No
The description focuses on force sensing and display, with no mention of AI/ML terms or capabilities. The device appears to be a direct measurement and display tool.
No
The device is a surgical tool that aids the surgeon in adjusting the femoral knee implant and balancing soft tissue structures; it does not directly apply therapy to a patient.
No.
The device is described as a tool for adjustment and balancing of knee implants during surgery, providing real-time force measurements. It does not diagnose a medical condition or disease.
No
The device description clearly states it consists of two hardware units: a force sensing unit and an electronic display unit.
No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are devices intended for use in the collection, preparation, and examination of specimens taken from the human body (such as blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for the diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment of a disease or condition.
- Device Function: This device is a surgical instrument used during a surgical procedure (Total Knee Arthroplasty) to measure forces within the knee joint. It does not analyze specimens taken from the body.
- Intended Use: The intended use is to aid the surgeon in adjusting the femoral knee implant and balancing soft tissue structures during the surgery. This is a procedural tool, not a diagnostic test performed on a specimen.
The device is clearly an orthopedic surgical instrument used in vivo (within the living body) during a surgical procedure.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
For use as a tool for adjustment of the femoral knee implant to reduce instability from flexion gap asymmetry. The force sensor is sterile, for single patient use.

Device Description
The device consists of two units, the force sensing unit and an electronic display. The eLIBRA Force Sensing Tibial Unit is a single use battery powered device designed to transmit an electronic signal to the eLIBRA Display Unit. The electronic signal represents the relative medial and lateral compartment forces generated from the soft tissue structures surrounding the knee joint during a total knee arthroplasty (TKA). The LIBRA Dynamic Knee Balancer eLIBRA Display Unit is a reusable battery powered device designed to receive an electronic signal from the eLIBRA Force Sensing Tibial Unit. The unit displays a number from 0-19 for both the medial and lateral compartments in the knee joint to aid the surgeon in balancing soft tissue structures during a total knee arthroplasty (TKA).

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
Both bench and clinical tests were performed. Bench testing included mechanical testing, radio frequency, and sterility testing, including EO residues. Clinical testing was performed to determine adequacy of instructions for use, the range of patient population, performance characteristics, and reliability. The results were satisfactory and revealed no concerns over safety and effectiveness as compared to predicate devices. The tests demonstrated that the device is as safe, as effective, and performs in a substantially equivalent manner to the predicate device.

- Trade Name: eLibra Dynamic Knee Balancer 1. Common Name: Orthopedic manual surgical instrument Classification Name: Orthopedic manual surgical instrument, product code LXH, Regulation: 888.4540 Class of device: Class I.
- The legally marketed device to which we are claiming equivalence [807.92(a)(3)] : The 2. Libra Dynamic Knee Balancer (510(k) exempt) manual orthopedic surgical instrument set.
- Description of device: The device consists of two units, the force sensing unit and an 3. electronic display. The eLIBRATM Force Sensing Tibial Unit is a single use battery powered device designed to transmit an electronic signal to the eLIBRA™ Display Unit. The electronic signal represents the relative medial and lateral compartment forces generated from the soft tissue structures surrounding the knee joint during a total knee arthroplasty (TKA). The LIBRA Dynamic Knee Balancer eLIBRATM Display Unit is a reusable battery powered device designed to receive an electronic signal from the eLIBRATM Force Sensing Tibial Unit. The unit displays a number from 0-19 for both the medial and lateral compartments in the knee joint to aid the surgeon in balancing soft tissue structures during a total knee arthroplasty (TKA).
- Intended use: For use as a tool for adjustment of the femoral knee implant to reduce 4. instability from flexion gap asymmetry. The force sensor is sterile, for single patient use.
- Technological characteristics: The subject device differs from the predicate manual ડ. orthopedic device in that it employs a WIRELESS connection to the digital display unit.
- Performance: Both bench and clinical tests were performed. Bench testing included 6. mechanical testing, radio frequency, and sterility testing. including EO residues. Clinical testing was performed to determine adequacy of instructions for use, the range of patient population, performance characteristics, and reliability. The results were satisfactory and revealed no concerns over safety and effectiveness as compared to predicate devices. The tests demonstrated that the device is as safe, as effective, and performs in a substantially equivalent manner to the predicate device.
