Intended Use
The Stryker VariAx 2 Compression Plating System is intended for internal fixation of bones in adult patients. The Stryker VariAx 2 Compression Plating System is indicated for internal fixation of fractures in the Radius, Ulna, Humerus, Clavicle, Distal tibia and Fibula for the following indications: - osteotomies, mal-unions, and non-unions - single, segmental, and comminuted fractures - normal bone density and osteopenic bone
Device Description
The VariAx 2 Compression Plating System is an internal fixation device that consists of various plates used with compatible screws to fit different types of fractures in the radius, ulna, humerus, clavicle, distal tibia and fibula. The subject components will be available sterile and non-sterile. The plates will be available in sizes ranging from 30-246mm in length.
More Information

No
The 510(k) summary describes a mechanical internal fixation system and does not mention any AI or ML components or functionalities.

No.
The device is an internal fixation system for fractures, not a therapeutic device designed to treat or prevent diseases.

No

Explanation: The device is an internal fixation system for bones, used for treatment (fixing fractures), not for diagnosing conditions.

No

The device description clearly states it is an "internal fixation device that consists of various plates used with compatible screws," indicating it is a hardware-based medical device.

No, this device 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 (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health.
  • Device Description: The Stryker VariAx 2 Compression Plating System is described as an "internal fixation device" consisting of plates and screws used to fix bones. This is a surgical implant, not a device that analyzes biological samples.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is for "internal fixation of bones," which is a surgical procedure, not a diagnostic test.

The information provided clearly indicates this is a device used within the body for structural support, not a device used to perform tests outside the body on biological samples.

§ 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.
