The description focuses on the physical components and their design based on patient imaging, without mentioning any AI/ML algorithms for analysis or decision-making. The "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML" field is explicitly marked as "Not Found".
Yes
The device is described as a component of knee repair systems intended to treat joint impairment due to osteoarthritis or traumatic arthritis, and other conditions that cause loss of function, which are therapeutic interventions.
No
The ConforMIS metal backed tibial component is an orthopedic implant for knee repair, intended for use in patients with osteoarthritis, traumatic arthritis, or knee deformities. It is a treatment device, not one that diagnoses conditions.
No
The device description explicitly states it consists of a cobalt-chrome alloy tray and a polyethylene insert, which are physical hardware components.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
- Device Description and Intended Use: The ConforMIS metal backed tibial component is a physical implant intended for surgical use in the knee to repair joint damage. It is a medical device used in vivo (within the body), not in vitro (outside the body).
- Lack of Diagnostic Function: The device itself does not perform any diagnostic testing on biological samples. Its purpose is to replace or repair damaged joint components.
Therefore, this device falls under the category of a surgical implant or prosthetic device, not an in vitro diagnostic.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The ConforMIS metal backed tibial component is intended for use with the ConforMIS Unicondylar Knee Repair System and the ConforMIS BiCompartmental Knee repair Systems, in patients with:
- joint impairment due to osteoarthritis or traumatic arthritis of the knee .
- previous tibial condyle or plateau fracture, creating loss of function .
- . valgus or varus deformity of the knee
The ConforMIS metal backed tibial component is intended only for use with bone cement.

Device Description
The ConforMIS Metal Backed Tibial Component is to be used with either the ConforMIS Unicondylar Knee Repair System or the BiCompartmental Knee Repair ConforMIS System to provide the surgeon with an alternative tibial component in the event that prefers to use a metal backed he/she component rather than an all polyethylene component. It consists of a cobalt-chrome alloy (CoCrMo) tray and a polyethylene insert. The X/Y dimensions of the device (i.e. the twodimensional shape or "footprint"). are designed to conform to the patient's anatomy as closely as possible based on images (MRI or CT scan) of the patient's knee. It is available with UHMEPE inserts with minimal thickness from 6 to 14 mm.

§ 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)

Dear Dr. Sharp:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); good manufacturing practice requirements as set

forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050. This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your Section 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.
If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801), please contact the Center for Devices and Radiological Health's (CDRH's) Office of Compliance at (240) 276-0120. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21CFR Part 807.97). For questions regarding postmarket surveillance, please contact CDRH's Office of Surveillance and Biometric's (OSB's) Division of Postmarket Surveillance at (240) 276-3474. For questions regarding the reporting of device adverse events (Medical Device Reporting (MDR)), please contact the Division of Surveillance Systems at (240) 276-3464. You may obtain other general information on your responsibilities under the Act from the Division of Small Manufacturers, International and Consumer Assistance at toll-free number (800) 638-2041 or (240) 276-3150 or the Internet address http://www.fda.gov/cdrh/industry/support/index.html.
