Intended Use
In Anatomic: The AETOS Shoulder System (when used with the AETOS Humeral Meta Stems) is to be used only in patients with an intact or reconstructable rotator cuff, where it is intended to provide increased mobility and stability and to relieve pain. The AETOS humeral stems (AETOS Humeral Meta Stems) and head may be used by themselves, as a hemiarthroplasty, if the natural dlenoid provides a sufficient bearing surface, or in conjunction with the glenoid, as a total replacement. When used with the AETOS Humeral Meta Stems, The AETOS Shoulder System is indicated for use as a replacement of shoulder joints disabled by: - Rheumatoid arthritis - · Non-inflammatory degenerative ioint disease - · Correction of functional deformity - · Fractures of the humeral head - · Traumatic arthritis - Revision of other devices if sufficient bone stock remains The AETOS Shoulder System (when used with AETOS Stemless Humeral Prosthesis) is to be used only in patients with an intact or reconstructable rotator cuff. When used with AETOS Stemless Humeral Prosthesis, the AETOS Shoulder System is indicated for anatomic total shoulder replacement of shoulder joints disabled by: - · Non-inflammatory degenerative joint disease - · Traumatic arthritis - Revision of other devices if sufficient bone stock remains The coated humeral components are intended for uncemented use. The glenoid component is intended for cemented use only. In Reverse: The AETOS Shoulder System, when used with AETOS Humeral Meta Stems, is indicated for use as a replacement of shoulder joints for patients with a functional deltoid muscle and with massive and non-repairable rotator cuff-tear with pain disabled by: - Rheumatoid arthritis - · Non-inflammatory degenerative joint disease - · Correction of functional deformity - Fractures of the humeral head - Traumatic arthritis - · Revision of devices if sufficient bone stock remains The humeral liner component is indicated for use in the AETOS Shoulder System as a primary reverse total shoulder replacement and for use when converting an anatomic AETOS Shoulder System into a reverse shoulder construct. This facilitates the conversion without the removal of the humeral stem during revision surgery for patients with a functional deltoid muscle. The component is permitted to be used in the conversion from anatomic to reverse if the humeral stem is well fixed, the patient has a functional deltoid muscle; the arthroplasty is associated with a massive and non-repairable rotator cuff tear. The coated humeral stems are indicated for uncemented use. The coated glenoid base plate is intended for cementless application with the addition of screws for fixation.

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

Yes
Justification: The device, the AETOS Shoulder System, is intended to provide increased mobility and stability and to relieve pain in patients with various shoulder joint disabilities, such as arthritis and fractures. This clearly defines it as a therapeutic device aimed at treating or alleviating a medical condition.

No

The device is a shoulder replacement system and not used for diagnosing medical conditions. It is used to replace shoulder joints disabled by various conditions.

No

The device description and intended use clearly describe physical implant components (humeral stems, heads, glenoid components, humeral anchor) used in shoulder arthroplasty, which are hardware.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are devices intended for use in the collection, preparation, and examination of specimens taken from the human body (such as blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information for the diagnosis, treatment, or prevention of disease.
  • Device Description and Intended Use: The AETOS Shoulder System is a surgical implant intended for the replacement of shoulder joints. It is a physical device implanted into the body to restore function and relieve pain.
  • Lack of Specimen Analysis: The description and intended use do not mention the analysis of any biological specimens. The device itself is the treatment, not a tool for analyzing samples.

Therefore, the AETOS Shoulder System falls under the category of a surgical implant or prosthetic device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic.
