No
The document describes a family of surgical screws and their intended uses, with no mention of software, algorithms, or any technology related to AI or ML.

Yes
The device is intended to provide soft tissue reattachment, which is a therapeutic function for repairing ligaments and tendons.

No
The provided text describes the Arthrex Tenodesis Family of Screws used for soft tissue reattachment and fixation during surgeries, which is a therapeutic rather than a diagnostic function.

No

The device description clearly states the device is a family of screws made from titanium or polylactide, which are physical hardware components.

Based on the provided information, 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, or tissue) to provide information about a person's health.
  • Device Description and Intended Use: The description clearly states that the Arthrex Tenodesis Family of Screws are implants made of titanium or polylactide intended for the surgical reattachment of soft tissue (ligaments and tendons) within the body. They are used during surgery to fix tissues, not to test samples outside the body.

The information provided describes a surgical implant, which is a different category of medical device than an IVD.

§ 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.

The Arthrex Tenodesis Family of screws are manufactured using poly(L-lactide) or titanium The Anniox Tonedbel , fully cannulated anchors with a rounded head. The Tenodesis Screws are available with specific instrumentation to alde implantation.

Knee: Anterior Cruciate Ligament Repair, Medial Collateral Ligament Repair, Lateral Collateral Kigament Repair, Patellar Tendon Repair, Posterior Oblique Ligament Repair, and Iliotibial Band Tenodesis.

Elbow: Biceps Tendon Reattachment, Ulnar or Radial Collateral Ligament Reconstruction.

Hand/Wrist: Scapholunate Ligament Reconstruction, Uinar Collateral Ligament Reconstruction, Radial Collateral Ligament Reconstruction, Lateral Epicondylitis repair,

By definition, substantial equivalence means that a device has the same intended use and technical characteristics as the predicate device, or has the same intended use and different technological characteristics, but can be demonstrated to be as safe and effective as the predicate device. The difference between the Arthrex Bio-Tenodesis Screws and the predicate devices with similar indications do not raise any questions regarding the safety and effectiveness of the implant. Furthermore, the materials are well characterized and have been used in predicate devises with similar indications. The devices, as designed, are as safe and effective as predicate devices.

Dear Ms. Waterhouse:

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.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.

2

This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your Section 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.

If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801), please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4639. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21CFR Part 807.97) you may obtain.
