Intended Use

The Neo CR Knee System components are indicated for use in skeletally mature individuals, with severe knee pain and disability, with an intact posterior cruciate ligament, undergoing surgery for total knee replacement due to: - Osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, post-traumatic arthritis, moderate deformities and femoral condyle osteonecrosis. - Failed osteotomies, failed partial knee replacement, or failed total knee replacement whose age, weight and activity level are compatible with an adequate long-term result. - Post-traumatic loss of joint configuration, particularly when there is patellofemoral erosion, dysfunction or prior patellectomy. - Moderate valgus, varus, or flexion deformities. NEO CR Knee System components are indicated for use only with cement and are single use devices.

Device Story

Total knee replacement system comprising femoral components, tibial trays, patellar components, and surgical instrumentation. Designed for high-flexion (up to 150 degrees) in patients with intact posterior cruciate ligament. Used by orthopedic surgeons in clinical/OR settings. Components implanted via cement fixation to replace damaged joint surfaces; restores joint configuration and function; alleviates pain and disability. Bench testing confirms mechanical integrity under physiological conditions.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Evaluations included tibial tray fatigue strength, insert locking mechanism strength, femorotibial range of motion, femorotibial/patellofemoral range of constraint, and contact area/stress analysis.

Technological Characteristics

Components manufactured from metals and UHMWPE compliant with implantable materials standards. Semi-constrained cemented prosthesis. Design features support high-flexion (150 degrees).

Indications for Use

Indicated for skeletally mature patients with severe knee pain/disability and intact posterior cruciate ligament requiring total knee replacement due to osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, post-traumatic arthritis, moderate deformities, femoral condyle osteonecrosis, failed prior knee surgeries, or post-traumatic joint loss. For use only with cement; single use.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

A knee joint patellofemorotibial polymer/metal/polymer semi-constrained cemented 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 includes prostheses that have a femoral component made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum, and a tibial component or components and a retropatellar resurfacing component made of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene. This generic type of device is limited to those prostheses intended for use with bone cement (§ 888.3027).

April 17, 2012 Date Summary Prepared:

#### Device Description:

The NEO CR Knee System includes components designed for total knee replacement. The system includes femoral components, tibial trays, patellar components and surgical instrumentation.

The Neo CR Knee System femoral component, when used with the Neo CR articular surfaces, is designed to achieve flexion at high angles and provide a clinical ROM up to 150 degrees.

#### Intended Use

The Neo CR Knee System components are indicated for use in skeletally mature individuals, with severe knee pain and disability, with an intact posterior cruciate ligament, undergoing surgery for total knee replacement due to:

- Osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, post-traumatic arthritis, moderate . deformities and femoral condyle osteonecrosis.
- Failed osteotomies, failed partial knee replacement, or failed total knee . replacement whose age, weight and activity level are compatible with an adequate long-term result.
- Post-traumatic loss of joint configuration, particularly when there is . patellofemoral erosion, dysfunction or prior patellectomy.
- Moderate valgus, varus, or flexion deformities. .

NEO CR Knee System components are indicated for use only with cement and are single use devices.

### NEO CR Knee System 510(k) Summary

#### Predicate Devices:

The NEO CR Knee System is similar to several predicates including the following.

| Trade/Proprietary Name | Manufacturer | 510(K) # | Clearance<br>Date |
|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|--------------|----------|-------------------|
| NexGen Complete Knee Solution<br>Cruciate Retaining (CR)-Flex Femoral<br>Components | Zimmer | K023211 | 10/17/2002 |
| Gender Solutions Natural-Knee Flex<br>System | Zimmer | K073286 | 03/07/2008 |
| Triathlon Cruciate Retaining (Cr) Total<br>Knee System | Stryker | K040267 | 5/5/2004 |

#### Technological Characteristics:

The metals and standard UHMWPE material from which the components are manufactured are the same materials used in the predicate knee systems and comply with applicable implantable materials standards. A comparison of design features of the NEO CR Knee System to the predicate knee systems and performance testing confirm that the NEO CR Knee System is capable of withstanding the anticipated physiological conditions associated with the indications for use and is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.

#### Performance Testing:

The NEO Knee System has been evaluated for tibial tray fatigue strength, insert locking mechanism strength, femorotibial range of motion, femorotibial range of constraint, patellofemoral range of constraint, femorotibial contact areas/contact stress, and patellofemoral contact area and contact stress.

#### Substantial Equivalence Information:

The NEO CR Knee System is similar to legally marketed devices listed previously in that they share similar indications for use and incorporate similar technological characteristics. All evaluations determined that the NEO CR Knee System is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.
