Intended Use
Piccolo Composite™ Diaphyseal Plate: The Piccolo Composite™ Diaphyseal Plate is indicated for the fixation of various long bones, such as the humerus, femur and tibia, including osteopenic bone, osteotomies, and nonunions or malunions in adult patients. These plates are also indicated for fracture fixation of diaphyseal areas of long bones in pediatric patients. Piccolo Composite™ Proximal Humerus Plate: The Piccolo Composite™ Proximal Humerus Plate is indicated for fractures, fracture dislocations, osteotomies, and nonunions of the proximal humerus, including in osteopenic bone. Piccolo Composite™ Distal Volar Radius Plate: The Piccolo Composite™ Distal Volar Radius Plate is indicated for fractures and osteotomies of the distal volar radius.
Device Description
The Piccolo Composite Plate System comprises implants (plates and screws/pegs), and a set of instruments. The Plates are made of carbon fiber reinforced polyetheretherketone (CFR-PEEK), and are marked with a tantalum thread, to provide for their visualization under fluoroscopy. The following types of plates are available: Diaphyseal Plates (thickness: 4.5 mm or 5 mm); Proximal Humerus Plate (thickness: 3.7 mm); Distal Volar Radius Plate (thickness: 2.4 mm). The Screws (and Pegs) are made of titanium alloy. Various screw types are available, such as cortical screws and locking screws, as well as pegs (to be used only with the Distal Radius Plate), in various dimensions.
More Information

No
The summary describes a mechanical bone plate system made of composite materials and titanium. There is no mention of software, algorithms, or any technology that would suggest the use of AI or ML. The performance studies focus on mechanical properties, not algorithmic performance.

No
The device is a system of plates and screws intended for the fixation of various long bones, used to treat fractures, osteotomies, nonunions, and malunions, which are structural and mechanical interventions rather than therapeutic treatments.

No
This device is a surgical implant (plate and screws) used for the fixation of bones, not for diagnosing conditions.

No

The device description explicitly states that the system comprises implants (plates and screws/pegs) and a set of instruments, which are physical hardware components.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Device Description and Intended Use: The Piccolo Composite Plate System is a surgical implant used for the fixation of bones. It is physically placed within the body to stabilize fractures and other bone issues.
  • Lack of Specimen Analysis: The description and intended use clearly indicate that this device does not analyze any biological specimens. Its function is mechanical support of bone.

Therefore, based on the provided information, the Piccolo Composite Plate System is a surgical implant, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

Performance characteristics of the subject plates, such as single cycle (static) 4-point bending and dynamic (fatigue) 4-point bending were evaluated per ASTM F 382 -Standard Specification and Test Method for Metallic Bone Plates. Testing in support of the MR Conditional labeling parameters was also provided. Results were comparable to those of similar predicate devices, thus demonstrating that the system is safe and effective for its intended use.

§ 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.
