The device description and performance studies focus on mechanical properties and fixation, with no mention of AI/ML or related concepts like image processing or data analysis.
Yes.
The device is intended for internal fixation of bones and fractures, which are therapeutic interventions.
No
The device is an internal fixation device intended for the treatment of bone fractures, not for diagnosing medical conditions.
No
The device description explicitly states it is an "internal fixation device that consists of straight plates used with compatible screws," which are physical hardware components.
No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states "internal fixation of bones in adult patients" and lists specific anatomical sites for fracture fixation. This is a surgical procedure performed directly on the patient's body.
- Device Description: The device is described as an "internal fixation device that consists of straight plates used with compatible screws." This is a physical implant used to stabilize bones.
- IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health. This device does not involve testing samples.
The information provided describes a surgical implant used for orthopedic procedures, not an IVD.

§ 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)
