Intended Use
The Synthes 2.4 mm / 2.7 mm Variable Angle LCP Forefoot / Midfoot System is indicated for fixation of osteotomies, fusions, fractures, nonunions, malunions and replantations of small bones and small bone fragments in adult and adolescent (12 - 21 years) patients, including the foot and ankle, and particularly in osteopenic bone.
Device Description
The Synthes 2.4/2.7 mm Variable Angle LCP Forefoot / Midfoot System consists of anatomic and procedure specific plates, including 1st MTP Fusion, TMT Fusion, Opening Wedge Osteotomy, X and Straight Fusion, Navicular, Cuboid, and Mesh Plates, with variable angle locking screws and cortex screws to aid in reconstructive foot surgery. The system components are offered in versions composed of implant grade stainless steel and titanium alloy.
More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a system of plates and screws for bone fixation and does not mention any AI/ML components or functions.

No.
This device is a surgical implant (plates and screws) used for fixation of bones, not for therapy or treatment of diseases.

No
The device is a system of plates and screws used for fixation in reconstructive foot surgery, not for diagnosing conditions. Its intended use is for treatment (fixation of osteotomies, fusions, fractures, etc.), not diagnosis.

No

The device description clearly states it consists of physical components like plates and screws made of stainless steel and titanium alloy, which are hardware.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes a surgical implant for fixing bones in the foot and ankle. This is a therapeutic device, not a diagnostic one.
  • Device Description: The description details plates and screws made of implant-grade materials, which are used in surgical procedures.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, tissue, etc.), detecting markers, or providing diagnostic information.

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 is a surgical implant used in the body for treatment.

§ 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.
