Intended Use
The Ascend Shoulder System consists of a humeral stem, a mating humeral head, and an optional polyethylene glenoid. The stem and head may be used by themselves, as a hemiarthroplasty, if the natural glenoid provides a sufficient bearing surface, or in conjunction with the glenoid, as a total replacement. The Ascend Shoulder System is to be used only in patients with an intact or reconstructable rotator cuff, where it is intended to provide increased mobility and stability and to relieve pain. The Ascend Shoulder System is indicated for use as a replacement of shoulder joints disabled bv: - Rheumatoid arthritis with pain . - Non-inflammatory degenerative joint disease (i.e. osteoarthritis and avascular necrosis) . - Correction of functional deformity ● - Fractures of the humeral head . - Traumatic arthritis . - Revision of other devices if sufficient bone stock remains . All components are single use. The humeral stem is intended for cementless use, while the all polyethylene glenoid is intended for cemented use only.
Device Description
The Ascend Shoulder System consists of a humeral stem Titanium Plasma Spray (Ti PS) coated and un-coated stem versions, a mating humeral head and an optional all polyethylene glenoid. The stem and head may be used alone, as a hemiarthroplasty if the natural glenoid provides a sufficient bearing surface, or in conjunction with the glenoid, as a total shoulder replacement system. The present device submission corresponds to changes made to the version of the device cleared in 510(k) K113413.
More Information

No
The document describes a mechanical implant system for shoulder replacement and does not mention any software, algorithms, or AI/ML capabilities.

Yes
The device is a medical implant designed to replace shoulder joints, indicating it is used for treatment and relief of pain due to various conditions.

No
Explanation: The device is a shoulder replacement system (prosthetic implant) and its purpose is to replace diseased or damaged shoulder joints, not to diagnose medical conditions.

No

The device description clearly states it consists of physical components: a humeral stem, a mating humeral head, and an optional polyethylene glenoid. These are hardware components used in surgical procedures.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the Ascend Shoulder System is a replacement for shoulder joints disabled by various conditions. This is a surgical implant used directly in the body.
  • Device Description: The description details physical components like a humeral stem, humeral head, and glenoid, which are parts of a prosthetic joint.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) outside of the body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.

IVD devices are used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body. The Ascend Shoulder System is a medical device used for surgical implantation to replace a damaged joint.

§ 888.3660 Shoulder joint metal/polymer semi-constrained cemented prosthesis.

(a)
Identification. A shoulder joint metal/polymer semi-constrained cemented prosthesis is a device intended to be implanted to replace a shoulder 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 includes prostheses that have a humeral resurfacing component made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum, and a glenoid resurfacing component made of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene, and is limited to those prostheses intended for use with bone cement (§ 888.3027).(b)
Classification. Class II. The special controls for this device are:(1) FDA's:
(i) “Use of International Standard ISO 10993 ‘Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices—Part I: Evaluation and Testing,’ ”
