No
The device description and performance studies focus on mechanical properties and equivalence to predicate devices, with no mention of AI/ML, image processing, or data-driven algorithms.
Yes
The device is intended for fixation of fractures, osteotomies, and non-unions, which are conditions requiring therapeutic intervention to restore function and integrity to the affected anatomical sites.
No
Explanation: The device is described as a plating system intended for fixation of fractures, osteotomies, and non-unions, which is a treatment modality, not a diagnostic one. It consists of physical components like plates and screws and clinical data were not needed for substantial equivalence, further indicating it's not a diagnostic tool based on data analysis.
No
The device description explicitly lists physical components such as stainless steel plates, screws, and washers, 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 and Intended Use: The description clearly states that the Emerge Medical Small Fragment Locked Plating System is a system of plates and screws intended for the fixation of fractures, osteotomies, and non-unions in various bones. This is a surgical implant used directly within the body to stabilize bone.
- Lack of Diagnostic Activity: There is no mention of this device being used to analyze samples or provide diagnostic information about a patient's condition. Its purpose is purely structural and therapeutic.
Therefore, based on the provided information, this device falls under the category of a surgical implant, not an In Vitro Diagnostic.

Device Description
The System consists of stainless steel plates (including straight, reconstruction, periarticular t-plates, humerus, one-third tubular), standard cortex screws, locking cortex screws, standard cancellous screws, and washers. The plates are available in a variety of styles and lengths with the number of holes varying depending on plate length, and include threaded locking holes and non-threaded dynamic compression slots. The screws and plates are provided non-sterile.

§ 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.
