No
The summary describes a system of plates and screws for bone fixation and does not mention any AI or ML components.
Yes
The device is indicated for "fixation of fractures, arthrodesis and reconstruction of bones," which directly addresses a disease or condition (fractures, bone damage) and aims to restore function, meeting the definition of a therapeutic device.
No
The device description indicates that the ANTHEM™ Fracture System is "a family of plates and screws designed to be used for internal bone fixation" for fractures, arthrodesis, and reconstruction. This describes a therapeutic device used for treatment, not a diagnostic one.
No
The device description explicitly states it is a family of plates and screws, which are physical hardware components used for internal bone fixation.
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 ANTHEM™ Fracture System is for the fixation of fractures, arthrodesis and reconstruction of bones. This is a surgical procedure performed in vivo (within the body).
- Device Description: The device is described as a family of plates and screws designed for internal bone fixation. These are implants used within the body.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue, etc.) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
IVD devices are used to perform tests on samples taken from the body, while the ANTHEM™ Fracture System is a surgical implant used to treat bone fractures directly within the body.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The ANTHEM™ Fracture System is indicated for fixation of fractures, arthrodesis and reconstruction of bones for the appropriate size of the device to be used in adult patients, including the clavicle, scapula, humerus, radius, ulpa, small bones (metacarpals, metatarsals, phalanges), wrist, pelvis, fibula, ankle, and foot. Small fragment and distal fibula plates may be used in all pediatric subgroups (except neonates) and small stature adults. Distal radius plates may be used in adolescents (12-21 years of age).

Summary of Performance Studies
Performance of the ANTHEM™ Fracture System plates and screws were evaluated in accordance with ASTM F543, F382, and F2193. Engineering analysis and bending strength tests were conducted for the plates and screws, and pullout strength and insertion/removal torque tests were conducted for the screws. Performance data demonstrates substantial equivalence to the predicate devices. Bacterial endotoxin testing (BET) was conducted in accordance with ANSI/AAMI ST-72:2011.

§ 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.
