No
The summary describes a mechanical bone fixation system and does not mention any AI or ML components or functionalities.

No

Explanation: The device is a bone fixation system for post-craniotomy bone flaps, which is a supportive and structural device rather than one that treats or cures a disease or condition. It is intended to fix a bone flap, not to provide therapy.

No
The device is a fixation system used post-craniotomy to secure bone flaps, not to diagnose medical conditions. Its function is purely mechanical.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "long-term implantable device" and a "biocompatible, postoperative cranial bone fixation system," indicating it is a physical hardware device.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is "post-craniotomy bone flap fixation." This describes a surgical procedure to fix a bone flap to the skull, which is a direct treatment or repair of a physical structure within the body.
  • Device Description: The device is described as a "long-term implantable device" and a "cranial bone fixation system." This further reinforces its role as a physical implant used in surgery.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. The provided description does not mention any interaction with bodily specimens for diagnostic purposes.

Therefore, the Cranial LOOP Cranial Bone Fixation System is a surgical implant, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.
