Intended Use
The Journey Unicondylar Knee System is indicated for restoring either compartment of a knee that has been affected by the following: - 1. Noninflammatory degenerative joint disease including osteoarthritis, traumatic arthritis, or avascular necrosis; - Correction of functional deformity; 2. - ల్లా Revision procedures where other treatments or devices have failed; and - 4. Treatment of fractures that are unmanageable using other techniques. The Journey Unicondylar Knee System components are single use only and are intended for implantation only with bone cement.
Device Description
The devices, subject of this Premarket Notification, are the Smith & Nephew, Inc. Journey Unicondylar Femoral Implant components. The Journey unicondylar femoral implants are intended for cemented medial and lateral tibiofemoral replacement. The femoral implants will be offered in both Cobalt Chrome and Oxidized Zirconium alloy (OXINIUM) materials in sizes 1 through 7. The Smith & Nephew Journey Unicondylar femoral components feature the same articular surface geometry as existing femoral implants cleared in K073175. The Journey Unicondylar femoral components are intended to be used in combination with the Competitor Unicondvlar All-Poly Tibial Baseplates IK061779), or the Competitor Unicondylar Knee Tibial Baseplates and Polyethylene Inserts {K061011}.
More Information

No
The document describes a mechanical knee implant system and does not mention any software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate the use of AI or ML.

Yes
The device is a knee system indicated for restoring compartments of a knee affected by various conditions like degenerative joint disease, traumatic arthritis, avascular necrosis, and for revision procedures or treatment of fractures, which falls under the definition of a therapeutic device.

No

The device is a knee implant system used for restoring a compartment of a knee. Its indications for use are related to treatment (e.g., noninflammatory degenerative joint disease, correction of functional deformity, revision procedures, treatment of fractures), not diagnosis.

No

The device description clearly states that the device is a physical implant component made of Cobalt Chrome and Oxidized Zirconium alloy, intended for surgical implantation. It is a hardware device, not software.

Based on the provided text, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes a surgical implant for restoring a knee joint affected by various conditions. This is a therapeutic device, not a diagnostic one.
  • Device Description: The description details femoral implant components made of metal alloys, designed for surgical implantation. This aligns with a medical device for treatment, not a diagnostic test.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Elements: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), detecting biomarkers, or providing information for diagnosis.

IVD devices are used to examine specimens from the human body to provide information for the diagnosis, prevention, or treatment of a disease or condition. This device is a physical implant used to treat a condition directly.

§ 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)
Classification. Class II.
