  2. Fracture dislocation of the hip that cannot be appropriately reduced and treated with internal fixation.
  3. Avascular necrosis of the femoral head.

  7. Pathology involving only the femoral head/neck and/or proximal femur that can be adequately treated by hip hemiarthroplasty.
Device Description

The EMPHASYS Femoral Stems include HA-coated femoral stems in standard and high offsets and in collared and collarless configurations. The EMPHASYS Femoral Stems are designed to be used as one component of a system of prostheses in hip arthroplasty. The stems are compatible with a DePuy modular metal, dual mobility, or ceramic femoral head, and either a one-piece or a metal-backed two-piece acetabular component for use in total hip arthroplasty, and with a modular unipolar metallic femoral head or a modular bipolar head construct for hemi-hip arthroplasty.

AI/ML Overview

The provided document is a 510(k) summary for a medical device (EMPHASYS Femoral Stems) and primarily focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device through non-clinical testing. It explicitly states that no clinical tests were conducted to demonstrate substantial equivalence.

Therefore, I cannot provide the information requested in your prompt regarding acceptance criteria, study details (sample size, data provenance, expert involvement, adjudication, MRMC studies, standalone performance), or ground truth establishment for a study proving device performance against specified acceptance criteria.

The document discusses performance in terms of non-clinical tests for mechanical properties and biocompatibility. Here's a breakdown of what is present in the document related to "performance data" and "acceptance criteria" in a non-clinical context:

Regarding the study that proves the device meets acceptance criteria (for clinical performance):

The document explicitly states: "No clinical tests were conducted to demonstrate substantial equivalence."

Therefore, the following information cannot be provided from this document:

  • 2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance: Not applicable as no clinical test set was used.
  • 3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts: Not applicable.
  • 4. Adjudication method for the test set: Not applicable.
  • 5. If a multi reader multi case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance: Not applicable. This device is a hip implant, not an AI-assisted diagnostic tool.
  • 6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done: Not applicable.
  • 7. The type of ground truth used: Not applicable for clinical performance. For non-clinical tests, the ground truth is established by the specified ISO/ASTM standards and internal compliance.
  • 8. The sample size for the training set: Not applicable as no clinical study with training data was conducted.
  • 9. How the ground truth for the training set was established: Not applicable.

In summary, this 510(k) submission relies on non-clinical performance data and a comparison of technological characteristics to a legally marketed predicate device to establish substantial equivalence, rather than a clinical study demonstrating performance against specific clinical acceptance criteria.

SUMMARY OF THE TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS OF THE DEVICE COMPARED TO THE PREDICATE DEVICE

The subject EMPHASYS Femoral Stems are similar to the predicate CORALL AMT Hip Prosthesis (K042992, K123960, K190344) in intended use, indications for use, design. The subject and predicate systems are intended for total or hemi hip arthroplasy and have the same indications for use. Both are forged titanium alloy. HA coated stems for uncemented use with a taper. Both devices have the same size tapers, and both are offered in collaress, standard offset and high offset configurations. Both devices are used in a modular hip construct which includes DePuy femoral head and acetabular components. The design of the subject and predicate devices is similar in terms of shape and function the intraosseous geometry of the subject devices has a narrower ML profile in places and is shorter than the predicate stems. The subject devices are offered in a 130° neck angle that is in between the two angles offered by the predicate devices.

PERFORMANCE DATA

SUMMARY OF NON-CLINICAL TESTS CONDUCTED FOR DETERMINATION OF SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE

Testing and engineering analyses were performed on the EMPHASYS Femoral Stems to demonstrate substantial equivalence of safety and efficacy with the predicate device, addressing:

  • Neck Fatigue (to ISO 7206-6: 2013) .
  • Distal Stem Fatigue (to ISO 7206-4: 2010) .
  • Range of Motion (to BS EN ISO 21535: 2009) .
  • Taper equivalence

Biocompatibility evaluation was carried out to ISO 10993-1:2018 and testing was carried out to include genotoxicity to ISO 10993-3:2014, cytotoxicity to ISO 10993-5:2009, sensitization to ISO 10993-10:2010, pyrogenicity to ISO 10993-11:2017 and chemical characterization to ISO 10993-18:2020.

The proposed devices also meet the requirement of bacterial endotoxin testing as specified in ANSI/AAMI ST 72:2019.

Magnetic Resonance Imaging safety evaluation testing was performed following ASTM F2503-13, and the tests evaluated the worst-case components and constructs for magnetically induced force (ASTM F2213-17), image artefact (ASTM 2119-07 (reapproved 2013)) and RF heating (ASTM F2182-19). The testing concluded that there are no safety issues related to magnetic field interactions under specific conditions identified in the labelling.

Hydroxyapatie characterization data, as recommended in the FDA Guidance 510(k) Information needed for Hydrosyapatite coated Orthopedic Implants, is provided.

SUMMARY OF CLINICAL TESTS CONDUCTED FOR DETERMINATION OF SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE AND/OR OF CLINICAL INFORMATION

No clinical tests were conducted to demonstrate substantial equivalence.

CONCLUSIONS DRAWN FROM NON-CLINICAL AND CLINICAL DATA

The subject EMPHASYS Femoral Stems are substantially equivalent to the predicate CORAIL AMT Hip Prosthesis.

§ 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.
