More Information

No
The 510(k) summary describes a mechanical surgical tool (diamond burs) and its reprocessing. There is no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or any software-driven analytical capabilities. The performance studies focus on material properties, reprocessing validation, and basic function, not algorithmic performance.

No.
Diamond Burs are surgical accessories used to cut and drill bone during surgery, not to treat or cure a disease or condition. They are tools used in a therapeutic procedure, but are not therapeutic devices themselves.

No
The device, Diamond Burs, is described as a surgical accessory designed to cut and drill bone during surgery. Its function is to perform a physical action during a procedure, not to diagnose a condition or disease.

No

The device description and performance studies clearly indicate a physical, hardware-based medical device (diamond burs) used for cutting and drilling bone. There is no mention of software as the primary or sole component.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for "surgery involving bone and bony structures" and "cut and drill bone and bony structures during orthopedic procedures." This describes a surgical tool used directly on the patient's body, not a device used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) outside the body to diagnose or monitor a condition.
  • Device Description: The description reinforces its use as a "surgical accessory" for cutting and drilling bone.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples, detecting analytes, or providing diagnostic information based on in vitro testing.

IVD devices are specifically designed to perform tests on samples taken from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device is a surgical instrument.

Dear Mr. Varty:

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.
