Recall Details
- Company:
- Zimmer, Inc.
- Reason for Recall:
- Zimmer Biomet is conducting a voluntary medical device recall related to the NexGen Stemmed Option Tibial Components due to the clinically and statistically significant higher overall revision rates when these tibial components are used with either the Legacy Posterior Stabilized (LPS) Flex or LPS Flex Gender Solutions Femoral (GSF) components as compared to other total knee arthroplasties in the United Kingdom National Joint Registry (UK NJR). Removing the NexGen Stemmed Option Tibial Component f rom inventory will prevent its future implantation with either the LPS Flex or LPS Flex GSF femoral components and mitigate the increased revision risk with these two specific combinations of tibial and femoral component.
- Classification:
- Class I - Dangerous
Dangerous or defective products that predictably could cause serious health problems or death.
- Status:
- ongoing
