Intended Use
Partial replacement of 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 devices covered in this 510(k) are intended to be used with Repicci™ Femoral Components. The device is a single use implant intended for implantation with bone cement.
Device Description
The Repicci II® Unicondylar Knee System consists of a femoral and tibial component. The Repicci™ tibial bearing is used with the Repicci™ femoral components (K971938). The all polyethylene tibial components are anatomical in geometry with right and left medial/lateral allocations. Located on the inferior surface of the implant is a face with fixation holes and a keel.
More Information

No
The summary describes a mechanical implant and does not mention any software, algorithms, or AI/ML capabilities.

No
The device is described as an implantable component for partial knee replacement, which is a treatment for a medical condition rather than a diagnostic or monitoring tool.

No

This device is an implantable knee system used for partial replacement of the knee joint. Its intended use is to treat degenerative or post-traumatic diseases affecting one side of the knee joint, as well as deformities or revisions of previous arthroplasty. It is a treatment device, not a diagnostic one.

No

The device description clearly states that the device is an implantable knee system consisting of physical components (femoral and tibial components, tibial bearing). There is no mention of software as the primary or sole component.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use describes a surgical implant for replacing parts of the knee joint. This is a therapeutic device, not a diagnostic one.
  • Device Description: The device is described as an all-polyethylene tibial component with a keel and fixation holes, designed for implantation with bone cement. This is consistent with a surgical implant.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Elements: There is no mention of the device being used to test samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.) or to provide information about a patient's health status based on in vitro analysis.
  • Anatomical Site: The anatomical site is the knee, which is where the implant is placed, not where a diagnostic test would be performed.

IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This device is a physical implant used to treat a condition, not to diagnose it.

§ 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.

The Repicci II® Unicondylar Knee System consists of a femoral and tibial Device Description: component. The Repicci™ tibial bearing is used with the Repicci™ femoral components (K971938).

The all polyethylene tibial components are anatomical in geometry with right and left medial/lateral allocations. Located on the inferior surface of the implant is a face with fixation holes and a keel.

Intended Use: Partial replacement of 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 devices covered in this 510(k) are intended to be used with Repicci™ Femoral Components.

The device is a single use implant intended for implantation with bone cement.

Summary of Technologies: The Repicci™ Locked Keel Tibial components materials, design, sizing, and indications are similar to, or identical to the predicate devices. This submission modifies the keel on the inferior surface of the implant and removes the waffle pattern.

Non-Clinical Testing: An engineering justification determined that the Repicci™ Locked Keel tibial components presented no new risks and were; therefore, substantially equivalent to the predicate device.

Clinical Testing: None provided as a basis for substantial equivalence.

Dear Ms. Bickel:

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
