No
The summary describes a mechanical implant and its performance testing, with no mention of AI or ML.
Yes
The device is intended to provide fixation for fractures, fusions, or osteotomies of the bones of the hand and foot, which are medical treatments.
No
The provided text describes an implant system used for fixation of fractures, fusions, or osteotomies, not for diagnosing medical conditions.
No
The device description clearly states it is a physical implant made of Nickel Titanium Alloy and includes associated single-use instruments, indicating it is a hardware device, not software-only.
No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states the device is for "fixation for fractures, fusions or osteotomies of the bones of the hand and foot". This describes a surgical implant used in vivo (within the body) for structural support and healing.
- Device Description: The description details a "one-piece device made of Nickel Titanium Alloy intended to be implanted in the bones of the hand or foot". This further confirms it's an implant.
- 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. This device does not perform any such tests.
The information provided describes a surgical implant, not an IVD.

Device Description
The Solana Surgical FuseForce Implant is a one-piece device made of Nickel Titanium Alloy intended to be implanted in the bones of the hand or foot. The implant is available in a range of sizes (12) ranging from 8 mm X 8 mm to 25 mm X 22 mm including both straight top and step top configurations. The design of the Solana Surgical implant is similar to the predicate device. No new materials or processes are used in the production of this implant. The device is provided in a sterile package which includes associated single use (disposable) instruments.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
Comparative bench testing per ASTM F564 indicates that the subject staple performance exceeds that of the predicate device in all cases evaluated. Original mechanical testing was performed at room temperature. Additional mechanical testing at body temperature was performed to characterize the performance of the subject device and a legally marketed predicate, the Memometal EasyClip stable.
The devices tested were 8mm x 8mm nitinol staples which represent the worstcase for 1.) pullout fixation strength, 2.) static bending and 3.) fatigue bending. For both devices, production components were used. Six subject devices and six predicate devices were evaluated in each test. See Attachment K "VR-029 - "Staple Mechanical Testing Report -- FuseForce Implant System".
The Solana subject device exceeded or was equivalent to the predicate in mechanical performance and therefore demonstrates acceptable mechanical characteristics.
Comparative testing characterized the corrosion resistance of the subject device and a legally marketed predicate, the Memometal EasyClip staple. The testing was performed per ASTM F 2129. The devices tested were 25mm x 22mm nitinol staples which represent the largest surface area and, therefore, worst case for corrosion susceptibility. For both devices, production components were used and a simulated implantation in bone substitute was performed. Six subject devices and six predicate devices were tested. See Attachment J "VR-026 - Staple Implant Corrosion Validation".
The subject device demonstrates a breakdown potential (Eb) that is higher than that of the predicate suggesting that the subject device exhibits an acceptable level of corrosion resistance.

§ 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.

Summary Comparison to Predicate Devices:
Similarities of the Solana Surgical device to its predicates include these devices being intended for single use only and for surgical implantation longer than 30 days. The Solana Surgical device and the predicate device have similar design characteristics and intended use. The stated indications for use add specificity to that of the predicate by listing examples of procedures within the broader context of the predicate's statement. The indications for use of the subject device are, therefore, not new but merely better defined. Comparative bench testing per ASTM F564 indicates that the subject staple performance exceeds that of the predicate device in all cases evaluated. Original mechanical testing was performed at room temperature. Additional mechanical testing at body temperature was performed to characterize the performance of the subject device and a legally marketed predicate, the Memometal EasyClip stable.
