No
The description explicitly states that a manual segmentation needs to be performed, and the planning involves the surgeon manually positioning implants. There is no mention of automated analysis, pattern recognition, or learning algorithms typically associated with AI/ML.
No
The device is described as an "information tool" for "preoperative surgical planning and visualization" and explicitly states it is "not for intraoperative or patient-specific surgical guidance." It does not directly treat or diagnose a medical condition.
No
The device is described as an "information tool to assist in the preoperative surgical planning and visualization" and "a preoperative standalone web-based medical software used for the planning of primary shoulder replacement." It does not make a diagnosis but rather aids in surgical planning.
Yes
The device is described as a "preoperative standalone web-based medical software" and the description focuses entirely on the software's functionality, data management, and planning interface. The performance studies mentioned are software verification and validation, further supporting its software-only nature.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is "to assist in the preoperative surgical planning and visualization of a primary total shoulder replacement." This is a surgical planning tool, not a diagnostic test performed on biological samples.
- Device Description: The description details a software for processing CT images, creating 3D bone models, positioning implants virtually, and generating a planning report for surgery. This is focused on surgical preparation and visualization.
- Input: The input is CT-scan images, which are medical images, not biological specimens.
- Function: The software's function is to aid in surgical planning and visualization, not to diagnose a disease or condition based on in vitro analysis of biological samples.
IVD devices are specifically designed to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for the diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment of a disease or condition. This device does not perform such analysis.

Device Description
FX SPS is a preoperative standalone web-based medical software used for the planning of primary shoulder replacement from CT-images. It comprises a secure database which enables the patient's cases management and the access to the planning interface.
Preliminary to the planning, a manual segmentation needs to be performed from the patient's CTimages. The segmentation process consists in building 3D bone models of the patient's shoulder and positioning anatomic landmarks on it. Once these data are generated, their compliance is checked. They are then imported into the FX SPS's database making the planning available for the surgeon.
The planning step involves virtually positioning of the shoulder prosthesis on the 3D reconstruction of the patient's shoulder. On that purpose, the surgeon chooses implants from a library of implants. Afterwards, he selects the size of the implant more suitable to the joint and he can move prosthesis components in all directions. Once the positioning of the implant is satisfying, he validates the planning to generate a planning report.
During surgery, he will have at its disposal the planning report comprising preoperative and planned parameters.

The segmentation process consists in building 3D bone models of the patient's shoulder and positioning anatomic landmarks on it. Once these data are generated, their compliance is checked. They are then imported into the FX SPS's database making the planning available for the surgeon.

Intended use / Indications for Use:
FX SPS is intended to be used as an information tool to assist in the preoperative surgical planning and visualization of a primary total shoulder replacement.
Substantial equivalence:
Comparison of Intended Use / Indications for Use: .
FX SPS and the e-Ortho Shoulder Software are both web-based software indicated for primary total shoulder arthroplasty. Both devices are intended to be used as an information tool to assist in the preoperative surgical planning and visualization of a primary Total Shoulder Replacement. Thus, there is no difference between the subject device and the predicate device with respect to indications and intended use.
. Comparison of Operating principle
They both use CT-images of patients to reconstruct 3D models of the shoulder joint and to position anatomical landmarks through a manual segmentation process. In addition, they both allow the surgeons to perform a preoperative planning by enabling reverse and anatomical implant visualization and positioning within the specific patient's bone models. Furthermore, both devices compute and display pre-operative parameters. Both devices generate a downloadable planning report. Thus, FX SPS and E-ortho have the same principle of operation.
Comparison of technological characteristics with the predicate device: .
At a high level, the subject and predicate devices are based on the following same technological elements:
- . Both are web-based software used pre-operatively;
- . Both use CT-scan images;
- Both inteqrate anatomic and reverse shoulder implants; .
- Both rely on manual segmentation for 3D models reconstruction; .
- . Both function with user profiles determining the possible user's actions;
- Both manage the cases from a list of patients; .
- Both provide to the user a milling tool; .
5
-
Both integrate 3D and 2D representation of the humerus and the scapula. .
The following technological difference exists between the subject and predicate devices: -
E-ortho provides software prediction of optimal implant sizing while FX SPS does not. .

The minor difference in technological characteristics between the subject device and the predicate does not alter the intended use of the device and does not raise new questions of safety nor effectiveness.
Non-Clinical Performance Data:
The following testing was conducted to evaluate the device:
- . Software verification and validation testing were conducted as required by IEC 62304 and documentation was provided as recommended by the FDA Guidance "Content of Premarket Submissions for Software Contained in Medical Devices". The FX SPS software was considered as a software with a "moderate" level of concern. All performance testing demonstrated that FX SPS performs according to its specifications and functions as intended.
- Concerning the angle or gap measurements, software verification and validation testing . were conducted. All performance testing demonstrated that FX SPS performs according to its specifications and functions as intended to ensure the required angle accuracy of 1 degree and gap measurement accuracy of 1 mm.
- User needs validation The software was validated with intended users through a human . factor test series to ensure the user needs and intended use requirements were met, in accordance with IEC 62366-1. All requirements were met and no new issues of safety or effectiveness were raised.
Therefore, the nonclinical tests demonstrate that the device is as safe, as effective, and performs as well as the predicate device.
Conclusion:
FX SPS has the same intended use, indications and principle of operation as its predicate device, as well as similar technological characteristics. The minor differences in technological characteristics do not alter the intended use of the device and do not raise new questions of safety and effectiveness, and performance data demonstrated that FX SPS is as safe and effective as the E-ortho shoulder software. Thus, the FX SPS software is substantially equivalent to the legally marketed predicate device.
