Intended Use
The Scorpio® Total Knee System components are for use in total knee arthroplasty to relieve pain and restore knee function for indications such as: painful, disabling joint disease of the knee resulting from degenerative arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis or post-traumatic arthritis; post-traumatic loss of knee joint configuration and function; moderate varus, valgus or flexion deformity in which the ligamentous structures can be returned to adequate function and stability; revision of previous unsuccessful knee replacement or other procedure. Additional indications for the posterior stabilized components include: ligamentous instability requiring implant bearing surface geometries with increased constraint; absent or non-functioning posterior cruciate ligament. These products are intended to achieve fixation with and without the use of bone cement
Device Story
Scorpio® Total Knee System consists of femoral, tibial, and patellar components designed for total knee arthroplasty. Device replaces articulating surfaces of distal femur, proximal tibia, and patella to relieve pain and restore motion. Used in clinical settings by orthopedic surgeons. Implantation performed with or without bone cement. System provides mechanical stability and restores joint function for patients with degenerative bone disease or trauma. Benefits include pain relief and improved mobility.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Testing included porous coating characterization, baseplate fatigue testing, contact area/stress analyses, range of motion/constraint testing, locking mechanism testing, and UHMWPE material property evaluation in accordance with FDA Class II Special Controls Guidance.
Technological Characteristics
Metal/polymer, porous-coated, uncemented prosthesis. Components include femoral, tibial, and patellar implants. Materials include UHMWPE. Testing performed per Class II Special Controls Guidance for Knee Joint Patellofemorotibial and Femorotibial Metal/Polymer Porous-Coated Uncemented Prostheses.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients requiring total knee arthroplasty due to degenerative, rheumatoid, or post-traumatic arthritis; post-traumatic loss of joint function; or moderate varus, valgus, or flexion deformity with stable ligaments. Also indicated for revision of failed knee replacements. Posterior stabilized components indicated for ligamentous instability or absent/non-functioning posterior cruciate ligament. Single use only.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A knee joint patellofemorotibial metal/polymer porous-coated uncemented prosthesis is a device intended to be implanted to replace a knee joint. The device limits translation and rotation in one or more planes via the geometry of its articulating surfaces. It has no linkage across-the-joint. This generic type of device is designed to achieve biological fixation to bone without the use of bone cement. This identification includes fixed-bearing knee prostheses where the ultra high molecular weight polyethylene tibial bearing is rigidly secured to the metal tibial base plate.
Special Controls
*Classification.* Class II (special controls). The special control is FDA's guidance: “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Knee Joint Patellofemorotibial and Femorotibial Metal/Polymer Porous-Coated Uncemented Prostheses; Guidance for Industry and FDA.” See § 888.1 for the availability of this guidance.
