No
The device description focuses on mechanical components (plates, screws, instruments) and material properties. There is no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate the use of AI/ML.
Yes
The device is intended for the fixation of fractures and osteotomies, which is a therapeutic intervention to treat a medical condition.
No
The device is described as "rigid fixation consisting of plates and screws" intended for "fixation of complex intra- and extraarticular fractures and osteotomies of the distal tibia." This description indicates that it is a surgical implant for treatment, not a device used for diagnosis.
No
The device description explicitly details physical components made of titanium alloy, including plates, screws, and surgical instruments. It also describes bench testing of these physical components.
No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is for the fixation of bone fractures and osteotomies in the distal tibia. This is a surgical procedure performed directly on the patient's body.
- Device Description: The device consists of plates, screws, and surgical instruments. These are all physical implants and tools used in surgery.
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are devices used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device does not interact with such specimens.
The ARIX Ankle Distal Tibia System is a surgical implant/device used for orthopedic procedures.

Device Description
The ARIX Ankle Distal Tibia System is rigid fixation consisting of plates and screws in various configurations, shapes and sizes.
Plates are of Medial Type, Anterolateral Type, and T Type.
Screws include Cortical Screw (28-SO-L Series, 35-SO-L Series) and Locking Screw (28L-SO-L Series, 35L-SO-L Series).
The system components are made of ASTM F 136, Titanium Alloy (Ti-6Al-4V).
The plates vary essentially through different lengths and number of plate holes. The screws are self-tapping, which are applied with the reconstruction locking screws together. The Cortical Screws & locking screws are provided with diameter 2.8 mm to 3.5 mm and lengths from 8 mm to 80 mm.
ARIX Ankle Distal Tibia System is provided as Gold color which is casted according to the anodizing technique while apply 5 V electric energy to the titanium.
It also includes various manual surgical instruments, such as drill bits, counter sink, depth gauge, compression, drill guide, drill sleeve, guide pin, bender and screw driver handle.
The ARIX Ankle Distal Tibia System is not provided sterile. It is required to be sterilized via autoclave method to reach a SAL of 10-6 by the hospital prior to surgery.

§ 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)
