Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study is a post-market follow-up study. The data collected from this study will serve the purpose of confirming the safety and performance of the JuggerStitch Device used for meniscal repair according to the product labelling (Instruction For Use).

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This study is a post-market follow-up study to fulfil the post-market surveillance obligations according to Medical Device Directive and MEDDEV 2.12/2 and the Medical Devices Regulation (MDR 2017/745). The data collected from this study will serve the purpose of confirming the safety and performance of the JuggerStitch Device used for meniscal repair according to the product labelling (IFU).

The objectives of the study are to calculate the overall clinical success rate and the performance, and confirm the safety of the JuggerStitch Meniscal Repair Device. The primary endpoint of this study is defined by the absence of reoperation due to meniscal tear. This will be measured against the success criteria of the absence of reoperation in 90.2% of the cases at one year.
