More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a mechanical implant and surgical instruments, with no mention of software, algorithms, or AI/ML terms.

No.
The device is an implantable system for bone fusion and repair, not a device used to provide therapy or treatment.

No

This device is a surgical implant (Hammertoe Correction System) used for small bone reconstruction and fusion, not for diagnosing medical conditions.

No

The device description explicitly states that the system consists of physical components fabricated from titanium alloy, which are hardware.

Based on the provided information, the Nextra™ Ti Hammertoe Correction System 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, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
  • Device Description and Intended Use: The description clearly states that the Nextra™ Ti Hammertoe Correction System is a surgical implant used for "small bone reconstruction limited to inter-digital repair and fusion of the lesser toes." This is a device implanted in the body for structural support and repair, not a device used to test samples outside the body.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any components or processes related to sample collection, analysis, or diagnostic testing.

Therefore, the Nextra™ Ti Hammertoe Correction System falls under the category of a surgical implant or orthopedic device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic.

§ 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.
