Intended Use
The GMK Total Knee System is designed for cemented use in total knee arthroplasty, if there is evidence of sufficient sound bone to seat and support the components. This knee replacement system is indicated in the following cases: · Severely painful and/or disabled joint as a result of arthritis, traumatic arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis or polyarthritis. · Avascular necrosis of femoral condyle. · Post traumatic loss of joint configuration. · Primary implantation failure. Tibial wedges cemented are to be attached to the tibial baseplate with both the fixing cylinders and bone cement. The screwed tibial augments are for screwed fixation to the tibial baseplate. In case a semi-constrained liner is used, an extension stem must be implanted both on the tibial and on the femoral components. In case a GMK Revision tibial tray is used, an extension stem must be implanted.
Device Story
GMK Total Knee System is a line extension of orthopedic implants for total knee arthroplasty; components include femoral implants (STD and PS versions) in various sizes. Device is intended for cemented fixation; requires sufficient sound bone for seating. System includes optional tibial wedges and screwed tibial augments; specific configurations (semi-constrained liners or revision trays) mandate use of extension stems. Implants are used by orthopedic surgeons in clinical/OR settings to restore joint function and alleviate pain in patients with degenerative or traumatic joint disease. Output is a reconstructed knee joint; clinical decision-making relies on surgeon assessment of bone quality and joint stability. Benefits include pain relief and restoration of joint configuration.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Performance evaluated via risk analysis and design verification protocols comparing mechanical strength, range of motion, constraint, and wear characteristics against worst-case predicate devices.
Technological Characteristics
Materials: Co-Cr-Mo (ISO 5832-4). Design: Cemented patellofemorotibial polymer/metal/polymer semi-constrained prosthesis. Components include femoral implants, tibial wedges, and screwed tibial augments. Connectivity: N/A (mechanical implant). Sterilization: Not specified.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients with severely painful/disabled joints due to arthritis (osteo, traumatic, rheumatoid, polyarthritis), avascular necrosis of femoral condyle, post-traumatic joint loss, or primary implantation failure requiring total knee arthroplasty with sufficient bone stock for component support.
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).

### Comparison to Predicate Devices
The indications for use, design features and materials of the GMK Extension are substantially equivalent to those of the predicate devices. The substantial equivalence of the GMK Extension implants is supported by the performance testing, materials information, and data analysis provided within this Premarket Notification.
### Performance Testing
The modification to the device system to include the addition of the GMK Extension was evaluated by risk analysis to identify any new risks associated with the change. Based on the risk analysis, design verification was conducted to written protocols with predefined acceptance criteria. The protocols and pre-defined acceptance criteria were based on the standards, FDA quidance, and comparison to the predicate device svstem. The GMK Extension was compared to the worst case predicate device in terms of mechanical strength, range of motion, constraints to prevent risk of dislocation, and
{6}------------------------------------------------
contact pressures/wear and it was determined that the GMK Extension is not worst case.
## Conclusion:
Based on the above information, the GMK Extension can be considered as substantially equivalent to its predicate devices.
