Intended Use
The Disco Subtalar Implant is indicated for use in the treatment of the hyperpronated foot and stabilization of the subtalar joint. It is intended to block the forward, and medial displacement of the talus, thus allowing normal subtalar joint motion but limiting excessive pronation.
Device Description
The Disco Subtalar Implant consists of a threaded implant, designed to be inserted between the posterior and middle facets of the subtalar joint, and corresponding instrumentation to facilitate insertion. The leading end of the implant is cylindrical in shape and is approximately half of the overall length of the device, with the remaining length being spherical. The full length of the implant incorporates a center cannula designed for use with a guide wire to facilitate proper placement of the implant. Internal threads are machined in the spherical end of the implant and are for use with a removal tool.

No
The description focuses on the mechanical design and function of a physical implant and its instrumentation, with no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate AI/ML.

Yes
The device is intended for the treatment of a medical condition (hyperpronated foot and stabilization of the subtalar joint).

No

The provided text describes a medical implant (Disco Subtalar Implant) designed for treatment and stabilization of the subtalar joint. Its function is to block displacement, allowing normal motion while limiting excessive pronation. This is a therapeutic device, not one that identifies or diagnoses a condition.

No

The device description clearly states it is a threaded implant and corresponding instrumentation, which are physical hardware components.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are devices used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) taken from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Device Description: The Disco Subtalar Implant is a physical implant designed to be surgically inserted into the subtalar joint of the foot. It is a mechanical device used to treat a physical condition (hyperpronated foot and subtalar joint instability).
  • Intended Use: The intended use is to physically block displacement of the talus and stabilize the subtalar joint, not to analyze biological samples.

The information provided clearly describes a surgical implant, not a device used for testing biological samples in a lab setting.

§ 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.

2. DEVICE DESCRIPTION

The Disco Subtalar Implant consists of a threaded implant, designed to be inserted between the posterior and middle facets of the subtalar joint, and corresponding instrumentation to facilitate insertion. The leading end of the implant is cylindrical in shape and is approximately half of the overall length of the device, with the remaining length being spherical. The full length of the implant incorporates a center cannula designed for use with a guide wire to facilitate proper placement of the implant. Internal threads are machined in the spherical end of the implant and are for use with a removal tool.

Change from Predicate:

The change from the predicate device is a geometry change.

Materials:

Ti-6Al-4V alloy per ASTM F136

Function:

The Disco Subtalar Implant blocks the posterior and inferior displacement of the talus, thus allowing normal subtalar joint motion while blocking excessive pronation.
