No
The device description and performance studies focus on the mechanical properties and biocompatibility of a Nitinol compression staple, with no mention of AI or ML technologies.

Yes.
The device is indicated for fracture and osteotomy fixation and joint arthrodesis, which are therapeutic interventions.

No
The device is a compression staple used for fracture and osteotomy fixation and joint arthrodesis, which are therapeutic interventions, not diagnostic ones.

No

The device description explicitly states the device is a "Compression Staple" made of "biocompatible Nitinol" and describes its physical properties and design, indicating it is a physical implantable device, not software.

Based on the provided information, the dynaMX™ Compression Staple is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.

Here's why:

  • IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • The dynaMX™ Compression Staple is a surgical implant used for bone fixation. Its function is mechanical and structural, not diagnostic.
  • The description focuses on the physical properties and intended surgical use of the device. There is no mention of analyzing biological samples or providing diagnostic information.

Therefore, the dynaMX™ Compression Staple falls under the category of a surgical implant or orthopedic device, 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)
Classification. Class II.

Dear Mr. Schrayer:

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.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Description

The dynaMX Compression Staple provides a means of bone fixation in the management of fractures and reconstructive surgery.

  • . The dynaMX Compression Staples are made of biocompatible Nitinol. The legs of the staple are designed to exhibit superelastic properties at room temperature.
  • Staples with a bridge length of 11mm and longer are designed with a bridge that can . be bent to contour to the bone surface.

Indications for Use

The dynaMX™ Compression Staple is indicated for:

  • 0 Fracture and osteotomy fixation and joint arthrodesis of the hand and foot and,
  • Fixation of proximal tibial metaphysis osteotomy 0

Substantial Equivalence

A series of laboratory studies (bench tests) have been conducted to verify the suitability of the dynaMX™ Compression Staple for its intended use, establish Substantial Equivalence with the predicate devices and confirm reproducibility of the packaging.

These tests include:

Elastic Static Bending Testing Bending Fatigue Testing Staple Pull-Out Force Corrosion Testing Package Seal Strength Verification

The biocompatibility of Nitinol has been well-established. A reference publication that describes the biocompatibility is also appended, together with a copy of the shelf-life / stability protocol.

This submission supports the position that the MX Orthopedics dvnaMX™ Compression Staple is substantially equivalent to previously cleared devices, including those listed above. A number of predicate devices list the same range of clinical uses.

Conclusions

MX Orthopedics, Corp. believes that the information provided establishes that similar legally marketed devices have been used for the same clinical applications as the MX Orthopedics dynaMX™ Compression Staple. The materials from which the MX Orthopedics device is fabricated have an established history of use, and the devices have been tested in accordance with applicable FDA guidelines.
