The device description focuses on the mechanical components (nails and screws) and their material. There is no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate the use of AI/ML. The "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML" and "Mentions image processing" fields are explicitly marked as "Not Found".
Yes
The device is intended to provide temporary stabilization for various types of humeral fractures, which is a therapeutic intervention.
No
The Aequalis Humeral Nail System is an orthopedic implant designed to stabilize fractures, not to diagnose medical conditions.
No
The device description explicitly states that the system includes intramedullary nails and screws, 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 that the device is for "temporary stabilization of various types of proximal and/or diaphyseal fractures of the humerus." This is a surgical intervention for treating bone fractures.
- Device Description: The description details an "intramedullary nail" and "screws" made of metal, designed to be implanted within the bone. This is a physical implant used in surgery.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue, etc.) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
IVD devices are used in vitro (outside the body) to analyze biological samples. This device is used in vivo (inside the body) as a surgical implant.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The Aequalis Humeral Nail System is intended to provide temporary stabilization of various types of proximal and/or diaphyseal fractures of the humerus. Types of fractures include, but are not limited to, non-unions, malalignments, pathological fractures, and impending pathological fractures. Examples of specific indications according to AO classification include Type A-Fractures, dislocated, Type B Fractures, dislocated, Type C-Fractures, with intact calotte, or Humeral Fractures according to Neer-Classification (2, 3 and 4 part fractures).

Device Description
The Aequalis Humeral Nail System includes intramedullary nails and screws. The Aequalis Humeral Nail is a straight, cannulated intramedullary nail with a 9mm proximal diameter and a distal diameter that tapers from 8mm to 5mm. It is 130mm long and is available in right and left configurations. The proximal end of the nail contains screw holes in four axes for proximal locking using 5mm cannulated screws. The proximal end of the nail also contains a cannulated polyethylene insert with screw holes aligned with those of the nail. This insert is intended to help prevent the proximal screws from backing out. The distal end of the nail incorporates one slot and one screw hole for distal locking using 4.5mm screws. The nail and screws are manufactured from anodized Ti-6Al-4V alloy.
