Intended Use
The AOS Trochanteric Nail is intended to treat stable and unstable proximal fractures of the femur including pertrochanteric, intertrochanteric and high subtrochanteric fractures and combinations of these fractures. The long trochanteric nail is additionally indicated for subtrochanteric fractures, pertrochanteric fractures associated with shaft fractures, pathologic fractures (including prophylactic use) in osteoporotic bone of the trochanteric and diaphyseal areas, long subtrochanteric fracture, ipsilateral femoral fractures, proximal and distal nonunions and malunions and revisions procedures.
Device Description
The AOS Solid Locking and Telescoping Lag Screws are used in the AOS Trochanteric Nail System, in conjunction with the AOS Trochanteric Nail. Both AOS screws can be locked to the nail. The Telescoping Lag Screw allows the threads to collapse within the barrel.
More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a mechanical orthopedic implant and its associated screws, with no mention of software, algorithms, or any AI/ML related terms.

Yes
The device, a trochanteric nail system, is intended to treat various types of fractures of the femur, which is a therapeutic function.

No

This device is a trochanteric nail system used for fracture fixation, which is a treatment device, not a diagnostic one. Its purpose is to treat fractures, not to diagnose them.

No

The device description and performance studies clearly indicate this is a physical orthopedic implant (nail and screws) used for fracture fixation, not a software-only device.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health.
  • Device Description and Intended Use: The provided text clearly describes a surgical implant (a trochanteric nail and screws) used to fix bone fractures in the femur. This is a device that is implanted into the body for a therapeutic purpose, not used to test samples outside the body.

The information provided focuses on the mechanical properties and surgical application of the device, which is consistent with a Class II or Class III medical device used for orthopedic surgery, not an IVD.

Summary of Performance Studies

The AOS Solid Locking and Telescoping Lag Screws were each subjected to static and fatigue testing in accordance with ASTM F384, Standard Specifications and Test Methods for Metallic Angled Orthopedic Fracture Fixation Devices. The results demonstrate that the Solid Locking and Telescoping Lag Screws are substantially equivalent to the predicate devices. Additionally, the Telescoping Lag Screw was subjected to torque testing in accordance with ASTM F543, Standard Specifications and Test Methods for Metallic Medical Bone Screws.
