Product Compatibility

Smith+Nephew has developed a compatibility matrix of product families across our Total Hip Arthroplasty (THA) portfolio. In order to establish compatibility, benchtop (in vitro) testing and other evaluations have been completed to assure our global customers that approved product combinations can be used together.
