The summary describes a mechanical sternal closure system and does not mention any AI or ML components or functionalities.
Yes
The device is intended for "closure/repair of the sternum following sternotomy or fracture of the sternum to stabilize the sternum and promote fusion," which clearly indicates a therapeutic purpose.
No
Explanation: The device description states its purpose is for "primary or secondary closure/repair of the sternum following sternotomy or fracture of the sternum to stabilize the sternum and promote fusion." This describes a therapeutic or corrective action, not the identification or diagnosis of a condition.
No
The device description explicitly states it consists of an implantable titanium alloy clamp and an applicator instrument, which are hardware components.
Based on the provided information, the Aesculap SternumFix Sternal Closure System is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it's for the "closure/ repair of the sternum following sternotomy or fracture of the sternum to stabilize the sternum and promote fusion." This describes a surgical implant used in vivo (within the body) for structural support and healing.
- Device Description: The device is described as an "implantable single use clamp made of titanium alloy." This further confirms its nature as a surgical implant.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: IVD devices are used in vitro (outside the body) to examine specimens (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. The provided description contains none of these elements.
Therefore, the Aesculap SternumFix Sternal Closure System is a surgical implant, not an IVD.

TECHNOLIGICAL CHARACTERISTICS (compared to Predicate(s))
The design of the clamp and the applier are based upon the proven design features of the Aesculap CranioFix clamp and applier. The implant material (TiAl4V6) is the same as that used in the CranioFix implant. The packaging and sterilization are the same as that used for CranioFix as well. The efficacy of the SternumFix was compared to that of the current standard of care: wire cerclage fixation (Ethicon SS Suture). The indicated use for this device is similar to that of the Synthes Sternal Fixation System.
PERFORMANCE DATA
Mechanical testing of the SternumFix and the predicate Ethicon Stainless Steel proved the efficacy of the new device.

Dear Mr. Hull:
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.
