Instrument Kit for use with OsteoSponge SC grafts. The Instrument Kit is used to insert OsteoSponge SC grafts to fill bone defects in the subchondral region of articulating joints. The Instrument Kit is used to establish and maintain a port of entry for arthroscopic instruments or for an open procedure. The kit is also used to insert the OsteoSponge¿ SC graft during surgery.

Reason: Instrument Kits for OsteoSponge SC grafts, OsteoLock Facet Stabilization Dowel, and BacFast HD Facet Dowel have incorrect sterilization parameters in the IFU and on the lid of the kits. Sterilization parameters for the Steam Gravity 121 degree C (250 F) cycle were not validated and the dry time for the Steam Pre-Vacuum 132 degree C (270 F) cycle was omitted.
