No
The device description and intended use are purely mechanical, describing plates and screws for surgical fixation. There is no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate AI/ML.
Yes.
The device is an arthrodesis plate system designed for the fusion of bones in the ankle, which is a therapeutic intervention for certain conditions.
No
The device is described as an ankle fusion plate system intended for arthrodesis and treatment of fractures, osteotomies, fusions, and replantations. These are surgical interventions, not diagnostic procedures.
No
The device description clearly states it consists of physical plates and screws made of stainless steel or titanium, which are hardware components.
No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health. This information is used for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
- Device Description: The Ascension Ankle Fusion Plate System is a system of plates and screws designed to be surgically implanted to fuse bones in the ankle and foot. It is a physical implant used within the body, not a device that analyzes samples outside the body.
- Intended Use: The intended use is for surgical procedures like arthrodesis, fracture repair, and fusions. This is a therapeutic and structural function, not a diagnostic one based on analyzing biological samples.
The information provided clearly describes a surgical implant, which falls under the category of medical devices but not specifically In Vitro Diagnostics.

Device Description
The Ascension® Ankle Fusion Plate System consists of two anterior tibia-talus and a lateral tibia-talus-calcaneus arthrodesis plates. The plates are contoured to the peri articular anatomy and have tapered threaded holes which accept compression or locking threaded screws with a maior thread diameter of 4.5 or 6.5mm. All plates and screws will be manufactured from stainless steel or titanium.

§ 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.

K061940 - Synthes LCP Ankle Arthrodesis Plates K060473 - Integra Advansys Lateral Tibio-Talar-Calcaneal Plate K073375 - Integra Tibiaxys
DEVICE DESCRIPTION:
The Ascension® Ankle Fusion Plate System consists of two anterior tibia-talus and a lateral tibia-talus-calcaneus arthrodesis plates. The plates are contoured to the peri articular anatomy and have tapered threaded holes which accept compression or locking threaded screws with a maior thread diameter of 4.5 or 6.5mm. All plates and screws will be manufactured from stainless steel or titanium.
INTENDED USE:
The Ascension Ankle Fusion Plate System is intended for the following:
-
Arthrodesis of the ankle joint and distal tibia
-
Fractures, osteotomies, fusions, and replantations of small bones in the foot and ankle.
SUMMARY OF TECHNOLOGIES:
The technological characteristics of the Ascension Ankle Fusion Plate System are the same, or similar to other leqally marketed predicate devices. The Synthes LCP ankle
1
Arthrodesis (K061940), the Integra Advansys System (K060473), and Integra Tibiaxys have similar designs, same materials and indications.
SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE:
Ascension Orthopedics believes that this system is substantially equivalent to the legally marketed predicate devices based on similarities in design, materials and indications.
Due to the similarity of materials and design to both pre-enactment and postenactment devices, it is believed that the Ankle Fusion Plate System does not raise any new safety or effectiveness issues and does not require any nonclinical testing. A comparison of dimensions/sizing addressing worst-case plates between the Ascension Ankle Fusion Plate System and the predicate devices was presented to support substantial equivalence.
