More Information

Not Found

No
The device description and performance studies focus on the mechanical properties of the plate and screws, with no mention of AI/ML or related concepts like image processing, training/test sets, or performance metrics typically associated with AI/ML algorithms.

No.
The device is a plating system used for ulnar shortening osteotomy, which is a surgical procedure to correct ulnar length, rather than directly treating a disease or condition for therapeutic purposes.

No
Explanation: The device is a surgical implant (plate and screws) used for ulnar shortening osteotomy. It is designed for treatment (surgical fixation), not for diagnosing a condition or disease.

No

The device description explicitly states that the system consists of a plate and screws manufactured from titanium alloy, which are physical hardware components.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information about a person's health.
  • Device Description: The Alians Ulna Locking Plating System is a surgical implant (plate and screws) used to physically stabilize and repair a bone (the ulna) during a shortening osteotomy procedure. It is used in the body, not to test samples from the body.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is for a surgical procedure (ulnar shortening osteotomy), not for diagnostic testing of biological samples.

The information provided clearly describes a surgical implant, not a device used for in vitro diagnostic testing.

§ 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.

Dear Mr. Webb:

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.
