Intended Use
Tecres Cement Restrictors are indicated for the blockage of the femoral medullary canal prior to cement insertion and as an aid to cemented hip arthroplasty procedures.
Device Description
The cement restrictor is a single, molded component intended to be used for blocking the diaphysis of the femoral canal. It is positioned a few centimeters distal to the distal tip of the prosthesis stem or the stem's centralizer to prevent migration of bone cement beyond the proximal zone of the femoral medullary canal. The cement restrictor is positioned with the aid of an insertion instrument. The restrictors are manufactured of radiolucent medical grade Ultra-High Molecular-Weight Polyethylene (UHMWPE) per ASTM standard F648-00, and ISO standards ISO 5834-1:1998 and ISO 5834-2:1998. They are manufactured in two sizes: "Small" and "Large." The small restrictors are to be used for femoral medullary canals ranging from 12 to 18 mm. The large restrictors are to be used for femoral medullary canals ranging from 18 to 24 mm.
More Information

Not Found

No
The device description and intended use describe a purely mechanical component made of UHMWPE, with no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate the use of AI/ML.

No
The device is a cement restrictor used as an aid in hip arthroplasty procedures to block the femoral medullary canal and prevent cement migration, not to treat or diagnose a disease or condition.

No

This device is designed to block the femoral medullary canal during surgery, which is a therapeutic function, not a diagnostic one. It does not provide information about a patient's health condition or disease.

No

The device description clearly states it is a single, molded component made of UHMWPE, which is a physical material, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health. They are used outside the body.
  • Device Description: The Tecres Cement Restrictor is a physical component intended to be implanted inside the body during a surgical procedure (hip arthroplasty). It acts as a physical barrier within the femoral medullary canal.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is to block the femoral medullary canal and aid in cemented hip arthroplasty procedures. This is a surgical intervention, not a diagnostic test performed on a sample.

The device is a surgical implant/accessory, not a diagnostic tool that analyzes biological samples.

They are manufactured in two sizes: "Small" and "Large." The small restrictors are to be used for femoral medullary canals ranging from 12 to 18 mm. The large restrictors are to be used for femoral medullary canals ranging from 18 to 24 mm.

One of each size restrictor is packaged in a bone cement preparation kit with other bone cement accessories, including:

  • The cement restrictor inserter .
  • A femoral canal brush .
  • A femoral canal sponge ●
  • A cement pressurizer, and ●
  • Two curettes to aid in removal of excess bone cement. .

The kit's packaging consists of a two-tray system with Copolyester (PETG) blister packs and Tyvek lids.

An alternative packaging is available in which a single restrictor is loaded onto its disposable, medical-grade Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS) insertion instrument. This assembly is packaged in double pouch system consisting of a laminate of polyethylene and polyamide. The final packaging for this version consists of a cardboard box.

Dear Dr. Miller:

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.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
