Unicompartmental knee implants are indicated for restoring either compartment of a knee that has been affected by the following: 1. Noninflammatory degenerative joint disease including osteoarthritis, traumatic arthritis, or avascular necrosis; 2. Correction of functional deformity; 3. Revision procedures where other treatments or devices have failed: and 4. Treatment of fractures that are unmanageable using other techniques. Unicompartmental knee implants are single use only and are intended for implantation only with bone cement. HA coated unicompartmental knee implants are available outside the US for use without bone cement. Smith & Nephew, Inc. Journey II BCS Knee components are indicated for use only with cement and are single use devices. The Journey II Total Knee system components are indicated for use only with cement and are single use devices. The Smith & Nephew Patello-Femoral Implants are intended for implantation with bone cement. The Legion Hinge Knee System is for Cemented Use Only. The LEGION Knee System - Finned Tibial Wedges are for single use only and are intended for implantation with bone cement. The devices are indicated for cemented use only. The Engage™ Partial Knee System is intended for medial unicompartmental knee arthroplasty to treat one or more of the following conditions: Moderately disabling joint disease of the knee resulting from painful osteo- or post traumatic arthritis. Revision of previous unsuccessful surgical procedures, including prior unicompartmental knee arthroplasty. As an alternative to tibial osteotomy in patients with Unicompartmental osteoarthritis. The femoral component and tibial tray are intented fixation. The porous surfaces of both the femoral and tibial tray components provide biological fixation when used in a cementless application. When the tibial tray is implanted without the use of bone cement, the tibial anchor should be used. When the tibial tray is implanted with bone cement, the tibial anchor should not be used. The Porous Patella and the Porous Tibia Baseplate are indicated for use with or without bone cement, and are single use devices.
Device Story
Smith & Nephew knee systems (total, unicompartmental, patello-femoral, hinge) are orthopedic implants used in primary and revision knee arthroplasty. These devices replace damaged joint surfaces to restore function and reduce pain. Implants are surgically placed by orthopedic surgeons in hospital or surgical center settings. This submission updates labeling to include Magnetic Resonance (MR) safety information. No changes were made to device design, materials, manufacturing, or sterilization. The update ensures clinicians have appropriate MR safety parameters for patients with these implants. Benefits include continued clinical utility of existing knee systems with clarified MR compatibility, facilitating safe diagnostic imaging for patients.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data provided. Substantial equivalence is supported by bench testing for MR safety, including magnetically induced displacement force (ASTM F2052), torque (ASTM F2213), RF-induced heating (ASTM F2182-19e2, IEC 60601-2-33, ISO/TS 10974:2018E), and MR image artifact (ASTM F2119).
Technological Characteristics
Orthopedic knee implants (total, unicompartmental, hinge, patello-femoral). Materials and design are identical to previously cleared predicates. MR safety testing conducted per ASTM F2052, ASTM F2213, ASTM F2182-19e2, and ASTM F2119. Sterilization and manufacturing processes remain unchanged.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients with rheumatoid arthritis, post-traumatic arthritis, osteoarthritis, degenerative arthritis, failed osteotomies, failed unicompartmental or total knee replacement, functional deformity, or fractures unmanageable by other techniques. Specific systems indicated for primary/revision surgery where cruciate/collateral ligaments are incompetent or absent. Patello-femoral system indicated for degenerative arthritis in distal femur/patella, patellar dislocation/fracture, or failed previous surgery.
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).

A recent study published in the journal Science has revealed a surprising connection between the consumption of dark chocolate and improved cognitive function. Researchers found that participants who consumed a small amount of dark chocolate daily for three months experienced significant improvements in memory, attention span, and overall cognitive performance, suggesting that the flavanols present in dark chocolate may have neuroprotective effects.

# Device Description:
The purpose of this Traditional 510(k) is to add MR safety information to the labeling (instructions for use, product labeling and patient implant card) of the subject Smith & Nephew Knee Systems. The technological characteristics, function of the devices, packaging and sterilization remain unchanged. As these products have been in distribution for several years, some parts have undergone changes in the technological characteristics that were assessed in compliance with the FDA's guidanceon "Deciding When to Submit a 510(k) for a Change to an Existing Device" or the FDA predecessor guidance on how to review changes to an existing device. These are not cumulative changes for all Smith & Nephew Knee Systems, but are rather specific changes that only affect certain parts. In the context of this submission, no modifications have been made to the device design, materials, sterilization, or the manufacturing process of the previously cleared devices due to the addition of MR Labeling for this 510(k).

# Performance Data
Below listed Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) compatibility testing was conducted asper the FDA's guidance and the standards listed below .
- 1. Magnetically induced displacement force (ASTM F2052)
- 2. Magnetically induced torque (ASTM F2213)
- 3. Radiofrequency (RF) induced heating (ASTM F2182-19e2, IEC 60601-2-33, ISO/TS 10974:2018E)
- 4. MR image artifact (ASTM F2119)
MR Safety testing/ assessments support the appropriate MR parameters and symbols found in the subject device labeling.
As these products have been in distribution for several years, bacterial endotoxin testing was completed in previous submissions. The addition of the MR safety information to thelabeling does not affect the pyrogenicity, therefore, the subject Smith & Knee Systems are still expected to met the acceptable endotoxin limits as stated in the FDA Guidance, "Submission and Review of Sterility Information in Premarket Notification (510(k)) Submissions for Devices Labeled as Sterile," "Pyrogen and Endotoxins Testing: Questions and Answers," and ANSI/AAMI ST72.

# Conclusion
In summary, the only differences between the subject devices, including substantially equivalent letter to file catalog items and the commercially available predicate devices were supporting MR safety testing/assessment and the addition of MR safety information to the labeling. These differences are not critical to the intended therapeutic, diagnostic, prosthetic, or surgical use of the subject devices. The subject Smith & Nephew Knee Systems are identical in function, design features, materials, sterilization, manufacturing methods and operational principles to what was previously 510(k) cleared and do not affect the safety and effectiveness of the subject devices when used as labeled. Due to the supporting documentation within this filing, it is conducted that the subject device(s) are substantially equivalent to the predicate device(s).
