More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a mechanical implant and does not mention any AI or ML components or functionalities.

Yes
The device is intended for the "replacement of the painful wrist joint," which directly addresses and alleviates a medical condition (arthritis), thus serving a therapeutic purpose.

No
The information provided describes a wrist implant intended for joint replacement, not for diagnosing medical conditions. Its purpose is to treat existing conditions rather than to identify them.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a wrist implant, which is a physical hardware device. The performance studies also mention fatigue and wear testing, which are relevant to hardware components.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for the replacement of a painful wrist joint due to various types of arthritis. This is a surgical implant used in vivo (within the body) to treat a condition.
  • Device Description: The description confirms it's a wrist implant, a physical device intended for surgical implantation.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, tissue) in vitro (outside the body) to provide information about a patient's health.

IVDs are typically tests or devices used to analyze samples from the body to diagnose, monitor, or screen for diseases or conditions. This wrist implant does not fit that description.

§ 888.3800 Wrist joint metal/polymer semi-constrained cemented prosthesis.

(a)
Identification. A wrist joint metal/polymer semi-constrained cemented prosthesis is a device intended to be implanted to replace a wrist 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 either a one-part radial component made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum, with an ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene bearing surface, or a two-part radial component made of alloys and an ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene ball that is mounted on the radial component with a trunnion bearing. The metallic portion of the two-part radial component is inserted into the radius. These devices have a metacarpal component(s) made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum. This generic type of device is limited to those prostheses intended for use with bone cement (§ 888.3027).(b)
Classification. Class II.

Dear Mr. Plunkett:

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.
