#### Reason for 510(k) Submission:
The purpose of this submission is to modify the labeling of the Restoration® Modular Hip System proximal femoral bodies and distal stems to add MR Conditional language.
#### Device Description:
The Restoration Modular Hip System is a modular femoral replacement system. It is comprised of a proximal femoral body, a distal stem, and a locking bolt. The system is assembled utilizing a male/female taper, and a locking bolt to lock the proximal femoral body and distal stem. Many of the components are available in a wide variety of sizes, lengths and geometries to satisfy anatomical requirements and surgeon needs. The implants are fabricated from Titanium alloy (Ti-6AI-4V-ELI);some implants feature a plasma sprayed titanium and plasma sprayed Hydroxyapatite coating. The implants are intended for cementless use.
#### PROXIMAL FEMORAL BODIES
The proximal femoral bodies are available in three different styles: Cone, Broached, and Calcar, in a range of sizes. Each proximal femoral body features a plasma-sprayed Hydroxyapatite coating over plasmasprayed Titanium.
#### DISTAL STEMS
The stems are available in a range of diameters and lengths, straight or curved, to fit various patient anatomical requirements. The distal stems are available in two different styles: Plasma Distal Stems and Conical Distal Stems. The Plasma Distal Stems are fabricated from Titanium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V-ELI) and feature a plasma-sprayed Hydroxyapatite coating over plasma-sprayed Titanium. The Conical Distal Stems are fabricated from Titanium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V-ELI) and are grit blasted, fluted components with a taper extending the length of the stem. The Conical Distal Stems do not have a plasma sprayed Titanium or plasma sprayed Hydroxyapatite coating.
#### Indications for Use:
The Restoration® Modular Hip System is indicated for use in:
{5}------------------------------------------------
- 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
- . Nonunions, femoral neck fractures, and trochanteric fractures of the proximal femur with head involvement that are unmanageable using other techniques.
#### Additional indications specific to the Restoration Modular Hip System:
The Restoration® Modular Hip System is intended to be used for primary and revision total hip arthroplasty, as well as in the presence of severe proximal bone loss. These femoral stems are designed to be press fit into the proximal femur.
#### Summary of Technological Characteristics:
There have been no changes to the technological characteristics of the subject Restoration® Modular Hip System devices as a result of the labeling to add MR Conditional language. The subject Restoration® Modular Hip System proximal femoral bodies and distal stems have the same design and are manufactured from the same materials as the corresponding proximal bodies and distal stems of the predicate devices.
#### Non-Clinical Testing:
Non-clinical testing as outlined in the FDA guidance document titled "Establishing Safety and Compatibility of Passive Implants in the Magnetic Resonance (MR) Environment - Guidance for Industry and FDA Staff," dated December 11, 2014 was conducted to characterize the compatibility of Stryker Orthopaedics Restoration Modular Hip System in the MR environment. Stryker also consulted the FDA guidance document titled "Assessment of Radiofrequency-Induced Heating in the Magnetic Resonance (MR) Environment for Multi-Configuration Passive Medical Devices - Guidance for Industry and Food and Drug Administration Staff," dated March 22, 2016, for the heating evaluations performed. Testing was performed according to the standards listed below:
- Magnetically Induced Displacement Force Test
Performed per ASTM F2052-15. Standard Test Method for Measurement of Magnetically Induced Displacement Force on Medical Devices in the Magnetic Resonance Environment
- · Magnetically Induced Torque Test Performed per ASTM F2213-17, Standard Test Method for Measurement of Magnetically Induced Torque on Medical Devices in the Magnetic Resonance Environment
#### · Image Artifact Test

{6}------------------------------------------------
- Heating by RF Fields Test
Performed per ASTM F2182-19e1. Standard Test Method for Measurement of Radio Frequencv Induced Heating On or Near Passive Implants During Magnetic Resonance Imaging
The labeling of the Restoration® Modular Hip System has been modified to include the MR conditional symbol and to provide the parameters under which a patient who has the device can be safely scanned.
### Clinical Testing:
Clinical testing was not required as a basis for substantial equivalence.
#### Conclusion:
Based upon a comparison of the intended use, materials, summary of technological characteristics, and preclinical evaluation, the subject Restoration® Modular Hip System proximal femoral bodies and distal stems are considered substantially equivalent to the corresponding proximal femoral bodies and distal stems of the predicate devices identified in this premarket notification.
Two short videos show you everything — or skip straight to the written tutorial if you'd rather read. You can reopen this any time from the Tutorial button in the top bar.
Part 1 — Search, results, and everyday workflows 16 min
Part 2 — Embeddings: the galaxy map 3 min
1. Search: exact and fuzzy
Type a phrase like "coronary artery calcification" into the search box. You get two kinds of results. Exact results match the literal phrase — prefix searches work ("coronary artery calcificati") but suffix searches do not. Fuzzy results match on the meaning and intent of your phrase rather than the exact words, and are sorted by relevance score. Hover over the Exact or Fuzzy badge on any row to see exactly why it matched.
Use the checkboxes above the results to narrow: SaMD keeps only software-only devices, AI / ML keeps only devices with AI.
Exact vs. fuzzy search: what's the difference?
Exact matches on the literal phrase (prefix search works, suffix does not). Fuzzy matches on the meaning and intent of the phrase rather than the exact words. Hover over the badge on any row to see why it matched.
You search "coronary artery calcification" and want only software devices with AI. What two filters do you apply?
Narrow by SaMD (software-only devices), then narrow by AI/ML (devices with AI).
