The implants are single use only and are designed to be used in combination with existing Genesis Unicondylar baseplates that are intended for implantation with bone cement. ## Device Story Genesis Unicondylar UHMWPe Articular Inserts are orthopedic implants designed to replace either the medial or lateral tibial compartment of the knee. Used in conjunction with existing Genesis Unicondylar baseplates, these inserts are secured using bone cement. The device is intended for surgical implantation by a physician to restore knee function in patients suffering from degenerative joint disease, deformity, or fractures. By providing a new articular surface, the device aims to alleviate pain and restore joint mobility. The inserts are single-use components. ## Clinical Evidence No clinical data provided; bench testing only. ## Technological Characteristics UHMWPe (Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene) articular inserts. Designed for use with existing Genesis Unicondylar baseplates. Non-constrained, cemented knee prosthesis. Mechanical device; no software or energy source. ## Regulatory Identification A knee joint femorotibial metal/polymer non-constrained cemented prosthesis is a device intended to be implanted to replace part of a knee joint. The device limits minimally (less than normal anatomic constraints) translation in one or more planes. It has no linkage across-the-joint. This generic type of device includes prostheses that have a femoral condylar resurfacing component or components made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum, and a tibial component or components made of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene and are intended for use with bone cement (§ 888.3027). ## Predicate Devices - Smith & Nephew Genesis Unicompartmental Articular Knee Inserts ([K912735](/device/K912735.md)) - Smith & Nephew Journey Unicondylar Articular Knee Inserts ([K061011](/device/K061011.md)) ## Submission Summary (Full Text) > This content was OCRed from public FDA records by [Innolitics](https://innolitics.com).
