No
The device description and performance studies focus on the material composition and biological properties of the bone void filler, with no mention of AI or ML technologies.
Yes
The device is indicated for filling bony voids or gaps resulting from surgical or traumatic injury, and it resorbs and is replaced by bone during the healing process, which directly addresses a health condition or alters the structure or function of the body.
No
This device is a bone void filler used for treatment, not for diagnosing conditions.
No
The device description clearly states it is a physical bone void filler composed of bioactive glass particles and a carrier, which are physical components, 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 to fill bony voids or gaps in the skeletal system. This is a therapeutic or reconstructive purpose, not a diagnostic one.
- Device Description: The device is a bone void filler composed of bioactive glass and a carrier. It is designed to be implanted into the body to aid in bone regeneration. This is an implantable medical device, not a diagnostic test performed on samples outside the body.
- Lack of Diagnostic Elements: There is no mention of analyzing samples from the body (like blood, urine, tissue, etc.) to provide diagnostic information. The device itself is the treatment/filler.
IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. BioSphere Putty does not fit this description.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
BioSphere Putty is indicated only for bony voids or gaps that are not intrinsic to the stability of the bony structure. BioSphere Putty is indicated to be gently packed into bony voids or gaps of the skeletal system (i.e. the extremities and pelvis). These defects may be surgically created osseous defects or osseous defects created from traumatic injury to the bone. The product provides a bone void filler that resorbs and is replaced with bone during the healing process.

Device Description
BioSphere Putty is an osteoconductive, bioactive bone void filler that, like its predicate device (NovaBone), is composed of 4555 bioactive glass particles. In BioSphere Putty, the bioactive glass is mixed with an inert, moldable carrier that aids in placement of the product into bony voids. Upon implantation, the carrier is absorbed by the site and the remaining bioactive glass particles provide an osteoconductive surface for bone formation. The bioactive glass particles are provided in a spherical form, and the natural packing of the spheres creates 3-dimensional, interconnected porosity that allows for bone regeneration throughout the defect site.

Summary of Performance Studies
The primary component of BioSphere Putty is medical grade 4555 bioactive glass which complies with the requirements of ASTM F-1538. Testing of the device in accordance with ISO 10993 Biological Evaluation of Medical Device demonstrated that the materials are biocompatible. Comparative testing using XRF, particle size analysis, and ion dissolution showed that the bioactive glass component was identical to the predicate device. In vitro bioactivity testing of the Putty showed that the bioactive glass particles were capable of forming a calcium phosphate layer when incubated in simulated body fluid. Additionally, performance of the device in a clinically relevant animal model showed bone formation similar to the predicate device. These results have not been correlated to clinical performance.

Performance Data 7.
The primary component of BioSphere Putty is medical grade 4555 bioactive glass which complies with the requirements of ASTM F-1538. Testing of the device in accordance with ISO 10993 Biological Evaluation of Medical Device demonstrated that the materials are biocompatible. Comparative testing using XRF, particle size analysis, and ion dissolution showed that the bioactive glass component was identical to the predicate device. In vitro bioactivity testing of the Putty showed that the bioactive glass particles were capable of forming a calcium phosphate layer when incubated in simulated body fluid. Additionally, performance of the device in a clinically relevant animal model showed bone formation similar to the predicate device. These results have not been correlated to clinical performance.
Substantial Equivalence 8.
BioSphere Putty is as safe and effective as the predicate devices. BioSphere Putty has the same intended uses and similar indications, technological characteristics, and principles of operation as its predicate device. The minor technological difference between BioSphere Putty and its predicate devices, the use of a spherical particles and the inclusion of an inert, moldable carrier, raises no new issues of safety or effectiveness. Performance data demonstrate that BioSphere Putty is as safe and effective as the predicates. Thus, BioSphere Putty is substantially equivalent.
