No
The device description focuses solely on the mechanical design and dimensions of a bone screw. There is no mention of software, algorithms, or any capabilities that would suggest the use of AI or ML.
Yes
The device is described as aiding in the fixation of fractures and reconstruction, which are therapeutic actions.
No
Explanation: The device is a bone screw used for fixation and reconstruction, not for diagnosing conditions.
No
The device description clearly details a physical, implantable bone screw made of titanium with specific dimensions and features, indicating it is a hardware medical device. There is no mention of software as a component or the primary function of the device.
No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
- Device Description and Intended Use: The provided text clearly describes a surgical implant used for fixing bones and ligaments within the body. It is a physical device implanted during surgery.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples, laboratory procedures, or providing diagnostic information based on in vitro testing.
The device described is a medical device, specifically a surgical implant, but it does not fit the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Device Description
The Self-Countersinking Bone Screw is a titanium screw that has cutting flutes in its head that allows it to cut into the bone, thus countersinking itself. The screw is also cannulated to allow insertion over a guide wire. The threads are self-drilling and self-tapping.
The screw will be available with diameters of 2.7mm and 4.3mm. The 2.7mm screws will have lengths from 8mm to 16mm (in 1mm increments) and 18mm to 36mm (in 2mm increments). All lengths of the 2.7mm screw are available fully threaded, with a short partial thread of 1/3 screw length and with a long partial thread of 1/2 screw length. The 2.7mm screw has a cannulation that will accept a 1.1mm guide wire.
The 4.3mm screw will have lengths from 10mm to 36mm (in 2mm increments) available fully threaded, with a short partial thread of 1/3 screw length and with a long partial thread of 1/2 screw length. The 4.3mm screw is also available in lengths of 38mm to 50mm (in 2mm increments) and 55mm to 65mm (in 5mm increments) and will be offered fully threaded, with a short partial 16mm thread and a long partial 32mm thread. The 4.3mm screw has a cannulation that will accept a 1.6mm guide wire.

§ 888.3040 Smooth or threaded metallic bone fixation fastener.
(a)
Identification. A smooth or threaded metallic bone fixation fastener is a device intended to be implanted that consists of a stiff wire segment or rod made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum and stainless steel, and that may be smooth on the outside, fully or partially threaded, straight or U-shaped; and may be either blunt pointed, sharp pointed, or have a formed, slotted head on the end. It may be used for fixation of bone fractures, for bone reconstructions, as a guide pin for insertion of other implants, or it may be implanted through the skin so that a pulling force (traction) may be applied to the skeletal system.(b)
Classification. Class II.
