Device Description
Beta-bsm Injectable Bone Substitute Material is a synthetic, biocompatible bone graft substitute material. At the time of use, the powder component is combined with a specified volume of mixing solution and mixed to form a paste. Mixing is facilitated by a syringe-to-syringe mixing system. The resulting paste can be administered to the treatment site by injection or manual application. The material can be shaped into a desired form in-situ prior to implantation. After the paste is applied to the treatment site, it hardens at body temperature and converts to an apatitic calcium phosphate material. The end product, poorly crystalline hydroxyapatite (PCHA), is of low crystalline order with a similar chemical and crystalline structure to that of natural bone minerals. Beta-bsm Injectable Bone Substitute Material is an osteoconductive material that is resorbed and replaced by natural bone over time. Gamma-bsm Moldable Bone Substitute Material is a synthetic, biocompatible bone graft substitute material. At the time of use, the powder component is combined with a specified volume of mixing solution and mixed to form a putty. The resulting putty is administered to the treatment site by manual application. The material can be shaped into a desired form in-situ prior to implantation. After the putty is applied to the treatment site, it hardens at body temperature and converts to an apatitic calcium phosphate end product, poorly crystalline hydroxyapatite (PCHA), is of low crystalline order with a similar chemical and crystalline structure to that of natural bone minerals. Gamma-bsm Moldable Bone Substitute Material is an osteoconductive material that is resorbed and replaced by natural bone over time. CarriGen Porous Bone Substitute Material is a synthetic, biocompatible bone graft substitute material. At the time of use, the powder component is combined with a specified volume of mixing solution and mixed to form a putty. The resulting putty is administered to the treatment site by manual application. The material can be shaped into a desired form in-situ prior to implantation. After the putty is applied to the treatment site, it hardens at body temperature and converts to an apatitic calcium phosphate material. The end product, poorly crystalline hydroxyapatite (PCHA), is of low crystalline order with a similar chemical and crystalline structure to that of natural bone minerals. CarriGen Porous Carrier Bone Substitute Material is an osteoconductive material that is resorbed and replaced by natural bone over time. EquivaBone is a biocompatible bone graft substitute material consisting of synthetic calcium phosphate, carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) and human demineralized bone matrix (DBM). It is supplied in a single use kit as sterile powders and hydration solution that are mixed together at the time of use in the operating room to form flowable putty which is implanted manually or can be extruded through a syringe. After implantation the product hardens at body temperature and resorbs and remodels during the healing process. Each lot of DBM contained within EquivaBone is assayed for osteoinductive potential in an athymic nude mouse model. This may or may not be predictive of EquivaBone osteoinductivity in humans.
More Information

Not Found

No
The document describes bone graft substitute materials and their physical properties and intended use. There is no mention of any computational or analytical functions that would involve AI or ML.

Yes

These devices are bone graft substitutes intended to fill bone voids or defects, which directly addresses a medical condition (bone defects) and aids in the healing process by being replaced with new bone.

No

Explanation: The device is described as an implantable bone graft substitute material intended for filling bone voids or defects, and it resorbs and is replaced by new bone during healing. Its function is to facilitate bone regeneration, not to diagnose a condition.

No

The device descriptions clearly indicate that these are physical bone substitute materials supplied as powders and solutions that are mixed and implanted. There is no mention of software as the primary component or function.

Based on the provided text, these devices are not In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) devices.

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use for all listed devices is to fill bone voids or defects in the skeletal system. This is a therapeutic application, not a diagnostic one. IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes.
  • Device Description: The descriptions detail the composition and physical properties of the materials, how they are prepared and implanted, and how they function within the body (resorption and replacement with new bone). This aligns with the description of an implantable medical device, not a device used for in vitro testing.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples, detecting analytes, or providing diagnostic information.

Therefore, these devices are classified as implantable bone graft substitutes, which are medical devices used for surgical procedures, not IVDs.
