Intended Use
Joint replacement is indicated for patients suffering from disability due to: - noninflammatory degenerative joint disease including osteoarthritis and avascular . necrosis of the natural humeral head and/or glenoid; - . rheumatoid arthritis; - correction of functional deformity; . - . humeral fracture. This device may also be indicated in the salvage of previously failed surgical attempts. The glenoid components are indicated for cemented use only. Intended Use: Encore Medical shoulder devices are intended for treatment of patients who are candidates for shoulder arthroplasty per the indications for use. While shoulder replacements are not intended to withstand activity levels and loads of normal healthy bone, they are a means of restoring mobility and reducing pain for many patients.
Device Description
The Encore Shoulder System consists of a humeral stem, neck and head and a glenoid component. Components are offered for use for either primary or revision surgery applications. The humeral stem consists of proximal body that is rectangular in cross-sectional geometry and tapers proximal to distal. The distal stem is cylindrical with four flutes. Anterior and posterior fins are located on the proximal body to help provide rotational stability. The anterior and posterior fins have suture holes to allow reattachment of soft tissue and bone fragments in the case of proximal humeral fracture. A suture hole is also placed medially through the proximal body just below the collar. A collar is present on the anterior, posterior and medial faces of the proximal body to resist stem subsidence. A neck stem angle is incorporated. The stem has a female Morse type taper to receive modular humeral necks. Also present is a female locating scallop utilized to orient the modular humeral neck and provide additional rotational stability of the neck and head. The humeral neck has two male Morse type tapers that differ in size to prevent incorrect installation. The smaller Morse type taper interfaces with the female Morse type taper in the humeral stem, the larger Morse type taper interfaces with the female Morse type taper in the humeral head. A scalloped collar between the two male tapers interfaces with the female locating scallop in the humeral stem to provide orientation when using the angled neck and to provide additional rotational stability of the neck and head The humeral heads are available in standard and offset configurations. In the offset configuration, the male Morse type taper on the humeral heads is offset from the center that makes it possible to orient the head in asymmetric positions on the symmetric stem, thus allowing the surgeon to intraoperatively select the position of the humeral head to recreate the anatomy of the individual patient. The glenoid components are fabricated from ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene. The articulating surface has a radius of curvature greater than the corresponding humeral head. This allows translation in the superior/inferior and anterior/posterior directions. The back surface of the component is spherical in geometry and has either a keel or four pegs for fixation in the glenoid. The central peg has three annular barbs to provide immediate fixation to the patient's glenoid when inserted.

No
The device description focuses solely on the mechanical components and materials of a shoulder replacement system. There is no mention of software, algorithms, data processing, or any terms related to AI/ML.

Yes
The device is a joint replacement system (shoulder arthroplasty), which is a medical intervention intended to restore a physiological function (mobility) and reduce pain for patients with degenerative joint disease, rheumatoid arthritis, or fractures.

No

The device is a shoulder replacement system intended for treatment of patients undergoing shoulder arthroplasty, not for diagnosing conditions.

No

The device description clearly outlines physical components (humeral stem, neck, head, glenoid component) made from materials like ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene, indicating it is a hardware medical device.

Based on the provided information, 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, tissue) to provide information about a person's health. This information is used for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Device Description and Intended Use: The description clearly states that this device is a joint replacement system for the shoulder. It is surgically implanted into the patient's body to replace damaged joints.
  • Lack of Specimen Analysis: There is no mention of this device being used to analyze any biological specimens. Its function is purely mechanical, providing structural support and restoring mobility to the shoulder joint.

Therefore, the Encore Medical shoulder device is a surgical implant, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.
