The document describes a hip replacement system and its components, focusing on materials, fixation methods, and compatibility with other components. There is no mention of AI or ML technology in the intended use, device description, or performance studies.

Yes
The device is a hip replacement component, indicated for various degenerative and traumatic conditions of the hip joint. Its purpose is to replace a damaged hip joint and restore its function, which is a therapeutic intervention.

No

The device is a hip replacement component intended for surgical implantation, not for diagnosing medical conditions.

No

The device description clearly states it is a physical implant (femoral stem) made of titanium alloy with coatings, intended for surgical implantation. This is a hardware device, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health.
  • Device Description and Intended Use: The description clearly states that this device is a hip replacement component (femoral stem, acetabular cup, etc.) intended to be surgically implanted to replace a hip joint. It is used in the body, not to test samples from the body.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The text does not mention any analysis of biological samples, diagnostic testing, or providing information about a disease state based on laboratory results.

Therefore, this device falls under the category of a surgically implanted medical device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic.

(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.
