Company overview

JointMedica develops hip arthroplasty technology from Worcestershire, UK. Its Polymotion Hip Resurfacing System combines a metal femoral cap with a polyethylene bearing and titanium-coated shell, pursuing a bone-conserving alternative to total hip replacement for selected patients.

The U.S. Polymotion program remains investigational. An IDE study and FDA Breakthrough Device designation support clinical development, but do not authorize routine U.S. sales. The company also reports procedures outside the U.S.; those reports do not establish authorization in every market.

President Sharat Kusuma leads a team spanning implant design, manufacturing and commercialization. The current product page identifies Advita Ortho as a distribution partner. Trial execution, longer-term outcomes and market-specific regulatory progress are central to the company’s commercialization story.

Study permission, Breakthrough designation and overseas procedures do not establish U.S. marketing approval. [13][11][8][12][14][1]

No matching FDA recall event was identified in the completed company/applicant, linked-identifier and product-name searches. [5][3]
