The summary describes a mechanical knee implant system and its performance testing, with no mention of AI or ML technology.
Yes
The Active Knee® System is a medical device intended to treat and correct various knee joint conditions, including degenerative diseases, deformities, and fractures, which aligns with the definition of a therapeutic device.
No
The device description and intended use indicate it is an implantable medical device (knee replacement system) used for treatment, not for diagnosing conditions.
No
The device description explicitly lists hardware components (femoral component, meniscal inserts, patella, tibial baseplate) and the performance studies describe testing of these physical prostheses.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
- Device Description and Intended Use: The Active Knee® System is a physical implant designed to replace or repair a damaged knee joint. Its intended use is for surgical implantation in patients with specific knee conditions.
- Lack of Biological Sample Analysis: The description and intended use do not involve the analysis of any biological samples from the patient.
Therefore, the Active Knee® System falls under the category of a medical device (specifically, a prosthetic implant), not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Device Description
The Active Knee System is a modular knee system consisting of a femoral component, a standard meniscal insert, an ultracongruent meniscal insert (tibial insert), a patella, and a tibial baseplate.
Femoral Component
The femoral component is an anatomic, asymmetrically designed prosthesis manufactured from cast cobalt chromium/molybdenum (ASTM F75). The condylar prosthesis was designed for optimal weight transmission and flexion as well as giving maximum contact area to reduce material stress on the meniscal The design incorporates a trochlear groove, which conforms to the insert. geometry of the patellar prosthesis and allows for sliding articulation. From the medial/lateral view, the condylar geometry has a radial inward and upward sweep in the coronal plane, which assists in maximizing the contact area. Anterior and posterior cuts are not parallel. There is a two (2) degree flaring, encouraging loading distally.
The interior box of the cemented femur is designed with a recess into the distal end of the prosthesis to enhance polvmethylmethacrvlate (PMMA) fixation.
The femoral components are available in seven (7) sizes: small medium. regular-narrow, regular, large-narrow and extra large in both a right and left implant.
Tibial Baseplates
The tibial baseplates are symmetrical . The baseplates are manufactured from grit-blasted cobalt chromium/molybdenum (ASTM F75). The baseplates are available in ten (10) sizes, small, medium, regular, large and extra-large, in both a narrow and a wide version.
The inferior surface of the tibial baseplate is grit blasted to further enhance cement fixation. A central keel on the inferior surface allows for insertion onto the tibia.
Standard Meniscal Insert (Tibial Insert)
The standard meniscal insert is symmetrical and available in seven (7) sizes, small, medium, regular narrow, large, large, large narrow, extra-large, of five (5) different thickness of each (6mm, 7.5mm, 11.5mm, 13.5mm). The minimum polyethylene thickness is 6mm. The meniscal insert is designed with a clip-on mechanism on the underside to secure a firm seat in the capture feature of the tibial tray.
The standard meniscal insert is a semi-constrained condylar design and is manufactured from Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMWPe, ASTM F-468). Additional posterior stability can be provided utilizing the ultracongruent meniscal insert, which is designed with an anterior lip.
Patella
The patella has a dome shape with the reverse curvature of the femoral condyles. The patello-femoral geometry consists of a deep trochlear groove for complete articular conformity. The patella is designed with three (3) small stems for fixation with PMMA cement. The patella is available in five sizes, small, medium, reqular, large, and extra-large.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
Performance testing was conducted for the Active Knee System as recommended by the FDA Draft Guidance for the Preparation of Premarket Notifications 510(k)s for Cemented, Semi-Constrained Total Knee Prosthesis dated April 1993 and updated on December 8, 1998. The testing was conducted for the femoral, tibial baseplate, standard meniscal insert, ultracongruent meniscal insert (posterior stabilizer) and the patella prostheses. Testing consisted of range of motion and constraint (stability characteristics), surface roughness characteristics, contact areas and surface stress, resistance to lateral subluxation and fatigue strength.
When compared to other contemporary knee designs, the Active Knee System demonstrated similar performance characteristics.

§ 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.
