No
The document describes a system of bone plates and screws for fracture fixation and osteotomy, with no mention of AI or ML technology in the intended use, device description, or performance studies.
Yes.
The device is intended to draw bone fragments together to facilitate healing, stabilize fractures, and aid in joint fusions and reconstruction in adult patients. These actions are directly aimed at treating or alleviating a medical condition (bone fractures and related orthopedic issues), fitting the definition of a therapeutic device.
No
The device, the BioPro Foot Plating Systems, is described as an implantable bone plate and screw system intended for fixation of bones and bone fragments to facilitate healing. It is a treatment device, not a diagnostic one.
No
The device description clearly states that the BioPro Foot Plating Systems consist of bone plate and locking screw implant components made of titanium, along with ancillary instrumentation. These are physical hardware components, not software.
Based on the provided text, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) taken from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
- Device Description and Intended Use: The BioPro Foot Plating Systems are described as bone plates and screws intended for the fixation of bone fragments in the foot and ankle to facilitate healing. This is a surgical implant used directly on the patient's body, not for testing specimens outside the body.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: The text does not mention any analysis of biological samples, diagnostic testing, or providing information for diagnosis based on such testing.
Therefore, the BioPro Foot Plating Systems fall under the category of surgical implants or orthopedic devices, 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)
