No
The summary describes a mechanical fixation system and does not mention any software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate the use of AI/ML.

No
The device is described as a fixation system for treating fractures and reconstruction of the facial skeleton and mandible. While it aids in the healing process, it does not directly administer a therapeutic agent or perform a therapeutic action itself; it provides structural support.

No
The device description states it is a "Fixation System" intended for the "treatment" of fractures and reconstruction. This indicates a therapeutic or interventional purpose, not a diagnostic one.

No

The device description explicitly states "Modified Plate and Screw designs," which are hardware components. The intended use also describes a "Fixation System" used in the treatment of the facial skeleton and mandible, implying physical implants.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for the "treatment of the facial skeleton and mandible, including fractures and reconstruction." This describes a surgical implant used directly on the patient's body for structural support and repair.
  • Device Description: The description mentions "Modified Plate and Screw designs." These are physical implants.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: IVD devices are used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, tissue) outside the body to provide information about a patient's health status. The provided information does not mention any such use or interaction with biological specimens.

Therefore, the Bioplate Mandible Fixation System is a surgical implant, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Dear Dr. Mackler:

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. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies.

You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.

This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your Section 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.

If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801 and additionally 21 CFR Part 809.10 for in vitro diagnostic devices), please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4613 .
