The summary describes a total knee replacement system with various components and indications for use. There is no mention of AI or ML technology in the device description, intended use, or performance studies. The analyses mentioned are engineering and finite element analyses, which are traditional simulation techniques, not AI/ML.
Yes
The device is a total knee system, including components like femoral components, tibial baseplates, and tibial inserts, which are used to replace damaged knee joints for various conditions such as degenerative joint disease, rheumatoid arthritis, and post-traumatic arthritis. This clearly indicates its use in treating medical conditions to alleviate pain and restore function, classifying it as a therapeutic device.
No
Explanation: The provided text describes a "Total Knee System" and its components, which are devices intended for joint replacement surgery. These are therapeutic or reconstructive devices, not diagnostic devices. The "Indications for Use" detail conditions for which the device can be used, not methods for diagnosing those conditions.
No
The device description clearly lists physical components (femoral components, tibial baseplates, tibial inserts, bone augments, cone augments) which are hardware. The testing also focuses on the mechanical properties and sterilization of these physical components.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use/Indications for Use: The indications clearly describe a device used in vivo (within the body) for surgical procedures related to total knee arthroplasty. This involves replacing damaged knee joints.
- Device Description: The device components are described as parts of a total knee system, such as femoral components, tibial baseplates, and tibial inserts. These are physical implants.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment.
IVD devices are used to perform tests outside the body on biological samples. This device is a surgical implant used inside the body.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
Non-Clinical Testing:
The following non-clinical testing was presented:
- Fatigue testing of the femoral components
- Fatigue testing of the tibial baseplate components per ASTM F1800-12
- Static shear testing of the insert-baseplate locking mechanism
- Contact area/contact stress analysis of the tibial inserts
- Range of constraint of the tibial inserts
- Range of motion analyses
- Ethylene Oxide Sterilization Validation per EN ISO 11135:2014
Previous testing performed to characterize the Tritanium surface was reviewed, and found to be applicable to the subject Triathlon Tritanium Tibial Baseplate.
The subject Triathlon components were evaluated to determine if these devices created a new worst case for image artifact, magnetically induced torque, magnetically induced displacement, and RF induced heating. These subject devices do not create a new worst case as compared to those Triathlon Total Knee components previously cleared in K172326. The subject devices are considered to be MR Conditional.
Additionally, contact area/contact stress and range of motion analysis was presented to support the update in range of motion for the Triathlon system.
Bacterial endotoxin testing (BET) as specified in ANSVAAMI ST72:2011 was used for pyrogenicity testing on the subject devices to achieve an Endotoxin limit of
§ 888.3560 Knee joint patellofemorotibial polymer/metal/polymer semi-constrained cemented prosthesis.
(a)
Identification. A knee joint patellofemorotibial polymer/metal/polymer semi-constrained cemented 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 includes prostheses that have a femoral component made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum, and a tibial component or components and a retropatellar resurfacing component made of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene. This generic type of device is limited to those prostheses intended for use with bone cement (§ 888.3027).(b)
Classification. Class II.
