No
The device description focuses on mechanical components and does not mention any software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate the use of AI/ML.
Yes
The device is described as a "bone stabilizer and lengthening (and/or transport) device" intended for "correction of congenital deficiencies or posttraumatic defects of the mandibular body and ramus where gradual bone distraction is required," which are therapeutic applications.
No
Explanation: The device is described as a bone stabilizer and lengthening device used for correcting congenital deficiencies or post-traumatic defects, requiring gradual bone distraction. Its intended use is therapeutic (stabilization and distraction), not diagnostic.
No
The device description explicitly states it is a family of internal distraction osteogenesis devices manufactured from titanium alloy and chromium cobalt alloy, which are hardware components.
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 for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
- Device Function: The Synthes Curvilinear Distraction System is an implantable surgical device used to physically stabilize and lengthen bone in the mandible. It directly interacts with the patient's body during a surgical procedure.
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it's for "bone stabilization and lengthening (and/or transport)" and "correction of congenital deficiencies or posttraumatic defects of the mandibular body and ramus where gradual bone distraction is required." This is a therapeutic and reconstructive purpose, not a diagnostic one based on analyzing bodily specimens.
The information provided describes a surgical implant, not a device used for laboratory testing of samples.

Device Description
The Synthes Curvilinear Distraction System is a family of internal distraction osteogenesis devices that gradually advance the mandible along a specific trajectory of distraction. The system features various curved and straight distractors in two sizes; the 1.3mm Curvilinear Distractor and the 2.0mm Curvilinear Distractor. The distractors accept extension arms which move the point of activation to a location that is easily accessible with the activation instrument. Synthes Curvilinear Distraction System devices are manufactured from titanium alloy and chromium cobalt alloy. Devices are supplied non-sterile and must be sterilized prior to use.
The distractor features a worm gear that is activated to move the distractor along a curved or straight track. The distractor consists of three main components: Track, Worm gear activation assembly, and Housing.
Track: The track has grooves in 1 mm intervals which may be placed in a straight line (for a straight distractor) or on a centerline radius (for a curved distractor). The track is manufactured with a crimp that serves as a functional stop to prevent the distractor from separating at the end of the track. The track is 35mm in length and can be cut to the desired length for each particular patient by the surgeon. After cutting, the track is crimped to re-establish the functional stop to prevent separation.
Worm gear activation assembly: The worm activation assembly consists of the worm gear and a universal joint activation hex. The universal joint is capable of + or - 35° of angulation. The worm gear has a 1 mm pitch and rides along the grooves cut into the track. The worm gear activation assembly is inserted into the housing and the track with grooves is threaded through a slot in the side of the housing.
Housing: The housing includes a tab that lays on the activation assembly to prevent the distractor from reversing due to micromotion.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
Mechanical testing was used to demonstrate that any differences, where they do exist, do not negatively impact safety and effectiveness.
Four point bend testing was performed to demonstrate that the proposed 1.3 mm Curvilinear Distractor can withstand forces applied to it from mastication and can resist permanent deformation within the range of the predicate devices.
Torque-force testing was also conducted to show that the proposed 1.3 mm Curvilinear Distractor can generate sufficient force to overcome the anatomical resistance to distraction (soft tissue resistance, callus stretching, etc.) by over three times the acceptance criterion.
Clinical testing was not necessary for the determination of substantial equivalence.

Comparison to Predicate Devices
Indications
The Indications statement for the proposed device is similar to the statements of all of the predicate devices in that they are to be used for distraction osteogenesis of the mandible. Although the wording for each specific Indications statement varies, they are all cleared for the same clinical application - bone stabilization and lengthening (and/or transport) of the mandible where gradual bone distraction is required.
Both the proposed device and the OsteoMed Pediatric Intraoral Mandibular Distraction System (K043434) predicate are intended for use in patients under 4 years of age. The proposed device is similar to the Synthes Craniomaxillofacial (CMF) Distraction System (K060138) predicate which includes devices for patients under the age of 12 months as well as devices for patients over 1 year of age.
The differences in the Indications statement for the proposed device in comparison to the predicates do not constitute a new intended use.

Comparison to Predicate Devices (continued)
Technological Similarities
- The proposed device and the predicate devices consist of mesh footplates designed to attach . to the mandible with bone screws.
- The proposed device and the predicate devices include an advancement mechanism designed . to move the mobilized segment(s) of the mandible to gencratc new bone as part of the distraction osteogenesis treatment process.
- The proposed device uses the same worm drive mechanism as Synthes Curvilinear o Distraction System (K080153) predicate.
- The proposed device and the predicate devices are manufactured from titanium/titanium . alloys and chromium cobalt, each of which meets the requirements of its respective ASTM standard. Titanium and titanium alloys have a long, established history of use as a surgical implant material.
Technological Differences
- The advancement mechanism for the proposed device is a worm drive, whereas the Synthes . Craniomaxillofacial (CMF) Distraction System (K060138) the OsteoMed Intraoral Mandibular Distraction System (K013618), and OsteoMed Pediatric Intraoral Mandibular Distraction System (K043434) predicates employ a center lead screw.
Non-clinical performance data
Mechanical testing was used to demonstrate that any differences, where they do exist, do not negatively impact safety and effectiveness.
Four point bend testing was performed to demonstrate that the proposed 1.3 mm Curvilinear Distractor can withstand forces applied to it from mastication and can resist permanent deformation within the range of the predicate devices.
Torque-force testing was also conducted to show that the proposed 1.3 mm Curvilinear Distractor can generate sufficient force to overcome the anatomical resistance to distraction (soft tissue resistance, callus stretching, etc.) by over three times the acceptance criterion.
Clinical performance data
Clinical testing was not necessary for the determination of substantial equivalence.
Substantial Equivalence
The proposed device has the same intended use as the predicate devices. The mechanical testing included in this submission demonstrates that the slight differences in technological menaceristics do not raise any new questions of safety and effectiveness and that the proposed device is at least as safe and effective as the predicates. The information submitted supports substantial equivalence.
