The device description focuses on the mechanical components and materials of a fracture fixation system. There is no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate the use of AI or ML. The "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML" and "Description of the training set..." sections are explicitly marked as "Not Found".
No
The device is a fracture fixation intramedullary rod designed to stabilize bone fractures, which is a structural support device rather than a device that provides therapy for a disease or condition.
No.
The device description indicates it is an intramedullary rod used for fracture fixation, which is a treatment modality, not a diagnostic one.
No
The device description clearly outlines a physical implantable medical device (intramedullary rod, screws, etc.) made of titanium alloy, not a software-only product.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is to stabilize fractures of the tibia. This is a surgical procedure performed directly on the patient's body.
- Device Description: The device is an intramedullary rod and screws made of titanium alloy, designed for internal fixation of bones.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: An IVD is a medical device used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health. This device does not perform any such tests. It is a surgical implant.
Therefore, the I.T.S. CONNEXX Locking Tibia Nail is a surgical implant, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
The intended use of the I.T.S. CONNEXX Locking Tibia Nail is to stabilize fractures of the proximal and distal tibia and the tibial shaft in a pediatric or adult patient. Indications for use include open and closed tibial shaft fractures; certain pre and post-isthmic fractures, tibial malunions and non-unions, corrective osteotomies, pathologic fractures, pseudoarthrosis of the tibial shaft, metaphyseal and epiphyseal fractures, transverse fractures, oblique fractures, spiral fractures, segmental fractures, comminuted fractures, bone support, and fractures with bone loss.
Indications for use include open and closed tibial shaft fractures; certain pre and post-isthmic fractures, tibial malunions and non-unions, corrective osteotomies, pathologic fractures, pseudoarthrothis of the tibial shaft, mataphyseal and epiphyseal fractures, transverse fractures, oblique fractures, spiral fractures, segmental fractures, comminuted fractures, bone transport, and fractures with bone loss.

Device Description
The I.T.S. CONNEXX Locking Tibia Nail is a fracture fixation intramedullary rod with locking/nonlocking cross-screw fixation for repairing long bone tibia fractures of a patient. The I.T.S. CONNEXX Locking Tibia Nail System is composed of a cannulated 9mm and 10mm diameter nail in various lengths (255mm to 420mm in 15mm increments) and two styles of cross-screw attachments, a 4.7mm standard cortical screw as a non-locking feature and a 4.7mm Bolt Double Thread as a non-locking feature (two thread diameters on the screw for thread engagement into the proximal and distal cortex of the tibial shaft when inserted). A cannulated 'locking key sleeve' and 'end cap' combination function to firmly fix the above two cross-screw attachments to the 9mm or 10mm nail for 'locking' the cross-screws to the tibia nail - thus making the entire IM rod/cross-screw assembly 'angle-stable locking'. All tibial rods and cross-screws are composed of high strength 6-4 ELI Titanium Alloy to ASTM F-136. A full compliment of instrumentation is available for use with the system. Proper alignment instrumentation is incorporated for proper postioning of the locking screw to screw hole in the IM rod -- along with the assistance of X-ray Fluoroscopy.

§ 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.
