(b)(4).This follow-up report is being submitted to relay additional information.The following sections were updated: b4, b5, g3, g6, h2, h6, h10.It was reported the patient was revised for progression of osteoarthritis.Disease progression of osteoarthritis can continue in native bone structures as a patient continues to age.Other patient comorbidities, lifestyle, physical activities and some medications can increase the patient's risk for progressive osteoarthritis.Partial knee replacement is done to decrease pain, and increase flexibility, mobility and overall improve quality of life as this is one of the least invasive approaches.Patients with disease progression of osteoarthritis in the affected joint develop knee pain and decrease in joint flexibility.As osteoarthritis progresses a loss of cartilage in the previously unaffected area of the knee has deteriorated to a point in which the patient and doctor may elect to take an approach to convert to a full-knee replacement to alleviate symptoms.If any further information is found which would change or alter any conclusions or information, a supplemental will be filed accordingly.Zimmer biomet will continue to monitor for trends.
