Intended Use
The KyphX® HV-R bone cement is indicated for the treatment of pathological fractures of the vertebral body due to osteoporosis using a kyphoplasty procedure.
Device Story
KyphX® HV-R bone cement is a two-component PMMA-based system (powder and liquid) used in kyphoplasty procedures. The powder contains PMMA copolymer, barium sulfate (radiopacifier), and benzoyl peroxide (initiator); the liquid contains methyl methacrylate monomer, hydroquinone (stabilizer), and N,N-dimethyl-p-toluidine (promoter). Components are mixed by the clinician prior to use. The cement is injected into the vertebral body to stabilize pathological fractures caused by osteoporosis. It provides structural support to the fractured bone. The device is intended for single use in a clinical setting.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data provided. Substantial equivalence is supported by bench testing, including mechanical testing per ISO 5833:2002 and biocompatibility evaluation per ISO 10993.
Technological Characteristics
Two-component PMMA bone cement. Powder: PMMA/methyl-methacrylate-styrene copolymer, barium sulfate, benzoyl peroxide. Liquid: methyl methacrylate monomer, hydroquinone, N,N-dimethyl-p-toluidine. Mechanical properties verified per ISO 5833:2002. Biocompatibility per ISO 10993. Sterilization: Gamma radiation (solid components/pouch, SAL 10^-6), filtration (liquid, SAL 10^-3), and ethylene oxide (outer packaging).
Indications for Use
Indicated for the treatment of pathological fractures of the vertebral body due to osteoporosis in patients undergoing a kyphoplasty procedure.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
Polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) bone cement is a device intended to be implanted that is made from methylmethacrylate, polymethylmethacrylate, esters of methacrylic acid, or copolymers containing polymethylmethacrylate and polystyrene. The device is intended for use in arthroplastic procedures of the hip, knee, and other joints for the fixation of polymer or metallic prosthetic implants to living bone.
Special Controls
*Classification.* Class II (special controls). The special control for this device is the FDA guidance document entitled “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) Bone Cement.”
