Overview

AI-generated summary, 1 Oct 2026

Written by a language model from registry data. Not verified by deviCERTS or the manufacturer. The registry data above is the record.

The Triathlon PKR X3 Tibial Inserts and Mako X3 Uni Onlay Tibial Inserts are orthopedic implants classified as partial knee replacement tibial components. These ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) inserts are designed to replace damaged articular surfaces within the knee joint, restoring function and alignment in partial knee arthroplasty procedures. The Mako X3 Uni Onlay Tibial Inserts are specifically engineered for use with robotic-assisted systems, such as the RIO Robotic Arm Interactive Orthopedic System, to facilitate precise surgical placement. Both insert types are intended for cemented fixation during implantation.

These tibial inserts are supplied as single-use, sterile devices and are intended for use in orthopedic surgical settings. They are available in multiple sizes to accommodate varying patient anatomies and are regulated under FDA 510(k) clearance (K180612) as substantially equivalent to predicate devices. The implants are designed for cemented fixation and are not intended for MRI compatibility. Storage and handling must adhere to sterile medical device protocols to ensure integrity prior to surgical use.

Questions

AI-generated answers, 1 Oct 2026

Written by a language model from registry data. Not verified by deviCERTS or the manufacturer. The registry data above is the record.

  • What are the Triathlon PKR X3 Tibial Inserts and Mako X3 Uni Onlay Tibial Inserts used for?

    These tibial inserts are designed for partial knee replacement procedures, specifically to replace damaged articular surfaces within the knee joint. They restore function and alignment in partial knee arthroplasty by acting as a durable, ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) component. The Mako X3 Uni Onlay Tibial Inserts are engineered for use with robotic-assisted systems like the RIO Robotic Arm Interactive Orthopedic System, ensuring precise surgical placement.

  • How are these tibial inserts supplied and what is their sterility status?

    The Triathlon PKR X3 Tibial Inserts and Mako X3 Uni Onlay Tibial Inserts are supplied as single-use, sterile devices. This ensures they meet strict medical-grade sterility standards before use in orthopedic surgical settings, minimizing infection risks and maintaining integrity for one surgical procedure only.

  • Are these inserts reusable or intended for single-use?

    These tibial inserts are explicitly designed for single-use only. Single-use devices are engineered to maintain sterility and performance for one surgical procedure, reducing the risk of cross-contamination and ensuring consistent quality. Reusing them would compromise sterility and potentially compromise patient safety.

  • What sizes are available for these tibial inserts, and how do they accommodate patient anatomy?

    The Triathlon PKR X3 Tibial Inserts and Mako X3 Uni Onlay Tibial Inserts come in multiple sizes to accommodate varying patient anatomies. The specific sizing ensures a precise fit for each patient’s knee joint, optimizing alignment and function during partial knee arthroplasty. Exact sizing details should be referenced in the product documentation or consulted with a surgical specialist.

  • How should these tibial inserts be stored and handled before surgical use?

    These inserts must be stored and handled according to sterile medical device protocols to preserve their integrity. They should be kept in their original packaging until immediately before use, protected from contamination, moisture, and physical damage. Proper storage ensures sterility and maintains the device’s performance for the intended surgical procedure.
