Risks and Uncertainties [Abstract]  
Concentration Risk Disclosure RISK AND UNCERTAINTIESIn China the government launched a national program for volume-based procurement of high value medical consumables to reduce healthcare costs. The government will award a contract to the lowest bidders who are able to satisfy the quality and quantity requirements. The successful bidders will be guaranteed a sales volume for certain periods, while losing a volume-based procurement tender process will result in a loss of market share. This process may also enable manufacturers to lower their distribution and commercial costs. The implementation of the tender process may negatively impact our existing commercial operations of joint replacement, spine and trauma products in China. Currently the government is collecting data related to these products. We are responding to the request for information and are closely monitoring this process for any indicators of potential impairment of goodwill or intangible assets related to our business in China. Our business in China represented approximately 2% of our revenues for the year ended December 31, 2020.
