Device Description
The Arzzt 3.5/4.5 Small & Large Fragments System consist of a variety of plates designed for specific bone areas, with orifices to receive either locking or non-locking screws. The screws are can be total or partially threaded and cannulated or not, some are self-tapping and they can be with or without locking features. All plates and screws may be manufactured in either stainless steel or titanium.
More Information

No
The 510(k) summary describes a system of plates and screws for fracture fixation and mentions only engineering analyses for performance studies. There is no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or data sets typically associated with AI/ML device submissions.

Yes
The device is indicated for fixation of fractures and nonunions, which is a therapeutic intervention aimed at restoring function and healing.

No
The device description indicates that the Arzzt 3.5/4.5 Small & Large Fragment Systems are used for fixation of fractures and nonunions, which is a therapeutic function rather than a diagnostic one.

No

The device description clearly outlines physical components like plates and screws made of stainless steel or titanium, indicating it is a hardware-based medical device.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states "fixation of fractures, and nonunions of the humerus, radius, ulna, femur, and tibia." This describes a surgical implant used to stabilize bones, not a test performed on samples taken from the body to diagnose a condition.
  • Device Description: The description details plates and screws made of stainless steel or titanium, designed for surgical implantation. This is consistent with a medical device used in surgery, not an IVD.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The document does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
    • Analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
    • Detecting or measuring substances in those samples
    • Providing information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening

The Arzzt 3.5/4.5 Small & Large Fragment Systems is a surgical implant used for orthopedic procedures.

Summary of Performance Studies

We performed engineering analyses comparing the static bending and static torsional yield strengths of the Arzzt blocking plates to the predicate devices proving to be as strong as the predicate devices. For the screws, we performed engineering analyses comparing the maximum shear stress and thread of the Arzzt blocking and cortical screws to the predicate device.

§ 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 Ms. Luzak:

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.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies.

13. Test Performed:

We performed engineering analyses comparing the static bending and static torsional yield strengths of the Arzzt blocking plates to the predicate devices proving to be as strong as the predicate devices. For the screws, we performed engineering analyses comparing the maximum shear stress and thread of the Arzzt blocking and cortical screws to the predicate device.

14. Standards:

• ASTM F-983-86 Standard Practice for Permanent Marking of Orthopedic Implant Components • ASTM F543-07 Standard Specifications And Test Methods For Metallic Medical Bone Screws • ISO 5832-1:2007 Implants for surgery -- Metallic materials -- Part 1: Wrought stainless steel • ISO 5832-3:1996. Implants for surgery - Metallic materials - Part 3: Wrought titanium 6-aluminium 4vanadium allov The Arzzt Plates & Screw System met the requirements of the above standards.

  1. Substantial Equivalence: The Arzzt 3.5 / 4.5 Small & Large Fragments System has an equivalent intended use, target population, anatomical sites, materials, biocompatibility, as well performance and properties as Synthes (USA) 3.5 mm and 4.5 mm Locking Compression Plate (LCP) System with Expanded Indications and other predicates devices for fixation of bone fractures.

In considering the technological characteristics of the device compared to the predicate device, the Arzzt 3.5 / 4.5 Small & Large Fragments System has a solid design and the engineering analyses performed on the product demonstrate that the performance and properties are of Arzzt Plates & Screw System are substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
