Intended Use
1) Non-inflammatory degenerative joint disease including osteoarthritis and avascular necrosis, 2) Rheumatoid arthritis, 3) Correction of functional deformity 4) Treatment of nonunion, femoral neck and trochanteric fractures of the proximal femur with head involvement, unmanageable using other techniques, 5) Revision of previously failed total hip arthroplasty. Intended for cemented and uncemented applications
Device Description
The ArComXLTM polyethylene liners are manufactured from highly cross-linked polyethylene conforming to ASTM F648 that was previously cleared in K042051. ArComXLTM is available in three designs: MaxRom, Hi-Wall, and 10o. Biolox® delta Ceramic Heads (K042091) are composed of Transition-Toughened-Platelet-Alumina (TTPA). The highly polished spherical surface articulates with the ArComXLTM polyethylene liner acetabular component. The modular head attaches to a metallic femoral stem with a Biomet Type I taper.
More Information

No
The device description and performance studies focus on the material properties and mechanical performance of the hip implant components, with no mention of AI or ML.

Yes
The device is a component of a total hip arthroplasty, which is used to treat various degenerative joint diseases and correct functional deformities, thus restoring function and alleviating symptoms.

No
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section lists conditions that the device treats (e.g., degenerative joint disease, rheumatoid arthritis, fractures, nonunion, failed arthroplasty), and the "Device Description" details parts of an orthopedic implant (polyethylene liners, ceramic heads). There is no mention of the device being used to identify, detect, or monitor a medical condition.

No

The device description clearly details physical components (polyethylene liners, ceramic heads, metallic femoral stem) and their materials, indicating it is a hardware medical device.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health.
  • Device Description and Intended Use: The provided information clearly describes a hip joint implant (acetabular liners and ceramic heads) used for surgical replacement of the hip joint. Its intended uses are related to treating various conditions affecting the hip joint through surgical intervention.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Testing: There is no mention of this device being used to analyze biological samples or provide diagnostic information. Its function is purely mechanical and structural, replacing damaged parts of the hip joint.

Therefore, based on the provided information, this device is a surgical implant, not an In Vitro Diagnostic.

§ 888.3353 Hip joint metal/ceramic/polymer semi-constrained cemented or nonporous uncemented prosthesis.

(a)
Identification. A hip joint metal/ceramic/polymer semi-constrained cemented or nonporous uncemented prosthesis is a device intended to be implanted to replace a hip joint. This device limits translation and rotation in one or more planes via the geometry of its articulating surfaces. It has no linkage across-the-joint. The two-part femoral component consists of a femoral stem made of alloys to be fixed in the intramedullary canal of the femur by impaction with or without use of bone cement. The proximal end of the femoral stem is tapered with a surface that ensures positive locking with the spherical ceramic (aluminium oxide, A12 03 ) head of the femoral component. The acetabular component is made of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene or ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene reinforced with nonporous metal alloys, and used with or without bone cement.(b)
Classification. Class II.
