The summary describes a physical medical device (acetabular inserts) and its manufacturing process, with no mention of software, algorithms, or AI/ML capabilities.
Yes
The device is an acetabular insert used in total hip arthroplasty, which is a surgical procedure to treat disease or injury, thus qualifying it as a therapeutic device.
No
Explanation: The device is an acetabular insert for total hip arthroplasty, and its description focuses on its material properties and design for surgical implantation, not on diagnosing medical conditions.
No
The device description clearly details a physical acetabular insert made of UHMWPE, a hardware component used in hip replacement surgery. It describes manufacturing processes, material properties, and physical testing, indicating it is not a software-only device.
Based on the provided text, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is for "primary or revision total hip arthroplasty," which is a surgical procedure involving the replacement of a hip joint. This is a therapeutic intervention, not a diagnostic test performed in vitro (outside the body).
- Device Description: The device is an "acetabular insert," a component of a hip implant. It's a physical implant designed to function within the body.
- Lack of Diagnostic Elements: There is no mention of the device being used to analyze samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.) or provide diagnostic information about a patient's health condition. The testing described focuses on the material properties and wear performance of the implant itself.
IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or screening purposes. This device clearly falls outside of that definition.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
The intended use of this additional style of System 12® acetabular inserts is identical to that of previously released System 12® inserts: they are intended to be used with Osteolock/Vitalock acetabular shells in primary or revision total hip arthroplasty.

Device Description
The purpose of this submission is to describe an additional style of System 12® acetabular inserts which are stabilized/sterilized using a process called Duration® II Stabilization. The purpose of the Duration® Il process is to crosslink all of the free radicals found in the UHMWPE rod stock by exposure to gamma radiation followed by a stabilization process in a heated oven. During this radiation/stabilization period, the UHMWPE is exposed to a very low oxygen concentration. The stabilized rod stock is then machined to its final configuration. The acetabular insert is packaged in air, and terminally sterilized by the gas plasma sterilization process. The System 120 Acetabular Inserts produced by this method conform to the requirements for Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene specified in ASTM Specification F-648, and the FDA guidance document on UHMWPE used in Bearing Surfaces for Orthopedic Devices.
These System 12® inserts are identical in design to previously cleared System 12® inserts: they are available in a range of outer diameter sizes to mate with the respective acetabular shell, and 22.0, 22.2, 26, 28, and 32mm inner diameters to mate with Howmedica femoral heads. These inserts are available in a neutral, 10°, and 15° hooded design. The locking mechanism of this style of acetabular insert is identical to previously released System 12® acetabular inserts.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
Testing was performed in accordance with the draft FDA guidance on UHMWPE.
Key findings:
- Duration® II products meet all ASTM F 648 specified standards
- Duration® II products have no detectable oxidation as measured by FTIR up to 30 days of accelerated aging at 80° C in air.
- Duration® II products have a higher gel content (cross-linking) than air irradiated UHMWPE measured in accordance with modified ASTM D2765-90 standard.
- Duration® II has a lower tensile modulus than air irradiated UHMWPE. This lower stiffness has demonstrated an increase in contact area and a decrease in contact stress.
- No free radicals are detected in the Duration® II material when analyzed by 5. the ESR technique of the final product.
- Duration® II has a lower wear rate, as measured by hip wear simulator than air 6. irradiated UHMWPE (an average total wear of 168.60 ± 50.71 mm³ instead of 310 ± 40.8 mm³).Testing was performed in a multiaxial hip joint simulator for five million cycles using a 32 mm CoCr head articulating counterface and bovine calf serum as a lubricant. The results of in vitro tests have not been shown to correlate with clinical wear mechanisms.

§ 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)

These inserts are available in a neutral, 10°, and 15° hooded design. The locking mechanism of this style of acetabular insert is identical to previously released System 12® acetabular inserts.
These inserts are substantially equivalent to the other System 12® acetabular liners which are already in distribution by Howmedica.
