The document describes a system of bone plates, screws, and accessories for fracture fixation and reconstruction. There is no mention of any software, algorithms, or data processing capabilities that would suggest the use of AI or ML. The performance studies focus on mechanical testing, not algorithmic performance.
Yes
The device is indicated for treatment of various bone conditions, including fracture fixation, reconstruction, and arthrodeses, which are therapeutic interventions.
No
This device is a plating and screw system intended for the treatment of musculoskeletal injuries through fixation, reconstruction, or arthrodeses, not for diagnosing medical conditions.
No
The device description explicitly lists physical components such as plates, screws, and wires, which are hardware.
Based on the provided text, 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 description clearly states that this device is a "Plating, Screw System and Accessories" used for "fracture fixation, reconstruction or arthrodeses of small bones." This involves surgically implanting hardware into the body to stabilize bones.
- Lack of Biological Sample Analysis: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples or performing any diagnostic tests on bodily fluids or tissues.
Therefore, this device falls under the category of a surgical implant or orthopedic device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic.

§ 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)
