The OPTETRAK® Total Knee Systems are indicated for use in skeletally mature

individuals undergoing primary surgery for total knee replacement due to osteoarthritis,

osteonecrosis, rheumatoid arthritis and/or post-traumatic degenerative problems. They are

also indicated for revision of failed previous reconstructions where sufficient bone stock

and soft tissue integrity are present.

The OPTETRAK® Total Knee Systems are contraindicated in patients with active

infection, patients without sufficient bone stock to allow appropriate insertion and

fixation of the prosthesis, patients without sufficient soft tissue integrity to provide

adequate stability, and in patients with either mental or neuromuscular disorders that do

not allow control of the knee joint, and in patients whose weight, age, or activity level

might cause extreme loads and early failure of the system.

OPTETRAK® HI-FLEx Tibial Inserts must be used with Optetrak® Hi-FLEX Femoral

Components.

CA UTION: In the USA, for cemented use only.

Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
