More Information

No
The summary describes a mechanical external fixator and does not mention any software, image processing, AI, or ML capabilities.

Yes
The device is described as an external fixator intended for the reduction, alignment, and stabilization of fractures and soft tissue deformities, which are therapeutic medical interventions.

No

The device description indicates it is an external fixator used for the "reduction, alignment and stabilization" of fractures and deformities, which are therapeutic actions, not diagnostic ones.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "balljoint-hinged external fixator," which is a physical hardware device.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
  • Device Description: The Fixano PF2 wrist fixation device is an external fixator. It is a physical device used to stabilize bones and soft tissues externally.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is for the reduction, alignment, and stabilization of fractures and deformities in the upper extremity. This is a surgical/orthopedic application, not a diagnostic test performed on a sample.

The information provided clearly describes a medical device used for treatment and stabilization, not for diagnosing a condition using a biological sample.

§ 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.
