Intended Use
The AxSOS™ Locking Plate System is intended for use in long bone fracture fixation. The system is indicated for fixation of long bone fractures including but not limited to fractures of the humerus, tibia and femur.
Device Description
This Special 510(k) submission is a line extension to address modifications made to the AxSOS™ Locking Plate System which was cleared in K061012. This line extension is to add four femoral long plates to the existing size range of the AxSOS™ Locking Plate System. These monoaxial long plates will be known as AxSOS™ Distal Lateral Femur TS (Threaded Shaft) Long Plates and will be available in two lengths in left and right configurations.

No
The summary describes a line extension for a bone fracture fixation system, focusing on adding new plate sizes. There is no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or any other technology typically associated with AI/ML in medical devices. The performance studies described are mechanical strength tests, not AI/ML performance metrics.

No
The device is described as a system for "long bone fracture fixation," meaning it is used to hold broken bones in place, which is a structural or supportive function, not a therapeutic treatment of a disease or condition in the way medication or other active interventions would be.

No
The device is described as a "Locking Plate System" intended for "long bone fracture fixation," which is a treatment rather than a diagnostic function.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "Locking Plate System" and describes physical plates for fracture fixation, which are hardware components.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is "for use in long bone fracture fixation." This describes a surgical implant used to stabilize broken bones within the body.
  • Device Description: The description details "femoral long plates" which are physical implants.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: An IVD device is used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) taken from the body to provide information about a person's health. This device does not perform any such analysis.

The device described is a surgical implant used for orthopedic procedures.

Risk analysis was performed according to the requirements of ISO 14971:2007 "Medical Devices-Application of risk management to medical devices." Records of the risk analysis process are retained in the design history file. Static strength as well as fatigue strength testing has demonstrated the subject plates are substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.

§ 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.
