No
The description focuses on the mechanical design and function of a bone plate for fracture fixation, with no mention of AI or ML technologies.
No
This device is a surgical plate used for fixation of fractures and osteotomies, providing mechanical stabilization rather than a therapeutic effect on the body's physiological processes.
No
The device is a plate intended for surgical fixation of bone fractures, which is a therapeutic rather than a diagnostic function.
No
The device description clearly describes a physical plate intended for surgical implantation, which is a hardware component, not software.
No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states "volar fixation of fractures and osteotomies involving the distal radius." This describes a surgical implant used to stabilize bone, not a test performed on samples taken from the body to diagnose a condition.
- Device Description: The description details a physical plate and screws designed for surgical implantation and fixation of bone. This is characteristic of a surgical device, not an IVD.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: The document does not mention any of the typical features of an IVD, such as:
- Analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
- Detecting or measuring substances in those samples
- Providing information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening of diseases or conditions
This device is a surgical implant used for orthopedic fixation.

Device Description
The Contours VPS is an anatomically contoured, delta-shaped plate intended for volar applications to the distal radius. The Contours VPS features an angled head with two rows of holes for placement of screws distally on the radius to secure bone fragments and provide stabilization. If a bone graft is required, access to the site is made possible by the opening in the plate that spans from the plate head to the distal portion of the shaft that may also be utilized for screw placement. The shaft of the Plate is placed proximally on the distal radius and offers a variety of K-wire and screw placement options for secure fixation to the external surface of the bone. The device provides the stabilization and fixation necessary in the treatment of distal radius fractures and osteotomies.

Summary of Performance Studies
The mechanical properties of the modified Contours VPS III plates were tested in uni-axial compression to determine if the modified plates meet the same criteria for mechanical strength and stiffness as the predicate device. The results of the testing demonstrated that the Contours VPS exceeded all mechanical testing criteria.
Based upon the results of biomechanical testing, the modified Contours VPS III plates and expanded range of sizes is substantially equivalent to the Orthofix Volar Distal Radial Plate. The Contours VPS III has the mechanical properties needed to perform its indications for use and is considered to be substantially equivalent to the predicate device in design, intended use, material and function.

§ 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.
