No
The summary describes a mechanical screw for bone fixation and does not mention any software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate the use of AI or ML.

No
Explanation: A therapeutic device is designed to treat a disease or condition. This device is a screw used for bone fixation and reconstruction, which is a restorative rather than a therapeutic function in this context. While it aids in recovery, its primary function is mechanical support, not direct treatment of a disease.

No
The device is described as "Snap-Off Self-Compressive Screws" for the "fixation of bone reconstruction" and "bone fractures" in forefoot surgery. Its purpose is to provide physical support and fixation, not to diagnose medical conditions or identify diseases.

No

The device description explicitly states it consists of screws made of titanium alloy, which are 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, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Device Description and Intended Use: The description clearly states that the Snap-Off Self-Compressive Screws are intended for the fixation of bone reconstruction and fractures in forefoot surgery. This is a surgical implant used directly on the body, not for testing samples taken from the body.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The document does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
    • Analyzing biological samples.
    • Providing diagnostic information based on sample analysis.
    • Reagents, calibrators, or controls.

This device is a surgical implant, falling under a different category of medical devices than IVDs.

§ 888.3040 Smooth or threaded metallic bone fixation fastener.

(a)
Identification. A smooth or threaded metallic bone fixation fastener is a device intended to be implanted that consists of a stiff wire segment or rod made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum and stainless steel, and that may be smooth on the outside, fully or partially threaded, straight or U-shaped; and may be either blunt pointed, sharp pointed, or have a formed, slotted head on the end. It may be used for fixation of bone fractures, for bone reconstructions, as a guide pin for insertion of other implants, or it may be implanted through the skin so that a pulling force (traction) may be applied to the skeletal system.(b)
Classification. Class II.

Dear Mr. J. D. 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.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls.
