No
The device description and intended use focus on the mechanical properties and surgical applications of a cable system made of titanium or stainless steel. There is no mention of software, algorithms, or any features that would suggest the use of AI or ML. The performance studies are non-clinical and focus on functional equivalence, not algorithmic performance.
No.
The device is a cable system used for reattachment and wiring in various surgical applications, primarily providing mechanical support rather than directly treating a disease or condition. It is an implantable medical device designed to secure and stabilize structures.
No
The provided text describes the Biomet® Cable System as a surgical implant used for securing bones and other implants, not for diagnosing medical conditions.
No
The device description explicitly states the system consists of physical components made of titanium or stainless steel (cable, crimp, instruments like tensioner, crimper, and cutter). This is a hardware-based medical device.
No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health. This testing is done outside of the body.
- Biomet® Cable System Function: The description clearly states that the Biomet® Cable System is an implantable device used for surgical procedures to secure bones and other implants within the body. It is used in vivo (within the living body).
- Intended Use: The intended use describes surgical applications for spinal, hip, sternum, and trauma surgeries. This is a direct surgical intervention, not a diagnostic test performed on a specimen.
- Device Description: The device is a cable system made of titanium or stainless steel, designed to be implanted and secured with crimps. This is a surgical implant, not a diagnostic instrument or reagent.
The information provided about the device's intended use, device description, and lack of any mention of analyzing biological specimens confirms that it is a surgical implant and not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The Biomet® Cable System is indicated for use whenever a conservative or non-implant surgery is deemed insufficient to improve the medical condition of the patient. The System can be utilized anywhere monofilament wire has been previously indicated.
-
- Spinal applications include spinal degenerative surgery, as an adjunct to spinal fusions and sublaminar and intraspinous process wiring for trauma applications. The Biomet® Cable System may also be used with instrumentation involving the correction of scoliotic, kyphotic, and lordotic deformities. The titanium system is compatible with other titanium implants and the stainless steel system with stainless steel implants, wherever "wiring" may help secure the attachment of other implants.
-
- Trochanteric reattachment after trochanteric osteotomy, following total hip arthroplasty.
-
- Sternotomy indications include the "re-wiring" of sternums following osteotomy.
-
- Trauma surgery indications include olecranon, ankle, patella, and some shoulder fracture rewiring.

Device Description
The Biomet® Cable System is available in either titanium or stainless steel, consisting of a flexible, multi-strand, medical grade titanium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V, ASTM F-136) or a medical grade stainless steel (316LVM, ASTM F-138) cable. The systems are available in both single and double styles. The cable is locked into place via a pre-loaded crimp. Instruments for the Biomet® Cable System include a Cable Tensioner, a Cable Crimper, and a Cable Cutter. The titanium system is compatible with other medical grade implants made of titanium and the stainless steel system is compatible with other stainless steel implants, whenever "wiring" may help secure the attachment of other implants.

Dear Ms. Earl:
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.
Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies 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.
