No
The device description focuses on the material composition and bioresorbable properties of the implant, with no mention of AI or ML technology. The "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML" field is explicitly marked as "Not Found".
No
The device, SureTac, is a bioresorbable and biocompatible polymer used for rotator cuff repair. While its purpose is to aid in the repair of tissue, which can be considered therapeutic in a broad sense, it is described as a fixation device (similar to its predicate devices) rather than an active therapeutic agent (e.g., drug delivery, energy-based therapy). Fixation devices provide structural support during healing, but typically are not classified as therapeutic devices themselves in the same way.
No
The device description indicates it is a bioresorbable and biocompatible polymer used for Rotator Cuff Repair, which suggests it is a surgical implant or fixation device, not a diagnostic tool. There is no mention of it being used to identify or analyze a condition.
No
The device description explicitly states it is composed of bioresorbable and biocompatible polymers, indicating it is a physical implant, not software.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is "Indicated for use in Rotator Cuff Repair." This describes a surgical procedure performed directly on a patient's body, not a test performed on a sample taken from a patient.
- Device Description: The description details a bioresorbable implant made of polymers used in surgical procedures. This is consistent with a surgical device, not a diagnostic test.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), detecting specific analytes, or providing diagnostic information about a patient's health status.
IVDs are devices used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This device clearly falls outside of that definition.

Device Description
The PGA/TMC SureTac is composed of bioresorbable and biocompatible polymers that have been used in various surgical procedures for many years. Polyglycolic Acid (PGA) and Trimethylene carbonate (TMC) copolymer degrades and resorb In Vivo by hydrolysis and are metabolized by the body. In animal studies PGA/TMC, also know as, Maxon have been shown to be biocompatible in both soft tissue and bone tissue.

§ 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.

Dear Mr. Bilobram:
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. Iisting 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.
