Intended Use
The Duracon® CS (Condylar Stabilizing) Tibial Inserts are intended to be used with Duracon® Universal and Cruciform tibial baseplates, Duracon® Cruciate Retaining femoral components and Duracon® patellar components as part of a total knee system in primary cemented total knee arthroplasty. These inserts are intended to be used in cases where there is destruction of the joint surfaces with or without bone deformity, where the cruciate ligaments are inadequate, not present, or cannot be preserved during the operative procedure, especially when anterior-posterior stability is impaired due to absence of the patella. The collateral ligaments should be intact if this insert is utilized. Because this insert does not incorporate a support post, it can accommodate the posterior cruciate ligament if it is present. More specific indications/contraindications are listed below: Indications - Noninflammatory degenerative joint disease including osteoarthritis, traumatic I arthritis or avascular necrosis, - Rheumatoid arthritis, - 비 Correction of functional deformity, - Post-traumatic loss of joint anatomy, particularly when there is patello-femoral 미 erosion, dysfunction or prior patellectomy; and, - Irreparable fracture of the knee
Device Description
The subject Duracon® CS Tibial Insert is an ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene tibial insert designed to be used with the femoral, tibial, and patellar components of the Duracon® Total Knee System. This insert is available in small, medium, large, and extralarge sizes in the following thicknesses: 9mm, 11mm, 16m, 19mm, 22mm, and 25mm. The subject insert has a dished articulating surface geometry to provide anatomic rollback, flexion-extension and internal-external rotation. The subject tibial insert features a raised anterior eminence designed to provide greater anterior constraint in situations where the posterior cruciate ligament is not present or not functional. This anterior eminence is designed to provide substitution for the posterior cruciate ligament if it is not present or cannot be preserved. The subject insert provides approximately 37 percent more constraint than the predicate Duracon® AP Lipped Tibial Insert, without any increase in rotational constraint. The subject insert does not feature a support post. This allows the Duracon® Condylar Stabilizing (CS) Lipped Tibial Insert to be used with the Duracon® Condylar Femoral Components. These condylar femoral components do not require the removal of additional bone from the distal surface of the femur. Because this insert does not feature a support post, it may also be used in situations where the posterior cruciate ligament is present. The geometry of the insert will accommodate the PCL if it is present. The subject Duracon® CS Tibial Insert features the same locking mechanism as the previously released Duracon® Condylar and AP Lipped Tibial Insert.

No
The device description focuses on the physical design and mechanical properties of a tibial insert for knee replacement, with no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate AI/ML.

Yes
The device is a tibial insert used in total knee arthroplasty to correct functional deformity and replace damaged joint surfaces, directly treating a medical condition.

No

This device is a tibial insert, which is a component of a total knee replacement system used for surgical implantation, not for diagnosing conditions.

No

The device description clearly describes a physical implant made of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene, which is a hardware component.

Based on the provided text, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the device is a component of a total knee system for primary cemented total knee arthroplasty. This is a surgical procedure performed in vivo (within the body) to replace a damaged knee joint.
  • Device Description: The description details a physical implant made of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene, designed to articulate with other components of a knee replacement system. This is a medical device intended for implantation, not for testing samples in vitro (outside the body).
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The text does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
    • Analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
    • Providing diagnostic information based on laboratory tests
    • Using reagents or assays

The device is a surgical implant used to treat a medical condition directly within the patient's body.

§ 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.

Dear Ms. Crowe:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
