Intended Use
The GMK Total Knee System is designed for cemented use in total knee arthroplasty, if there is evidence of sufficient sound bone to seat and support the components. This knee replacement system is indicated in the following cases: - · Severely painful and/or disabled joint as a result of arthritis, traumatoid arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis. - Avascular necrosis of femoral condyle. - · Post traumatic loss of joint configuration. - · Primary implantation failure. GMK Sphere can be implanted using a kinematic alignment approach. When a kinematic alignment approach is utilized, this knee replacement system is indicated in the following cases: · Severely painful and/or disabled joint as a result of arthritis, traumatoid arthritis or polyarthritis. - · Collagen disorders, and/or avascular necrosis of the femoral condyle. - · Moderate valgus, varus, or flexion deformities. - Cemented tibial wedges are to be attached to the tibial baseplate with both the fixing cylinders and bone cement. The screwed tibial augments are for screwed fixation to the tibial baseplate. In the case of a semi-constrained liner is being used, an extension stem must be implanted both on the femoral components. In the case a GMK Revision tibial tray is being used, an extension stem must be implanted.

More Information

Not Found

No
The document describes a knee replacement system made of specific materials and designs, with no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate AI/ML.

Yes

Explanation: The device is a total knee replacement system designed to alleviate pain and disability caused by conditions like arthritis and avascular necrosis, which directly indicates a therapeutic purpose.

No

The device is a knee replacement system intended for total knee arthroplasty, which is a treatment for joint conditions, not a tool for diagnosing them.

No

The device description clearly states that the device is a "line extension to the GMK Total Knee System" and includes physical implants such as "femoral and tibial components" made from "cobalt-chromium-molybdenum alloy" and "Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene". This indicates it is a hardware medical device, not software-only.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use/Indications for Use: The intended use clearly describes a surgical implant for total knee arthroplasty to treat conditions like arthritis and avascular necrosis. This is a therapeutic intervention, not a diagnostic test performed in vitro (outside the body).
  • Device Description: The device is described as a system of implants (femoral and tibial components) made of metallic and polyethylene materials, designed for surgical implantation. This aligns with a medical device for surgical use, not a diagnostic reagent or instrument.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any components or processes related to analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.) to diagnose a condition or monitor a patient's health status.
  • Performance Studies: The performance studies focus on mechanical resistance, wear testing, coating characterization, pyrogenicity, and biocompatibility – all relevant to the safety and performance of a surgical implant, not an IVD.

In summary, the GMK Total Knee System is a surgical implant intended for therapeutic use in replacing a damaged knee joint. It does not fit the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

N/A

Intended Use / Indications for Use

The GMK Total Knee System is designed for cemented use in total knee arthroplasty, if there is evidence of sufficient sound bone to seat and support the components.

This knee replacement system is indicated in the following cases:

  • · Severely painful and/or disabled joint as a result of arthritis, traumatoid arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis.
  • Avascular necrosis of femoral condyle.
  • · Post traumatic loss of joint configuration.
  • · Primary implantation failure.

GMK Sphere can be implanted using a kinematic alignment approach. When a kinematic alignment approach is utilized, this knee replacement system is indicated in the following cases:

· Severely painful and/or disabled joint as a result of arthritis, traumatoid arthritis or polyarthritis.

  • · Collagen disorders, and/or avascular necrosis of the femoral condyle.
  • · Moderate valgus, varus, or flexion deformities.
  • Cemented tibial wedges are to be attached to the tibial baseplate with both the fixing cylinders and bone cement.

The screwed tibial augments are for screwed fixation to the tibial baseplate.

In the case of a semi-constrained liner is being used, an extension stem must be implanted both on the femoral components. In the case a GMK Revision tibial tray is being used, an extension stem must be implanted.

(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)
