No
The device description and performance studies focus on the mechanical properties of bone plates and screws, with no mention of AI or ML.

Yes
The device is intended for the fixation of fractures, osteotomies, non-unions, deformations, revisions, and replantations of bones and bone fragments, which are therapeutic interventions.

No
The device, the Emerge Medical Bone Plate System, is an orthopedic implant intended for the fixation of fractures and bone fragments. It is a treatment device, not a diagnostic one.

No

The device description explicitly states that the system consists of stainless steel and titanium components, including plates, screws, and washers, which are physical hardware components.

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 for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Device Description and Intended Use: The Emerge Medical Bone Plate System is a surgical implant used for the fixation of bones and bone fragments within the body. It is a physical device used to stabilize fractures and other bone issues.
  • Lack of Specimen Analysis: The provided information does not mention any analysis of biological specimens. The device is implanted directly into the patient's body.

Therefore, based on the provided information, the Emerge Medical Bone Plate System is a surgical implant, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Summary of Performance Studies

The Emerge Medical Bone Plate System has been tested in the following test modes:

  • Dynamic four-point bending per ASTM F382-99 (2008)
  • Static torsion testing per ASTM F543-13 (2013)
  • Static axial pullout per ASTM F543-13 (2013) .

The results of this non-clinical testing show that the strength of the Emerge Medical Bone Plate System is sufficient for its intended use and is substantially equivalent to legally marketed 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.
