No
The 510(k) summary describes a system of screws and instruments for bone fixation, with no mention of software, algorithms, or any technology related to AI or ML.

Yes
The device, the Tiger Cannulated Screw Fixation System, is described as implants (screws) intended for fixation of fractures, non-unions, arthrodeses, and osteotomies of the small bones in the hand and foot. This direct therapeutic action (fixation) for medical conditions fulfills the definition of a therapeutic device.

No

Explanation: The device description states it is a "Cannulated Screw System" comprised of screws and instruments for "bone fixation of the hand and foot". This indicates a therapeutic or surgical purpose, not a diagnostic one.

No

The device description explicitly states it is comprised of screws and instruments, which are physical hardware components, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health.
  • Device Description: The Tiger Cannulated Screw Fixation System is a system of implants (screws) and instruments used for the fixation of bones within the hand and foot. This is a surgical device used within the body, not for testing samples outside the body.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is for the fixation of fractures, non-unions, arthrodeses and osteotomies of the small bones In the hand and foot. This is a therapeutic and structural purpose, not a diagnostic one.

The information provided clearly describes a surgical implant system, which falls under a different category of medical devices than IVDs.

§ 888.3040 Smooth or threaded metallic bone fixation fastener.

(a)
Identification. A smooth or threaded metallic bone fixation fastener is a device intended to be implanted that consists of a stiff wire segment or rod made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum and stainless steel, and that may be smooth on the outside, fully or partially threaded, straight or U-shaped; and may be either blunt pointed, sharp pointed, or have a formed, slotted head on the end. It may be used for fixation of bone fractures, for bone reconstructions, as a guide pin for insertion of other implants, or it may be implanted through the skin so that a pulling force (traction) may be applied to the skeletal system.(b)
Classification. Class II.

Dear Mr. Webb:

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.
