Intended Use
The MaxLock Extreme System is indicated for the following: •The MaxLock Extreme Universal Module is indicated for use in adult or pediatric patients as indicated for pelvic, small and long bone fracture fixation and fixation of bones that have been surgically prepared (osteotomy) for correction of deformity or arthrodesis. Indications for use include internal fixation of the tibia, fibula, femur, humerus, ulna, radius, and bones in the hand, wrist, foot and ankle. • The MaxLock Extreme Clavicle Module is indicated for fractures, fusions and osteotomies of the clavicle and bones in the hand, wrist, foot and ankle. •The MaxLock Extreme Foot Module is indicated for fractures, fusions and osteotomies of bones in the hand, wrist, foot and ankle in pediatric and adult patients. • The MaxLock Extreme Distal Radius Module is indicated for fractures and osteotomies of the distal radius in adult patients.
Device Description
The MaxLock Extreme® System consists of various size plates and screws used to stabilize and aid in the fusion or repair of fractured bones and bone fragments. The plates are offered in different lengths and sizes. The screws are offered in different diameters and lengths. All implantable components are manufactured from implant grade titanium alloy or PEEK
More Information

Not Found

No
The description focuses on mechanical components (plates and screws) for bone fixation and does not mention any software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate AI/ML. The performance studies are based on finite element analysis, not data-driven AI/ML models.

Yes
The device is used for fracture fixation, fusion, and repair of fractured bones, which are therapeutic interventions.

No

The device is described as an implantable system (plates and screws) used for fracture fixation and repair, not for diagnosing conditions.

No

The device description explicitly states that the system consists of "various size plates and screws" which are physical, implantable components made from titanium alloy or PEEK. This indicates it is a hardware-based medical device, not software-only.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes the device as being used for the internal fixation of bones to treat fractures, fusions, and osteotomies. This is a surgical procedure performed directly on the patient's body.
  • Device Description: The device is described as plates and screws made of titanium alloy or PEEK, which are implantable components used in surgery.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue, etc.) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.

IVD devices are used in vitro (outside the body) to analyze biological samples. This device is used in vivo (inside the body) for surgical repair.

§ 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.

Substantial Equivalence:

The new MaxLock Extreme® System is substantially equivalent to the existing OrthoHelix MaxLock Extreme® System (K122005). Finite element analysis comparing the strength of the subject and predicate devices was performed and the results support substantial equivalence. Due to similarities in indications, design, and materials, no other testing was required. No new issues of safety and effectiveness have been raised.

Dear Mr. Lewis:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls.
