No
The description focuses on computer-assisted navigation, measurement, and display of anatomical information, without mentioning AI or ML algorithms for analysis, prediction, or decision support.
No
The device is a computer-controlled surgical navigation system intended to assist surgeons in determining reference alignment axes and facilitating the accurate positioning of implants during orthopedic surgical procedures, rather than directly treating a disease or condition.
No.
Explanation: The device is described as a computer-assisted surgical navigation system that helps surgeons determine reference alignment axes and facilitates accurate implant positioning. While it provides "positional information," it does not diagnose a disease or condition. Instead, it assists in the surgical procedure itself.
No
The device description explicitly mentions a "palm-sized computer module and reference sensor" and "sterile, single use pins," indicating the presence of hardware components beyond just software.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the system is "intended to assist the surgeon in determining reference alignment axes in relation to anatomical and instructures during stereotactic orthopedic surgical procedures." It facilitates the "accurate positioning of implants" and aids in "controlling leg length discrepancy." This describes a surgical navigation and guidance system used during a surgical procedure on a patient.
- Device Description: The description reinforces this by calling it a "non-invasive computer assisted surgical navigation system for use in knee and hip arthroplasty procedures." It measures and displays angular and positional changes.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: An IVD is a medical device used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health status. This device does not perform any such tests on biological samples. It interacts directly with the patient's anatomy during surgery.
Therefore, the OrthAlign Plus® system and its associated components are surgical navigation and guidance devices, not In Vitro Diagnostics.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
Performance testing of the packaging materials confirm that the OrthAlign® Sterile Pin Packs can be used according to its intended use. The packaging has been verified and validated according to OrthAlign's procedures for product design and development. The sterilization of the product has been validated. Performance testing included:
- Environmental conditioning and distribution simulation
- Package integrity testing (visual, dye penetration test, and peel strength testing)
This testing demonstrates that the pins and markers are as safe and effective as the predicate device. This testing regime demonstrates that the modified device is substantially equivalent to the legally marketed predicate device, for its intended use in detecting, measuring, and displaying angular and positional measurement changes in a triaxial format. The information provided by OrthAlign in this 510(k) notification confirms that the modified OrthAlign Plus® instruments are substantially equivalent to the predicate device, the OrthAlign Plus® System (K171780).

Dear Karyl Haskell:
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. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database located at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. 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.
