No
The device description and performance studies focus on the mechanical properties and biocompatibility of a physical implant and inserter, with no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate AI/ML.

Yes.
The device is a PRO Fixation™ System intended for the reattachment of soft tissue to bone, which is a therapeutic function.

No

This device is intended for the reattachment of soft tissue to bone, which is a therapeutic function, not a diagnostic one. It is a surgical implant system designed for repair, not for identifying or investigating a disease or condition.

No

The device description explicitly states that the system is comprised of an implantable non-absorbable anchor and a disposable inserter, which are hardware components.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes a device for the surgical reattachment of soft tissue to bone in various anatomical locations. This is a therapeutic and structural function, not a diagnostic one.
  • Device Description: The device is described as an "implantable non-absorbable anchor and a disposable inserter" used for "placement, suture tensioning, and fixation of soft tissue into bone." This aligns with a surgical implant and its delivery system.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Elements: There is no mention of the device being used to test samples (blood, tissue, etc.) or to provide information about a patient's health status or condition.
  • Performance Studies: The performance studies focus on mechanical properties (pull-out strength, suture integrity) and biocompatibility, which are relevant for implantable devices, not IVDs.

IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This device does not fit that description.

Summary of Performance Studies

Non-Clinical Testing: Testing has been conducted to evaluate the biological safety and performance characteristics of PRO Fixation™ System. Biocompatibility results indicate that the device biocompatibility profile is equivalent to the predicate devices. Laboratory testing was performed to verify that pull-out strength, suture integrity/tensile strength following anchor insertion, suture slip resistance, and anchor and driver integrity meet mechanical performance requirements for the product's intended use and are comparable to predicate devices.

§ 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. Boucly:

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.
