The ShapeMatch Cutting Guides are intended to be used as patient-specific surgical instrumentation to assist in the positioning of total knee arthroplasty components intraoperatively and in guiding the marking of bone before cutting provided that anatomic landmarks necessary for alignment and positioning of the implant are identifiable on patient imaging scans.
The ShapeMatch Cutting Guides are intended for use with the CR, PS and CS components of the Triathlon® Knee System. The indications for use of the Triathlon Knee System when used with the ShapeMatch Cutting Guides are:
General Total Knee Arthroplasty (TKR) Indications:
* Painful, disabling joint disease of the knee resulting from: degenerative arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis or post-traumatic arthritis.
* Post-traumatic loss of knee joint configuration and function,
* Moderate varus, valgus, or flexion deformity in which the ligamentous structures can be returned to adequate function and stability.
* Failed reconstruction procedures which did not involve the implantation of hardware on the condylar surfaces
Additional Indications for Posterior Stabilized (PS):
* Ligamentous instability requiring implant bearing surface geometries with increased constraint.
* Absent or non-functioning posterior cruciate ligament.
* Severe anteroposterior instability of the knee joint.
The ShapeMatch Cutting Guides are intended for single use only.
Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
