No
The summary describes a mechanical intramedullary nail system and does not mention any software, algorithms, or AI/ML capabilities.
Yes
The device is indicated for the fixation of diaphyseal, metaphyseal, and epiphyseal fractures and small long bones, which are medical treatments.
No
The device is an intramedullary nail system used for fixation of bone fractures, which is a therapeutic rather than a diagnostic function.
No
The device description explicitly states it consists of "intramedullary fixation devices that vary in diameters and lengths," which are physical implants made of stainless steel. This is a hardware device, not software.
No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
- Device Description and Intended Use: The provided text clearly describes a surgical implant (intramedullary nail) used for fixing bone fractures. It is a physical device inserted into the body, not a test performed on a sample outside the body.
The information provided aligns with a medical device used for surgical intervention, not an in vitro diagnostic test.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The Synthes Elastic Intramedullary Nail (EIN) System is indicated for fixation of diaphyseal fractures where the canal is narrow or flexibility of the implant is paramount. This includes upper extremity fractures in all patients and lower extremity fractures in pediatric or small-stature patients. This system is also intended to treat metaphyseal and epiphyseal fractures, such as radial neck fractures and is intended for fixation of small long bones, such as carpal and tarsal bones. In pediatric applications, the flexibility of the EIN allows it to be inserted at a point which avoids disruption to the bone growth plate.

Device Description
The Synthes Stainless Steel Elastic Intramedullary Nail System consists of intramedullary fixation devices that vary in diameters and lengths, which can be cut to size intra-operatively. The nails have a curved tip to facilitate insertion and manipulation. The end cap is inserted over the external portion of the nail and threaded into the cancellous bone.

Dear Ms. Sherman:
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 practive, 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.
