The summary describes a modular hip reconstruction prosthesis made of standard medical-grade materials. There is no mention of software, algorithms, or any technology that would suggest the use of AI or ML. The performance studies are based on mechanical testing of the physical components.
Yes.
The device is a reconstruction prosthesis intended to treat various conditions of the hip, such as bone defects, loosened prosthesis components, and deformities, which falls under the definition of a therapeutic device.
No
Explanation: The device described is a reconstruction prosthesis, intended for revision hip arthroplasty to replace damaged or insufficient bone stock. It is a treatment device, not a diagnostic one.
No
The device description clearly outlines physical components made of metal alloys (Titanium Aluminum Vanadium alloy and Cobalt Chromium Molybdenum casting alloy), 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 describes a surgical implant for hip reconstruction. It is used in vivo (within the body) to replace or augment bone structure.
- Device Description: The description details the physical components of a hip prosthesis (heads, stems, neck segments, etc.) made of materials suitable for implantation.
- 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) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment.
IVD devices are used outside the body to analyze biological samples. This device is a surgical implant used inside the body.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The LINK® MP® Reconstruction Prosthesis is intended for revision hip arthroplasty in patients whose bone stock is of poor quality or inadequate for other reconstruction techniques as indicated by deficiencies of the femoral head, neck, or portions of the proximal femur. The LINK® MP® Reconstruction Hip Prosthesis is indicated for the following conditions:
-
Revision arthroplasty due to juxta-articular bone defects.
-
Revision of loosened femoral prosthesis components involving extensive bone resorption of the proximal femur and widening of the medullary cavity or marked thinning of proximal femoral cortical bone.
-
Revision of loosened femoral prosthesis components by peri- / subprosthetic fracture.
-
- Deformed proximal femur due to fractures or osteotomies.
-
- Correction of bone deficiencies, e.g. due to tumors.
-
- Large post-revision and post-trauma segmental bone defects.
The LINK® MP® Reconstruction Prosthesis is for cementless use only.

Device Description
The LINK® MP® Reconstruction Prosthesis modular system consists of Prosthesis Heads, Stems, Neck Segments, Proximal Spacers, and Expansion Bolts. The modular components are interchangeable allowing for independent positioning. The Prosthesis Stems are available in a variety of diameters and lengths. Neck Segments are available in a variety of CCD angles and sizes. Proximal Spacers are available in a variety of heights and can be used independently or combined to add leg length. Expansion Bolts are used to secure the Neck Segments and Proximal Spacers, when used, to the modular Prosthesis Stems. Additional features include a tapered stem with a microporous surface. The Prosthesis Stems also include longitudinal fluting.
The MP® Reconstruction Prosthesis Stems (cementless) and Neck Segments are produced of Titanium Aluminum Vanadium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V). Proximal Spacers and Expansion Bolts are made of Cobalt Chromium Molybdenum casting alloy (CoCrMo) materials.

§ 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.

Comparison to Predicate Device: The subject device has the same intended use as the predicate and uses materials identical to those used in the predicate. The design of the subject and predicate devices has the same technological characteristics except: the subject device Neck Segments are made of Ti-6Al-4V instead of CoCrMo; additional Prosthesis Stem and Neck Segment sizes and configurations have been introduced; and a hex head Expansion Bolt is used in place of the predicates Slot Head Fixation Screw.
The performance testing is sufficient to demonstrate that the subject and predicate devices are substantially equivalent with regard to design. Any difference between the subject and predicate device does not change the intended use or fundamental scientific technology.
