No
The summary describes a mechanical fixation device (staples) and does not mention any software, algorithms, or AI/ML capabilities.

Yes
The device is described as an internal fixation system for fractures, osteotomies, and arthrodesis, which are therapeutic interventions.

No
The device, SBi StaFIX, is indicated for the fixation of fractures, osteotomies, and arthrodesis, and fixation of soft tissue to bone. These are therapeutic/surgical functions, not diagnostic ones.

No

The device description explicitly states it consists of "a set of stainless steel staples for internal fixation," which are physical hardware components.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states the device is for the "Fixation of fractures, osteotomies, and arthrodesis (fusion) in long and small bones" and "Fixation of soft tissue to bone." This describes a surgical implant used within the body for structural support and repair.
  • Device Description: The description confirms it's a "set of stainless steel staples for internal fixation." This further reinforces its use as an implant.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens in vitro (outside the body) to provide information about a physiological state, health, or disease. IVDs typically involve analyzing blood, urine, tissue samples, etc.

Therefore, the SBi StaFIX is a surgical implant, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

§ 888.3030 Single/multiple component metallic bone fixation appliances and accessories.

(a)
Identification. Single/multiple component metallic bone fixation appliances and accessories are devices intended to be implanted consisting of one or more metallic components and their metallic fasteners. The devices contain a plate, a nail/plate combination, or a blade/plate combination that are made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum, stainless steel, and titanium, that are intended to be held in position with fasteners, such as screws and nails, or bolts, nuts, and washers. These devices are used for fixation of fractures of the proximal or distal end of long bones, such as intracapsular, intertrochanteric, intercervical, supracondylar, or condylar fractures of the femur; for fusion of a joint; or for surgical procedures that involve cutting a bone. The devices may be implanted or attached through the skin so that a pulling force (traction) may be applied to the skeletal system.(b)
Classification. Class II.

Dear Mr. O'Connor:

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.
