Intended Use
All Exactech Hip Systems are indicated for use in skeletally mature individuals undergoing primary surgery for hip replacement due to osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, osteonecrosis, post-traumatic degenerative problems of the hip, and for treatment of proximal femoral fractures where prosthetic replacement is determined by the surgeon as the preferred treatment. Components of Exactech Hip Systems are also potentially indicated for ankylosing spondylitis, congenital hip dysplasia, revision of failed previous reconstructions where sufficient bone stock is present, and to restore mobility resulting from previous fusion. - Cemented femoral stems and cemented acetabular cups are intended for cemented fixation only. - Press-fit femoral stems and acetabular cups are intended for press-fit fixation. - Femoral heads and endoprostheses are intended for use in cemented and press-fit applications.
Device Description
Exactech Tapered Wedge Femoral Stem is a collarless, press-fit prosthesis featuring a 12/14 trunnion that is used on the femur side of a total or hemi hip arthroplasty. The overall design goal of the Exactech Tapered Wedge Femoral Stem is to emphasize medial/lateral fixation of the device and axial/rotational stability when implanted in the femoral/medullary canal. Manufactured from titanium alloy, the subject stem is available in 17 sizes with two lateral offsets offered for each size and two surface finish options (commercially pure titanium, and hydroxylapatite over commercially pure titanium) for the press-fit region of the device. Together, there are 68 total femoral stem configurations available to accommodate patients' various anatomical needs. Regardless of configuration, all Tapered Wedge Femoral Stems feature a polished neck region and bead blast (satin) surface finish on the distal region of the femoral stem. Exactech Tapered Wedge Femoral Stems are intended for press-fit applications. With respect to devicecompatibility with other Exactech manufactured products, Tapered Wedge Femoral Stem is designed to be used with the following 12/14 femoral heads and AcuMatch bipolar components. The proposed femoral stems are intended to mate with the following modular 12/14 femoral heads: - Exactech Cobalt Chromium Alloy Femoral Heads (K041906, K121392) - Exactech Ziramic Zirconia Femoral Heads (K050398, K060107) - Exactech BIOLOX® forte Alumina Femoral Heads (K032964, K051682) - Exactech BioloxDelta and BioloxOption Femoral Heads and Adapters (K103012, K121392) - Exactech AcuMatch L-series Unipolar endoprosthesis (K010081) The proposed femoral stems are intended to mate with the following bipolar components: - Exactech AcuMatch L-Series Bipolar Endoprosthesis (K013211) The Exactech Tapered Wedge Femoral Stem is accompanied by a complete instrumentation set including trial and broach/rasp system to assist surgeons in implantation of the device.
More Information

Not Found

No
The 510(k) summary describes a traditional hip implant device and its associated instrumentation. There is no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or any other technology typically associated with AI/ML applications in medical devices. The performance studies are standard mechanical and biocompatibility tests for implants.

Yes
The device is a component of a hip replacement system, indicated for conditions like osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis, which are used to treat and alleviate these medical conditions.

No

This device is a hip implant (femoral stem) used for hip replacement surgery due to various conditions like osteoarthritis or fractures. It is a prosthetic device for treatment, not for diagnosing medical conditions.

No

The device description clearly describes a physical implant (femoral stem) made of titanium alloy, available in various sizes and configurations, intended for surgical implantation. It also mentions accompanying instrumentation. This 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 describes a device for surgical implantation in the human body to replace a hip joint. This is a therapeutic and structural purpose, not a diagnostic one.
  • Device Description: The description details a physical implant (femoral stem) and associated components for surgical use. It does not mention any reagents, calibrators, or other materials used to test samples from the human body.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Function: The device's function is to provide structural support and restore mobility to the hip joint. It does not analyze biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.) to provide diagnostic information about a patient's health status.
  • Performance Studies: The performance studies focus on the mechanical properties, fatigue strength, and biocompatibility of the implant, which are relevant to a surgically implanted device, not an IVD.

IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This device does not fit that description.

§ 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.
