Intended Use
The Foundation® Porous Coated Flared Rim Acetabular Cup is intended for treatment of patients who are candidates for total hip arthroplasty because the natural femoral head and neck and/or acetabulum have been affected by osteoarthritis, inflammatory arthritis, traumatic arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, avascular necresis or family and fracture, and revision arthromasty where hone loss is minimal. This system includes a metal-backed sineli and modular polyethylene liner and is to be used press-fit. These devices are intended to aid the surgeon in relieving the patient of hip pain and restoring hip motion.
Device Description
The Foundation® Porqus Coated Flared Rim Acetabular Cup is fabricated from wrought/forged Ti-6Al-4V that conforms to ASTM F136. The outside surfaces are coated with commercially pure titanium beads (ASTM F67) for the purpose of providing a porous surface for enhanced press-fit fixation. The flared shells are available with and without screw holes. It is hemispherical in shape and is available in sizes 44mm - 70mm.

No
The summary describes a mechanical implant (acetabular cup) and does not mention any software, algorithms, or data processing capabilities that would indicate the use of AI/ML.

Yes
The device is intended to treat conditions like osteoarthritis and arthritis, relieve hip pain, and restore hip motion, which are therapeutic actions.

No
The device is an acetabular cup, which is an implant used in total hip arthroplasty to replace the natural acetabulum. Its purpose is to relieve pain and restore hip motion, not to diagnose medical conditions.

No

The device description clearly states it is a physical implant fabricated from Ti-6Al-4V with a porous coating, indicating it is a hardware medical device.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the device is for the treatment of patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty. This is a surgical procedure performed directly on the patient's body.
  • Device Description: The description details a physical implant (acetabular cup) made of titanium, designed to be surgically implanted.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) outside of the body to provide information about a patient's health. IVDs are typically used for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening based on laboratory analysis.

Therefore, the Foundation® Porous Coated Flared Rim Acetabular Cup is a surgical implant, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

§ 888.3358 Hip joint metal/polymer/metal semi-constrained porous-coated uncemented prosthesis.

(a)
Identification. A hip joint metal/polymer/metal semi-constrained porous-coated uncemented 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 has a femoral component made of a cobalt-chromium-molybdenum (Co-Cr-Mo) alloy or a titanium-aluminum-vanadium (Ti-6Al-4V) alloy and an acetabular component composed of an ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene articulating bearing surface fixed in a metal shell made of Co-Cr-Mo or Ti-6Al-4V. The femoral stem and acetabular shell have a porous coating made of, in the case of Co-Cr-Mo substrates, beads of the same alloy, and in the case of Ti-6Al-4V substrates, fibers of commercially pure titanium or Ti-6Al-4V alloy. The porous coating has a volume porosity between 30 and 70 percent, an average pore size between 100 and 1,000 microns, interconnecting porosity, and a porous coating thickness between 500 and 1,500 microns. The generic type of device has a design to achieve biological fixation to bone without the use of bone cement.(b)
Classification. Class II.

Trade Name: Foundation® Porous Coated Flared Rim Acetabular Cup

Common Name: Metal backed acetabular component

Classification Name: Hip joint metal/polymer semi-constrained uncemented prosthesis per 21 CFR 888.3358

Description: The Foundation® Porqus Coated Flared Rim Acetabular Cup is fabricated from wrought/forged Ti-6Al-4V that conforms to ASTM F136. The outside surfaces are coated with commercially pure titanium beads (ASTM F67) for the purpose of providing a porous surface for enhanced press-fit fixation.

The flared shells are available with and without screw holes. It is hemispherical in shape and is available in sizes 44mm - 70mm.

Intended Use: The Foundation® Porous Coated Flared Rim Acetabular Cup is intended for treatment of patients who are candidates for total hip arthroplasty because the natural femoral head and neck have been affected by osteoarthritis, inflammatory arthritis, traumatic arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, avascular necrosis or femoral neck fracture, and revision arthroplasty where bone loss is minimal. These devices are intended to aid the surgeon in relieving the patient of hip pain and restoring hip motion. The intended use is press-fit.

Comparable Features to Predicate Device(s): The spherical shape, titanium substrate, and the indexability of liners in shell and bone screw holes are features that are comparable to other devices in commercial distribution. The outside surface of the shell is porous coated to provide a porous surface for enhanced fixation.

Test Results: Testing on this device included attachment strength of liners to shell. All results are sufficient for in-vivo loading.
