The summary describes a physical medical device (screws for bone fixation) and its intended use and design changes. There is no mention of software, algorithms, image processing, AI, ML, or any related concepts.
No.
The device is a screw used for fracture fixation in the craniofacial skeleton, maxilla, and mandible. Its function is strictly mechanical, providing support for healing. It does not actively generate energy or provide therapy, but rather facilitates a natural healing process.
No
The device description clearly states its purpose as "plate fixation fasteners in trauma and constructive procedures" for parts of the face and skull, which is a therapeutic rather than a diagnostic function.
No
The device description clearly describes physical screws and associated instrumentation, which are hardware components, not software.
Based on the provided text, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes the device as a physical implant (screws) used for plate fixation in surgical procedures on the craniofacial skeleton. This is a therapeutic and structural application, not a diagnostic one performed on in vitro samples.
- Device Description: The device description details the physical characteristics of the screws and their design, further reinforcing their role as a surgical implant.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens (blood, tissue, etc.) outside the body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
Therefore, this device falls under the category of a surgical implant or medical device used for treatment, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
Ø 1.5 and 2.0mm screw models of BioSorb™ FX and BioSorb™ PDX are used for plate fixation fasteners in trauma and constructive procedures in the midface and craniofacial skeleton. Specifically, the device is indicated for use in treating fractures of the craniofacial skeleton, including, but not limited to, comminuted fractures of the nasoethmoidal and infraorbital areas; comminuted fractures of the frontal sinus wall; orbital floor fractures; trauma of the midface or craniofacial skeleton and reconstructive procedures of the midface or craniofacial skeleton.
Ø 2.0 mm screw models of BioSorb™ FX can be used for plate fixation fasteners with BioSorb™ 2.0/2.4 O/M plates in trauma and reconstructive procedures in the midface, maxilla and mandible. Especially in mandible BioSorb™ FX 2.0/2.4 O/M System must be used in conjunction of appropriate maxillomandibular fixation (MMF).

Device Description
Originally the screw head design of Ø 1.5 and 2.0mm screw models of BioSorb™ FX and BioSorb™ PDX product families was designed as a crosshead screw. Further development of head design for easier insertion of 0 1.5mm and 2.0mm screw models continued and finally new head design with outer attachment of screw driver was finalized. The main purposes were improvement of installation properties without sacrificing torsion properties of the screw model.
The revision of head design has no effect on intended use, principles of operation, production methods, raw material or sterilization. The screw drivers are revised accordingly, but other parts of instrumentation are remaining unchanged.

Predicate Devices:
The predicate devices are the previously cleared Linvatec Biomaterials (the previous Bionx Implants) diameter 1.5mm and 2.0mm screw type fasteners, which are used with bioabsorbable plates of the same products families BioSorb™ FX 1.5/2.0 (K982139), BioSorb™ FX 2.0/2.4 O/M (K982721, K011569) and BioSorb™ PDX (K000836).

Substantial Equivalence:
The new Ø 1.5 and 2.0mm screw model has the following similarities to the cleared models of BioSorb™ FX 1.5/2.0 (K982139), BioSorb™ FX 2.0/2.4 O/M (K982721, K011569) and BioSorb™ PDX (K000836):
- has the same indicated use -
- uses the same operating principle -
- incorporates the same basic design of thread -
- utilizes the same basic dimensions -
- is manufactured by machining -
- is packaged and sterilized using the same materials and processes -
- has the same shelf life
In summary, the new head design described in this notification is, in our opinion, substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
