Intended Use
Total hip and knee joint replacement in cases of: 1. Painful and disabled joint resulting from avascular necrosis, osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, traumatic arthritis 2. Correction of varus, valgus or post traumatic deformity 3. Correction of revision of unsuccessful osteotomy, arthrodesis, or previous joint replacement 4. Ligament deficiencies 5. Tumor resections 6. Treatment of non-unions, femoral neck and trochanteric fracture of the proximal femur with head involvement, unmanageable using other techniques 7. Revision of previously failed total joint replacement 8. Trauma
Device Description
The IM Total Femur is, in simplest terms, an intramedullary (IM) rod which connects a proximal hip replacement component to a knee femoral replacement component. The IM rods are slightly bowed to mimic the natural femur and find appropriate alignment. Both ends of the rod have a male taper for connection to the hip proximal femur and a knee femoral component. Following impaction, a locking screw further secures the parts. Two types of IM rods are available based on the tapers of the distal knee component selected by the surgeon. IM total femur rods with an "Impact" taper at one end and an "OSS" taper at the other come in 1cm increments for replacements of 35cm to 45cm. The second type of rod have an "Impact" taper at both ends and come in 3cm increments for replacement from 34 to 46cm. Femoral knee components are available with both "OSS" and "Impact" taper bores. The femoral knee components articulate with previously cleared tibial bearings, base-plates and femoral components. The device is compatible with any of Biomet's proximal modular hip components.
More Information

No
The device description and summary of performance studies focus on mechanical components and testing, with no mention of AI or ML.

Yes

This device is a total hip and knee joint replacement system, described as an IM rod connecting a proximal hip replacement component to a knee femoral replacement component. Its intended use includes addressing various painful and disabled joint conditions, correction of deformities, and revision of failed joint replacements or osteotomies, all of which aim to restore or improve the function of the joint. These characteristics align with the definition of a therapeutic device.

No

The device is a total hip and knee joint replacement system, designed to replace damaged or diseased portions of the femur, hip, and knee. Its purpose is to correct physical conditions and restore function, not to diagnose medical conditions.

No

The device description clearly describes a physical intramedullary rod and associated components, which are hardware.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are devices used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information for the diagnosis, treatment, or prevention of disease.
  • Device Description: The provided description clearly states that this device is an "intramedullary (IM) rod which connects a proximal hip replacement component to a knee femoral replacement component." This is a surgically implanted device used to replace a portion of the femur.
  • Intended Use: The intended use describes the conditions for which this device is used in surgical procedures (total hip and knee replacement, correction of deformities, revision surgeries, etc.). These are all surgical interventions, not diagnostic tests performed on specimens.

The device is a surgical implant used for orthopedic reconstruction.

N/A

Intended Use / Indications for Use

The device is intended to be implanted with bone cement in cases of:

  1. Painful and disabled joint resulting from avascular necrosis, osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, traumatic arthritis
  2. Correction of varus, valgus or post traumatic deformity
  3. Correction of revision of unsuccessful osteotomy, arthrodesis, or previous joint replacement
  4. Ligament deficiencies
  5. Tumor resections
  6. Treatment of non-unions, femoral neck and trochanteric fracture of the proximal femur with head involvement, unmanageable using other techniques
  7. Revision of previously failed total joint replacement
  8. Trauma

§ 888.3350 Hip joint metal/polymer semi-constrained cemented prosthesis.

(a)
Identification. A hip joint metal/polymer semi-constrained cemented 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 includes prostheses that have a femoral component made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum, and an acetabular resurfacing 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.
