The description focuses on the material composition and physical function of the implant, with no mention of AI or ML for analysis, diagnosis, or treatment.
Yes
The device is described as an implant used for vocal fold medialization and insufficiency, with the explicit purpose of improving phonation and addressing aspiration difficulties, which directly relates to treating a medical condition.
No
The device is an implant used for vocal fold augmentation to treat vocal fold insufficiency, which is a therapeutic rather than a diagnostic function.
No
The device description clearly states it is a physical implant comprised of calcium hydroxylapatite particles in a gel, intended for injection. This is a hardware device, not software.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is for vocal fold medialization and vocal fold insufficiency by injecting a soft tissue-bulking agent directly into the vocal fold. This is a therapeutic procedure performed on the patient's body.
- Device Description: The device is an implantable material (calcium hydroxylapatite) delivered via an aqueous gel carrier. It is designed to augment tissue within the body.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: An IVD is a medical device intended for use in vitro for the examination of specimens derived from the human body in order to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring or compatibility purposes. This device does not involve the examination of specimens outside the body.
Therefore, this device is a therapeutic implant, not an in vitro diagnostic device.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
Calcium Hydroxylapatite Vocal Fold Implant is indicated for vocal fold medialization and vocal fold insufficiency that may be improved by injection of a soft tissue-bulking agent. Calcium Hydroxylapatite Vocal Fold Implant injection augments the size of the displaced or deformed vocal fold so that it may meet the opposing fold at the midline for improved phonation. Vocal fold insufficiency associated with serious aspiration difficulties may be an urgent indication.

Device Description
Calcium Hydroxylapatite Vocal Fold Implant is a ready to use product. Calcium Hydroxylapatite Vocal Fold Implant is comprised of calcium hydroxylapatite particles, blended into an aqueous gel formulated from sodium carboxymethyicellulose, glycerin, and a phosphate buffer. The gel acts as a carrier for the particles to facilitate placement. The main component of Calcium Hydroxylapatite Vocal Fold Implant is synthetic calcium hydroxylapatite, a material with over thirty years of use as an implant material used in orthopedics, neurosurgery, dentistry, otolaryngology, plastic surgery and ophthalmology. Calcium hydroxylapatite is also the main mineral component found in bones and teeth so it is a major component of the body. The calcium hydroxylapatite meets the requirements of ASTM F1185. The carrier consists of glycerin (USP) sodium carboxymethylcellulose (USP) and phosphate buffer (USP). The carrier resorbs in vivo, so that the calcium hydroxylapatite remains at the site of implantation, providing a scaffold for local tissue infiltration. This cellular infiltrated hydroxylapatite scaffold provides the longterm restoration and augmentation.

- Summary of the technological characteristics of your device compared to the 5.12. predicate device. [807.92(a){6)]
Calcium Hydroxylapatite Vocal Fold Implant is a paste of calcium hydroxylapatite (calcium phosphate) particles in a gel carrier, identical to the predicate K070090 (Radiesse Laryngeal Implant)). The gel carrier is resorbable and acts to hold the particles together to facilitate placement. The resorption of the carrier provides the porosity for bone ingrowth. These "pores" are the interconnected pathways around and between the calcium hydroxylapatite particles. The calcium hydroxylapatite particles provide a non-resorbable scaffold for tissue infiltration. This is the same mechanism of action as the predicate device. The premixed and ready to use characteristic facilitates the delivery of Calcium Hydroxylapatite Vocal Fold Implant by allowing direct and controlled placement using the syringe. This may be enhanced for implantation in difficult to access locations by the use of a needle on the syringe. In addition, the carrier serves to reduce or prevent migration during the application and in the postoperative healing period prior to incorporation of the particles by tissue ingrowth. The implantation procedures for both the Calcium Hydroxylapatite Vocal Fold Implant and the predicate use direct injection to the laryngeal augmentation site with direct visualization via nasopharyngoscope and without the requirement for an open surgical procedure.
The Calcium Hydroxylapatite Vocal Fold Implant is identically and physically to the predicate and has the identical intended use as the predicate device. The Calcium Hydroxylapatite Vocal Fold Implant and the predicate device are both intended to augment the size of the displaced or deformed vocal fold. The predicate device and the Calcium Hydroxylapatite Vocal Fold Implant are composites of resorbable (carrier) and non-resorbable (calcium phosphate particles) components. The tissue infiltration provides the final form of the implant.
The principle component of the Calcium Hydroxylapatite Vocal Fold Implant, calcium hydroxylapatite, is identical to the calcium hydroxylapatite chemically and in size, 25 to 45 microns, to the calcium hydroxylapatite used in the predicate. Calcium hydroxylapatite used in Calcium Hydroxylapatite Vocal Fold Implant and the predicate meet the same biocompatibility requirements. Calcium Hydroxylapatite Vocal Fold Implant and predicate are substantially equivalent in terms of biocompatibility and biological mechanism of action in that both of the products utilize tissue ingrowth to support and sustain augmentation.

The battery of preclinical safety studies and animal implant studies show that the Calcium Hydroxylapatite Vocal Fold Implant is biocompatible when injected into soft tissues.
5.14. Sterilization
Calcium Hydroxylapatite Vocal Fold Implant will be sterilized using steam in accordance with ISO 17665. A contract sterilization company, Biotest Laboratories, will perform processing. Cycle parameters are validated using an overkill methodology to 10th SAL. Sterilization by the user is not required.
Pre-Clinical Tests Performed 5.15.
In vivo and in vitro tests were performed for biocompatibility. Results identified the Calcium Hydroxylapatite Vocal Fold Implant as a nonirritant, nontoxic, with no concerns for long-term safety.
5.16. Risk Assessment
The primary risks with Calcium Hydroxylapatite Vocal Fold Implant have been identified through a risk assessment procedure in accordance with ISO 14971. The risks identified are primarily associated with nasopharyngoscopy and injection laryngoplasty surgery.
5.17. Summary
The Calcium Hydroxylapatite Vocal Fold Implant is a safe and effective implant when used as a space filling material for soft tissue augmentation in laryngeal procedures for vocal fold medialization and augmentation.
5.18. Conclusion
In summary, Calcium Hydroxylapatite Vocal Fold Implant is substantially equivalent to the cited predicate device K070090 (Radiesse Laryngeal Implant). The predicate has the same intended use, augment the size of the vocal folds. The components used in the Calcium Hydroxylapatite Vocal Fold Implant and the predicate device are the same and the biocompatibility is equivalent, based on the history use in many medical devices as well as from preclinical testing and the very extensive clinical utilization of this formulation. The predicate and the device both function as a composite that utilizes a resorbable carrier and a non-resorbable calcium phosphate particulate. The carrier facilitates placement and the particles function as a tissue integration matrix. Both attain their final form after tissue infiltration. Both are used with the same implantation placement procedures. Therefore, the Calcium Hydroxylapatite Vocal Fold Implant is substantially equivalent in intended use, technical characteristics and is as safe as the predicate device cited.
