No
The 510(k) summary describes a mechanical external fixation system and contains no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or any other technology typically associated with AI/ML in medical devices.

Yes
It is intended to stabilize and provide treatment for fractures which is a therapeutic purpose.

No
The device is an external fixation system used to stabilize and treat fractures. Its primary function is therapeutic (stabilization) rather than diagnostic (identifying or characterizing a medical condition).

No

The device is described as an "External Fixation System" intended to stabilize fractures. This strongly implies a physical hardware device, not software. The lack of any mention of software in the description further supports this conclusion.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health. This includes tests for diagnosis, monitoring, screening, and prognosis.
  • Device Description and Intended Use: The description and intended use of the Stryker® External Fixation System clearly state that it is a device used to stabilize and treat fractures directly on the patient's body. It is a surgical implant/device used for mechanical support and fixation of bones.
  • No Mention of Specimens or Testing: There is no mention of analyzing biological specimens or performing any kind of diagnostic test on samples taken from the body.

Therefore, based on the provided information, the Stryker® External Fixation System is a surgical device used for external fixation, not an In Vitro Diagnostic.
