The summary describes a mechanical hip implant and does not mention any software, algorithms, or AI/ML capabilities.
Yes.
The device is intended for the treatment of various hip conditions, including degenerative joint disease, rheumatoid arthritis, fractures, and for revision procedures, all of which aim to restore function and alleviate symptoms.
No
Explanation: The Vitality Hip Stem is an implantable prosthetic device intended for use in total or hemi-hip arthroplasty, which is a treatment procedure. It does not identify, assess, or monitor diseases or conditions.
No
The device description clearly states it is a physical hip stem fabricated from forged CoCrMo alloy, which is a hardware component.
No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health.
- Device Description and Intended Use: The provided text describes a Vitality Hip stem, which is a surgical implant used in hip replacement surgery. It is a physical device implanted into the body to replace a damaged hip joint.
- Lack of Diagnostic Activity: The description focuses on the physical characteristics of the implant and its intended use in treating conditions affecting the hip joint. There is no mention of testing samples, analyzing biological markers, or providing diagnostic information.
Therefore, based on the provided information, the Vitality Hip stem is a surgical implant, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The Vitality Hip stem is intended for treatment of patients who are candidates for total or hemi-hip arthroplasty. The indications for use of the total hip replacement prosthesis include: noninflammatory degenerative joint disease including osteoarthritis and avascular necrosis; rheumatoid arthritis; correction of functional deformity; revision procedures where other treatments where devices have failed; and treatment of nonunion, femoral neck and trochanteric fractures of the proximal femur with head involvement, which is unmanageable using other techniques.
It is intended to be used with cement with acetabular components or with unipolar, bipolar and CoCrMo femoral heads.

Device Description
The Vitality Hip Stem is rectangular in cross-sectional geometry and tapers proximal to distal and lateral to medial. The proximal half of the body of the femoral stem is grit blasted to a surface of 4-6 um. This device is fabricated from forged CoCrMo alloy.
The Foundation Vitality Hip Stem is available with and without a calcar collar and has a Morse type taper to receive modular heads. The neck/stem angle is 130° for sizes 1-2 and 132° for sizes 3-6.

§ 888.3350 Hip joint metal/polymer semi-constrained cemented prosthesis.
(a)
Identification. A hip joint metal/polymer semi-constrained cemented prosthesis is a device intended to be implanted to replace a hip joint. The device limits translation and rotation in one or more planes via the geometry of its articulating surfaces. It has no linkage across-the-joint. This generic type of device includes prostheses that have a femoral component made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum, and an acetabular resurfacing component made of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene and is limited to those prostheses intended for use with bone cement (§ 888.3027).(b)
Classification. Class II.
