Intended Use
Merries K-PHATE is intended to be packed into bony defects of the skeletal system ( extremities, spine, or pelvis) which are not intrinsic to the stability of the bony structure. These defects may be surgically created voids or from traumatic injury to the bone. The device gradually resorbs and is replaced with bone during the healing process. Rigid fixation techniques should be used in conjunction with this device.
Device Description
Merries K-PHATE bone graft substitute is a microporous and macroporous biphasic calcium phosphate ceramic consisting of 60% hydroxyapatite and 40% ß-tricalcium phosphate. Merries K-PHATE is supplied sterile in various shapes and sizes. The choice of different form or size of the product depends on the type and size of the recipient site. Blocks and wedges are used for large bony defect while granules are used as bone filler for small area.
More Information

No
The summary describes a passive bone graft substitute material and does not mention any computational or analytical functions that would typically involve AI/ML.

Yes
The device is a bone graft substitute intended to gradually resorb and be replaced with bone during the healing process of bony defects, which directly contributes to the repair and healing of tissues, thus serving a therapeutic purpose.

No

Explanation: The device is a bone graft substitute intended to fill bony defects and resorb over time as new bone forms. It is a therapeutic device, not a diagnostic one, as it does not diagnose a condition but rather treats it.

No

The device description clearly states it is a biphasic calcium phosphate ceramic material supplied in various shapes and sizes, indicating it is a physical implant, not software.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that Merries K-PHATE is intended to be packed into bony defects of the skeletal system. This is a therapeutic and structural application within the body.
  • Device Description: The device is described as a bone graft substitute, a ceramic material implanted into the body.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Function: There is no mention of this device being used to test samples (like blood, urine, or tissue) outside of the body to diagnose a condition, monitor a treatment, or screen for diseases.

IVD devices are specifically designed to perform tests on samples taken from the human body to provide information for diagnostic purposes. Merries K-PHATE is an implantable medical device used for bone repair.
