Intended Use
Total or hemi-shoulder replacement is indicated for: 1. A severely painful and/or disabled joint resulting from osteoarthritis, traumatic arthritis or rheumatoid arthritis; 2. Fracture-dislocations of the proximal humerus where the articular surface is severely comminuted, separated from its blood supply or where the surgeon's experience indicates that alternative methods of treatment are unsatisfactory; 3. Other difficult clinical problems where shoulder arthrodesis or resection arthroplasty are not acceptable (e.g., revision of a failed primary component). 4. Rotator cuff tear arthropathy. Hemi-shoulder replacement is also indicated for: 1. Ununited humeral head fractures; 2. Avascular necrosis of the humeral head. The Global Fx porous-coated humeral stem is intended for cemented or cementless use with fixation provided by biological tissue in-growth into the porous coating. Porocoat® Porous-Coated Components Porocoat® Porous-coated humeral stem prostheses are indicated for cementless use with fixation provided by biological tissue in-growth into the porous coating. Cemented Components Humeral stem and Glenoid components labeled "For cemented use only" are indicated only for use with bone cement.
Device Description
The Porous-coated Global Fx humeral stem is a modified Global Fx humeral stem. Porocoat® porous coating has been added to the proximal portion of the stem. The stem is manufactured from cobalt-chromium --molybdenum alloy conforming to ASTM F-75. The stem mates with humeral heads previously cleared as Global Advantage Head (K984541), Global Advantage CTA Heads (K000575) and the Global Advantage Eccentric Humeral Head (K992065).
More Information

No
The document describes a shoulder replacement system and its components, focusing on materials, indications for use, and predicate devices. There is no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or any data-driven algorithms typically associated with AI/ML in medical devices.

Yes
The device is a shoulder replacement system (humeral stem and glenoid components) indicated for use in severely painful and/or disabled joints resulting from various conditions like osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, fracture-dislocations, and other clinical problems, which directly addresses disease or injury.

No
The document describes a medical device for shoulder replacement surgery, not for diagnosing medical conditions. It outlines indications for use, device components, and materials, which are typical for an implantable prosthetic device.

No

The device description clearly describes a physical implant (humeral stem) made of cobalt-chromium-molybdenum alloy, which is a hardware component.

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, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Device Description and Intended Use: The provided text describes a shoulder replacement system, specifically a humeral stem and associated components. Its intended use is to replace a damaged shoulder joint due to various conditions like osteoarthritis, fractures, or failed previous surgeries.
  • Mechanism of Action: This device is an implantable prosthetic. It functions by physically replacing the damaged joint components, allowing for improved movement and reduced pain. It does not analyze biological specimens.

The information provided clearly indicates a surgical implant, not a device used for testing biological samples outside the body.

§ 888.3670 Shoulder joint metal/polymer/metal nonconstrained or semi-constrained porous-coated uncemented prosthesis.

(a)
Identification. A shoulder joint metal/polymer/metal nonconstrained or semi-constrained porous-coated uncemented prosthesis is a device intended to be implanted to replace a shoulder joint. The device limits movement in one or more planes. It has no linkage across-the-joint. This generic type of device includes prostheses that have a humeral component made of alloys such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum (Co-Cr-Mo) and titanium-aluminum-vanadium (Ti-6Al-4V) alloys, and a glenoid resurfacing component made of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene, or a combination of an articulating ultra-high molecular weight bearing surface fixed in a metal shell made of alloys such as Co-Cr-Mo and Ti-6Al-4V. The humeral component and glenoid backing have a porous coating made of, in the case of Co-Cr-Mo components, beads of the same alloy or commercially pure titanium powder, and in the case of Ti-6Al-4V components, beads or fibers of commercially pure titanium or Ti-6Al-4V alloy, or commercially pure titanium powder. The porous coating has a volume porosity between 30 and 70 percent, an average pore size between 100 and 1,000 microns, interconnecting porosity, and a porous coating thickness between 500 and 1,500 microns. This generic type of device is designed to achieve biological fixation to bone without the use of bone cement.(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). The special control for this device is FDA's “Class II Special Controls Guidance: Shoulder Joint Metal/Polymer/Metal Nonconstrained or Semi-Constrained Porous-Coated Uncemented Prosthesis.”

Substantial equivalence:

The Global Advantage Extended Humeral Head is substantially equivalent to the Global Fx Humeral Stem cleared in K984541. Both humeral stems have identical locking tapers, are tapered in design, come in similar sizes and are manufactured from the same materials. The only difference between the two stems is the addition of porous coating to the proximal portion of the stem.
