Indications for Use
In an anatomic shoulder configuration, the FX V135 Shoulder System is indicated for use in total and hemi-shoulder replacement to treat: a severely painful and/or disabled joint resulting from osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis; other difficult clinical problems where shoulder arthrodesis or resection arthroplasty are not acceptable (e.g. revision of a previously implanted primary component, a humeral plate or a humeral nail). In a reverse shoulder configuration, the FX V135 Shoulder is indicated for primary or revision total shoulder arthroplasty for the relief of pain and to improve function in patients with massive and non-repairable rotator cuff tear. The patient's joint must be anatomically suited to receive the selected implants and a functional deltoid muscle is necessary to use the device. The humeral stem of the FX V135 Cementless Shoulder is intended for cementless use only. The glenoid components of the FX V135 Shoulder System are intended for cemented use only. The glenoid baseplate component is intended for cementless use with the addition of screws for fixation.
Device Story
Shoulder replacement system; provides anatomic or reverse shoulder constructs. Components include cementless humeral stems, humeral heads, and humeral cups. Humeral stems feature plasma-sprayed CP-Ti and HA coating for cementless fixation. Reverse configuration utilizes humeral cup and optional spacer to mate with humeral stem and glenosphere/baseplate assembly. Used by orthopedic surgeons in clinical settings to treat joint pain, disability, or rotator cuff deficiency. Device restores joint function and relieves pain through mechanical replacement of damaged shoulder structures. Output is a surgically implanted prosthesis; clinical decision-making based on patient anatomy and functional status.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Substantial equivalence determined via non-clinical bench testing, including range of motion analysis and construct fatigue testing. All test constructs completed cycles without failure.
Technological Characteristics
Materials: Ti-6Al-4V ELI (ISO 5832-3), CoCrMo (ISO 5832-12), UHMWPE (ISO 5834-2), CP-Ti. Features plasma-sprayed CP-Ti and HA coating on humeral stems. Modular design with female taper connections. Cementless humeral stem; cemented glenoid components; cementless glenoid baseplate with screw fixation. Single-use.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients requiring total or hemi-shoulder replacement due to osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, or complex conditions (e.g., revision of prior implants) in anatomic configuration; or primary/revision total shoulder arthroplasty for pain relief and function improvement in patients with massive, non-repairable rotator cuff tears in reverse configuration. Requires functional deltoid muscle and anatomically suitable joint.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A shoulder joint metal/polymer semi-constrained cemented prosthesis is a device intended to be implanted to replace a shoulder joint. The device limits translation and rotation in one or more planes via the geometry of its articulating surfaces. It has no linkage across-the-joint. This generic type of device includes prostheses that have a humeral resurfacing component made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum, and a glenoid resurfacing component made of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene, and is limited to those prostheses intended for use with bone cement (§ 888.3027).

{4}------------------------------------------------
Humeral Cup 135/145° and a new humeral spacer on the reverse configuration, and on the anatomic configuration, the new humeral stem and new humeral heads.
The Humeral Stem of the FX V135 Shoulder Prosthesis is manufactured from Ti-6AI-4V ELI alloy conforming to ISO 5832-3 and is available in diameters of 10-20mm in the diaphysis dependent upon the epiphyseal size 32, 36, or 40mm. All have a length of 70mm. The distal end of the humeral stem is quadrangular and bead blasted. The proximal portion of the humeral stem has a plasma sprayed commercially pure Titanium (CP-Ti) and Hydroxyapatite (HA) coating.
The FX V135 Humeral Stems incorporate a female taper for attachment of compatible components.
The new FX V135 Humeral Head is available in two versions and are manufactured from CoCrMo alloy conforming to ISO 5832-12. The new FX V135 Humeral Cup 135/145° is available in three sizes, Ø32, Ø36 and Ø40mm. Each size is available in two versions, standard and stability. Each version is available in three heights: +3mm, +6mm; and is compatible with all sizes of FX V135 Humeral Stems. The FX V135 Humeral Cup 135/145º is pre-assembled, one-piece component manufactured from ultra high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) conforming to ISO5834-2 and Ti-6AI-4V ELI alloy conforming to ISO 5832-3. The new Humeral Cup 135/145° may be used with the new Humeral Spacer +9mm to increase the cup offset.
The FX V135 Humeral Stems can be used with previously cleared components including a taper adapter, a centered or offset humeral head and a 2 peg or 3 or 4 peg cemented glenoid for use in an anatomical shoulder configuration.
For reverse configuration, the FX V135 Humeral Stem can be used with a humeral cup and optional spacer, a centered or eccentric glenosphere with or without a central screw, a glenoid baseplate (with or without a central screw), optional post extensions and standard (compression) or locking bone screws around the periphery of the baseplate. The previously cleared Humeral Cups or the subject Humeral Cup 135/145° mate with the FX V135 Humeral Stem to complete the reverse configuration.
# Indications for Use:
In an anatomic shoulder configuration, the FX V135 Shoulder System is indicated for use in total and hemi-shoulder replacement to treat:
- a severely painful and/or disabled joint resulting from osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis; -
- other difficult clinical problems where shoulder arthrodesis or resection arthroplasty are not acceptable (e.g. revision of a previously implanted primary component, a humeral plate or a humeral nail).
{5}------------------------------------------------
In a reverse shoulder configuration, the FX V135 Shoulder is indicated for primary or revision total shoulder arthroplasty for the relief of pain and to improve function in patients with massive and non-repairable rotator cuff tear.

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.
