The summary describes a traditional knee replacement system with mechanical components and does not mention any software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate the use of AI/ML.
Yes.
The device is indicated for use in individuals undergoing surgery for painful and disabling joint disease of the knee, including degenerative, rheumatoid, and post-traumatic arthritis, which are conditions that benefit from therapeutic intervention.
No
Explanation: The device is an orthopedic implant system (Total Knee Arthroplasty System) used for surgical replacement of the knee joint in individuals with severe knee conditions. Its intended use is therapeutic, specifically to replace the knee joint, rather than to diagnose a condition.
No
The device description clearly states it consists of physical components like femoral components, tibial tray, tibial bearing components, and patellar components, made from materials like cobalt-chromium alloy, titanium alloy, and UHMWPE. This indicates it is a hardware device, not software-only.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use/Indications for Use: The intended use clearly describes a surgical implant for treating painful and disabling joint disease of the knee. This is a therapeutic intervention performed directly on the patient's body.
- Device Description: The device description details components of a knee replacement system (femoral components, tibial tray, tibial bearing components, patellar components) made from materials like cobalt-chromium alloy, titanium alloy, and UHMWPE. These are all materials used for surgical implants.
- Anatomical Site: The anatomical site is the knee, which is a part of the human body where a surgical procedure is performed.
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics (IVDs) are medical devices used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to provide information about a person's health. This device does not perform any such tests on samples.
The Arthrex iBalance® TKA System is a surgical implant used for total knee arthroplasty (knee replacement surgery).

All components are available in a range of sizes to fit varying anatomical requirements. Femoral components and tibial bearing components are available in both posteriorly stabilized (PS) and cruciate retaining (CR) configurations. Femoral components are available in left and right versions, as well as cemented and uncemented (biological fixation) versions and are designed to work with the Arthrex dome patella components. Femoral and tibial tray components are manufactured from either cobalt-chromium alloy conforming to ASTM F75 or titanium alloy conforming to ASTM F136. Tibial bearing and patellar components are manufactured from UHMWPE conforming to ASTM F648.
The Arthrex iBalance® Modular Tibial Tray line extension offers the option of using stem extensions and/or tibial augments in a tray manufactured from titanium alloy. The Arthrex iBalance® Modular Tibial Tray would have two additional larger sizes—coming in sizes 1-10 rather than the size 1-8 range of the predicate. Two additional larger sized tibial bearing components and femoral components, size 9 & size 10, are also being offered.

§ 888.3565 Knee joint patellofemorotibial metal/polymer porous-coated uncemented prosthesis.
(a)
Identification. A knee joint patellofemorotibial metal/polymer porous-coated uncemented prosthesis is a device intended to be implanted to replace a knee 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 is designed to achieve biological fixation to bone without the use of bone cement. This identification includes fixed-bearing knee prostheses where the ultra high molecular weight polyethylene tibial bearing is rigidly secured to the metal tibial base plate.(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). The special control is FDA's guidance: “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Knee Joint Patellofemorotibial and Femorotibial Metal/Polymer Porous-Coated Uncemented Prostheses; Guidance for Industry and FDA.” See § 888.1 for the availability of this guidance.
