Intended Use
The Minima S System is indicated for use in partial or total hip arthroplasty and is intended for press-fit (uncemented) use. When used in total hip arthroplasty, the Minima S Stems are intended for use with compatible femoral heads and acetabular components. When used in partial hip arthroplasty, the Minima S stems are intended for use with Lock Bipolar Heads. Hip arthroplasty is intended for reduction or relief of pain and/or improved hip function in skeletally mature patients with the following conditions: - non-inflammatory degenerative joint disease such as osteoarthritis, avascular necrosis and hip dysplasia; - rheumatoid arthritis; - treatment of femoral head and neck fractures; - revisions in cases of good remaining femoral bone stock.
Device Story
Minima S System is a monolithic, collarless, cementless femoral hip prosthesis; available in 9 sizes with standard/lateralized versions. Stem manufactured from Ti6Al4V with proximal plasma-sprayed titanium coating; features 12/14 conical taper for coupling with Biolox Delta ceramic heads or Lock Bipolar heads. Designed for press-fit insertion into femoral canal; rectangular section and V-shaped A-P profile improve bone morphology adaptability. Used by orthopedic surgeons in clinical settings for total or partial hip arthroplasty. Provides structural replacement of femoral head/neck to restore hip function and reduce pain. Biolox Delta heads articulate with acetabular components (e.g., Delta TT Acetabular System) or bipolar heads. Clinical benefit derived from mechanical restoration of joint stability and mobility.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Substantial equivalence demonstrated via bench testing only. Mechanical testing included fatigue resistance (ISO 7206-4, ISO 7206-6), pull-out force evaluation, and burst strength testing for ceramic heads. Titanium plasma spray coating characterized per FDA guidelines.
Technological Characteristics
Monolithic Ti6Al4V stem (ASTM F1472/ISO 5832-3) with proximal plasma-sprayed titanium coating. 12/14 Morse taper connection. Biolox Delta ceramic femoral heads. Available in 9 sizes, standard/lateralized versions, 131°/134° CCD angles. Mechanical fixation via press-fit (uncemented).
Indications for Use
Indicated for skeletally mature patients requiring partial or total hip arthroplasty for non-inflammatory degenerative joint disease (osteoarthritis, avascular necrosis, hip dysplasia), rheumatoid arthritis, femoral head/neck fractures, or revisions with good remaining femoral bone stock.
Regulatory Classification
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.

#### Description:
The Minima S System is intended for partial or total hip arthroplasty in cementless use. It is a monolithic collarless stem available in 9 sizes (#4-#12) in standard and lateralized versions.
When used in total hip arthroplasty Minima S stems are coupled to:
- Biolox Delta femoral heads (object of this submission) or Limacorporate Femoral ● Heads (K112158) articulating with Limacorporate Cemented Cups (K112158) or
- Biolox Delta heads (object of this submission) or Limacorporate Femoral Heads (K112158) articulating with Delta TT Acetabular System (K112898).
{4}------------------------------------------------
When used in partial hip arthroplasty the Minima S femoral stem is coupled to Lock Bipolar Heads (Limacorporate K112158).
The Minima S stem is made of Ti6Al4V and it has a plasma sprayed titanium coating in the proximal area (ASTM F1472 - ISO 5832-3). The stem is characterized by a 12/14 conical taper to be coupled to Limacorporate Femoral Heads, Biolox Delta femoral heads or Lock Bipolar Heads. In addition necks are lowered to reduce accidental contact between stem and acetabular cups and they are mirror-polished to reduce abrasion of the UHMWPE cups in case of abnormal contact. The stem has a rectangular section and is characterized by a "V" shaped A-P profile to improve adaptability to the most common bone morphologies and to facilitate insertion of the stem in the canal.
The Minima S System stems is available in standard and lateralized versions with different CCD angles (131° and 134°), offsets and stem lengths.
Biolox Delta Heads devices are used by surgeons to replace the head of the femur during total or partial hip surgery. They are characterized by a spherical shape and are coupled with the acetabular cup (K112158, K112898) inserted in the acetabulum, in total hip replacement, or with Lock Bipolar Heads (K112158) in partial hip replacement.
Biolox Delta heads are coupled with the Minima S stems by means of a 12/14 Morse taper. Biolox Delta heads are made of Biolox Delta ceramic and are available with 28, 32 and 36 mm of diameters and in sizes (offsets) S, M, L and XL (XL size available only for head size 36).
#### Intended Use:
The Minima S System stems are indicated for use in partial or total hip arthroplasty and are intended for press-fit (uncemented) use. When used in total hip arthroplasty, the Minima S Stems are intended for use with compatible femoral heads and acetabular components. When used in partial hip arthroplasty, the Minima S stems are intended for use with Lock Bipolar Heads.
Hip arthroplasty is intended for reduction or relief of pain and/or improved hip function in skeletally mature patients with the following conditions:
- · non-inflammatory degenerative joint disease such as osteoarthritis, avascular necrosis and hip dysplasia;
- · rheumatoid arthritis;
- treatment of femoral head and neck fractures;
- · revisions in cases of good remaining femoral bone stock.
#### Predicate Devices:

- Biolox Delta Ceramic Femoral Heads (Smith & Nephew, K100412, K083762). ●
#### Comparable Features to Predicate Device(s):
The Minima S stems are similar to the predicate devices in terms of intended use, indications, design and materials. The Minima S stems can be used in total hip arthroplasty as all predicates and they can be used also in partial hip arthroplasty as the Modulus Femoral Hip System (K112158). All stems are intended for cementless use.
The Minima S stems has a design which is similar to predicates with the exception that Modulus stems are made of 2-pieces coupled through conical taper. Like predicates, the subject device is available in standard and lateralized versions, with different CCD angles, offsets and sizes.
The components of the Minima S stems are manufactured from the same materials as the predicate devices.
The same considerations can be done for the Biolox Delta Heads which are similar for intended use, design and materials to predicates
### Non-Clinical Testing:
The Minima S System was tested for fatigue resistance. Mechanical tests were performed on worst case components or constructs. The following tests were performed to demonstrate substancial equivalency of the Minima S System to predicate devices:
- Fatigue Test according to ISO 7206-6; ●
- Fatigue Tests according to ISO 7206-4 (at the end of the test the pull-out force for ceramic heads has been evaluated).
The tests results demonstrated the device's ability to perform under expected clinical conditions.
In addition the Titanium Plasma Spray coating has been characterized to verify the conformity to FDA guideline and referenced standards.
Biolox Delta heads have been tested for burst strength, fatigue and post-fatigue evaluation in accord to FDA Guidance Document for the Preparation of Premarket Notifications for Ceramic Ball Hip Systems. The tests results demonstrated the device's ability to perform under expected clinical conditions.

## Clinical Testing:
Clinical testing was not necessary to demonstrate substantial equivalence of the Minima
S System to the predicate devices.
