## Intended Use

All Exactech Hip Systems are indicated for use in skeletally mature individuals undergoing primary surgery for hip replacement due to osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, osteonecrosis, post-traumatic degenerative problems of the hip, and for treatment of proximal femoral fractures where prosthetic replacement is determined by the surgeon as the preferred treatment. Components of Exactech Hip Systems are also potentially indicated for ankylosing spondylitis. congenital hip dysplasia, revision of failed previous reconstructions where sufficient bone stock is present, and to restore mobility resulting from previous fusion. Cemented femoral stems and cemented acetabular cups are intended for cemented fixation only. Press-fit femoral stems and acetabular cups are intended for press-fit fixation. Press-fit components without hydroxyapatite (HA) coating may also be used with bone cement at the discretion of the surgeon. Femoral heads and endoprostheses are intended for use in cemented and press-fit applications.

## Device Story

The Novation Cemented Plus femoral stem is a modified orthopedic implant for hip arthroplasty. It functions as a prosthetic component to replace the femoral head/neck in cemented hip replacement procedures. The device features a trapezoidal distal geometry, collar, cement groove, and 'cobra' flange. It is designed to mate with previously cleared 12/14 femoral heads (CoCr, Zirconia, Alumina). The device is implanted by an orthopedic surgeon in a clinical/OR setting. It provides structural support and restores joint function, benefiting patients by addressing degenerative hip disease or fractures. The modification adds five additional sizes to the existing product line.

## Clinical Evidence

No clinical data. Substantial equivalence is supported by engineering studies.

## Technological Characteristics

Cemented femoral hip prosthesis; trapezoidal distal geometry; collar, cement groove, and cobra flange design; compatible with 12/14 taper femoral heads (CoCr, Zirconia, Alumina).

## Regulatory Identification

A hip joint metal/ceramic/polymer semi-constrained cemented or nonporous uncemented prosthesis is a device intended to be implanted to replace a hip joint. This device limits translation and rotation in one or more planes via the geometry of its articulating surfaces. It has no linkage across-the-joint. The two-part femoral component consists of a femoral stem made of alloys to be fixed in the intramedullary canal of the femur by impaction with or without use of bone cement. The proximal end of the femoral stem is tapered with a surface that ensures positive locking with the spherical ceramic (aluminium oxide, A12 03 ) head of the femoral component. The acetabular component is made of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene or ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene reinforced with nonporous metal alloys, and used with or without bone cement.

#### Device Description:

The proposed Novation Cemented Plus femoral stem is a modification to the existing Novation Cemented femoral stem devices previously cleared in K052787. The proposed stem has the same general design features (collar, cement groove, and "cobra" flange) as the predicate stem. but incorporates a more trapezoidal distal geometry. Additionally, the proposed device includes 5 additional sizes (standard offset Size 10, standard and extended offset Size 12 and 14) to the scope. The proposed stems mate with previously cleared 12/14 CoCr (#K041906), Zirconia ceramic (#K060107), and Alumina ceramic (#K032964 and #K051682) femoral heads.

The predicate and proposed devices have intended use and basic fundamental scientific technology and share the following similarities:

- · the same indications for use
- · the same design features
- · incorporate the same materials
- · the same shelf life
- · are packaged and sterilized using the same materials and processes.

### Substantial Equivalence Conclusion:

Results of engineering studies referenced in this 510(k) submission demonstrate that the proposed Novation Cemented Plus femoral stem is substantially equivalent to the cleared predicate devices.
