(113 days)
No
The summary describes a mechanical orthopedic implant system for fracture fixation and does not mention any software, algorithms, or data processing capabilities that would indicate the use of AI or ML.
Yes
The X-BOLT® Hip Fracture Fixation System is explicitly stated to be "intended for use in fracture fixation," which is a therapeutic function addressing a medical condition (fractures).
No
The X-BOLT® Hip Fracture Fixation System is described as a "single use device intended for long-term (greater than 30 days) implantation into the femur or proximal femur" for fracture fixation. It is a surgical implant used therapeutically to fix fractures, not to diagnose a condition.
No
The device description clearly outlines physical hardware components such as nails, plates, screws, and bolts, indicating it is a hardware medical device for fracture fixation.
No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health. This information is used for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
- Device Description: The X-BOLT® Hip Fracture Fixation System is a surgical implant designed to fix bone fractures in the femur. It is a physical device that is implanted into the body.
- Intended Use: The intended use is for fracture fixation, which is a surgical procedure to stabilize broken bones. This is a therapeutic intervention, not a diagnostic test performed on a specimen.
The description clearly indicates that this is a medical device used for surgical treatment, not for testing biological samples.
