More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a mechanical implant for joint replacement and does not mention any AI or ML components or functionalities.

Yes
The device is a prosthesis designed to replace the patellofemoral joint, which is a therapeutic intervention for conditions like degenerative arthritis and patellofemoral dislocation.

No

Explanation: The device is a prosthesis intended for joint replacement, which is a therapeutic function, not diagnostic.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "semiconstrained resecting prosthesis" consisting of "two components, both for cemented use only: a femoral implant and a patella." This describes physical hardware components, not software.

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: The KNEETEC PFJ device is a prosthesis intended for the replacement of the patellofemoral joint. This is a surgical implant, not a test performed on a sample.
  • Intended Use: The intended use describes the conditions for which the prosthesis is indicated (degenerative arthritis, failure of conservative procedures, dislocation, post-traumatic arthritis). These are conditions that lead to the need for a physical replacement of the joint, not conditions diagnosed through laboratory testing.

Therefore, the KNEETEC PFJ device is a surgical implant and not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Identification. A knee joint patellofemoral polymer/metal semi-constrained cemented prosthesis is a two-part device intended to be implanted to replace part of a knee joint in the treatment of primary patellofemoral arthritis or chondromalacia. 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 includes a component made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum or austenitic steel, for resurfacing the intercondylar groove (femoral sulcus) on the anterior aspect of the distal femur, and a patellar component made of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene.

11) Non-clinical testing

The following non-clinical testing has been performed on the smallest components of the ranges (worst case):

  • Contact area and trajectories of the patella to compare the congruence of the patella with the । trochlea,
  • Contact pressure test, -
  • Measurement of the subluxation force. r

Results: there is no significant difference between the results for Kneetec PFJ prosthesis and the predicate devices.

The results of engineering studies referenced in this 510(k) submission demonstrate the Kneetec PFJ is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.

12) Substantial equivalence conclusion

Substantial equivalence of the Kneeter PFJ to the already cleared Avon, Journey and HLS Kneeter prostheses can be demonstrated on the following grounds, according to the FDA's Guidelines for Substantial Equivalence Decision Making Process:

  • The components of the Kneetec PFJ have been compared to the predicate devices.
  • The components of the Kneeter PFJ have the same intended use as the Avon and Journey prostheses and very similar indications for use.
  • Major technological characteristics are equivalent between the Kneetec PFJ and the predicate devices: -
    • Equivalence of general features and material, י
    • Equivalence of non-clinical testing results, .
    • -Equivalence of range of motion,
    • Equivalent means of fixation, .
    • Equivalent prosthetic dimensions. -

Therefore, in light of the above information, the company believes that the components of the Kneeter PFJ and the patellar component of the HLS Kneetec may be cleared via the 510(k) notification process for use as a Patellofemoral Knee Prosthesis.
