Intended Use

The Libertas™ Hip Replacement System is intended for use in total hip arthroplasty. Total hip arthroplasty is intended to provide patient mobility and reduce pain by replacing the damaged hip joint articulation in patients where there is evidence of sufficient sound bone to fix and support the components.

Total hip replacement is indicated for the following conditions:

  • Non-inflammatory degenerative joint diseases including osteoarthritis and avascular necrosis.
  • Rheumatoid arthritis.
  • Congenital hip dysplasia.
  • Acute traumatic fracture of the femoral head or neck.
  • Certain cases of Ankylosis.
  • Dislocation of the hip.
  • Correction of functional deformity.
  • Revision of failed joint reconstruction or treatment.
  • Treatment of nonunion, femoral neck and trochanteric fractures of the proximal femur.

NOTE:

  • The Modular Shell and Uncemented Stem are intended for press-fit, uncemented use only.
  • The Cemented stem is intended for cemented use only.

AI/ML Overview

This document describes the Libertas™ Hip Replacement System, a medical device for total hip arthroplasty, and its substantial equivalence to predicate devices. It does not contain information about a study proving the device meets acceptance criteria or detailed performance data in the format requested.

Therefore, I cannot provide the requested table of acceptance criteria and device performance, nor the details regarding sample sizes, ground truth establishment, expert qualifications, adjudication methods, multi-reader multi-case studies, or standalone algorithm performance.

The document primarily focuses on establishing substantial equivalence through non-clinical performance testing and similarity to predicate devices, rather than a clinical study with detailed acceptance criteria and performance metrics.

Dear Ms. Rhodes:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database located at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's

{1}------------------------------------------------

requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803) for devices or postmarketing safety reporting (21 CFR 4, Subpart B) for combination products (see https://www.fda.gov/CombinationProducts/GuidanceRegulatoryInformation/ucm597488.htm); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (OS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820) for devices or current good manufacturing practices (21 CFR 4, Subpart A) for combination products; and, if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.

Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR Part 807.97).

§ 888.3350 Hip joint metal/polymer semi-constrained cemented prosthesis.

(a)
Identification. A hip joint metal/polymer semi-constrained cemented 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 includes prostheses that have a femoral component made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum, and an acetabular resurfacing component made of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene and is limited to those prostheses intended for use with bone cement (§ 888.3027).(b)
Classification. Class II.
