MR Conditional — conditions not yet documented here. We have a Conditional label for this device but the specific scan conditions (field strength, SAR / B1+rms, monitoring requirements) aren't in our records yet. Treat as Not determined and let your MRI team confirm before any scan.
Here's what to do next — you're going to be okay:
- Bring your device card (the wallet card from your surgery) to your appointment. Your MRI team can identify any device from it.
- Call the manufacturer's patient line — the number is on your card. They answer device questions every day.
- Tell your imaging center about your device when you book. They screen every patient before every scan — no one will scan you unless it's safe.
Don't schedule an MRI based on this page alone — your MRI team verifies every device.

FDA Recall Alert
Class I — Most SeriousThe drill bit used to drill the hex pre-drilled hole in the screw head of the Tibial Augment Bolts included in the Vanguard 360 Revision Knee System was larger than allowable per the process specification. As a result, the hex geometry can still be visible, but there are radial cuts into the hex flat. Therefore, when the bolt is inserted into the augment, the screwdriver is unable to catch on the hex geometry, or the screwdriver strips the remaining hex geometry, and the bolt is unable to be fully tightened. The bolt stripping or the bolt not being fully tightened will be noticed by the surgeon intraoperatively when he or she is unable to screw the augment bolts into the augment. This possible event can result in an intraoperative delay resulting in increased time under anesthesia.
