No
The device description and performance studies focus on the mechanical properties and design of the physical implant and instruments, with no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate AI/ML. The imaging mentioned is for visualization of the physical markers, not for analysis or interpretation.
Yes
The device is indicated for the treatment of various proximal femur fractures, which implies it is used to stabilize and aid in the healing of these fractures, serving a therapeutic purpose.
No
The device is a system of nails and screws designed for the treatment of femur fractures, not for diagnosing them. Its purpose is to fix fractures rather than to identify or characterize a medical condition.
No
The device description explicitly states that the system includes nails, screws, and instruments, which are physical hardware components.
Based on the provided information, 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, or tissue) to provide information about a person's health.
- Device Description and Intended Use: The description clearly states that the Piccolo Composite Proximal Femur Nails are implants used for the surgical treatment of bone fractures in the proximal femur. They are physical devices inserted into the body to stabilize bones.
- No Mention of Samples or Testing: The description and intended use do not involve the analysis of biological samples or diagnostic testing.
Therefore, the Piccolo Composite Proximal Femur Nailing System falls under the category of a surgical implant or orthopedic device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
The Piccolo Composite Proximal Femur Nails are indicated for the treatment of stable and unstable proximal femur fractures (pertrochanteric, intertrochanteric high subtrochanteric fractures, and combinations of these fractures), including, fractures resulting from trauma, nonunions, pathological fractures, impending pathological fractures, tumor resections, and revision procedures.

Device Description
The Piccolo Composite Nailing System includes nails, screws and a set of instruments.
The Piccolo Composite nail indicated for treatment of the proximal femur is a cylindrical rod. Nail mid-shaft diameter is 11mm. with the proximal end diameter being 17mm. Nail lengths are 180mm, 200mm, and in the range of 300 - 460mm. The nail provides for holes at the proximal and distal sections, designed for the insertion of a lag screw and interlocking screws. The lag screw is of 10mm diameter, with its length being in the range of 80mm to 110mm. The nails and lag screws are made of carbon fiber reinforced polymer and incorporate small amount of titanium alloy. Tantalum markers are embedded within the carbon fiber reinforced polymer, where applicable, to enable visualization during imaging. The distal screws are made of titanium alloy.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
Performance characteristics for the Piccolo Composite Proximal Femur Nailing System components included static and dynamic bending of construct, rotational stiffness of construct, lag screw cutout, lag screw pullout, proximal and distal shell attachment strength, locking screw pullout and torque to failure, and are comparable to those of predicate devices (as applicable), thus demonstrating that the device is safe and effective for its intended use.

Dear Yael Rubin:
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.
