Intended Use
The modified screw designs for use with the Bioplate® Rigid Fixation Bone Plating System for Craniomaxillofacial Surgery are intended for use in the treatment of fractures and reconstructive procedures of the craniomaxillofacial skeleton and non-weight bearing fixation, including cranial bone fixation, brow fixation and orbital fixation. Each device is intended for sinqle use only and only in conjunction with other titanium and titanium alloy implants.
Device Description
Modified screw designs for use with the Bioplate® Rigid Fixation Bone Plating System for Craniomaxillofacial Surgery includes titanium allov screws of varving diameters and lengths and are used for fixation of unalloved, commercially pure titanium and titanium alloy plates to the craniofacial bony tissue.
More Information

Not Found

No
The document describes standard surgical screws and a bone plating system, with no mention of AI or ML capabilities, image processing, or data analysis.

Yes
The device is used in the treatment of fractures and reconstructive procedures of the craniomaxillofacial skeleton, which are therapeutic interventions.

No

The device description indicates it is a screw used for fixation of plates to bone in craniomaxillofacial surgery, which is a treatment or reconstructive purpose, not for diagnosing a condition.

No

The device description explicitly states it includes "titanium alloy screws of varying diameters and lengths," which are hardware components, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health.
  • Device Description and Intended Use: The provided information clearly describes a surgical implant (screws) used for fixing bone plates in the craniomaxillofacial skeleton. This is a device used within the body during a surgical procedure, not for testing samples outside the body.

The description focuses on the physical characteristics of the screws and their application in surgical fixation, which is the hallmark of a surgical implant, not an IVD.

Description of the device

Modified screw designs for use with the Bioplate® Rigid Fixation Bone Plating System for Craniomaxillofacial Surgery includes titanium allov screws of varving diameters and lengths and are used for fixation of unalloved, commercially pure titanium and titanium alloy plates to the craniofacial bony tissue.

Intended used of the device

The modified screw designs for use with the Bioplate® Rigid Fixation Bone Plating System for Craniomaxillofacial Surgery are intended for use in the treatment of fractures and reconstructive procedures of the craniomaxillofacial skeleton and non-weight bearing fixation, including cranial bone fixation and orbital fixation. Each device is intended for single use only and only in conjunction with other titanium and titanium allov implants.

Comparison of the devices' technological characteristics with those of predicate devices

The modified screw designs for use with the Bioplate® Rigid Fixation Bone Plating System for Craniomaxillofacial Surgery has the same indications for use as the Bioplate. Inc., Walter Lorenz, Synthes USA. Osteomed Corp., and KLS-Martin predicate devices. All of the technical characteristics of the modified screw designs for use with the Bioplate Rigid Fixation Bone Plating System for Craniomaxillofacial Surgery are substantially equivalent to the corresponding characteristics of the predicate devices, and any minor differences raise no new issues of safety and efficacy.

Dear Ms. Jones:

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.
