No
The device description and performance studies focus on mechanical components and material properties, with no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate AI/ML.

No.
This device is a plating system for fixation of fractures, fusions, osteotomies, and non-unions, which falls under surgical repair rather than a therapeutic treatment that alleviates existing disease or condition.

No

This device is a plating system used for the fixation of fractures, fusions, osteotomies, and non-unions of the radius and ulna. It is a treatment device, not a diagnostic one.

No

The device description explicitly lists physical components such as titanium alloy plates, screws, K-wires, and instrumentation, indicating it is a hardware-based medical device.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for the fixation of fractures, fusions, osteotomies, and non-unions of the radius and ulna. This is a surgical procedure performed directly on the patient's body.
  • Device Description: The device consists of plates, screws, K-wires, and instrumentation. These are all physical implants and tools used in surgery.
  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are devices used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) taken from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device does not interact with specimens outside the body.

This device is a surgical implant/instrumentation system used for orthopedic procedures.

§ 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.
