No
The document describes a mechanical external fixation system and does not mention any AI or ML components.
Yes.
The device is used for fracture fixation, correction of deformities, and limb lengthening, which directly treat medical conditions.
No
The device is an external fixation system used for fracture fixation, limb lengthening, and correction of bone deformities, which are therapeutic and reconstructive procedures, not diagnostic ones.
No
The device description explicitly states it includes "specially designed components" and "components include fail Sognions, pir dainter, al." which are physical hardware parts of an external fixation system.
Based on the provided text, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes a device used for surgical procedures on patients (fracture fixation, limb lengthening, deformity correction). This is a therapeutic and structural device, not a diagnostic one.
- Device Description: The description details components of an external fixation system used in orthopedic surgery. This aligns with the surgical intended use.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens derived from the human body (blood, tissue, etc.) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
IVD devices are used in vitro (outside the body) to analyze samples for diagnostic purposes. This device is used in vivo (inside or on the body) for treatment and structural support.

§ 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)
Classification. Class II.

Dear Ms. Sejnowski:
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.
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.
