Intended Use
- 1. Non-inflammatory degenerative joint disease including osteoarthritis and avascular necrosis. - 2. Rheumatoid arthritis. - 3. Correction of functional deformity. - 4. Fractures of the proximal humerus, where other methods of treatment are deemed inadequate. - 5. Difficult clinical management problems, where other methods of treatment may not be inadequate. Optional use in revision: in some medical conditions (e.g. revision when healthy and good bone stock exists), the surgeon may opt to use primary implants in a revision procedure. The Alliance Monoblock glenoid components are indicated for cemented application only. The Alliance Modular Glenoid components are intended to be implanted with bone cement. The TM and porous posts may be inserted without bone cement.
Device Description
The Alliance Glenoid system is a series of glenoid components which includes previously cleared (K191814) monoblock glenoids with 2 or 3 pegs and modular glenoids with 3 or 4 pegs. In addition to the predicate neutral (flat) modular 4-pegged design, an augmented configuration for correction of glenoid bone defects is being added to the product line. All glenoid types are available in various sizes. The posts of the modular glenoids are made of either a Tivanium® substrate with Trabecular Metal (TM) sleeve or the Tivanium® substrate with Porous Plasma Spray (PPS) coating. The Alliance Glenoids are intended to be used with existing humeral stem and head components to complete a total shoulder replacement construct.
More Information

No
The summary describes a mechanical implant for shoulder replacement and does not mention any software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate the use of AI/ML.

Yes
Explanation: The device is indicated for the treatment of non-inflammatory degenerative joint disease (osteoarthritis), rheumatoid arthritis, correction of functional deformity, and fractures, which are conditions that benefit from therapeutic intervention.

No
This device is a glenoid component for total shoulder replacement, intended for treatment of joint diseases and fractures, not for diagnosing conditions.

No

The device description clearly describes physical glenoid components made of materials like Tivanium® and Trabecular Metal, intended for surgical implantation. This is a hardware device, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information about a person's health.
  • Device Description: The description clearly states that this device is a "series of glenoid components" intended to be used as part of a "total shoulder replacement construct." These are implants designed to be surgically placed within the body.
  • Intended Use: The intended uses listed are all related to treating conditions of the shoulder joint through surgical intervention (e.g., osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, fractures, correction of deformity). These are clinical indications for a surgical implant, not for diagnostic testing.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Elements: There is no mention of analyzing samples, performing tests on bodily fluids or tissues, or providing diagnostic information.

Therefore, this device is a surgical implant and not an In Vitro Diagnostic.

(a)
Identification. A shoulder joint metal/polymer semi-constrained cemented prosthesis is a device intended to be implanted to replace a shoulder 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 humeral resurfacing component made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum, and a glenoid resurfacing component made of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene, and is limited to those prostheses intended for use with bone cement (§ 888.3027).(b)
Classification. Class II. The special controls for this device are:(1) FDA's:

Dear Patricia Beres:

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/cfpmn/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 801); medical device reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803) for
