No
The device description and performance studies focus on the mechanical properties and reprocessing of external fixation devices, with no mention of AI or ML.
Yes
The device is used for the "treatment of fractures, osteotomy, arthrodesis, correction of deformities, fracture revision, bone reconstruction procedures, limb lengthening, correction of bony or soft tissue deformities and segmental bony or soft tissue defects," which are therapeutic applications.
No
Explanation: The device description and intended use clearly state that external fixation devices are used for treatment and management of bone conditions and fractures, not for diagnosing them. They are surgical tools for skeletal stabilization and reconstruction.
No
The device description explicitly lists numerous hardware components (frames, clamps, rods, pins, etc.) made of metal alloys, plastic, and composites, indicating it is a physical medical device, not software-only.
No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health.
- Device Description and Intended Use: The description and intended use clearly state that this device is an external fixation device used for skeletal fixation and treatment of fractures, osteotomy, etc. This is a physical device applied to the body for structural support and correction, not for testing samples.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: The document does not mention any testing of biological samples, analysis of bodily fluids, or diagnostic purposes related to disease or condition identification through laboratory methods.
Therefore, based on the provided information, this device falls under the category of a surgical or orthopedic device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
Reprocessed external fixation devices are indicated for use in patients requiring external skeletal fixation and treatment of fractures, osteotomy, arthrodesis, correction of deformities, fracture revision, bone reconstruction procedures, limb lengthening, correction of bony or soft tissue deformities and segmental bony or soft tissue defects.

Device Description
External fixation devices are specially designed frames, clamps, rods, rod-to-rod couplings, pins, posts, fasteners, wire fixations, fixation bolts, washers, nuts, hinges, sockets, connecting bars and screws used for the management of bone fractures and reconstructive, as well as corrective, orthopedic surgery. Materials used include metal alloys, plastic and composites. These materials are chosen to address a wide range of fractures and applications as well as to allow for the appropriate amount of rigidity and stability.

§ 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.
