The Zimmer Periarticular Locking Plates and Screws are intended for internal fracture fixation. The low-profile periarticular locking plate is anatomically-contoured and has threaded holes which accept locking screws to create a stable, fixed-angle construct.
More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a mechanical implant for fracture fixation and does not mention any software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate AI/ML.

No.
The device is an orthopedic implant for internal fracture fixation, which is a structural support rather than a device delivering therapy.

No
Explanation: The device is described as a system for temporary internal fixation and stabilization of osteotomies and fractures, indicating it is an orthopedic implant for treatment, not diagnosis. The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states its purpose for "fixation and stabilization," which is a therapeutic function.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "Periarticular Locking Plate System" and describes physical components like "plates and screws" for internal fracture fixation. This indicates a hardware-based medical device.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states "temporary internal fixation and stabilization of osteotomies and fractures". This describes a surgical implant used within the body to stabilize bones.
  • Device Description: The description details "internal fracture fixation" using plates and screws. This is consistent with a surgical implant, not a device used to test samples outside the body.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), detecting diseases or conditions, or providing information for diagnosis or treatment decisions based on laboratory testing.

IVDs are devices used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. The Zimmer Periarticular Locking Plate System 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.
