K150372 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the VERASENSE Knee System. Classified as Intraoperative Orthopedic Joint Assessment Aid (product code ONN), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Orthosensor, Inc. (Dania Beach, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on April 15, 2016 after a review of 427 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.

This device falls under the Orthopedic FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 882.4560 - 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: High-complexity regulatory submission. Elevated predicate reliance profile. The extended review timeline suggests the FDA required additional documentation before confirming substantial equivalence - a pattern common in complex or first-of-kind Orthopedic submissions.
