Intended Use
The BIOLOX delta Ceramic Femoral Heads are modular components used in total hip arthroplasty and are indicated for the following: • Patients suffering from severe hip pain and disability due to rheumatoid arthritis, traumatic arthritis, polyarthritis, collagen disorders, avascular necrosis of the femoral head, and nonunion of previous fractures of the femur. • Patients with congenital hip dysplasia, protrusio acetabuli, or slipped capital femoral epiphysis. • Patients suffering from disability due to previous fusion; patients with previously failed endoprostheses and/or total hip components in the operative extremity. • Patients with acute femoral neck fractures. The BIOLOX OPTION Ceramic Femoral Head System is comprised of modular components used in primary or revision total hip arthroplasty and is indicated for the following: • Patients suffering from severe hip pain and disability due to rheumatoid arthritis, traumatic arthritis, polyarthritis, collagen disorders, avascular necrosis of the femoral head, and nonunion of previous fractures of the femur. • Patients with congenital hip dysplasia, protrusio acetabuli, or slipped capital femoral epiphysis. • Patients suffering from disability due to previous fusion. • Patients with previously failed endoprostheses and/or total hip components in the operative extremity. • Patients with acute neck fractures.

More Information

Not Found

No
The document describes physical components for hip replacement and does not mention any software, algorithms, or data processing capabilities that would indicate the use of AI/ML.

Yes
The device, a ceramic femoral head, is a modular component used in total hip arthroplasty to treat severe hip pain and disability due to various medical conditions, indicating its direct role in alleviating symptoms and restoring function.

No

Explanation: The device is described as a modular component used in total hip arthroplasty (hip replacement surgery) for patients with various debilitating hip conditions. It is a prosthetic implant, not a tool for diagnosing medical conditions.

No

The device description explicitly states that the device is fabricated from an alumina matrix composite and includes physical components like ceramic heads and a titanium adapter. This indicates a hardware-based medical device, not a software-only one.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Device Description and Intended Use: The provided text clearly describes the BIOLOX delta and BIOLOX OPTION Ceramic Femoral Heads as implantable components used in total hip arthroplasty. They are surgically placed within the body to replace damaged parts of the hip joint.
  • Lack of Specimen Analysis: There is no mention of these devices being used to analyze any biological specimens. Their function is mechanical and structural within the body.

Therefore, based on the provided information, these devices are surgical implants, not In Vitro Diagnostics.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

Results from engineering analyses demonstrate that the subject BIOLOX delta and BIOLOX OPTION ceramic femoral heads for which the expansion of product compatibility is proposed remains substantially equivalent to the predicate devices cleared under K071535 and K130899 (BIOLOX delta) and K073567 (BIOLOX OPTION) respectively. This conclusion has been supported by rationales for wear justification (ISO 7206-2), material equivalence (ISO 6474-2, ISO 5832-3/ASTM F136) and Range of Motion according to ISO 21535.

§ 888.3353 Hip joint metal/ceramic/polymer semi-constrained cemented or nonporous uncemented prosthesis.

(a)
Identification. A hip joint metal/ceramic/polymer semi-constrained cemented or nonporous uncemented prosthesis is a device intended to be implanted to replace a hip joint. This device limits translation and rotation in one or more planes via the geometry of its articulating surfaces. It has no linkage across-the-joint. The two-part femoral component consists of a femoral stem made of alloys to be fixed in the intramedullary canal of the femur by impaction with or without use of bone cement. The proximal end of the femoral stem is tapered with a surface that ensures positive locking with the spherical ceramic (aluminium oxide, A12 03 ) head of the femoral component. The acetabular component is made of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene or ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene reinforced with nonporous metal alloys, and used with or without bone cement.(b)
Classification. Class II.

Dear Neha Sreenath:

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/cfpm/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 requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part

1

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/combination-products/guidance-regulatory-information/postmarketing-safety-reportingcombination-products); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) 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).
