Overview

AI-generated summary, 18 Sep 2026

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

The U2 Total Knee System E-XPE Tibial Insert, Cruciate Retaining, is a Class III implantable knee prosthesis designed for total knee arthroplasty. This polyethylene tibial insert is engineered to articulate with femoral components, providing a bearing surface for weight-bearing and load distribution in the knee joint. It is categorized under nomenclature code P090903020202, indicating its role as a tibial insert in knee replacement systems.

This single-use, sterile device is supplied as part of the U2 Total Knee System and is intended for surgical implantation only. The insert is non-reusable and must be handled under aseptic conditions prior to use. It is MRI-unsafe due to its metallic and polymer composition, and storage should follow manufacturer guidelines to maintain sterility.

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

  • What is the U2 Total Knee System E-XPE Tibial Insert specifically designed for in knee replacement surgery?

    The U2 Total Knee System E-XPE Tibial Insert, Cruciate Retaining (#4, 13mm thick), is designed as a polyethylene bearing surface for total knee arthroplasty. It articulates with femoral components to provide a smooth, weight-bearing surface for load distribution in the knee joint, preserving the anterior cruciate ligament (cruciate-retaining design). This insert is part of a Class III implantable knee prosthesis system and is intended exclusively for surgical implantation.

  • Is this tibial insert reusable, and how should it be handled to maintain sterility?

    The U2 Total Knee System E-XPE Tibial Insert is single-use only and must be handled under aseptic conditions before implantation. It is pre-sterilized (as indicated by the sterility field) and comes as part of the U2 Total Knee System. Reuse is contraindicated, and proper storage per manufacturer guidelines is required to preserve sterility.

  • What safety precautions should clinicians take when using this device, particularly regarding imaging?

    This tibial insert is MRI-unsafe due to its metallic and polymer composition. Clinicians should avoid MRI scans for patients with this implant, as the device may pose risks in magnetic fields. Always confirm compatibility with imaging modalities before scheduling scans.

  • How can I verify the regulatory compliance and traceability of this device?

    The U2 Total Knee System E-XPE Tibial Insert holds FDA 510(k) clearance (K082424) and complies with the Medical Devices Directive (MDD). It includes a UDI (Unique Device Identifier) for traceability, with the Basic UDI being `B-04719872151227`. This ensures traceability from manufacturing to implantation, as required by regulatory standards.

  • What sizes or models of this tibial insert are available, and how are they differentiated?

    The U2 Total Knee System E-XPE Tibial Insert is available in specific sizes and thicknesses, with the example model listed as #4, 13mm thick.
