Intended Use
Indicated for use in knee arthroplasty for reduction or relief of pain and/or improved knee function in skeletally mature patients with the following conditions: 1) noninflammatory degenerative joint disease including osteoarthritis, traumatic arthritis, or avascular necrosis; 2) inflammatory degenerative joint disease including rheumatoid arthritis; 3) correction of functional deformity; 4) revision procedures where other treatments or devices have failed; and 5) treatment of fractures that are unmanageable using other techniques. Unicondylar knee system is indicated for patients with unicompartmental joint disease secondary to the above indications with or without valgus, varus, or flexion deformities where all ligaments are intact. The ADVANCE® Unicondylar Knee System components are for single use only. The ADVANCE® Unicondylar Knee System components are for cemented use only.
Device Description
The ADVANCE® Unicondylar Knee System Less Conforming Tibial Component will be offered based on surgeon preference and patients requiring less conforming tibial components. The tibial components will consist of all poly ultra high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE). The design features of ADVANCE® Less Conforming Tibial Component are substantially equivalent to the design features of previously cleared predicate devices cited in this Premarket Notification.

No
The document describes a knee implant system made of UHMWPE and focuses on its intended use and material composition, with no mention of AI or ML.

Yes
The device is indicated for the reduction or relief of pain and improved knee function in patients with various degenerative joint diseases and fractures, which aligns with the definition of a therapeutic device.

No
The device is a knee system intended for surgical intervention to reduce pain and improve knee function, not to diagnose a condition.

No

The device description explicitly states the device is a "tibial component" made of "ultra high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE)", which is a physical hardware component.

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 treating knee conditions. This is a therapeutic device, not a diagnostic one.
  • Device Description: The device is described as a knee system component made of UHMWPE, designed for surgical implantation. This aligns with a medical device used in surgery, not a diagnostic test.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Elements: There is no mention of analyzing samples (blood, tissue, etc.), detecting biomarkers, or providing information for diagnosis.
  • Anatomical Site: The device is used directly on the knee joint during surgery. IVDs typically interact with biological samples.

Therefore, this device falls under the category of a medical device used for surgical treatment, 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.

Dear Mr. Crabtree:

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,
