Device Description
The Tyber Medical Wedge System, manufactured from PEEK-Optima®, consist of implants available in various foot prints, heights and indication configurations with an open architecture to accept packing of bone graft materials. The exterior of the device has "teeth" or other generally sharp engagement members on the superior and inferior surfaces. The device come in a PEEK or PEEK with a plasma-sprayed commercially pure titanium coating on the superior and inferior surfaces.
More Information

No
The document describes a physical implant device for bone fixation and does not mention any software, algorithms, or data processing capabilities that would suggest the use of AI or ML.

Yes.
The device is used for internal bone fixation for bone fractures or osteotomies in the ankle and foot, which is a therapeutic intervention.

No

The provided text describes the Tyber Medical PEEK Wedge System and TyPEEK Wedge System as implants for internal bone fixation for fractures, fusions, or osteotomies. It details their materials, design, and intended use as fixation devices, with no mention of diagnostic capabilities.

No

The device description clearly states it is a physical implant made from PEEK-Optima® with "teeth" or other engagement members, indicating it is a hardware device.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health.
  • Device Description and Intended Use: The provided text clearly describes a surgical implant (a wedge system made of PEEK) intended for internal bone fixation in the ankle and foot. It is used within the body to stabilize fractures, fusions, or osteotomies.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Activity: There is no mention of this device being used to analyze samples or provide diagnostic information about a patient's condition based on those samples. Its function is purely mechanical support and fixation.

Therefore, based on the provided information, the Tyber Medical PEEK and TyPEEK Wedge Systems are surgical implants, not In Vitro Diagnostics.

§ 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.
