More Information

No
The summary describes a system of plates, screws, and surgical instruments for bone fixation, with no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or any software-driven analytical capabilities.

Yes
The device is indicated for "stabilization and fixation of fractures, revision procedures, joint fusion, osteotomies and reconstruction," which are therapeutic interventions.

No
The device is described as a plating system (plates, screws, and surgical instruments) used for stabilization and fixation of fractures and reconstruction of small bones, indicating a therapeutic or surgical purpose, not a diagnostic one.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "system of plates and screws and surgical instruments," which are physical hardware components. The performance studies also describe testing on these physical components.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the system is for the "stabilization and fixation of fractures, revision procedures, joint fusion, osteotomies and reconstruction of the small bones in the hand, wrist, foot and ankle". This describes a surgical procedure performed directly on the patient's body.
  • Device Description: The device is described as a "system of plates and screws and surgical instruments". These are physical implants and tools used in surgery.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) in vitro (outside the body) to provide information about a patient's health. IVDs are typically used for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening based on laboratory tests.

Therefore, the In2Bones USA LLC, CoLink™ Plating System is a surgical device used for orthopedic procedures, not an in vitro diagnostic 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. Focht:

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.

The In2Bones device and the predicate are both available in multiple sizes and various shapes. The plates are attached to bone using various diameter and length screws. The In2Bones USA CoLinkTM System is made from titanium alloy.

VII. Performance Data

Testing including bacterial endotoxin, static driving torque, static pullout, static torsion, screw/plate push through, static bending and pullout fixation were performed. The results of the testing demonstrate that the device is substantially equivalent to the predicate device identified.

VIII. Conclusions

The In2Bones USA CoLink™ Plating System when compared to the predicate have similar intended use and indications for use, technological characteristics, and principals of operation as the predicate device. Thus, the In2Bones USA Colink™ Plating System design characteristics do not raise any new types of questions of safety or effectiveness and thus is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
