No
The summary describes a mechanical implant (screw) and its intended use with a nail system. There is no mention of software, algorithms, image processing, AI, ML, or performance studies related to such technologies.
No
The device is a screw used for fracture fixation, which is a structural support rather than a therapeutic intervention that actively treats a disease or condition.
No
The provided text describes the Synthes TFN Screw as a component of a fixation system intended to treat and stabilize fractures, not to diagnose them. Its function is to provide stabilization, which is a therapeutic action, not a diagnostic one.
No
The device description explicitly states it is a "threaded component composed of titanium alloy," indicating it is a physical hardware device, not software.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes a surgical implant used to treat bone fractures. This is a therapeutic device, not a diagnostic one.
- Device Description: The description details a threaded component made of titanium alloy for stabilizing fractures. This aligns with a surgical implant.
- Lack of Diagnostic Elements: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), detecting diseases or conditions, or providing information for diagnosis.
IVD devices are used to examine specimens from the human body to provide information for the diagnosis, prevention, or treatment of a disease or condition. This device does not fit that description.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
As part of the Synthes Trochanteric Fixation Nail (TFN) System, the Synthes TFN Screw is intended to treat stable and unstable fractures of the proximal femur including pertrochanteric fractures, intertrochanteric fractures, basal neck fractures, and combinations thereof. The Long TFN is additionally indicated for subtrochanteric fractures, pertrochanteric fractures associated with shaft fractures, pathologic fractures (including prophylactic use) in both trochanteric and diaphyseal regions, long subtrochanteric fractures, proximal or distal non-unions, malunions, and revisions.

Dear Mr. Nittinger:
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.
