No
The device description and performance studies focus on the physical properties and standards compliance of a simple surgical wire, with no mention of AI/ML or related concepts.
No
The device, a Kirschner wire, is used for fixation of bone fractures and reconstruction, which are considered surgical procedures rather than therapeutic interventions aimed at curing or alleviating a disease.
No
The device description clearly states its intended use for "fixation of bone fractures, bone reconstruction, and as guide pins for insertion implants," which are therapeutic and procedural functions, not diagnostic.
No
The device description clearly states it is a physical stainless steel wire, not software.
No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections. They are used to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
- Device Description and Intended Use: The description clearly states that Kirschner wires are used for the fixation of bone fractures, bone reconstruction, and as guide pins for insertion implants. This is a surgical device used directly on the patient's bone, not for testing samples taken from the body.
The information provided about the device's material, size, point styles, and sterilization are all consistent with a surgical implant/instrument, not an IVD.

§ 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. Hills:
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.
