Intended Use
The ARS and SLANT SCREW medical devices are indicated for the fixation of bone fractures and bone reconstruction. Examples include but are not limited to: · Fixation of bone fragments in long or small bone fractures · arthrodesis in hand or foot surgery · mono or bi-cortical osteotomies in the foot or hand · distal or proximal metatarsal or metacarpal osteotomies · fixation of osteotomies for hallux valgus treatment (such as Scarf, Chevron, etc.)
Device Description
The ARS and SLANT Screws are made of titanium alloy (Ti6A14V) according to ISO 5832-3 and ASTM F 136. They are self-drilling, self-tapping and designed with a double thread for better grip on tissue. The ARS and SLANT Screws are intended for single use only. The titanium ARS and SLANT SCREWs are cannulated for use with a guide wire and have double-threading and different pitch for the proximal and distal threads. The headless screws can be completely embedded in the bone thus avoiding any protrusion that could cause irritation to the tissue. The double-thread design assures compression and stability of the fractures. Both screws have reverse-cutting flutes in the head threaded portion to facilitate removal of the screw. The code to clearly identify each product is laser-marked on the unthreaded cylindrical screw part. The screws are color coded (anodized) to be easily recognized ARS (blue) from SLANT (green).
More Information

Not Found

No
The device description focuses on the material, design, and mechanical properties of bone screws, with no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate AI/ML. The "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML" section explicitly states "Not Found".

Yes
The devices are indicated for fixation of bone fractures and bone reconstruction, which are therapeutic interventions.

No

The device description clearly states its purpose is for "fixation of bone fractures and bone reconstruction," and it is detailed as a "screw" for surgical use, not for diagnosis.

No

The device description clearly states the device is made of titanium alloy and is a physical screw intended for bone fixation. It does not mention any software component.

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 provided text describes a surgical implant (screws) made of titanium alloy, designed for the physical fixation of bone fractures and reconstruction.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is clearly for surgical procedures to stabilize bones, not for analyzing biological samples.

The device described is a surgical implant/orthopedic device, not an IVD.

§ 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.
