More Information

Not Found

No
The document describes a physical medical device (interference screws) and its intended use and performance testing, with no mention of software, algorithms, or AI/ML capabilities.

Yes
The device is used for the reattachment of ligament, tendon, or soft tissue to bone, which constitutes a therapeutic intervention aimed at restoring function and healing.

No

Explanation: The device, Smith & Nephew PEEK Interference Screws, is described as an implantable screw used for reattaching ligaments, tendons, or soft tissue to bone. Its indicated uses are for various surgical repairs and reconstructions in different anatomical sites. This function is therapeutic/reparative, not diagnostic.

No

The device description clearly states it is a physical interference screw made of PEEK material, which is a hardware component.

Based on the provided information, the Smith & Nephew PEEK Interference Screws are not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the screws are for the reattachment of ligament, tendon or soft tissue to bone during surgical procedures. This is a therapeutic and structural function within the body.
  • Device Description: The description confirms they are interference screws for use in fixation of grafts to bone. This describes a physical implant used to hold tissues in place.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens (like blood, tissue, or urine) outside of the body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.

IVD devices are used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body to provide information about a person's health. The Smith & Nephew PEEK Interference Screws are surgical implants used to repair and stabilize tissues within the body.

§ 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.
