The summary describes a physical orthopedic screw and does not mention any software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate the use of AI/ML.
No.
The device is used for fixation during surgical procedures, which is a supportive role rather than directly curing, treating, or preventing a disease or condition itself.
No
The device, BioRCI® Screw, is described as an interference screw used for fixation of bone-tendon-bone or soft tissue grafts during ACL/PCL reconstruction procedures. This indicates a therapeutic or surgical function rather than a diagnostic one.
No
The device description clearly states it is an interference screw, which is a physical hardware component used in surgical procedures.
Based on the provided information, the BioRCI® Screw is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is for the fixation of bone-tendon-bone or soft tissue grafts during ACL/PCL reconstruction procedures. This is a surgical procedure performed in vivo (within the living body).
- Device Description: The device is an interference screw, a physical implant used to secure tissue.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
- Analyzing samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
- Providing diagnostic information
- Being used in a laboratory setting
IVDs are used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. The BioRCI® Screw is a surgical implant used for mechanical fixation during a reconstructive procedure.

§ 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.

Dear Ms. Gordon:
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. 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.