2. The results table
Scroll right in the results table. The intended use is extracted for you — no need to open the PDF. The device story gives a high-level snapshot of what the device does and how it's used. The AI Performance sub-table shows each output name, acceptance criteria, observed values, and development/test dataset descriptions — the same format Innolitics uses for regulatory strategy outputs, and the fastest high-level fingerprint of an AI device. It is AI-generated but has been very reliable in practice.
Where do you find a device's intended use without opening the PDF?
Scroll right in the search results table. The intended use column is extracted for you; no need to dig into the 510(k) summary PDF.
What does the AI Performance sub-table show, and why is it useful?
Output name, acceptance criteria, observed values, development dataset description, and test dataset description. It's the same format we use for regulatory strategy output and Fast 510(k) input, and the fastest high-level fingerprint of an AI device. AI-generated but reliable in practice.
3. Judging fuzzy relevance
Fuzzy results trail off in relevance as you scroll. Use three signals to decide how far down to go: the fuzzy badge explanations, the intended use column, and whether your target output (e.g., Cobb angle) still appears in the AI Performance sub-table. Once it stops appearing, you're past the relevant zone. A top hit with a low score (~0.4) and a stretched explanation is a hint the closest predicates are far away — the project may be headed for De Novo. Note the fuzzy search is a pattern match: it doesn't handle negation ("not") well, and hardware devices can appear — filter by SaMD/AI ML to cut them.
How do you judge how far down fuzzy search results to go?
Use the relevancy signals: the fuzzy badge explanations, the intended use column, and whether the target output (e.g., Cobb angle) still appears in the AI Performance sub-table. Once it stops appearing, results are trailing off in relevancy.
4. Device detail page: chat and citations
Click a device name to open its detail page: device facts on the left, a chat window on the right. Ask something like "Describe the training data". The answer carries little citation bubbles — click one to jump to the highlighted passage in the source PDF, so you can verify every AI answer against the document. There's also a Download PDF button for sharing.
How do you verify an AI chat answer on the device detail page?
Click the citation bubbles to jump to the relevant highlight in the source document.
Reading rule for every project: how many summaries do you read in full?
At least the three most relevant 510(k) or De Novo summaries, in full. After that, use targeted chat questions to confirm your memory quickly. The tool supports this professional habit — it doesn't replace it.
5. Side-by-side comparison
Select multiple rows in the results table (aim for under ~10), then open the PDF Viewer tab. Ask one question — it goes to all selected devices in parallel, each with citations. This is the fastest way to compare and contrast devices: training data, PCCP scope, how they handled adding new scanners, and so on.
What does the side-by-side PDF viewer mode do?
Select multiple devices, open the PDF viewer tab, and ask one question (e.g., "Describe the training data"). It queries all selected devices simultaneously with citations, so you can compare and contrast quickly.
6. Collections
With rows selected, go to the Collections tab and create a labeled collection (e.g., "Cobb Angle Project"). Reload that selection any time — before a client call, pull up the collection and ask questions across all of its devices at once.
How do you save a set of selected devices for later use?
Select the rows, go to the Collections tab, and create a labeled collection (e.g., "Cobb Angle Project"). You can reload the selection anytime and carry it into the PDF viewer and other tabs that support selections.
7. Product codes and the regulations tree
Click a product code in the results to jump to it in the regulations tree — identification text, sibling product codes, and devices you can open in a PDF viewer on the right. Click a regulation number to see its identification, special controls, and related product codes. You can also search by product code or regulation number at the top of the tree. Always read the special controls if any exist for your device — it broadens your search and sharpens pre-kickoff research.
What can you do from the regulations tree view?
Browse product codes and regulation numbers, read the identification text and special controls, browse sibling product codes, open device PDFs on the right, and search by product code or regulation number at the top of the tree.
8. Chart view
Click Show Chart and segment by regulation number (or product code) to see which regulations dominate your result set. Clicking a regulation takes you into the regulations tree. Great for spotting that most matches are, say, hardware laparoscopic devices — a cue to go back and filter.
How do you see which regulations dominate a search result set?
Click "Show Chart" and segment by Regulation Number. Clicking a regulation takes you to the regulations tree.
9. The predicate graph
Open the Predicates tab for a family-tree view of predicate relationships. Click a node to trace its parents and children; selections from search carry over pre-selected. Commonly predicated devices are worth reading — a lot of people predicated them for a reason. The visual lineage is also handy on client calls, e.g. to show how a predicate family evolved and justify why your predicate still holds.
In the predicate graph, why are commonly predicated devices worth reading?
A lot of people predicated them for a reason. Clicking a node traces parents and children, and selections from search carry over pre-selected.
10. Embeddings: the galaxy map
The Embeddings tab plots every matching document in a 2-D "galaxy map" where semantically similar devices cluster together. Hover or click clusters to explore, and let AI label the clusters for you. Embeddings beat product codes for grouping: two devices can carry different product codes (LLZ vs. QIH) yet do the same thing — the embedding captures the meaning of the intended use and device story. This is also exactly how retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) works under the hood, and it makes a great visual on client calls.
Try it yourself
Head to the search page and work through a few of these AI/ML fuzzy searches to build intuition: perivascular fat on CT · aortic valve calcification opportunistic screening on noncontrast CT · breast cancer prediction on digital pathology slides · autism detection · gestational age prediction · a hearing aid that can also detect a pulse · foundation model based analysis of ECG · large language models · penetration test. Watch how the relevance scores, intended use, and AI Performance tables tell you when results stop being meaningful.
