Intended Use
The Extremity Medical Screw System is intended for fixation arthrodesis of the metatarsalcuneiform, navicular-cuneiform, metatarsal-cuboid, talonavicular, calcaneocuboid, metatarsalphalangeal and metacarpal-phalangeal joints.
Device Description
The EXTREMITY MEDICAL Screw System consists of two metallic components a Metacarpal (distal) screw and a Lag Screw (proximal). The two components are designed to rigidly lock together to form an angle between the two components. The system includes common instrumentation for the application of surgical bone screws.
More Information

Not Found

No
The description focuses on mechanical components and surgical technique, with no mention of AI/ML terms or image processing. Performance studies are bench and cadaveric, not involving data analysis typical of AI/ML.

No
The device is described as a "screw system" intended for "fixation arthrodesis" of joints, which indicates it is an implant used for structural support and stabilization, not a device that directly administers therapy.

No
The provided text describes a screw system intended for fixation in joint fusion (arthrodesis), not for diagnosing a medical condition.

No

The device description explicitly states it consists of "two metallic components" and "common instrumentation for the application of surgical bone screws," indicating it is a hardware-based medical device.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
  • Device Description and Intended Use: The description clearly states that the Extremity Medical Screw System is a metallic implant intended for surgical fixation of specific joints in the foot and hand. This is a surgical device used in vivo (within the living body), not a test performed in vitro (in a lab setting).

The information provided describes a surgical implant and its intended use in orthopedic procedures, which falls under the category of medical devices, but not specifically in vitro diagnostics.

§ 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.

Dear Mr. Gannoe:

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. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.
