More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a mechanical device for jaw immobilization with a safety release mechanism. There is no mention of software, algorithms, or any technology that would suggest AI/ML.

Yes
The device is used for temporary jaw immobilization, which is a therapeutic intervention.

No

The device is used for temporary jaw immobilization (treatment), not for identifying or investigating a disease, injury, or other condition (diagnosis).

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "Kit" made of "four components" which are "installed" and provide "temporary jaw immobilization." This indicates a physical device, 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 "in intermaxillary and maxillo-mandibular fixation," which is a physical procedure performed on a patient.
  • Device Description: The device is described as components installed by a surgeon or dentist to provide "temporary jaw immobilization." This is a mechanical function within the body.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: IVD devices are used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) in vitro (outside the body) to provide information about a patient's health. The description of the Casey Surgical Safety Release ™ Arch Bar Kit does not involve any such testing of specimens.

Therefore, the Casey Surgical Safety Release ™ Arch Bar Kit is a medical device used for a surgical/mechanical purpose, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

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.
