More Information

Not Found

No
The device description and intended use are for a mechanical plate and screw system for fracture fixation, with no mention of software, algorithms, or AI/ML capabilities.

No.
The device is used for temporary internal fixation and stabilization of osteotomies and fractures, which describes a surgical aid or an implant, not a therapeutic device.

No
Explanation: This device is a periarticular locking plate system used for internal fracture fixation and stabilization, not for diagnosing medical conditions. Its intended use is to treat fractures, not to identify them.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "plate and screw system intended for internal fracture fixation," which are physical hardware components.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states "temporary internal fixation and stabilization of osteotomies and fractures". This describes a surgical implant used to physically stabilize bone, not a test performed on samples taken from the body to diagnose a condition.
  • Device Description: The description details a "plate and screw system intended for internal fracture fixation". This further reinforces its role as a surgical implant.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The document 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 those samples
    • Providing information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening

This device is a surgical implant used for orthopedic fixation.

§ 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.
