Intended Use
Syntec Osteo-plate and screw Fixation is intended to be used on small bones or large bones for fracture fixation, including the fractures of clavicle, scapula, pelvis, long bones (humerus, ulna, radius, femur, tibia, and fibula), and small bones (metacarpals, metatarsals, and phalanges).
Device Description
Those are designed with various sizes of partially and fully threaded to satisfy with different kinds of fractures as using on small bones or large bones. The subject components are plates available in width from 3.8mm to 17.5mm, in total length from 15mm to 319mm and the hole numbers are 2 to 22 holes. The threads of the screws are available in diameters from 2.4mm to 7.3mm, and in length from 6mm to 180mm. Those screws have been designed for fitting on different symptoms of fractures and the plates have been designed to distribute for local anatomies and should be necessary to be used with its intended screws. Basically, the screws used to fasten plates onto bone, or, as lag screws, to hold together fragments of bone. We have totally the same kinds of the screws and plates as the predicate devices' functions, but with self-tapping or self-drilling to promote the operation efficiency. Besides this, we have another alternative screws and plates which are designed with locking head of the screws taken place with the traditional screw head, and threaded aside locking hole of the plates taken place with the aside plain hole of the plates.

No
The device description focuses on the mechanical properties and design of bone plates and screws, with no mention of AI or ML capabilities.

No
The device is described as an osteo-plate and screw fixation system for fracture fixation, which is a structural support device rather than a device intended to treat or cure a disease or medical condition.

No
The device is described as a fixation system (plates and screws) for fracture fixation, which is a therapeutic rather than a diagnostic purpose.

No

The device description clearly details physical components (plates and screws) made of specific materials and dimensions, indicating a hardware medical device.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information about a person's health. This information is used for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Device Description: The description clearly states that the Syntec Osteo-plate and screw Fixation is a device used for fracture fixation on bones. It is a physical implant used to stabilize broken bones.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is to fix fractures in various bones of the body. This is a surgical procedure performed directly on the patient, not a test performed on a sample outside the body.

The information provided describes a surgical implant, not a diagnostic test performed on a biological sample.

§ 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.
