Intended Use
The Latarjet Cortical Screw Set is intended to provide the orthopedic surgeon a means of bone fixation and to assist in the management of fractures and reconstructive surgeries.
Device Description
The Latariet Cortical Screw Set consists of an implantable fixation screw which is used for fixation of bone grafts or bone fragments to cortical bone in shoulder surgeries. The fixation screws are offered in the following overall range of length: 36mm - 48mm. (features- other than the overall length- are identical on all). The set also includes a threaded bushing which attaches to the proximal end of the fixation screw. Its purpose is to position the screw firmly and safely during the fixation procedure. The bushing is provided in one size. The fixation screw and bushing are supplied in either in Titanium alloy or Stainless Steel. The Latarjet Cortical Screw Set is supplied nonsterile, for single patient use.
More Information

No
The device description and intended use are purely mechanical, describing a set of screws and a bushing for bone fixation. There is no mention of software, algorithms, image processing, or any terms related to AI/ML. The "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML" section explicitly states "Not Found".

No
The device is described as an implantable fixation screw used for bone fixation in reconstructive surgeries and fracture management, which is a structural/supportive function rather than a therapeutic one.

No

Explanation: The device description states its purpose is for "bone fixation and to assist in the management of fractures and reconstructive surgeries" by providing an "implantable fixation screw." This describes a therapeutic or surgical device, not one used for diagnosis. There is no mention of it acquiring, processing, or analyzing patient data to identify a condition or disease.

No

The device description clearly states it consists of implantable fixation screws and a threaded bushing, 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 is for "bone fixation and to assist in the management of fractures and reconstructive surgeries." This is a surgical procedure performed directly on the patient's body.
  • Device Description: The device is an "implantable fixation screw" used for "fixation of bone grafts or bone fragments to cortical bone in shoulder surgeries." This is a physical implant used to stabilize bone.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, tissue) in vitro (outside the body) to provide information about a patient's health status, diagnose, monitor, or screen for diseases.

IVD devices are used to perform tests on samples taken from the body, not to physically fix or repair structures within the body. This device is clearly a surgical implant.

§ 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.
