No
The summary describes a mechanical implant (intramedullary rod) and does not mention any software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate AI/ML.
Yes
The device is intended for the treatment of fractures of the proximal humerus, which is a therapeutic purpose.
No
Explanation: The device is an intramedullary rod intended for fixing fractures, which is a therapeutic rather than a diagnostic function.
No
The device description clearly states it is an "intramedullary rod," which is a physical hardware implant.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is for treating fractures of the proximal humerus. This is a surgical intervention, not a diagnostic test performed on samples outside the body.
- Device Description: The device is an intramedullary rod, which is a physical implant used to stabilize bones. This is a therapeutic device, not a diagnostic reagent or instrument.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue), detecting biomarkers, or providing diagnostic information.
IVDs are used to examine specimens from the human body to provide information for the diagnosis, prevention, monitoring, treatment, or alleviation of disease. The Synthes Proximal Humeral Nail is a medical device used for surgical fixation of bone fractures.

§ 888.3030 Single/multiple component metallic bone fixation appliances and accessories.
(a)
Identification. Single/multiple component metallic bone fixation appliances and accessories are devices intended to be implanted consisting of one or more metallic components and their metallic fasteners. The devices contain a plate, a nail/plate combination, or a blade/plate combination that are made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum, stainless steel, and titanium, that are intended to be held in position with fasteners, such as screws and nails, or bolts, nuts, and washers. These devices are used for fixation of fractures of the proximal or distal end of long bones, such as intracapsular, intertrochanteric, intercervical, supracondylar, or condylar fractures of the femur; for fusion of a joint; or for surgical procedures that involve cutting a bone. The devices may be implanted or attached through the skin so that a pulling force (traction) may be applied to the skeletal system.(b)
Classification. Class II.
