No
The device description focuses on the material, configuration, and mechanical properties of a bone plate system and associated surgical instruments. There is no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate the use of AI/ML.
No
The ARIX Ankle Fibula Hook Plate System is for internal fixation of the distal fibula, which is a supportive and restorative function, not therapeutic.
No
This device is described as a system for internal fixation of the distal fibula, consisting of plates, screws, and surgical instruments. Its purpose is to physically stabilize a broken bone, which is a therapeutic function, not a diagnostic one. Diagnostic devices are used to identify or detect medical conditions.
No
The device description explicitly states it is a system of rigid fixation consisting of plates made of titanium and various manual surgical instruments. This indicates it is a hardware-based medical device, not software-only.
No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is "internal fixation of the distal fibula." This describes a surgical procedure to stabilize a bone fracture.
- Device Description: The device is a "rigid fixation consisting of plates in various configurations, shapes and sizes." This is a physical implant used in surgery.
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics (IVDs) are medical devices used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
The ARIX Ankle Fibula Hook Plate System is a surgical implant used in the body, not a device used to test samples from the body.

Device Description
The ARIX Ankle Fibula Hook Plate System is rigid fixation consisting of plates in various configurations, shapes and sizes, as follows:
Type/ Configuration: Hook Plate
Material: ASTM F67, Pure Titanium Gr4
The ARIX Ankle Fibula Hook Plate System is made of Pure Titanium Gr4 which meets ASTM F67, Standard Specification for Unalloyed Titanium, for Surgical Implant Applications, which are widely used for surgical implants with well-known biocompatibility
The plates vary essentially through different lengths and number of plate holes. The plate features locking holes and non-locking holes which accept 3.5mm cortex screws and locking screw. (Previously cleared K152158, K161864)
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.
ARIX Ankle Fibula Hook Plate System 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. The sterilization method is presented in the instruction, which was validated per ISO 17665-1: 2006 Sterilization of health care products - Moist heat - Part 1: Requirements for the development, validation, and routine control of a sterilization process for medical devices.

§ 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)
