The 510(k) summary describes a mechanical fixation device and does not mention any AI or ML components or functionalities.
No.
The device's intended use is to provide fixation during the healing process, which is a supportive role rather than directly curing or treating a disease or condition.
No
Explanation: The device description states it is a "knotless system for fixation of syndesmosis disruptions" and is "intended to provide fixation during the healing process." This indicates a therapeutic or reparative function, not a diagnostic one. There is no mention of it being used to identify or determine the nature of a condition.
No
The device description clearly states it is a physical system comprised of a suture band, button, and lock, made of materials like PET and stainless steel. This indicates it is a hardware 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 is to provide fixation during the healing process following a syndesmotic trauma. This is a therapeutic and structural function within the body, not a diagnostic test performed on samples taken from the body.
- Device Description: The device is a physical implant (suture band, button, lock) used to stabilize a joint. This is consistent with a surgical or orthopedic device, not an IVD.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), detecting specific analytes, or providing diagnostic information.
IVDs are used to examine specimens from the human body to provide information for the diagnosis, prevention, or treatment of a disease or condition. The Tensyn™ Band does not fit this description.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
All necessary testing has been performed with the Tensyn™ Band to assure substantial equivalence to the predicate devices. Testing included rotational loading, cyclic loading, ultimate load, load at 3 mm and shear test. The testing demonstrated that the Tensyn™ Band is 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.

Indications for Use:
The Tensyn™ Band is intended to provide fixation during the healing process following a isolated syndesmotic trauma, such as fixation of syndesmosis disruptions).
Technical Characteristics:
The Tensyn™ Band has similar physical and technical characteristics to the predicate devices since all devices achieve fixation through a suture between two metal fasteners.
Performance Data:
All necessary testing has been performed with the Tensyn™ Band to assure substantial equivalence to the predicate devices. Testing included rotational loading, cyclic loading, ultimate load, load at 3 mm and shear test. The testing demonstrated that the Tensyn™ Band is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.
Basis for Determination of Substantial Equivalence:
Upon reviewing the technical information provided in this submission and comparing intended use, principle of operation, performance data, and overall technological characteristics, the Tensyn™ Band is determined to be substantially equivalent to existing legally marketed devices.
