Intended 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
Hedrocel Trabecular Metal Reconstruction The System is manufactured wholly of Hedrocel porous tantalum. Hedrocel porous tantalum is 80% porous with fully interconnecting pores that are about 0.5mm in diameter. This line extension adds components with a variety of cross-sections and heights to the Hedrocel Trabecular Metal Reconstruction System.

No
The description focuses on the material properties and intended use of a porous tantalum implant for bone reconstruction, with no mention of AI or ML.

No.
The device is described as a reconstruction system used to reinforce weak or deficient bony tissues, making it a structural implant rather than a device intended to treat or cure a disease or condition.

No

The device is described as a "Reconstruction System" intended for reinforcing weak or deficient bony tissues in orthopedic surgical procedures. Its purpose is structural support, not to diagnose medical conditions or diseases.

No

The device description explicitly states it is manufactured wholly of Hedrocel porous tantalum, which is a physical material used for reconstruction. This indicates it is a hardware device, not software-only.

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 device used in vivo (within the body) for reinforcing bony tissues during surgical procedures. IVDs are used in vitro (outside the body) to examine specimens from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Device Description: The device is a physical implant made of porous tantalum, designed to be surgically placed. This is consistent with a surgical implant, not an IVD.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples, reagents, or any of the typical components or processes associated with IVD devices.

Therefore, the Hedrocel Trabecular Metal Reconstruction System is a surgical implant, not an IVD.

Dear Ms. Halevi:

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.
