Intended Use

The Osteonics +10 UniPolar Adaptor Sleeve is a single-use device and may be used with all appropriately selected, legally marketed Osteonics C-Taper Femoral Stems and with any size Osteonics legally marketed +0 mm Unipolar Endo Heads (Single-Piece Unipolar Design).

Device Story

The Osteonics +10 UniPolar Adaptor Sleeve is a cobalt chromium alloy orthopedic component used in hemi-hip replacement surgery. It functions as an adapter between an Osteonics C-Taper femoral stem and an Osteonics +0 mm Unipolar Endo Head. The device features a male and female C-taper design to facilitate modular assembly. It is intended for use by orthopedic surgeons in a clinical/surgical setting. By allowing for neck length adjustment, the device enables surgeons to restore proper hip biomechanics and stability during hemi-arthroplasty, potentially improving patient mobility and reducing pain associated with femoral head pathology or failed prior arthroplasty.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data provided. Substantial equivalence is based on design, material, and intended use similarities to legally marketed predicate devices, supported by pre-clinical data incorporated by reference.

Technological Characteristics

Material: Cobalt chromium alloy. Design: Modular adapter sleeve with male and female C-taper interfaces. Dimensions: Single size. Sterilization: Standard methods. Connectivity: None (mechanical component).

Indications for Use

Indicated for hemi-hip replacement in patients with femoral head/neck fractures or non-unions, aseptic necrosis of the femoral head, or hip arthritis (osteo-, rheumatoid, or post-traumatic) with minimal acetabular involvement. Also indicated for conditions requiring conservative acetabular procedures (avoiding bone cement) or salvage of failed total hip arthroplasty.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

A hip joint femoral (hemi-hip) metallic cemented or uncemented prosthesis is a device intended to be implanted to replace a portion of the hip joint. This generic type of device includes prostheses that have a femoral component made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum. This generic type of device includes designs which are intended to be fixed to the bone with bone cement (§ 888.3027) as well as designs which have large window-like holes in the stem of the device and which are intended for use without bone cement. However, in these latter designs, fixation of the device is not achieved by means of bone ingrowth.

Predicate Devices

• Howmedica Unitrax Unipolar Neck Adjustment Sleeve Component
• Osteonics® Neck Extension for Modular Endo head

Prosthesis Hip, Hemi-, Femoral, Metal/Polymer Cemented or Uncemented 21 CFR §888.3390

# Predicate Device Identification

The Osteonics +10 UniPolar Adaptor Sleeve is substantially equivalent to the following competitive and/or Osteonics' devices, which have previously been determined substantially equivalent by FDA:

- Howmedica Unitrax Unipolar Neck Adjustment Sleeve Component
- Osteonics® Neck Extension for Modular Endo head

{1}------------------------------------------------

## Device Description

Osteonics +10 UniPolar Adaptor Sleeve is composed of cobalt chromium alloy and is designed to function with any size Osteonics +0 Unipolar Endo Head (Single-Piece Unipolar Design) and any Osteonics C-Taper Femoral Stem. The Osteonics +10 UniPolar Adaptor Sleeve is designed with both a male and a female C-taper. The female end receives the femoral stem and the male end engages the Endo Head.

The Osteonics +10 UniPolar Adaptor Sleeve is characterized by the following features:

- · A basic taper design.
- · A smooth exterior finish.
- · Constructed of material that has a long history of orthopedic use.

# Intended Use:

The Osteonics +10 UniPolar Adaptor Sleeve is a single-use device and may be used with all appropriately selected, legally marketed Osteonics C-Taper Femoral Stems and with any size Osteonics legally marketed +0 mm Unipolar Endo Heads (Single-Piece Unipolar Design).

### Indications :

For use as a Hemi-Hip Replacement:

The indications for the use of Osteonics +10 UniPolar Adaptor Sleeve, in keeping with those of other legally marketed Osteonics Hemi-Hip Replacement components, are as follows:

# For Use as a Hemi-Hip Replacement:

- . Femoral head/neck fractures or non-unions.
- Aseptic necrosis of the femoral head.
- Osteo-, rheumatoid, and post traumatic arthritis of the hip with minimal acetabular involvement or distortion.

# Other Considerations:

- Pathological conditions or age considerations which indicate a more conservative acetabular procedure and in avoidance of the use of bone cement in the acetabulum.
- Salvage of failed total hip arthroplasty.

{2}------------------------------------------------

### Statement of Technological Comparison:

The substantial equivalence of the Osteonics +10 UniPolar Adaptor Sleeve to the predicate devices identified above-in terms of intended use, materials, and design features-is based on the following.

#### Intended Uses:

The Osteonics, +10 UniPolar Adaptor Sleeve, like the predicate devices cited above, is intended for use with appropriately selected, legally marketed components for Hemi-Hip replacement.

#### Materials:

The Osteonics +10 UniPolar Adaptor Sleeve and the predicate devices cited above are manufactured from the same material - cobalt chromium alloy. The materials used in the subject device and the predicate devices are not new and have been used for orthopedic applications including hemi-hip replacement in the United States and Europe for many years.

#### Design:

The design of the Osteonics +10 UniPolar Adaptor Sleeve is consistent with that of the predicate devices and differs in the following:

- The Howmedica Unitrax Unipolar Neck Adjustment Sleeve Components are ー available in four sizes while the subject device is available in only one size.
- -The Howmedica Unitrax Unipolar Neck Adjustment Sleeve Components differs in dimensional specifications from the subject device. This is consistent with the use of the predicate and subject device in that each is specifically designed with dimensions to accommodate each company's accessory components.
- ー The Osteonics" Neck Extension for Modular Endo Head is available in three sizes while the subject device is available in only one size.
- -The Osteonics Neck Extension for Modular Endo Head differs in dimensional specifications from the subject device. This is consistent with the use of the predicate and subject device in that each is specifically designed with dimensions to accommodate appropriate Osteonics legally marketed accessory components.

None of these design differences raises any new questions of safety or effectiveness.

#### Summarv

Based on the similarities and differences presented above, the supporting testing summary, the pre-clinical data incorporated by reference to prior submissions, and the fact that the Osteonics +10 UniPolar Adaptor Sleeve employs standard sterilization and packaging methods, the substantial equivalence of the Osteonics +10 UniPolar Adaptor Sleeve to other legally marketed, class II, components is demonstrated.
