The summary describes a mechanical knee prosthesis and does not mention any software, algorithms, or AI/ML capabilities.
Yes
The device is a knee prosthesis intended for replacement in patients with various knee conditions, which aligns with the definition of a therapeutic device designed to treat or alleviate a medical condition.
No
The device, TC-PLUS™ Solution Knee, is a total knee prosthesis intended for surgical implantation as a replacement for the knee joint. Its purpose is to treat conditions like arthritis and deformities, not to diagnose them.
No
The device description clearly states it is a "tri-compartmental total knee prosthesis comprised of femoral, patellar and tibial components," which are physical hardware components.
No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information about a person's health.
- Device Description: The TC-PLUS™ Solution Knee is a prosthetic implant designed to replace parts of the knee joint. It is surgically implanted into the body.
- Intended Use: The intended use describes the surgical implantation of the device to treat knee conditions. It does not involve the analysis of bodily specimens.
Therefore, based on the provided information, the TC-PLUS™ Solution Knee is a surgical implant, not an in vitro diagnostic device.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The TC-PLUS™ Solution Knee is intended as a cemented surface replacement in treating patients who are candidates for primary total knee arthroplasty or revision knee arthroplasty. It is indicated for post-traumatic or rheumatoid arthritis, avascular degenerative, necrosis of the femoral condyle, post-traumatic loss of joint configuration, in particular in the event of patello-femoral erosion, functional disability or an earlier patellectomy; moderate varus, valgus or flexure deformity and to correct earlier unsuccessful attempts at surgery.

Device Description
The TC-PLUS™ Solution is a tri-compartmental total knee prosthesis comprised of femoral, patellar and tibial components with an intrinsic Standard, Posterior Stabilized (PS) and Ultratibial PE-insert. Congruent components are available. The PS is available for indications requiring greater stability and the Ultracongruent option may be used as an alternative for increasing A/P stability.

§ 888.3560 Knee joint patellofemorotibial polymer/metal/polymer semi-constrained cemented prosthesis.
(a)
Identification. A knee joint patellofemorotibial polymer/metal/polymer semi-constrained cemented prosthesis is a device intended to be implanted to replace a knee joint. The device limits translation and rotation in one or more planes via the geometry of its articulating surfaces. It has no linkage across-the-joint. This generic type of device includes prostheses that have a femoral component made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum, and a tibial component or components and a retropatellar resurfacing component made of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene. This generic type of device is limited to those prostheses intended for use with bone cement (§ 888.3027).(b)
Classification. Class II.
