TOCA is pleased to announce that Dr David S Bailie M.D. is a principal investigator of an investigational shoulder replacement device.
TOCA is pleased to announce that Dr David S Bailie M.D. is a
principal investigator of an investigational shoulder replacement device. The study is sponsored by Biomet Orthopedics
(Warsaw IN), a major US manufacturer and distributor of orthopedic total joint
implants and sports medicine devices.
The device, which was released in Europe last year, is being
investigated at 12 centers in the US under an FDA-regulated study in order to
compare the investigational device to the standard, currently available shoulder
replacement. The investigational device
is currently not available for use outside of this study. Dr. Bailie has been involved in this project
for several years and has worked with Biomet on the technology, in
collaboration with 3 other surgeons in the US and Canada. He is proud to offer his patients, who are
candidates for shoulder replacement, the opportunity to participate, should
they meet the inclusion criteria set forth by the study protocol. Dr. Bailie is the only surgeon west of
Memphis, TN approved to use this device and participate in this study until the
study is completed. To learn more about
this study and the risks associated therewith, and determine whether you may be
a candidate, please call Dr. Bailie at The Orthopedic Clinic www.SportsMeddoc.com
or by calling 602-277-6211.

TOCA is pleased to announce that David S Bailie MD has been selected as a principal investigator of a new stemless total shoulder replacement device.
TOCA is pleased to announce that David S Bailie MD has
been selected as a principal investigator of a new stemless total shoulder
replacement device. This is a randomized study being conducted at 12 FDA
approved medical facilities in the US. Dr. Bailie is the only orthopedic
surgeon approved to use this device in the western US (west of Memphis, TN).
This FDA approved study is
being sponsored by Biomet Orthopedics ( a worldwide manufacturer/distributor of
Orthopedic devices, www.Biomet.com).
Dr.
Bailie has been selected by the FDA and the Western Institutional Review Board
to participate and enroll qualified patients. The device has already been
released and is currently being used in several European countries and the UK.
Because the device is uniquely different than any current shoulder replacement
on the market, in the US it requires a specifically designed FDA approved
study, to be conducted by select surgeons, prior to general release to the
remainder of the medical community. Until the study is complete (approximately
5-7 years), it will only be available as part of this study. Dr. Bailie is very
excited to have been asked to participate in this "cutting-edge"
research and be able to offer his patients a unique opportunity to participate.
Participating orthopedic surgeons is by invitation only.
