No
The device description and performance studies focus on the mechanical properties and materials of the femoral heads, with no mention of AI or ML.
Yes
The device is a component of a hip replacement system, indicated for treating conditions like arthritis, hip dysplasia, and avascular necrosis, which directly alleviate pain and restore function in affected patients.
No
The device is a femoral head intended for mechanical fixation in total or partial hip arthroplasty, which is a therapeutic treatment. It does not perform any diagnostic function.
No
The device description clearly details physical components made of titanium alloy and ceramic, indicating it is a hardware medical device, not software-only.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the device is for "mechanical fixation to a mating hip stem" and is indicated for the "treatment of patients who are candidates for total or partial hip arthroplasty". This describes a surgical implant used in vivo (within the body) for structural support and joint replacement.
- Device Description: The description details the materials and components of a physical implant (femoral head and sleeve) designed to be surgically implanted.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue, etc.) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or compatibility testing.
IVD devices are used in vitro (outside the body) to analyze biological samples. This device is a surgical implant used in vivo.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
The MectaCer BIOLOX® OPTION femoral heads are intended for mechanical fixation to a mating hip stem and indicated for treatment of patients who are candidates for total or partial hip arthroplasty in primary or revision surgery. The patient should be skeletally mature.
The patient's condition should be due to one or more of the following:
- · Severely painful and/or disabled joint as a result of osteoarthritis, post-
- traumatic arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, or psoriatic arthritis,
- · Congenital hip dysplasia,
- · Ankylosing spondylitis,
- · Avascular necrosis of the femoral head,
- · Acute traumatic fracture of the femoral head or neck,
· Failure of previous hip surgery: joint reconstruction, internal fixation, arthrodesis, hemiarthroplasty, surface replacement arthroplasty or total hip replacement where sufficient bone stock is present.

Device Description
The Mectacer Biolox Option Heads consist of a metal sleeve made of titanium alloy Ti-6AI4V according to ISO 5832-3 and ASTM F136 in neck lengths of S, M, L, and XL with an inner 12/14 taper and a MectaCer BIOLOX® OPTION ceramic femoral head (made of BIOLOX® delta ceramic) with head diameters of 28, 32, 36, 40, and 44mm with a conical bore which matches with the external taper of the sleeve. The MectaCer BIOLOX® OPTION femoral heads are made of high-purity aluminium oxide Al2 03-ZrO2 ceramic compound according to ISO 6474-2. The pink color is due to the chromium oxide (Cr2O3) that improves the hardness of the composite material.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
The Mectacer Biolox Option Heads were tested for fretting corrosion of the metallic sleeve and the tapers of the femoral stems. These tests were conducted on Ti6Al7Nb (ISO 5832-11) femoral stems. In addition, the Mectacer Biolox Option Heads were tested for burst strength, fatique, post-fatique, pull-off and rotational stability. A review of the mechanical data indicates that the MectaCer Biolox Delta Heads are equivalent to devices currently cleared for use and are capable of withstanding expected in vivo loading without failure.

§ 888.3353 Hip joint metal/ceramic/polymer semi-constrained cemented or nonporous uncemented prosthesis.
(a)
Identification. A hip joint metal/ceramic/polymer semi-constrained cemented or nonporous uncemented prosthesis is a device intended to be implanted to replace a hip joint. This device limits translation and rotation in one or more planes via the geometry of its articulating surfaces. It has no linkage across-the-joint. The two-part femoral component consists of a femoral stem made of alloys to be fixed in the intramedullary canal of the femur by impaction with or without use of bone cement. The proximal end of the femoral stem is tapered with a surface that ensures positive locking with the spherical ceramic (aluminium oxide, A12 03 ) head of the femoral component. The acetabular component is made of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene or ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene reinforced with nonporous metal alloys, and used with or without bone cement.(b)
Classification. Class II.
