Intended Use
The Suspension™ Clavicle Fracture Fixation System can be used for adult patients. The Suspension™ Clavicle Fracture Fixation plates and screws are indicated for fixation of clavicle fractures.
Device Description
The Suspension™ Clavicle Fracture Fixation System is an internal fixation system consisting of various sized plates and screws. The plates and screws are fabricated from 316L Stainless Steel. The device consists of the following implantable components (some or all of which may be used based on the nature of the injury): - 1. Three (3) Sizes of Clavicle Fracture Plate for Each Shoulder (i.e. small, medium, and large; each with Left & Right). - 2. Eight (8) Lengths each of 2.7mm Non-Locking & Locking Bone Screws. - 3. Eight (8) Lengths each of 3.5mm Non-Locking & Locking Bone Screws. Implantable components are included in a surgical tray that must be steam sterilized by the hospital or surgical center. These components are intended for re-sterilization, but these components are for single use only. The implants are used with instrumentation including: - Hex Driver . - o Handle and a 2.5mm hex driver for hand tightening bone screws - Assorted Drill bits . - o To create pilot holes for bone screws. The drill bits are compatible with most AO connections. - Drill Guide Assemblies .

No
The device description and performance studies focus on the mechanical properties and equivalence to predicate devices, with no mention of AI or ML.

Yes
The device is used for the "fixation of clavicle fractures," which is a medical intervention to treat an injury, thereby making it a therapeutic device.

No

The device is an internal fixation system (plates and screws) used for treating clavicle fractures, not for diagnosis.

No

The device description explicitly details physical implantable components (plates and screws made of 316L Stainless Steel) and associated surgical instrumentation. There is no mention of any software component.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for the "fixation of clavicle fractures" in adult patients. This is a surgical procedure performed directly on the patient's body to stabilize a broken bone.
  • Device Description: The device consists of implantable plates and screws made of stainless steel, along with surgical instruments. These are physical components used in surgery.
  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics (IVDs) are medical devices used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health. They are used outside the body (in vitro).

This device is clearly an implantable surgical device used for orthopedic fixation, not for testing biological samples.

§ 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.

Predicate Device:

Smith & Nephew Peri-Loc locking bone plates, locking and non-locking bone screws for the upper extremity - K061352

Description of the Device:

The Suspension™ Clavicle Fracture Fixation System is an internal fixation system consisting of various sized plates and screws. The plates and screws are fabricated from 316L Stainless Steel.

The device consists of the following implantable components (some or all of which may be used based on the nature of the injury):

    1. Three (3) Sizes of Clavicle Fracture Plate for Each Shoulder (i.e. small, medium, and large; each with Left & Right).
    1. Eight (8) Lengths each of 2.7mm Non-Locking & Locking Bone Screws.

The implants are used with instrumentation including:

  • Hex Driver .
    • o Handle and a 2.5mm hex driver for hand tightening bone screws
  • Assorted Drill bits .
    • o To create pilot holes for bone screws. The drill bits are compatible with most AO connections.
  • Drill Guide Assemblies .

Intended Use:

The Suspension™ Clavicle Fracture Fixation System can be used for adult patients. Suspension " Clavicle Fracture Fixation plates and screws are indicated for fixation of clavicle fractures.

Technological Characteristics:

The subject devices are substantially equivalent to the predicate devices. Both the subject device and predicate device have indications for clavicle. However, the predicate device also has indications for many other bones (including tibia, femur, pelvis, humerus, metacarpals, etc). The devices are composed of the same materials, and have the same sterility. The devices are used with 3.5mm and 2.7mm locking or non-locking screws.

Performance:

The material (316L Stainless Steel) selected is commonly used for orthopedic implants with a long history of biocompatibility.

The devices have been subjected to recognized consensus standards for these types of devices and perform in a manner equivalent to the predicate devices. The device has been subjected to non-clinical testing including Torsional Strength and Break, Four Point Bending, Screw Driving Torque, and Predicate Device Comparison Analysis.

Conclusion:

We believe that based on the predicate device comparison and the non-clinical testing performed the subject devices are substantially equivalent to the predicate devices and conclude that the subject devices are as safe and effective as the predicate devices.
