Intended Use
The Lagwire is indicated for use in the general management of fractures and reconstructive surgery.
Device Description
The Lagwire fixation system consists of two (2) main components, a wire and a cap. The Lagwire materials are Titanium 6Al-4V alloy, which meets the requirements of ASTM F-136. It is available as 4.5 mm diameter device and is obtainable in various length ranges. The Lagwire is provided sterile and intended for single use only.
More Information

No
The summary describes a mechanical fixation device made of titanium, with no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate AI/ML.

Yes
The device is indicated for "general management of fractures and reconstructive surgery," which are therapeutic interventions.

No

Explanation: The Lagwire is described as a fixation system used in the general management of fractures and reconstructive surgery, indicating it is a therapeutic device rather than a diagnostic one. Its components (wire and cap) and materials (Titanium 6Al-4V alloy) are consistent with a surgical implant for stabilization or repair, not for identifying a condition or disease.

No

The device description clearly states it consists of a wire and a cap made of Titanium alloy, which are physical hardware components.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is "for use in the general management of fractures and reconstructive surgery." This describes a surgical device used directly on the patient's body to fix bones.
  • Device Description: The description details a physical implantable device made of titanium, consisting of a wire and a cap. This is consistent with a surgical implant, not a diagnostic test performed on samples outside the body.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), detecting specific analytes, or providing diagnostic information about a patient's health status.

IVDs are devices used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. The Lagwire does not fit this description.

§ 888.3040 Smooth or threaded metallic bone fixation fastener.

(a)
Identification. A smooth or threaded metallic bone fixation fastener is a device intended to be implanted that consists of a stiff wire segment or rod made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum and stainless steel, and that may be smooth on the outside, fully or partially threaded, straight or U-shaped; and may be either blunt pointed, sharp pointed, or have a formed, slotted head on the end. It may be used for fixation of bone fractures, for bone reconstructions, as a guide pin for insertion of other implants, or it may be implanted through the skin so that a pulling force (traction) may be applied to the skeletal system.(b)
Classification. Class II.

Dear Mr. Lipschutz:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the devices referenced above and have determined the devices are 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 devices, 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 devices are classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), they may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your devices can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your devices in the Federal Register.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your devices comply with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); good manufacturing practice requirements as set

forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.

This letter will allow you to begin marketing your devices as described in your Section 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your devices to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your devices and thus, permits your devices to proceed to the market.

If you desire specific advice for your devices on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801), please contact the Office of Compliance at (240) 276-0120. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21CFR Part 807.97). You may obtain other general information on your responsibilities under the Act from the Division of Small Manufacturers, International and Consumer Assistance at its toll-free number (800) 638-2041 or (240) 276-3150 or at its Internet address http://www.fda.gov/cdrh/industry/support/index.html.
