Intended Use
Intended for partial replacement of the articulating surfaces of the knee when only one side of the joint is affected due to compartmental primary degenerative or post-traumatic degenerative disease, previous tibial condyle or plateau fractures, deformity or revision of previous arthroplasty. The device is a single use implant intended for implantation with bone cement.
Device Description
The additional components that are the subject of this Special 510(k) submission are the tibial inserts and baseplates. These components are to be used with the femoral components of the Uni Knee cleared in K020741. The tibial inserts of this submission are the similar the tibial components in K020741 with the addition of a snap feature on the non-articulating side. This snap feature is meant to be used with the tibial baseplate. The tibial inserts are manufactured from UHMWPE that conforms to ASTM F648 and are available in 5 sizes (35-45 mm) and 3 thicknesses (6-8 mm). The tibial baseplates are manufactured from CoCr alloy that conforms to ASTM F75 and are available in 5 sizes (35-45 mm) and 2 configurations (left medial/right lateral and right medial/left lateral).
More Information

No
The summary describes a knee implant with mechanical components and does not mention any software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate the use of AI/ML.

Yes
The device is intended for partial replacement of articulating surfaces of the knee due to degenerative disease or fractures, which indicates a therapeutic purpose to restore function and alleviate symptoms.

No
The device is described as an implantable prosthetic used for partial replacement of knee articulating surfaces, not for diagnosing medical conditions.

No

The device description clearly outlines physical components (tibial inserts and baseplates made of UHMWPE and CoCr alloy) intended for surgical implantation, indicating it is a hardware medical device.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes a surgical implant for partial replacement of knee articulating surfaces. This is a device used in vivo (within the body) during a surgical procedure.
  • Device Description: The device components are described as tibial inserts and baseplates made from materials like UHMWPE and CoCr alloy, designed for implantation with bone cement. These are physical implants.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue, etc.) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment. IVDs are typically used in laboratories or point-of-care settings to analyze biological samples.

Therefore, this device falls under the category of a surgical implant, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

§ 888.3530 Knee joint femorotibial metal/polymer semi-constrained cemented prosthesis.

(a)
Identification. A knee joint femorotibial metal/polymer semi-constrained cemented prosthesis is a device intended to be implanted to replace part of 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 consist of a femoral component made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum, and a tibial component made of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene and is limited to those prostheses intended for use with bone cement (§ 888.3027).(b)
Classification. Class II.
