Intended Use
VersaBond® Bone Cement is indicated for use as bone cement in arthroplastic procedures of the hip, knee, and other joints to fix plastic and metal prosthetic parts to living bone when reconstruction is necessary because of osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, traumatic arthritis, avascular necrosis, nonunion of fractures of the femur, osteoporosis, secondary severe joint destruction following trauma or other conditions, and revision of previous arthroplasty procedures.
Device Description
VersaBond Bone Cement consists of two separate components: polymer powder and monomer liguid. The two components are packaged together and are pre-measured, sterilized components which, when mixed, form a radiopaque, rapidly setting bone cement.
More Information

Not Found

No
The 510(k) summary describes a bone cement, a material used for fixation, with no mention of software, algorithms, or any computational processing that would involve AI or ML.

No.
The device description indicates that VersaBond® Bone Cement is a material used to fix prosthetic parts to bone, not a device that directly treats or alleviates a condition itself.

No

Explanation: The device is a bone cement used to fix prosthetic parts to bone during surgical procedures. Its intended use is described as an implantable material for joint reconstruction, not for identifying or diagnosing diseases or conditions.

No

The device description clearly states it consists of physical components (polymer powder and monomer liquid) that are mixed to form a bone cement, indicating it is a physical medical device, not software-only.

No, 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. This information is used for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • VersaBond Bone Cement Function: VersaBond Bone Cement is a material used during surgery to fix prosthetic parts to bone. It is a physical implant/material used directly on the patient's body, not a device that analyzes samples taken from the body.

The provided information clearly describes a surgical implant material, not a diagnostic test performed on a sample.

§ 888.3027 Polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) bone cement.

(a)
Identification. Polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) bone cement is a device intended to be implanted that is made from methylmethacrylate, polymethylmethacrylate, esters of methacrylic acid, or copolymers containing polymethylmethacrylate and polystyrene. The device is intended for use in arthroplastic procedures of the hip, knee, and other joints for the fixation of polymer or metallic prosthetic implants to living bone.(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). The special control for this device is the FDA guidance document entitled “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) Bone Cement.”
