More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a mechanical screw for fracture fixation and explicitly states "Not Found" for mentions of AI, DNN, or ML.

No
The device is a screw intended for fracture fixation, which is a structural support device, not one that directly provides therapy or modifies a physiological process.

No
Explanation: The device is a screw intended for fracture fixation, which is a therapeutic purpose, not a diagnostic one. It does not provide information about a patient's health status.

No

The device description clearly states it is a physical screw, which is a hardware component.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is "fracture fixation in hand surgery and neurosurgery." This describes a surgical procedure performed directly on a patient's body, not a test performed on a sample taken from the body.
  • Device Description: The device is a screw, which is a physical implant used to stabilize bone. This is a surgical device, not a diagnostic test.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
    • Analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
    • Detecting or measuring substances in samples
    • Providing information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening

Therefore, based on the provided information, the Synthes 1.0/1.2 mm Plusdrive Screws are a surgical implant, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

§ 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.
