Intended Use
The Synthes (USA) Rapid Resorbable Fixation System is intended for use in fracture repair and reconstructive procedures of the craniofacial skeleton in pediatric and adult populations. In addition, resorbable meshes, sheets, screws and tacks may be used in non-load bearing applications for maintaining the relative position of, and /or containing, bony fragments, bone grafts, (autograft or allograft), or bone graft substitutes in reconstruction of the craniofacial or mandibular areas.
Device Description
The Synthes Rapid Resorbable Fixation System consists of Plates, Meshes, Sheets, Screws and Tacks. The system is provided in a variety of shapes and sizes and, when used in conjunction with resorbable screws, the system provides fixation and aids in the alignment and stabilization of craniofacial bones. To facilitate shaping to the contours of the anatomy, the thermoplastic implants may be heated above the glass transition temperature of 55°C or they may be cut to the desired shape.

No
The provided text describes a system of physical implants and tools for surgical fixation, with no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate the use of AI or ML.

No
The device aids in fracture repair and reconstructive procedures by providing fixation and aiding in alignment and stabilization, but it does not directly treat a disease or condition for therapeutic purposes.

No

Explanation: The device is described as a fixation system used for fracture repair and reconstructive procedures. Its components (plates, meshes, sheets, screws, tacks) are used to provide fixation and aid in alignment and stabilization, which points to a therapeutic or supportive function rather than a diagnostic one. There is no mention of it being used to identify or analyze a medical condition.

No

The device description explicitly states that the system consists of physical components like Plates, Meshes, Sheets, Screws, and Tacks, which are hardware implants.

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. They are used outside the body (in vitro).
  • Device Description and Intended Use: The description clearly states that the Synthes Rapid Resorbable Fixation System is used for fracture repair and reconstructive procedures of the craniofacial skeleton. This involves implanting devices within the body to provide structural support and fixation.

The device is a surgical implant used for internal fixation, which is a completely different category of medical device than an IVD.

Dear Mr. Dow:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations. Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
