## Intended Use

The Disc-O-Tech Confidence High Viscosity Bone Cement is indicated for the fixation of pathological fractures of the vertebral body using vertebroplasty or kyphoplasty procedures. Painful vertebral compression fractures may result from osteoporosis, benign lesions (hemangioma), and malignant lesions (metastatic cancer, myeloma).

## Device Story

Confidence High Viscosity Bone Cement is a radiopaque, self-curing PMMA bone cement; provided as a two-component system (20g polymer powder, 9.2g monomer liquid). Components are mixed manually by clinician prior to use. Used in vertebroplasty or kyphoplasty procedures to stabilize vertebral fractures. Radiopacity provided by 30.07% barium sulfate in powder. Device functions as a structural filler to provide mechanical fixation of fractured bone. Used in clinical/surgical settings by physicians. Benefits include stabilization of painful fractures and restoration of vertebral body integrity.

## Clinical Evidence

No clinical data provided. Substantial equivalence based on bench testing and comparison of material properties and chemical composition to predicate devices.

## Technological Characteristics

Radiopaque, self-curing PMMA bone cement. Two-component system: 20g polymer powder, 9.2g monomer liquid. Contains 30.07% barium sulfate for radiopacity. High viscosity formulation. Sterile.

## Regulatory 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.”

Dear Mr. Kahan:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to such additional controls.
