No
The summary describes a mechanical implant (plates and screws) and makes no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or any software-driven analytical capabilities.

No
The device is a metallic implant used for internal fixation of small bone fractures, which is a structural support device rather than a therapeutic device that delivers treatment or therapy.

No

Explanation: The device is a plate and screw system for treating fractures, which is a therapeutic function, not a diagnostic one. It does not provide information about the presence, absence, or state of a disease or condition.

No

The device description clearly states it consists of physical plates and screws, which are hardware components.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health. This information is used for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Device Description: The Synthes LCP Modular Foot Plates are described as implants used to treat bone fractures and other orthopedic conditions. They are physically implanted into the body.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is for surgical procedures on bones, not for analyzing biological samples.

The information provided clearly indicates this is a surgical implant, not a device used for laboratory testing of biological specimens.

§ 888.3030 Single/multiple component metallic bone fixation appliances and accessories.

(a)
Identification. Single/multiple component metallic bone fixation appliances and accessories are devices intended to be implanted consisting of one or more metallic components and their metallic fasteners. The devices contain a plate, a nail/plate combination, or a blade/plate combination that are made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum, stainless steel, and titanium, that are intended to be held in position with fasteners, such as screws and nails, or bolts, nuts, and washers. These devices are used for fixation of fractures of the proximal or distal end of long bones, such as intracapsular, intertrochanteric, intercervical, supracondylar, or condylar fractures of the femur; for fusion of a joint; or for surgical procedures that involve cutting a bone. The devices may be implanted or attached through the skin so that a pulling force (traction) may be applied to the skeletal system.(b)
Classification. Class II.
