Intended Use
G1 40 Radiopaque Bone Cement is intended for use in arthroplasty procedures of the hip, knee, ankle, shoulder and other joints for the fixation of polymer or metallic prosthetic implants to living bone.
Device Description
G1 40 Radiopaque Bone Cement is a polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) bone cement that provides two separate, premeasured sterilized components which, when mixed, form a radiopaque rapidly setting bone cement. The packaging configuration (powder pouches, amber glass ampoule) for the subject device is identical to the predicate device.
More Information

No
The device description and performance studies focus on the material properties and mechanical performance of bone cement, with no mention of AI or ML.

No
The device is a bone cement used for fixation of implants in arthroplasty procedures, which is a structural component rather than a device designed to directly treat a disease or condition.

No
The device is a bone cement used for fixation of prosthetic implants, which is a therapeutic rather than a diagnostic function.

No

The device description clearly states it is a polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) bone cement, which is a physical material, not software.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states the device is for "fixation of polymer or metallic prosthetic implants to living bone" in surgical procedures. This is an in-vivo application, meaning it's used within the body.
  • Device Description: The description details a bone cement, a material used for physical fixation during surgery.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue, etc.) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment.

IVD devices are used outside the body to analyze samples for diagnostic purposes. This device is a surgical implant material used inside the body.

V. SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE

Technological Comparison

The subject device has similar technological characteristics as the predicate devices. Both predicates and subject device provide two separate, premeasured sterilized components which, when mixed, form a radiopaque rapidly setting bone cement. The subject device and the predicate devices are all polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) bone cements.

The packaging configuration (powder pouches, amber glass ampoule) for the subject device is identical to the predicate device.

The sterilization method for the powder of the subject device is identical to the predicate device. The sterilization method for the liquid component of the subject device is identical to predicate device.

Therefore, the subject device has the same design, intended use and mode of operation as the predicate.

Performance Comparison

The following performance data are provided in support of the substantial equivalence determination.

. Biocompatibility

According to its categorization and ISO 10993-1 recommendations, biological effects that have been considered as per categorization of the predicate and then suitable for G1 40 Radiopaque Bone Cement include cytotoxicity, sensitization, intracutaneous reactivity, systemic toxicity, pyrogen, AMES, LAL, and bone implantation toxicity and effects.

5

As recommended by the FDA's Guidance "Use of International Standard ISO-10993, 'Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices Part 1: Evaluation and Testing', the subject devices and predicates comply with ISO 10993 at parts -3, -5, -6, -10, -11.

● Sterilization

The sterilization process, including both the ethylene oxide method (powder component and aseptically processed, filled glass vials) as well as the membrane filter-sterilization (liguid component), has been validated and the sterility of the subject devices has been verified according to ISO 11135:2014, ISO 11138-1:2006, ISO 10993-7:2009, ISO 14161:2009, ISO 14937:2009, ISO 11737-1:2006, ISO 11737-2:2009, ISO 13408-1:2008, and ISO 13408-2:2003.

The shelf life of the G1 40 Radiopaque Bone Cement is three years.

● Material, Mechanical and Performance Characterization

Performance testing of compressive strength, bending modulus, cyclic fatigue, tensile properties, creep, fracture toughness, and shrinkage was conducted to characterize G1 40 Radiopaque Bone Cement as compared to the predicate, according to the FDA's Guide "Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) Bone Cement; Guidance for Industry and FDA". Results show comparable performances to the predicate devices, and are in compliance with ASTM F451-08, ISO 5833:2002, ASTM F2118-14, ASTM D2990-09, ASTM D638-14, and ASTM E399-12.

In all instances the device functioned as intended and all results were satisfactory and met all performance specifications.

VI. CONCLUSION

The G1 40 Radiopaque Bone Cement is as safe and effective as the primary predicate Heraeus Kulzer Palacos R (K030902) and the additional predicate G21 OrthoSteady G (K173494). The G1 40 Radiopaque Bone Cement has the same intended uses and similar indications, technological characteristics, and principles of operation as its predicate device. The minor technological differences between the G1 40 Radiopaque Bone Cement and its predicate devices raise no new issues of safety or effectiveness. Performance data demonstrate that the G1 40 Radiopaque Bone Cement is as safe and effective as Heraeus Kulzer Palacos R (K030902) and G21 OrthoSteady G (K173494). Thus, the G1 40 Radiopaque Bone Cement is substantially equivalent.
