The description focuses solely on the mechanical design, materials, and intended use of a hip stem, with no mention of AI or ML capabilities.
Yes
This device is a hip stem intended for total hip arthroplasty to treat various conditions affecting the femoral head and neck, such as osteoarthritis, fractures, and avascular necrosis. Its purpose is to replace or support a diseased or damaged body part to restore its function, which aligns with the definition of a therapeutic device.
No
This device is an implantable hip stem, used for total hip arthroplasty, which is a treatment for certain conditions of the natural femoral head and neck, not for diagnosing them.
No
The device description clearly describes a physical hip stem made of titanium, which is a hardware component.
Based on the provided information, 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 description clearly states that the Linear™ Porous Coated Hip Stem is a surgical implant intended for use in total hip arthroplasty. It is a physical device implanted into the body to replace a damaged joint.
- Lack of Diagnostic Activity: The device itself does not perform any tests on biological samples or provide diagnostic information. Its function is purely mechanical and structural.
Therefore, the Linear™ Porous Coated Hip Stem falls under the category of a surgical implant or prosthetic device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The Linear™ Porous Coated Hip Stem 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. 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 or 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. This stem is to be press-fit.

Device Description
When viewed in the mediolateral plane the Linear™ Porous Coated Hip Stem tapers slightly proximal to distal beginning at the distal border of the porous coating. Proximal to this point the stem flares approximately 6°. The stem has a rectangular cross-sectional geometry to provide rotational stability The Linear™ Porous Coated Hip Stem is fabricated from wrought/forged Ti-6Al-4V that conforms to ASTM F136 or F620, respectively. The outside surface of the stem is porous coated with commercially pure titanium (ASTM F67 grade 2) to provide a porous surface for enhanced fixation The stem is intended to be press-fit. The Linear™ Porous Coated Hip Stem is collarless and has a Morse type taper to receive modular heads. This stem is available with a standard head/stem offset and a lateralized version that provides additional lateralization of the patient's femur without increasing leg length. The stem/neck angle is 135°.

§ 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)
