Here are four things to know.

 

1. The system is designed to improve range of motion and reduce the risk of instability and dislocation after primary or revision hip replacement.

 

2. It is designed for use with Corin’s Optimized Positioning System, a technology intended to help surgeons determine the optimal positioning and orientation of a hip implant based on a dynamic preoperative functional assessment and individual patient analysis.

 

3. The Trinity Dual Mobility System is a modular acetabular system that places two articulating surfaces in the same joint space to provide patients with increased stability, multi-directional movement and a greater range of motion compared to conventional hip replacements.

 

4. The system is manufactured using Corin’s ECIMA polyethylene in order to reduce the risk of in-vivo oxidation. The proprietary design allows for a self-centering of the polyethylene liner during normal gait cycles, reducing load and eliminating the risk of impingement between stem and polyethylene. Surgeons are able to orient the liner and determine the location of the elevated portion of the lip for an increase in jump height and range of motion.
