The BUECHEL-PAPPAS™ (B-P) Fixed Bearing New Jersey (NJ) Total Knee Replacement System is intended for the reconstruction of painful and/or severely disabled knee joints resulting from osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, traumatic arthritis, avascular necrosis, or previously failed prosthesis. Additionally, it is intended for Subjects with severe arthritis (e.g. Posttraumatic, rheumatoid or osteoarthritis.). with sufficient bone stock (i.e. cortical bone present to support the platform of the components) and ligamentous support (i.e. intact medial and lateral collateral ligaments) to allow stable, anatomical positioning of components and supporting tissue structures, who are skellatly mature and have not responded to conservative treatment (i.e. injections, therapy, etc.). Porous components and textured components are intended for cemented use.

Indications for use read by OCR from a scanned FDA 510(k) statement, so letters may be misread. Check the PDF before quoting it.
