Intended Use
The TriMed Radiocarpal Fusion System plates and screws are intended for wrist arthrodesis and fixation of fractures of other small bones.
Device Description
TriMed Radiocarpal Fusion plates are designed to provide total immobilization of the wrist during wrist arthrodesis and for fixation of fractures of other small bones. The TriMed Radiocarpal Fusion System comprises of bone plates and screws. All plates and screws are similar to predicate devices. TriMed Radiocarpal Fusion plates come in a variety of lengths, bend angles, and screw mating configurations. All plates are designed to accommodate locking and non-locking screws. TriMed cortical bone screws for the wrist fusion application are available in diameters of 2.7 mm and 3.2 mm. All screws come in a variety of lengths and plate locking conditions. The Radiocarpal Fusion plates and screws are made of either ASTM F138/139 implant grade stainless steel or ASTM F136 implant grade Titanium alloy.
More Information

Not Found

No
The device description and performance studies focus on mechanical properties and equivalence to predicate devices, with no mention of AI/ML, image processing, or data-driven analysis.

Yes
The device is described as supporting "wrist arthrodesis and fixation of fractures," which directly addresses a medical condition or ailment, indicating a therapeutic purpose.

No
Explanation: The device is described as a system of plates and screws for wrist fusion and fixation of bone fractures, which are therapeutic and reconstructive purposes, not diagnostic.

No

The device description explicitly states that the system comprises bone plates and screws, which are physical hardware components made of stainless steel or titanium alloy.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for "wrist arthrodesis and fixation of fractures of other small bones." This describes a surgical procedure and the use of a physical implant, not a test performed on a biological sample outside the body.
  • Device Description: The device is described as "bone plates and screws" made of stainless steel or titanium alloy. This is consistent with a surgical implant, not an IVD.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
    • Analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
    • Detecting or measuring substances in biological samples
    • Providing information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening of diseases or conditions

The device is clearly a surgical implant used to stabilize bones.

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

Theoretical calculations and mechanical tests in the form of static bending loads have been performed to verify the safety and functionality of the device. Results demonstrate that the physical properties of the TriMed Radiocarpal Fusion Plating System are substantially equivalent to the predicated devices. The new product does not change the intended use or scientific principles used for safe and effective implantation of the device

§ 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.

Dear Mr. Steinberger:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food. Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls.
