Intended Use
The Hoffman II External Fixation System is intended to be used in the stabilization of open and/or unstable fractures and where the soft tissue injury may preclude the use of other fracture treatments such as IM rodding, casting and other means of internal fixation. The indications for use of metallic external fixation devices include: - Bone fracture fixation - Osteotomy - Arthrodesis - Correction of deformity - Revision procedures where other treatments or devices have been unsuccessful - Bone reconstruction procedures
Device Description
The Hoffmann II External Fixation System originally cleared under K952730, K971755, K003211 and K031941 includes clamps, couplings and rods used in conjunction with half pins or transfixing pins of the Hoffmann External Fixation System cleared under K861766 and is intended to be used for the stabilization of fractures of the tibia, femur, liumerus, radius or pelvis. This special 510(k) submission is intended to provide an alternate stainless steel material (Biodir 108) to manufacture Hoffinann II coupling components: Currently the subject Hoffmann II components are manufactured from stainless steel, Custom 455.
More Information

No
The document describes a mechanical external fixation system and a material change for existing components. There is no mention of AI or ML.

Yes.
The device, an external fixation system for bone fracture fixation, osteotomy, arthrodesis, and correction of deformity, is used to treat or manage medical conditions, thereby qualifying as a therapeutic device.

No
The device is described as an external fixation system used for stabilizing fractures and correcting deformities. There is no mention of it being used to diagnose conditions or processes.

No

The device description explicitly states it includes physical components like clamps, couplings, and rods, which are hardware.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use/Indications for Use: The intended use clearly describes the device's function as a mechanical system for stabilizing bone fractures, osteotomies, arthrodesis, and correcting deformities. This is a structural and mechanical function, not a diagnostic one performed on in vitro samples.
  • Device Description: The description details the components (clamps, couplings, rods, pins) and their use in stabilizing bones. This aligns with a mechanical fixation device, not a diagnostic test.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The text 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 these samples
    • Providing information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening of diseases or conditions

The Hoffmann II External Fixation System is a surgical device used for orthopedic procedures.

§ 888.3040 Smooth or threaded metallic bone fixation fastener.

(a)
Identification. A smooth or threaded metallic bone fixation fastener is a device intended to be implanted that consists of a stiff wire segment or rod made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum and stainless steel, and that may be smooth on the outside, fully or partially threaded, straight or U-shaped; and may be either blunt pointed, sharp pointed, or have a formed, slotted head on the end. It may be used for fixation of bone fractures, for bone reconstructions, as a guide pin for insertion of other implants, or it may be implanted through the skin so that a pulling force (traction) may be applied to the skeletal system.(b)
Classification. Class II.

Dear Mr. Bar-David:

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.
