This device is indicated for use in total hip arthroplasty or bipolar arthroplasty undergoing primary and revision surgery for the following conditions: - Non-inflammatory degenerative joint disease such as osteoarthritis, avascular necrosis, ankylosis, protrusion acetabuli, and painful hip dysplasia - Inflammatory degenerative joint disease such as rheumatoid arthritis - Correction of functional deformity - Treatment of non-union, femoral neck fracture and trochanteric fractures of the proximal femur with head involvement, unmanageable using other techniques - Revision procedures where other treatments or devices have failed UTF Stem is designed for cementless use.
Device Description
UTF Stem is a modular, wedge-shaped stem with 12/14 neck taper, which is made from forging Ti-6A1-4V alloy conforming to ASTM F 620 and the proximal part of each femoral stem is coated with CP Ti plasma spray. The net-shape of stem was forged by the titanium bar (ASTM F136). Circumferential titanium plasma coating sprayed with CP Ti powder (ASTM F1580) provides biological fixation. This device is collarless to allow for self-seating of the implant between the lateral and medial cortices of the femoral canal. UTF Stem is available with standard offset and high offset options to restore hip biomechanics. Each type of offset is available in 10 sizes ranging. For total hip replacement, UTF Stem can be used in conjunction with UNITED Femoral Head (K994078, K022520 and K111546), U2 Acetabular Cup Liner (K050262), XPE Cup Liner (K111546), U2 HA/Ti Plasma Spray Cup (K050262), U2 Ti Plasma Spray Cup (K050262) and U2 Ti Porous Coated Cup (K111546). As using with the U2 Acetabular Cup Liner (K050262), UTF Stem can be used with 26 mm and 28 mm Femoral Head (K994078 and K022520) and 28 mm ceramic Femoral Head (K103479). As using with XPE Cup Liner (K111546), UTF Stem can be used with 28 mm, 32 mm and 36 mm metal Femoral Head (K022520, K111546), and 28 mm and 32 mm Ceramic Femoral Head (K103479).

More Information

No
The device description focuses on the material, design, and mechanical properties of a physical implant (femoral stem) and its components. There is no mention of software, algorithms, data processing, or any terms related to AI or ML. The performance studies are bench tests evaluating the physical integrity of the implant.

Yes
The device is indicated for use in total hip arthroplasty for various degenerative joint diseases and functional deformities, clearly indicating its role in treating medical conditions.

No

This device is a prosthetic implant for hip replacement surgery, falling under the category of therapeutic devices. It is used to correct physical conditions, not to diagnose them.

No

The device description clearly details a physical implant (UTF Stem) made of Ti-6A1-4V alloy, designed for surgical implantation in the hip. It also mentions other physical components like femoral heads and acetabular cups. This is not a software-only device.

No, 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: The provided text describes a femoral stem, which is an implant used in hip replacement surgery. It is a physical device implanted into the body.
  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it is for surgical procedures (total hip arthroplasty or bipolar arthroplasty) to treat conditions affecting the hip joint. This is an in-vivo application, not an in-vitro test.

The information provided describes a medical device used within the body for surgical treatment, not a test performed outside the body on a sample.

§ 888.3358 Hip joint metal/polymer/metal semi-constrained porous-coated uncemented prosthesis.

(a)
Identification. A hip joint metal/polymer/metal semi-constrained porous-coated uncemented prosthesis is a device intended to be implanted to replace a hip joint. The device limits translation and rotation in one or more planes via the geometry of its articulating surfaces. It has no linkage across the joint. This generic type of device has a femoral component made of a cobalt-chromium-molybdenum (Co-Cr-Mo) alloy or a titanium-aluminum-vanadium (Ti-6Al-4V) alloy and an acetabular component composed of an ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene articulating bearing surface fixed in a metal shell made of Co-Cr-Mo or Ti-6Al-4V. The femoral stem and acetabular shell have a porous coating made of, in the case of Co-Cr-Mo substrates, beads of the same alloy, and in the case of Ti-6Al-4V substrates, fibers of commercially pure titanium or Ti-6Al-4V alloy. The porous coating has a volume porosity between 30 and 70 percent, an average pore size between 100 and 1,000 microns, interconnecting porosity, and a porous coating thickness between 500 and 1,500 microns. The generic type of device has a design to achieve biological fixation to bone without the use of bone cement.(b)
Classification. Class II.
