No
The document describes a physical medical device (ceramic ball heads for hip replacement) and does not mention any software, algorithms, or data processing related to AI/ML.
Yes
The device is indicated for the treatment of severely disabled hip joints resulting from various arthritic conditions and avascular necrosis, which directly addresses a medical condition.
No
The device is a ceramic ball head, a component of a total hip system, used for the treatment of severely disabled hip joints. Its intended use is to replace or revise parts of the hip joint, which is a therapeutic rather than diagnostic function.
No
The device description clearly states it is adding ceramic ball heads to a total hip system, which are physical implants, not software.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes the device as being used in the treatment of severely disabled hip joints and for revision of previous hip surgeries. This is a therapeutic and surgical intervention, not a diagnostic test performed in vitro (outside the body).
- Device Description: The description details a physical implant (ceramic ball heads, femoral hip stem, acetabular cup) designed to be surgically placed within the body.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), detecting specific markers, or providing diagnostic information about a patient's condition based on laboratory testing.
IVDs are devices used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This device is a surgical implant used for treatment.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The SC Ceramic Ball Heads are indicated for use in the treatment of severely disabled hip joints resulting from painful osteo-,rheumatoid and post-traumatic arthritis, and the late stages of avascular necrosis, and for revision of previous hip surgeries. The SC Femoral Hip Stem is indicated for use with or without bone cement. The SC Acetabular Cup is for use with bone cement only.

Device Description
We added 6 sizes, 28 S, 28 M, 28 L, 32 S, 32 M, and 32 L of ceramic ball heads to the SC Total Hip System, which was cleared for marketing by FDA on 10/15/03 (K031474). These ball heads allow the surgeon a further option to meet the patient's needs.

§ 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)
