§ 888.3353 Hip joint metal/ceramic/polymer semi-constrained cemented or nonporous uncemented prosthesis.
(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)

RATIONALE FOR POSTMARKET SURVEILLANCE REQUIREMENTS FOR PLASMA SPRAYED POROUS COATED HIP SYSTEMS
The Center for Devices and Radiological Health (CDRH) is requiring that manufacturers of plasma sprayed porous coated hip prostheses cleared through the 510(k) process whose submissions lack nine year cloared checagi one trating the long-term safety and effectiveness of the device, conduct postmarket surveillance, pursuant to section 522(a) (1) (C) of the Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act). This surveillance is required for the reasons discussed below.
Long-term (i.e., nine years and greater) clinical investigations of Long cerm (1707) firm Joof sintered porous coatings made from cobaltchrome beads or titanium fiber mesh have provided a reasonable assurance of the safety and effectiveness of hip prostheses with these coatings, (See 58 FR 3227, Jan. 8, 1993). In bench testing, plasma sprayed porous coatings have demonstrated lower mechanical strength and, in particular, lower resistance to abrasion than that ynoted for sintered cobalt-chrome bead or sintered titanium fiber mesh coatings. Thus, while short-term (i.e., less than four years) clinical data uncovers no difference in the clinical failure rates between plasma spray porous coated hip prostheses and hip systems with sintered porous coatings, because of the lack of long-term clinical safety and effectiveness information, CDRH believes that hips covered by plasma sprayed porous coatings should be monitored to insure that they are not prematurely failing due to metal debris, coating spalling, or coating delamination. These concerns, if realized, could result in significant incapacitation and require revision surgery.
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will determine if your protocol will result in the collection of useful data or other information necessary to protect the public health and to provide safety and effectiveness information for the device. We anticipate that an acceptable protocol will provide an actuarial survivorship analysis over a nine year period by monitoring what proportion of hips are revised in a representative sample of several hundred patients in whom the device was implanted, without bone cement, for rehabilitation of a hip damaqed by noninflammatory degenerative joint disease.
Stratification of the data may be necessary according to revision of the acetabular component, the femoral component, or both components. It is appropriate to further judge clinical success by obtaining patient self-assessment of how well the hip prosthesis is functioning. You will also need to collect data on patient deaths, losses to follow-up, and baseline variables which could potentially confound the survivorship data (e.g., device configuration of stem and cup models, diagnosis, and patient condition prior to initial implantation as judged by Harris Hip Score). Such data should function as an early warning system for late occurring effectiveness and safety problems.
