Intended Use
The Bioplate® Bioclip® Craniotomy Fixation System is intended to re-attach a cranial bone flap to the surrounding cranium after a craniotomy procedure. Each device is intended for single use only and only in conjunction with other titanium and titanium alloy implants. The Bioplate® Bioclip® Craniotomy Fixation System is contraindicated in the following conditions: The gap in the cranial bone is greater than 2.5mm for standard sizes. The gap in the cranial bone is greater than 4mm for XT sizes. The skull thickness is less than 4.5mm
Device Description
The Bioplate® Bioclip® Craniotomy Fixation System consists of a bone plate manufactured of 6Al 4V titanium alloy that utilizes a combination of fastening tabs and spring action to re-attach a cranial bone flap following a craniotomy procedure. Each device is provided non-sterile and must be sterilized prior to use. The device is intended for single use only and may be combined only with other titanium and titanium alloy implants.

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

No
The device is described as a fixation system intended to re-attach a cranial bone flap, which is a structural or mechanical function, not a therapeutic one that treats or cures a disease.

No
The device is described as a system intended to re-attach a cranial bone flap, which is a therapeutic rather than a diagnostic function.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a bone plate manufactured of titanium alloy, which is a physical hardware component, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to "re-attach a cranial bone flap to the surrounding cranium after a craniotomy procedure." This is a surgical procedure performed directly on the patient's body.
  • Device Description: The device is a "bone plate manufactured of 6Al 4V titanium alloy that utilizes a combination of fastening tabs and spring action to re-attach a cranial bone flap." This describes a physical implant used in surgery.
  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics (IVDs) are tests performed on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information about a person's health. This device does not perform any such testing.

The Bioplate® Bioclip® Craniotomy Fixation System is a surgical implant used for bone fixation.
