No
The device description and intended use are for standard bone screws and washers, with no mention of AI/ML capabilities or image processing. The performance studies are engineering analyses and LAL testing, not AI/ML validation.
Yes
The device is described as "implants" designed for the "fixation of bone fractures, fusions and osteotomies," which are medical interventions aimed at treating a disease or condition (fractures, osteotomies) or repairing an injury, thus qualifying it as a therapeutic device.
No
This device is described as screws and washers for the fixation of bone fractures, fusions, and osteotomies. It is a therapy device, not a diagnostic one.
No
The device description explicitly states it consists of "screws and washers" and "implants" made of "Titanium alloy," which are physical hardware components.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is for the fixation of bone fractures, fusions, and osteotomies. This is a surgical procedure performed directly on the patient's body.
- Device Description: The device consists of screws and washers made of titanium alloy, designed to be implanted into bone.
- Function: The function is to fixate bone fragments.
In vitro diagnostics (IVDs) are medical devices used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body (such as blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information about a person's health. This device does not perform any such tests on biological samples. It is a surgical implant used for mechanical support and fixation within the body.

Summary of Performance Studies
Engineering analyses have been conducted in comparison with Large Screws Range of Newclip Technics (K160617). LAL testing was performed to demonstrate that the subject device meets the endotoxin limit of
§ 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. Webb:
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. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR
1
Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting (reporting of medical devicerelated adverse events) (21 CFR 803); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801), please contact the Division of Industry and Consumer Education (DICE) at its toll-free number (800) 638-2041 or (301) 796-7100 or at its Internet address
