No
The device description focuses on the material composition and mechanical properties of a resorbable screw for ACL reconstruction, with no mention of AI or ML capabilities.
Yes
The device is used for the fixation of grafts in anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction, which is a therapeutic intervention.
No
The Intended Use / Indications for Use and Device Description state that LIGAFIX® interference screws are designed for the interference fixation of grafts in anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. There is no mention of diagnosing conditions, only aiding in treatment.
No
The device description clearly states it is a physical screw made of ceramic and polymer, intended for surgical implantation. It is not software.
No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states "interference fixation of grafts in anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction." This is a surgical procedure performed directly on the patient's body.
- Device Description: The device is a physical screw made of a ceramic/polymer composite, designed to be implanted into bone.
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are devices used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) taken from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device does not interact with such specimens.
The information provided describes a surgical implant, not a diagnostic test performed outside 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.
