The summary describes a bone void filler material and its physical properties, with no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate AI/ML.
No.
The device is a bone void filler and is not described as providing therapy or treatment of a disease. It supports the healing process by providing a scaffold for bone repair.
No
The device, Actifuse, is described as a bone void filler used in orthopedic applications to fill gaps and voids in bones, and it resorbs to be replaced by bone during healing. Its function is to facilitate the healing process by providing a scaffold, not to diagnose a condition.
No
The device description clearly states it is a "phase-pure silicon-substituted hydroxylapatite osteoconductive bone void filler, comprising a single-phase calcium hydroxylapatite scaffold delivered in a matrix of resorbable polymer," which is a physical material, not software.
Based on the provided text, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that Actifuse is a "bone void filler intended only for orthopaedic applications as a filler for gaps and voids...". This describes a device used in vivo (within the body) to physically fill a space and promote bone healing.
- Device Description: The description details the composition and structure of the material itself, designed to be implanted.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue samples, etc.) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
IVD devices are used in vitro (outside the body) to analyze samples and provide diagnostic information. Actifuse is an implantable medical device used in vivo.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
Actifuse is a bone void filler intended only for orthopaedic applications as a filler for gaps and voids that are not intrinsic to the stability of the bony structure. Actifuse is indicated to be packed gently into bony voids or gaps of the skeletal system, i.e., extremities, pelvis, and spine, including use in posterolateral fusion procedures with appropriate stabilizing hardware. These defects may be surgically created osseous defects or osseous defects created from traumatic injury to the bone. The product provides a bone void filler that resorbs and is replaced by bone during the healing process.

Technological Characteristics and Substantial Equivalence
Actifuse™ ABX E-Z-fil Putty is composed of a porous calcium salt, hydroxylapatite, equivalent to that contained in both predicate devices and to that in routine clinical use. The technologies employed in Actifuse™ ABX E-Z-fil Putty and its predicate devices are therefore substantially equivalent. Actifuse™ ABX E-Z-fil Putty has the same indications, contraindications, risks and potential adverse events as the predicate devices, and thus substantial equivalence is claimed for the device.
Testing
Bench testing has shown Actifuse™ ABX E-Z-fil Putty to meet the requirements of all relevant standards for Calcium Salt Bone Void Fillers. Testing has confirmed Actifuse™ ABX E-Z-fil Putty to be safe and effective in providing a scaffold for rapid bone repair via bony infiltration of the porous scaffold.
