Surface Technology

Zimmer Biomet received FDA 510(k) clearance for its Persona Revision Knee System.

The patient-specific revision knee replacement system features:

  • Trabecular Metal Technology, the only tantalum-based porous material on the market
  • Vivacit-E Highly Crosslinked Polyethylene, a bearing surface designed with actively stabilized vitamin E to prevent oxidation and maintain strength and wear resistance

According to Todd Davis, Zimmer Biomet's vice president and general manager of the global knee business, the clearance, "gives [Zimmer Biomet] the ability to provide surgeons with a full service portfolio for the continuum of knee arthroplasty care, from diagnostic tools, cement spacer technologies to re-implantation solutions."
