Intended Use
Orthopedic surgical instrumentation supplied by Cartiva, Inc. is indicated for use in the press-fit fixation of the implantable medical device products manufactured by Cartiva, Inc.
Device Description
Orthopedic surgical instruments designed for osteochondral implants with press-fit fixation are hand-held devices intended to manipulate bone and cartilage tissue or the implant for the positioning, alignment, defect creation, and placement of press-fit osteochondral implants that utilize no additional means of fixation (e.g., suture fixation, adhesives). This type of device includes instruments specific to the geometry of the implant.

No
The description focuses on mechanical surgical instruments and their performance testing, with no mention of AI or ML capabilities.

No
The device is described as "Orthopedic surgical instrumentation" intended for "press-fit fixation of the implantable medical device products". It manipulates bone and cartilage tissue or the implant for positioning, alignment, defect creation, and placement. This indicates it is a surgical tool, not a device that directly treats or cures a condition.

No

Explanation: The device description clearly states it is for "manipulate bone and cartilage tissue or the implant for the positioning, alignment, defect creation, and placement of press-fit osteochondral implants." This describes surgical instrumentation for intervention, not diagnosis.

No

The device description explicitly states it is "hand-held devices intended to manipulate bone and cartilage tissue or the implant," indicating a physical, hardware-based medical device. The performance studies also focus on biocompatibility, sterility, shelf life, and functional testing of physical instruments.

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 is for "press-fit fixation of the implantable medical device products manufactured by Cartiva, Inc." This describes a surgical procedure involving the placement of an implant, not a diagnostic test performed on samples from the body.
  • Device Description: The description details "hand-held devices intended to manipulate bone and cartilage tissue or the implant" for surgical purposes. This aligns with surgical instrumentation, not diagnostic equipment.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The document does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
    • Analyzing samples from the human body (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
    • Providing information about a patient's health status, disease, or condition
    • Using reagents or other substances to perform a test
  • Predicate Device: The predicate device is listed as "Cartiva SCI Instrumentation (Product Code QBO, Regulation Number 21 CFR 888.4505)". Regulation Number 21 CFR 888.4505 is for "Osteochondral allograft", which is related to orthopedic implants and surgical procedures, not IVDs.

In summary, the device is clearly described as surgical instrumentation used in an orthopedic procedure, not a diagnostic test performed in vitro.

  • The Cartiva SCI Disposable Instrumentation Sets are terminally ● sterilized via Gamma radiation.
  • . Sterilization validation methodology per ISO 11137 and ISO 11737, Method VDmax25.
  • Sterility Assurance Level is 10-6. ●
  • Non-pyrogenic claims for the Cartiva SCI Disposable ● Instrumentation Sets were verified through ISO Materials Mediated Rabbit Pyrogen testing.
  • . Shelf-Life testing was established as 5 years through accelerated aging per ASTM F 1980. Realtime testing is ongoing to assure stability.

Performance/Functional Testing

  • Simulated Use Testing of aged product in beyond use ● conditions to demonstrate functionality.
  • Ship studies per ASTM D4169. .

All data demonstrated that the safety and performance of the Cartiva SCI Instrumentation is not affected by the modification to allow for disposable, single-use instrumentation.

A Clinical Evaluation was determined not to be required as the device design, intended use and indication for use are all preserved.

This modification falls within the FDA regulations for 510(k) review. The indication for use, intended use, principles of operation, and performance have not been altered. The minor change in technological characteristics (material) of the next-generation disposable instrumentation do not raise any new questions of safety or effectiveness and the single use set has been demonstrated to provide the same level of performance as the predicate reusable device. The Cartiva SCI Disposable Instrumentation Set with next-generation instrumentation is substantially equivalent to the predicate device (Cartiva SCI Instrumentation, Product Code QBO, Regulation Number 21 CFR 888.4505).

The Cartiva SCI next-qeneration disposable instrumentation, as modified by this 510(k), do not raise any new issues regarding safety or effectiveness, and therefore is suitable for commercial sale.
