Intended Use
The Unicompartmental Knee Resurfacing Prosthesis (UniCAP ™) is indicated for use as a partial replacement of the articulating surfaces of the knee when only one side of the joint is affected due to the compartmental primary degenerative or post-traumatic degenerative disease, previous tibial condyle or plateau fractures, deformity or revision of previous arthroplasty. This device is intended to be used with bone cement.
Device Description
The Unicompartmental Knee Resurfacing Prosthesis (UniCAP™) incorporates a low-profile femoral articular component that mates to a taper post via a taper interlock. The femoral resurfacing component articulates against an allpolyethylene tibial resurfacing component. The UniCAP™ implants allow resurfacing of the compartment utilizing the undisturbed compartmental structures and soft-tissues. The femoral articular component is manufactured of a Cobalt-Chromium-Molybdenum alloy per ASTM F799 and ASTM F1537. The femoral articular component has a bone contact surface that is coated with a spray-applied CP Titanium coating (identical to sponsor's previously approved devices) and a xpolished articular bearing surface. The taper post component is a cylindrical threaded stem 20mm in length, manufactured of a Ti-6AI-4V ELI alloy per ASTM F136. The post has a tapering major and minor diameter, a full-length cannulation, and a proximal female taper bore. The tibial resurfacing component is comprised of ultra high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) manufactured and tested to meet standards specified in ASTM D 648. The tibial component is offered in a range of thickness ( 6.0 mm, 6.5 mm, 7.0 mm and 7.5 mm) accommodate a variety of tibial surface conditions. The components have been designed to allow a minimum amount of bone and soft tissue resection. The UniCAP™ system offers the surgeon a high degree of precision and flexibility in sizing and fitting the articular components to the existing anatomy.

No
The description focuses solely on the materials, design, and mechanical function of the knee resurfacing prosthesis. There is no mention of any software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate the use of AI or ML.

Yes.
The device is a partial replacement for the articulating surfaces of the knee, which is a medical intervention intended to treat diseased or damaged body parts.

No

Explanation: This device is a prosthesis used for partial replacement of knee articulating surfaces, which is a therapeutic intervention, not a diagnostic one.

No

The device description clearly outlines physical components made of metal alloys and polyethylene, indicating it is a hardware medical device, not software-only.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information about a person's health. This testing is done outside of the body.
  • Device Description: The provided text describes a surgical implant designed to be placed inside the human body to replace damaged parts of the knee joint.
  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it's a "partial replacement of the articulating surfaces of the knee." This is a surgical procedure, not an in vitro test.

The device is a medical device, specifically a prosthetic implant, but it does not fit the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

§ 888.3520 Knee joint femorotibial metal/polymer non-constrained cemented prosthesis.

(a)
Identification. A knee joint femorotibial metal/polymer non-constrained cemented prosthesis is a device intended to be implanted to replace part of a knee joint. The device limits minimally (less than normal anatomic constraints) translation in one or more planes. It has no linkage across-the-joint. This generic type of device includes prostheses that have a femoral condylar resurfacing component or components made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum, and a tibial component or components made of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene and are intended for use with bone cement (§ 888.3027).(b)
Classification. Class II.
