The document describes surgical instruments for inserting tibial nails and does not mention any AI or ML capabilities.
No.
The device consists of instruments intended to facilitate the surgical insertion of intramedullary nail implants, which are the therapeutic devices. The instruments themselves do not directly provide therapy.
No
The device, Synthes Suprapatellar Insertion Instruments, is intended to facilitate the surgical approach for the insertion of intramedullary nail implants. Its purpose is to aid in stabilizing fractures, not to diagnose them.
No
The device description explicitly lists physical instruments (aiming arms, protection sleeves, trocars, and accessory instruments) and mentions in vitro studies and biocompatibility testing, indicating it is a hardware-based medical device.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the instruments are used to "facilitate the surgical approach for the insertion of intramedullary nail implants" to stabilize fractures. This is a surgical procedure performed directly on the patient's body.
- Device Description: The description details surgical instruments like aiming arms, protection sleeves, and trocars, which are used during surgery.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) outside of the body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment.
IVD devices are used to perform tests on samples taken from the body, not for direct surgical intervention.

§ 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.
