No
The summary describes patient-specific implant design based on imaging and software, but there is no mention of AI or ML being used in this process. The focus is on material equivalence and performance compared to predicate devices.
Yes
The device is a knee replacement system intended to treat painful joint disease, post-traumatic loss of joint function, and deformities, which are conditions that impair health and function. Its purpose is to restore joint function and alleviate pain.
No
Explanation: This device is a total knee replacement system (KRS), which is a prosthetic implant used for surgical intervention, not for diagnosing conditions.
No
The device description clearly states that the system includes physical components such as femoral, tibial, and patellar components made from various alloys and polyethylene, as well as surgical instruments. While software is used for patient-specific design, the device itself is a physical implant system.
Based on the provided text, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
- Device Description: The text describes a knee replacement system, which is a surgical implant used to replace damaged knee joints. This is a physical device implanted within the body, not a test performed on a sample outside the body.
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it's for "use as a total knee replacement in patients with knee joint pain and disability." This is a therapeutic intervention, not a diagnostic test.
- No Mention of Samples: The text does not mention the collection or analysis of any biological samples.
Therefore, the iTotal Identity® Cruciate Retaining (CR) Knee Replacement System and iTotal Identity® Posterior Stabilized (PS) Knee Replacement System are medical devices, specifically surgical implants, and not IVDs.

Device Description
iTotal Identity® Cruciate Retaining (CR) Knee Replacement System (KRS) and iTotal Identity® Posterior Stabilized (PS) Knee Replacement System (KRS) are patient specific tri-compartmental faceted knee replacements systems. The iTotal Identity CR KRS is a faceted posterior cruciate ligament retaining knee replacement system. It is a semi-constrained, cemented knee implant which consists of femoral, tibial, and patellar components. iTotal Identity® PS KRS is a semi-constrained, cemented knee implant consisting of femoral, tibial, patellar and articular tibial insert components.
Using patient imaging and a combination of proprietary and off-the-shelf software, a patient-specific implant is designed that best meets the geometric and anatomic requirements of the specific patient. The femoral component is manufactured from cobalt chromium molybdenum (CoCrMo) alloy. The tibial component includes a metal tray and tray keel stem extension manufactured from titanium (Ti6AL4V-ELI) alloy, a tibial tray keel cap manufactured from polyethylene (UHMWPE) and either one or two polyethylene inserts (Two piece is CR only). The polyethylene inserts may be manufactured from either UHMWPE or iPoly® XE (a highly cross-linked vitamin E stabilized UHMWPE). The patellar component is provided in either a round or oval dome shape and may be manufactured from either UHMWPE or iPoly® XE.
For user convenience, single-use, patient-specific ancillary orthopedic manual surgical instruments designed for use with the proposed iTotal Identity® CR KRS or iTotal Identity® PS KRS are provided to assist in the positioning of the total knee replacement components intraoperatively and in guiding the cutting of bone. In addition, reusable orthopedic manual surgical instruments are provided separately.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
Performance Data Testing to compare the subject raw material to the predicate material was conducted. The difference between the subject raw material and the predicate raw material is that the subject raw material will not be mechanically annealed. The absence of an annealing step in the processing of the raw material does not have a statistically significant impact on the physical or chemical properties when compared to the predicate material and supports that the materials are equivalent.
In conclusion, the subject raw material raises no new issues regarding safety or effectiveness. The performance of the modified devices is expected to be the same as the currently marketed predicate devices.
