Intended Use

When used in the Humelock II Reversible Shoulder System: The Humelock II Reversible Shoulder is indicated for primary, fracture or revision total shoulder arthroplasty for the relief of pain and to improve function in patients with a massive and non-repairable rotator cuff tear.

The patient's joint must be anatomically and structurally suited to receive the selected implants and a functional deltoid muscle is necessary to use the device.

The humeral stems are intended for cementless use. The metaglene baseplate is intended for cementless use with the addition of screws for fixation.

When used in the Humelock Reversed Shoulder System:

The Humelock Reversed Shoulder System is indicated for primary, fracture or revision total shoulder arthroplasty for the relief of pain and to improve function in patients with a massive and non-repairable cuff tear.

The patient's joint must be anatomically suited to receive the selected implants and a functional deltoid muscle is necessary to use the device.

During primary or revision surgery, if the glenoid bone stock appears to be insufficient to bear the reversed glenoid components or the glenoid bone fractures during the procedure, a taper adapter can be used to convert the Humelock Reversed Shoulder to an anatomic hemishoulder prosthesis.

The humeral stem of the Humelock Reversed Cemented Shoulder Prothesis is intended for cemented use only. The humeral stem of the Humelock Reversed Cementless Shoulder Prothesis is lockable with two cortical bone screws and is intended for cementless use only. An optional anti-rotational spoiler can be used with either the cementless or the cemented stems.

The glenoid baseplate and post extension are intended for cementless use with the addition of screws for fixation.

When used in the Humeris Shoulder System:In an anatomic shoulder configuration, the Humeris Shoulder System is indicated for use in total and hemi-shoulder replacement to treat:

  • A severely painful and/or disabled joint resulting from osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis; - Other difficult clinical problems where shoulder arthrodesis or resection arthroplasty are not acceptable (e.q. revision of a previously implanted primary component, a humeral plate or a humeral nail).

In a reverse shoulder configuration, the Humeris Shoulder is indicated for primary or revision total shoulder arthroplasty for the relief of pain and to improve function in patients with a massive and non-repairable rotator cuff tear.

The patient's joint must be anatomically and structurally suited to receive the selected implants and a functional deltoid muscle is necessary to use the device.

The humeral stem of the Humeris Cementless Shoulder is intended for cementless use only. The humeral stem of the Humeris Cemented Shoulder is intended for cemented use only. The glenoid components of the Humeris Shoulder System are intended for cemented use only. The glenoid baseplate component is intended for cementless use with the addition of screws for fixation.

Device Description

The Humelock TiN Coated Glenosphere is a new component for Humelock II, Humelock Reversed, and Humeris reversed total shoulder replacement systems. The Humelock TiN Coated Glenosphere has a titanium nitride (TiN) coating, which is applied to the predicate glenosphere made of cobalt chromium molybdenum (CoCr). Compatible components for use with the Humelock TiN Coated Glenosphere to complete the reversed total shoulder replacement construct are the same as those previously cleared compatible components for use with the CoCr glenospheres in the primary predicate device, K150488 and are also components in K162455 for the Humelock Reversed Shoulder System and K163669 for the Humeris Shoulder, when used for a reverse shoulder construct.

2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance

  • Sample Size: Not explicitly stated for specific tests. The document mentions "wear testing" and "biocompatibility testing" but doesn't provide the number of devices or samples used for these non-clinical tests.
  • Data Provenance: All testing mentioned is non-clinical (e.g., in-vitro, material characterization, animal studies). There is no patient data involved in this submission.

3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Their Qualifications

  • This is not applicable as the evaluation relies solely on non-clinical testing and substantial equivalence to previously cleared devices and a reference device. There are no "ground truth" labels established by human experts on a clinical test set.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

  • This is not applicable as there is no clinical test set requiring human adjudication.

5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study was Done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance

  • No, an MRMC comparative effectiveness study was not done. This submission is for a physical medical device (implant component) and does not involve AI or human readers.

6. If a Standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done

  • No, a standalone algorithm performance study was not done. This device is a physical implant, not a software algorithm.

7. The Type of Ground Truth Used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.)

  • The "ground truth" in this context is established through objective scientific methods and standards for material characterization, mechanical testing, and biocompatibility, as well as the established safety and effectiveness profiles of the predicate and reference devices. For instance, biocompatibility is evaluated against ISO standards, and mechanical wear is measured.

8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

  • This is not applicable. There is no "training set" as this is not an AI/machine learning device.

9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established

  • This is not applicable as there is no training set.

Summary of Technologies / Substantial Equivalence

The Humelock TiN Coated Glenosphere is substantially equivalent to the primary predicate in that it is identical to the primary predicate on indications, design, dimensions, packaging, single use, sterilization, shelf life, pyrogen testing, biocompatibility, compatible components, instrumentation and surgical technique. It is identical to the primary predicate material CoCr. The change, subject of this 510(k), is to add the titanium nitride (TiN) coating to the surface of the glenosphere, which is substantially equivalent to the technology of coating on the reference device based upon the characterization and testing in accordance with the same scientific methods and standards. Differences between the subject device and the predicate devices do not raise new questions of safety and effectiveness.

Non-Clinical Testing

Biocompatibility testing has been completed in accordance with FDA Guidance titled, "Use of International Standard ISO 10993-1, 'Biological evaluation of medical devices – Part 1: Evaluation and testing within a risk manaqement process" (September 2016).Non-clinical biocompatibility testing is the same as the reference device and includes Acute System Toxicity Study: Cytotoxicity Study: GC/MS Fingerprint Study: Irritation Study: Sensitization Study. Characterization of the TiN coating demonstrates substantial equivalence of the subject device to the coating of the reference device - Bone Implantation Study, 28 Day Muscle Implantation Study: 90Day Muscle Implantation Study are referenced for the subject device. Wear testing under worst case loading and worst case environment with analysis of surface roughness and both UHMWPE and metal particle analysis have been completed.

Mechanical testing for the complete system was previously submitted with the cleared predicate device.

Clinical Testing

Clinical testing was not necessary to determine substantial equivalence of the Humelock TiN Coated Glenosphere to the predicate devices.

Conclusion

The subject device is identical to the primary predicate with the only modification of added TiN coating. The evidence reviewed to demonstrate substantial equivalence includes risk analysis, design controls, biocompatibility, wear properties of the TIN coating, and verification and validation activities to demonstrate that the TiN coating does not increase risk and does not raise new questions of safety and effectiveness of the Humelock TiN Coated Glenosphere.
