Intended Use
The Futura Biomedical Arthrorisis Implant is intended to treat hyperpronated foot and stabilize the subtalar joint. It is intended to block forward, downward and medial displacement of the talus, thus allowing normal subtalar joint motion but blocking excessive pronation and the resulting sequela. Examples include: Flat foot treatment in children and adolescents Congenital flat foot Unsuccessful long term orthopaedic treatment (shoes, insoles ...) Tarsal coalitions Painful flat foot Supple deformity in posterior tibial tendon dysfunction Paralytic flat foot Subtalar instability
Device Description
The Futura Biomedical Implant is a one-piece device made of Titanium (6AL-4V ELI) intended to be implanted into the sinus tarsi of the foot. The implant is designed in 6 sizes. The implant which is used in the treatment of excessive motion of the talus relative to the calcaneus acts as a spacer for the joint, maintaining the joint space, allowing for range of motion, but limiting excessive pronation.
More Information

Not Found

No
The 510(k) summary describes a purely mechanical implant and makes no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or any data-driven algorithms.

Yes.
The device is intended to treat a medical condition (hyperpronated foot and stabilize the subtalar joint) and block excessive pronation and its resulting sequelae, which aligns with the definition of a therapeutic device.

No
The device is an implant designed to treat a medical condition (hyperpronated foot and stabilize the subtalar joint) by acting as a spacer, not to diagnose a condition.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a one-piece implant made of Titanium intended to be implanted into the foot, indicating it is a physical hardware device, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health.
  • Device Description: The Futura Biomedical Arthrorisis Implant is a physical implant made of titanium that is surgically placed into the sinus tarsi of the foot. It directly interacts with the body's structure to treat a condition.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is to treat hyperpronated foot and stabilize the subtalar joint by physically blocking excessive motion. This is a therapeutic intervention, not a diagnostic test performed on a specimen.

Therefore, this device falls under the category of a surgical implant or orthopedic device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic.

§ 888.3040 Smooth or threaded metallic bone fixation fastener.

(a)
Identification. A smooth or threaded metallic bone fixation fastener is a device intended to be implanted that consists of a stiff wire segment or rod made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum and stainless steel, and that may be smooth on the outside, fully or partially threaded, straight or U-shaped; and may be either blunt pointed, sharp pointed, or have a formed, slotted head on the end. It may be used for fixation of bone fractures, for bone reconstructions, as a guide pin for insertion of other implants, or it may be implanted through the skin so that a pulling force (traction) may be applied to the skeletal system.(b)
Classification. Class II.

Dear Ms. Focht:

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.
