No
The device description and intended use focus on a porous tantalum implant for bone reconstruction, with no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate AI/ML.
No
The device is a reconstructive product (a structural void filler) intended to reinforce weak or deficient bone tissues, not to provide therapy.
No
The Hedrocel Trabecular Metal Reconstruction System is indicated for reinforcing weak and/or deficient bony tissues in orthopaedic surgical procedures, which is a therapeutic rather than a diagnostic function.
No
The device description explicitly states it is manufactured wholly of Hedrocel porous tantalum, which is a physical material, not software.
Based on the provided information, the Hedrocel Trabecular Metal Reconstruction System is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the device is used in "orthopaedic surgical procedures" to "reinforce weak and/or deficient bony tissues." This is a surgical implant used in vivo (within the body).
- Device Description: The description details a physical implant made of porous tantalum, designed to be placed within bone.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: IVD devices are used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) in vitro (outside the body) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. The provided information does not mention any such use or interaction with biological specimens outside the body.
Therefore, the Hedrocel Trabecular Metal Reconstruction System is a surgical implant, not an IVD.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The Hedrocel Trabecular Metal Reconstruction System is indicated for use in reinforcing weak and/or deficient bony tissues in orthopaedic surgical procedures such as pelvic reconstruction, acetabular reconstruction, cement restriction, and in long bone procedures such as femoral and humeral reconstruction. When used in long bone procedures, ancillary fixation, such as plates and screws, must be used. The Hedrocel Trabecular Metal Reconstruction System may also be used with bone graft.

Device Description
The Hedrocel Trabecular Metal Reconstructive System manufactured wholly of Hedrocel porous tantalum. Hedrocel porous tantalum is 80% porous with fully interconnecting pores that are about 0.5mm in diameter. The Hedrocel Trabecular Metal Reconstructive System has oval cross-sectional geometries of 11mm by 14mm and 21mm by 32mm and is available in height options ranging from 8mm to 62mm. The superior and inferior faces of the implant are canted (included angle of 7 degrees) to provide for initial stability and to facilitate implantation.

Dear Dr. Poggie:
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 (OS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
