Intended Use
The use of the Implex HEP Acetabular Cup System, Cemented, is indicated for: a) Total Hip Replacement in severely disabled joints as a result of degenerative arthritis or avascular necrosis; b) Secondary revision of a previously unsuccessful acetabular component; c) Other hip problems where clinical experience has shown that alternative modes of treatment are less likely to achieve satisfactory results; d) Fracture dislocation of the hip, or irreducible fractures in which adequate fixation cannot be obtained; e) Non-union of femoral neck or head fractures; and f) Salvage of a failed primary or secondary total or hemi hip.
Device Description
Implex HEP Acetabular Cups, Cemented, are available in OD sizes from 40 mm to 70 mm (in 2 mm increments), and with four possible ID size options (22 mm, 26 mm, 28 mm, and 32 mm). Implex HEP Acetabular Cups are to be implanted using the Implex Acetabular Cup Instrumentation System.

The summary describes a physical medical device (acetabular cup) and its intended use in hip replacement surgery. There is no mention of software, algorithms, or any technology that would typically incorporate AI/ML. The "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML" and "Mentions image processing" fields are explicitly marked as "Not Found".

Yes.
The device is an acetabular cup system for total hip replacement, aiming to treat degenerative arthritis, avascular necrosis, and other hip problems, which are therapeutic interventions.

No
Explanation: This device is an acetabular cup system used for total hip replacement, which is a therapeutic intervention, not a diagnostic tool. Its purpose is to treat conditions like degenerative arthritis, avascular necrosis, or fractures, not to diagnose them.

No

The device description clearly states it is a physical acetabular cup system available in various sizes and intended for surgical implantation using instrumentation. This indicates a hardware medical device, not a software-only one.

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, or tissue) to provide information about a person's health.
  • Device Description: The description clearly states that the Implex HEP Acetabular Cup System is a physical implant (an acetabular cup) used in hip replacement surgery. It is a device that is surgically placed inside the body, not used to test samples outside the body.
  • Intended Use: The intended uses all relate to surgical procedures and the treatment of hip joint problems through implantation.

Therefore, based on the provided information, the Implex HEP Acetabular Cup System is a surgical implant, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

§ 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.

Device Trade Name:Implex HEP Acetabular Cup System, Cemented
Device Common Name:Acetabular Cup
Classification Name:Prosthesis, Hip, Acetabular Component, Cemented
Predicate Device(s):Implex A-230 Porous Acetabular Cup System, Cemented;
Implex Hedrocel® Acetabular Restrictor
Device Description:Implex HEP Acetabular Cups, Cemented, are available in
OD sizes from 40 mm to 70 mm (in 2 mm increments), and
with four possible ID size options (22 mm, 26 mm, 28 mm,
and 32 mm). Implex HEP Acetabular Cups are to be
implanted using the Implex Acetabular Cup Instrumentation
System.
Indications for Use:The use of the Implex HEP Acetabular Cup System,
Cemented, is indicated for:
a) Total Hip Replacement in severely disabled joints as
a result of degenerative arthritis or avascular
necrosis;
b) Secondary revision of a previously unsuccessful
acetabular component;
c) Other hip problems where clinical experience has
shown that alternative modes of treatment are less
likely to achieve satisfactory results;
d) Fracture dislocation of the hip, or irreducible
fractures in which adequate fixation cannot be
obtained;
e) Non-union of femoral neck or head fractures; and
f) Salvage of a failed primary or secondary total or
hemi hip.
Device Technological
Characteristics and
Comparison to
Predicate Device(s):The surgical instrumentation and design geometry of the
predicate Implex A-230 Porous Acetabular Cup System,
Cemented, and the Implex HEP acetabular Cup System,
Cemented, are equivalent. The primary difference between
the two device systems is that the Implex HEP Acetabular
Cup, Cemented shell is comprised of Hedrocel®, and the
Implex A-230 Porous Acetabular Cup is comprised of
porous coated titanium alloy.

The Hedrocel® material used in the Implex HEP Acetabular
Cup System, Cemented, is identical to the Hedrocel®
material which comprises the Implex Hedrocel® Acetabular
Restrictor. |
| Performance Data: | Testing conducted to characterize the materials and the
performance characteristics of the device under defined
laboratory conditions was provided to support a finding of
substantial equivalence. |
| Conclusion: | The Implex HEP Acetabular Cup System, Cemented, is
substantially equivalent to the identified predicate devices. |
