Intended Use
The MaxLock Small Bone System is indicated for the repair of osteotomies and fractures of: - Phalanges of the hands and feet. . - Metacarpals and metatarsals. . - Carpals and tarsal bones. . - The wrist and ankle and, . - Arthrodesis of the hands, wrists, foot and ankle. .
Device Description
The Maxlock System includes ten (10) fixation plates and 38 screws. Plates vary in size, number of holes and in configuration. Screws vary in size by diameter and length. All plates and screws in the Maxlock System are made from Titanium Ti-6Al-4V ELI Alloy. This material conforms with ASTM F-136 Standard Specification for Wrought Titanium 6AI-4V ELI Alloy for Surgical Implant Applications. The unique X-Cross Profile and curvature of the plates are intended to better match the patients' anatomy. All edges are beveled to minimize wear on surrounding soft tissue and ligaments. The plates are contourable during surgery, to allow a better fit to the profile of bone. Plate holes are counter-sunk to lower the profile of the screw head and help minimize wear on the surrounding soft tissue and ligaments.
More Information

Not Found

No
The description focuses on the mechanical properties and design of the plates and screws, with no mention of AI or ML capabilities.

Yes
The device is indicated for the repair of osteotomies and fractures, and arthrodesis, which are therapeutic interventions.

No

The device description clearly states its purpose is for "fixation plates and screws" used in the "repair of osteotomies and fractures," which are therapeutic/treatment functions, not diagnostic.

No

The device description explicitly states that the Maxlock System includes physical components such as fixation plates and screws made from Titanium alloy. This indicates it is a hardware-based medical device, not software-only.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health. This is done outside of the body (in vitro).
  • Device Description: The MaxLock Small Bone System is a collection of plates and screws made of titanium. These are implanted into the body to repair bones.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is to repair osteotomies and fractures and perform arthrodesis of bones in the hands, wrists, feet, and ankles. This is a surgical procedure performed inside the body.

The description clearly indicates that this is a surgical implant used for structural support and repair within the body, not a device used to analyze samples outside the body.

§ 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.
