Intended Use
All Exactech Hip Systems are indicated for use in skeletally mature individuals undergoing primary surgery for hip replacement due to osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, osteonecrosis, post-traumatic degenerative problems of the hip, and for treatment of proximal femoral fractures where prosthetic replacement is determined by the surgeon as the preferred treatment. Components of Exactech Hip Systems are also potentially indicated for ankylosing spondylitis, congenital hip dysplasia, revision of failed previous reconstructions where sufficient bone stock is present, and to restore mobility resulting from previous fusion. Cemented femoral stems and cemented acetabular cups are intended for cemented fixation only. Press-fit femoral stems and acetabular cups are intended for press-fit fixation. Press-fit components without hydroxyapatite (HA) coating may also be used with bone cement at the discretion of the surgeon. Femoral heads and endoprostheses are intended for use in cemented and press-fit applications.
Device Description
The proposed Exactech BIOLOXdelta femoral heads and Biolox Option femoral heads and adapters are modifications to the existing Exactech 12/14 Alumina heads previously cleared in K032964 and K051682. The proposed femoral heads and adapters have the same general design features as the predicate device. The proposed femoral heads are manufactured from an alumina/zirconia based ceramic material known as Delta per ISO 6474-2. The Biolox Option adapters are comprised of titanium alloy per ISO 5832-3 and are intended for use with the Biolox Option femoral heads for primary and revision applications in which the taper remains intact. The proposed femoral heads mate with the following devices: 12/14 Femoral Stems Novation Press-Fit Femoral Stems (K042842) Novation Splined RDD Femoral Stem (K063279) Novation Element Press-Fit Femoral Stem (K080980) Novation Cemented Stems (K052787) Novation Cemented Plus (K083392) AcuMatch Press Fit Stems (K041906, K051335) AcuMatch Cemented Stems (K052787) AcuMatch M-Series (K032964, K051858) Acetabular Liners Novation Crown Cup Standard and GXL UHMWPE Liners (K070479, K100269) Novation Crown Cup Constrained Liners (K071676) AcuMatch A-Series Standard and GXL UHMWPE Liners (K993082, K000242, K040613, K051556) AcuMatch Constrained Liners (K040601) The predicate and proposed devices have the same intended use and basic fundamental scientific technology and share the following similarities: similar indications for use similar design features incorporate similar materials the same shelf life are packaged and sterilized using the same materials and processes
More Information

No
The summary describes a hip replacement system and its components, focusing on materials, design features, and mechanical performance testing. There is no mention of AI or ML technology.

Yes
The device, an Exactech Hip System, is indicated for use in treating various conditions like osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and osteonecrosis, which are diseases or disorders. It also aims to restore mobility, indicating a therapeutic effect.

No
The device is a component of a hip replacement system, indicated for surgical implantation to treat various hip conditions, not for diagnosing them.

No

The device description clearly outlines physical components (femoral heads, adapters, stems, liners) made of materials like ceramic and titanium alloy, and the performance studies involve engineering evaluations of physical properties like strength and fatigue. This indicates a hardware medical device, not a software-only one.

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 device used in vivo (within the body) for surgical hip replacement. IVDs are used in vitro (outside the body) to examine specimens from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Device Description: The device is described as femoral heads and adapters, which are components of a hip implant system. These are physical implants, not reagents, instruments, or software used for testing biological samples.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples, performing tests on bodily fluids or tissues, or providing diagnostic information based on such analysis.

The device is a surgical implant used to replace a damaged hip joint.

§ 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)
Classification. Class II.
