables surgeons to convert a well-fixed stem to a reverse without stem removal. The system offers a wide range of glenoid solutions, designed for challenging bony defects. Minimize Scapular Notching The Equinoxe Reverse lateralizes the humerus, which better tensions the muscles14...

Either track. Same platform. Platform Fracture Stem The Equinoxe Platform Fracture Stem empowers surgeons to address complex fractures intra-operatively with a hemi or reverse shoulder arthroplasty. The stem reconstructs the patient’s anatomy with a patented anterior-lateral fin and asymmetric tuberosity beds that act as a scaffold to accurately position the greater and lesser tuberosity. Standardized Reproducible Suture Technique The Equinoxe suture technique is designed to establish tuberosity fixation and minimize micromotion. The points of contact for the sutures are polished and have rounded...

Strong support where you need it. Fx Plate The Equinoxe Fx Plate is redefining anatomic fracture reconstruction. The locking plate provides multiple configurations of blades and screws to address a myriad of classifications of proximal humerus fractures. The contoured design allows suture placement and void filler deployment after the plate is secured. Anatomic. Redefined. The contoured plate is asymmetric to align with the bicipital groove and greater tuberosity, and tapered distally to respect the deltoid insertion. The suture holes are anatomically oriented, allowing surgeons to pass the suture...
