Intended Use
The Pioneer Sternal Cable Plate System is intended for use in the stabilization and fixation of fractures of the anterior chest wall including Sternal fixation following Sternotomy and Sternal reconstructive surgical procedures.
Device Description
The Pioneer Sternal Cable Plate System contains various configurations of plates, some with integrated cables and crimps, and Ø2.7mm and 3.0mm self-drilling screws (lengths 8-20mm) to allow for multiple anterior chest wall and sternal repair and reconstruction options. The implants are manufactured from medical grade ASTM F67 Grade IV commercially pure titanium and ASTM F136 Titanium alloy. The implants may be implanted via an open or minimally invasive approach using Class I (exempt) orthopedic manual surgical instruments. The purpose of this submission is to add additional implant configurations to the system.
More Information

Not Found

No
The device description and performance studies focus on mechanical properties and surgical application, with no mention of AI/ML terms or functionalities.

Yes
The device is intended for the "stabilization and fixation of fractures of the anterior chest wall," which directly addresses and treats a medical condition, qualifying it as a therapeutic device.

No

The device is described as a system for "stabilization and fixation of fractures" and "repair and reconstruction options," which indicates it is a therapeutic device, not a diagnostic one. There is no mention of it being used to detect or identify a medical condition.

No

The device description explicitly states it contains various configurations of plates, cables, crimps, and screws, all made from titanium. These are physical implants, not software.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states the device is for "stabilization and fixation of fractures of the anterior chest wall including Sternal fixation following Sternotomy and Sternal reconstructive surgical procedures." This describes a surgical implant used in vivo (within the body) to physically support and repair bone.
  • Device Description: The description details plates, cables, crimps, and screws made of titanium, designed for surgical implantation. It also mentions surgical instruments used for implantation.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: An IVD device is used in vitro (outside the body) to examine specimens (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device does not perform any such function.

The device described is a surgical implant used for orthopedic/sternal fixation.

Dear Ms. Downs:

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.
