No
The summary describes a mechanical external fixation device and its reprocessing. There is no mention of software, algorithms, or any technology that would suggest AI/ML is involved.
Yes
The device is described as an external fixation device 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 all therapeutic interventions.
No
Explanation: The device description and intended use clearly state that external fixation devices are used for treatment (e.g., managing bone fractures, reconstructive surgery) and not for diagnosing medical conditions.
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 Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information about a person's health. This is done outside of the body (in vitro).
- Device Description and Intended Use: The description and intended use clearly state that this device is used for external skeletal fixation and treatment of bone-related issues. This involves physically interacting with the bone within the body (in vivo).
- No Mention of Specimens or Analysis: The document does not mention the collection or analysis of any biological specimens.
Therefore, based on the provided information, this device is a surgical device used for orthopedic procedures, not an IVD.
N/A
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.

| Technological
characteristics: | The design, materials, and intended use of the Reprocessed
External Fixation Devices are identical to the predicate devices.
The mechanism of action of the Reprocessed External Fixation
Device is identical to the predicate devices in that the same
standard mechanical design, materials, shapes and sizes are
utilized. There are no changes to the claims, intended use,
clinical applications, patient population, performance
specifications, or method of operation. The only change is the
modified external fixation devices will be provided non-sterile.
Sterilization of the devices will occur in the hospital prior to use. |
