Intended Use
The Pipeline Total Hip System is indicated for use in skeletally mature individuals undergoing surgery for total hip replacement due to: - A severely painful and/or disabled joint from osteoarthritis, traumatic arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, avascular necrosis, or congenital hip dysplasia. - Acute traumatic fracture of the femoral head or neck. - Failed previous hip surgery including joint reconstruction, internal fixation, arthrodesis, hemiarthroplasty, surface replacement arthroplasty or total hip replacement. The Tapered Hip Stem and PST™ Acetabular Shell are intended for cementless or cemented fixation. The porous structured (PST™) surface provides biological fixation when used in a cementless application. The Pipeline Total Hip System HA porous structured acetabular shells are intended for cementless fixation. The HA porous structured surface provides biological fixation.
Device Description
This 510(k) addresses the addition of the following components (already cleared under 510(k) #K122158) to the Pipeline Total Hip System: - . HA-coated Acetabular Shells feature a thin HA coating applied over the porous structured (PST) shells in a range of sizes, - . Biolox® delta Ceramic Femoral Heads available in a range of diameters and extension options, - . 40mm CoCr Femoral Heads, and - . 40mm inner diameter Highly Crosslinked Vitamin E UHMWPE Acetabular Liners. These components are compatible with the total hip system determined substantially equivalent as the Pipeline Total Hip System in 510(k) #K112802 and as the PBP Total Hip System in 510(k) #K122158.
More Information

No
The document describes a total hip replacement system and its components, with no mention of AI or ML technology in the intended use, device description, or any other section.

Yes
The device is a total hip replacement system, which is used to alleviate pain and disability in patients with severe joint conditions, fulfilling the criteria of a therapeutic device.

No
The device is a total hip replacement system, indicated for surgical use to replace damaged hip joints, not to diagnose medical conditions.

No

The device description explicitly lists physical components (HA-coated Acetabular Shells, Ceramic Femoral Heads, CoCr Femoral Heads, UHMWPE Acetabular Liners) which are hardware, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes a surgical implant for total hip replacement. This is a device used in vivo (within the body) to replace a joint, not a device used in vitro (outside the body) to examine specimens from the body.
  • Device Description: The description details components of a hip implant (femoral heads, acetabular shells, liners). These are physical components designed for surgical implantation.
  • Lack of IVD characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), diagnostic testing, or providing information about a patient's health status based on laboratory analysis.

Therefore, this device falls under the category of a surgical implant, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

§ 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.
