Intended Use

The Z™ - Series Modular Total Hip System is indicated for use in total or partial hip replacement procedures for patients suffering severe pain and disability due to structural damage in the hip joint from rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, post-traumatic arthritis, collagen disorders, avascular necrosis, traumatic and non-union of femoral fractures. Use of the prosthesis is also indicated for patients with congenital hip dysplasia, protrusio acetabuli, slipped capital femoral epiphysis, and disability due to previous fusion, where bone stock is inadequate for other reconstruction techniques.

AI/ML Overview

This document is a 510(k) premarket notification from the FDA, specifically an approval letter for a medical device. It does not contain information about acceptance criteria or a study proving that a device meets such criteria.

The document states that the FDA has reviewed the 510(k) premarket notification for the "Z™-Series Modular Total Hip System" and found it to be substantially equivalent to legally marketed predicate devices. This is a regulatory determination, not a statement about performance against specific acceptance criteria from a study.

Therefore, I cannot extract the requested information as it is not present in the provided text.

§ 888.3358 Hip joint metal/polymer/metal semi-constrained porous-coated uncemented prosthesis.

(a)
Identification. A hip joint metal/polymer/metal semi-constrained porous-coated uncemented prosthesis is a device intended to be implanted to replace a hip 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 has a femoral component made of a cobalt-chromium-molybdenum (Co-Cr-Mo) alloy or a titanium-aluminum-vanadium (Ti-6Al-4V) alloy and an acetabular component composed of an ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene articulating bearing surface fixed in a metal shell made of Co-Cr-Mo or Ti-6Al-4V. The femoral stem and acetabular shell have a porous coating made of, in the case of Co-Cr-Mo substrates, beads of the same alloy, and in the case of Ti-6Al-4V substrates, fibers of commercially pure titanium or Ti-6Al-4V alloy. The porous coating has a volume porosity between 30 and 70 percent, an average pore size between 100 and 1,000 microns, interconnecting porosity, and a porous coating thickness between 500 and 1,500 microns. The generic type of device has a design to achieve biological fixation to bone without the use of bone cement.(b)
