K103598 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the PROPHECY PRE-OPERATIVE NAVIGATION ALIGNMENT GUIDES. Classified as Prosthesis, Knee, Patello/femorotibial, Semi-constrained, Uncemented, Porous, Coated, Polymer/metal/polymer (product code MBH), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Wrightmedicaltechnologyinc (Arlington, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on October 17, 2011 after a review of 313 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.

This device falls under the Orthopedic FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 888.3565 - the FDA orthopedic device regulatory framework. The Traditional 510(k) pathway establishes clearance through substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device, without requiring clinical trial data.

Device pattern: Standard predicate-based submission. Elevated predicate reliance profile. This clearance follows a standard predicate-based equivalence path within the Orthopedic review framework, consistent with the majority of Class II 510(k) submissions.
