No
The device description and intended use clearly define a system of bone plates and screws for internal fixation of tibia fractures. There is no mention of software, algorithms, image processing, or any terms related to AI/ML. The performance studies focus on mechanical testing of the implants.
Yes
The device is described as a 'LOQTEQ® Proximal Tibia Plate 3.5 System' consisting of bone plates and screws for internal fixation of bone fragments after fractures, which directly aligns with the definition of a therapeutic device designed to treat a medical condition.
No
This device is an implantable system of bone plates and screws designed for internal fixation of bone fragments, typically after fractures of the proximal tibia. It is a treatment device, not a diagnostic one.
No
The device description explicitly states that the system consists of bone plates and bone screws, which are physical hardware components intended for surgical implantation.
No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health.
- Device Description: The provided text clearly describes the aap LOQTEQ® Proximal Tibia Plate 3.5 System as bone plates and screws intended for internal fixation of bone fragments after fractures. This is a surgical implant, not a device that analyzes biological samples.
- Intended Use: The intended use is for treating various types of fractures and nonunions/malunions of the proximal tibia. This is a structural and mechanical function within the body.
The device is a surgical implant used for orthopedic procedures, not for diagnostic testing of biological samples.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The aap LOQTEQ® Proximal Medial Tibia Plate 3.5 is indicated for:
- Metaphyseal fractures of the medial tibial plateau .
- Split fractures of the medial tibial plateau .
- Medial split fractures with depression ●
- Split or depression fracture of the medial tibial plateau ●
In addition, the plates may be used for fixation of the proximal quarter (lateral and medial) of the tibia as well as multi-fragment fractures of the proximal tibia.

Device Description
The aap LOQTEQ® Proximal Tibia Plate 3.5 System consists of bone plates and bone screws, to be implanted by a surgeon in order to achieve an internal fixation of bone fragments typically after fractures. If the plates are used in conjunction with locking screws, a so called internal fixator will be realized (internal fixation).

§ 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)

Dear Dr. Zietsch:
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. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21
