Intended Use
The Cannulated Screw System by Pioneer will be indicated for use in long and small bone fracture fixation, which may include the following: 1. Fractures of the tarsals and metatarsals; 2. Metatarsal and phalangeal osteotomies; 3. Fractures of the carpals and metacarpals; 4. Carpal and metacarpal arthrodesis; 5. Small fragments of the hand and wrist; 6. Ligament fixation, if appropriate; 7. Sacroiliac joint disruptions; 8. Fractures of the distal femur and proximal tibia; 9. Intracapsular fractures of the hip; 10. Ankle arthrodesis; and 11. Pelvis and acetabulum fractures; and 12. Areas where accurate screw placement is vital. This system is not indicated for use in the spine. The Cannulated Screw System by Pioneer will be offered both sterile and non-sterile and is a single use device.
Device Description
The Cannulated Screw System by Pioneer consists of cannulated screws of varying diameters, thread configurations, and lengths to accommodate variations in surgical technique, severity level of fracture, and differing patient anatomy. The screws are available in self-tapping or self-drilling, in partially and fully threaded configurations, in diameters ranging from 3.5mm – 7.5mm and lengths ranging from 8-200mm. The system also includes correspondingly sized washers, the use of which is optional. The purpose of this submission is to extend the available screw lengths to 200mm. The screws and washers are manufactured from Biodur 108 (ASTM F2229).

No
The 510(k) summary describes a mechanical implant (cannulated screws) and does not mention any software, algorithms, or AI/ML capabilities. The focus is on the physical characteristics and intended use of the screws.

No
A therapeutic device is one that treats or manages a disease or condition. This device is used for fracture fixation, which is a supportive rather than a therapeutic function, helping in the healing process but not directly treating a disease or disorder.

No
The provided text describes a surgical implant system used for bone fracture fixation and similar orthopedic procedures, not for diagnosing medical conditions.

No

The device description clearly states that the device consists of physical components (cannulated screws and washers) made from a specific material (Biodur 108). This indicates a hardware-based medical device, not a software-only one.

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, tissue) to provide information about a person's health. This information is used for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Device Description: The provided text describes a surgical implant (cannulated screws and washers) used for fixing bone fractures and performing osteotomies and arthrodesis. These are physical devices implanted into the body during surgery.
  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states the device is for "long and small bone fracture fixation" and lists specific anatomical locations and procedures. This is a therapeutic and structural function, not a diagnostic one based on in vitro analysis.

The description of the device and its intended use aligns with a Class II or Class III medical device used in orthopedic surgery, not an IVD.

§ 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 Ms. Downs:

This letter corrects our substantially equivalent letter of October 20, 2010.

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. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
