The 510(k) summary describes a mechanical intramedullary nailing system and its components. There is no mention of software, algorithms, image processing, AI, ML, or any related concepts. The performance studies focus on material and mechanical properties.
Yes.
The device is used for treating fractures and stabilizing bones, which are therapeutic interventions.
No
The device is an intramedullary nailing system used for treating and stabilizing bone fractures, not for diagnosing them.
No
The device description clearly states that the GPC Intraheal Intramedullary Nailing System is manufactured using stainless steel or titanium materials and includes physical components like nails, locking bolts, end caps, and K-wires. These are all hardware components, not 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 GPC Intraheal Intramedullary Nailing System is for treating fractures of various bones. This is a therapeutic purpose, not a diagnostic one.
- Device Description: The device is described as intramedullary nails, locking bolts, end caps, and K-wires made of surgical implant materials. These are physical implants used to stabilize bone fractures.
- Lack of Diagnostic Function: There is no mention of the device being used to analyze samples (like blood, urine, or tissue) or to provide information about a patient's health status or disease.
- Performance Studies: The performance studies focus on the mechanical properties of the implants (bending, fatigue, torsion, pull-out), which are relevant to their function as bone fixation devices, not diagnostic tools.
IVD devices are used in vitro (outside the body) to examine specimens from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. The GPC Intraheal Intramedullary Nailing System is used in vivo (inside the body) for a therapeutic purpose (fixing fractures).

- . Indications may include fractures resulting from trauma, nonunion, pathological fractures, impending pathological fractures, tumor resections and revision procedures.
Elastic Nails:
The Elastic Nail is indicated for fixation of diaphyseal fractures of the medullary canal is narrow or flexibility of the implant is paramount. This includes upper extremity fractures and lower extremity fractures in paediatic or small statured patients. In paediatric application, the flexibility of the elastic nail allows it to be inserted at a point which avoids disruption of the bone growth plate.
K-Wires:
K-wires are indicated to perform as fixation and stabilization unit of bone fractures or as guide at insertion of implants into the skeletal system

Impending Pathologic Fractures, Nonunions and Malunions.
Proximal Hip Stabilizing Nail 3: The indications for Use of Proximal Hip Stabilizing Nail 3 are as given below:
Short Nail Indications: -
•Fixation of stable and unstable intertrochanteric fractures, including but not limited to nonunion, malunion and tumor resections
- Long Nail Indications:-
•Indications may include fractures resulting from trauma, nonunion, pathological fractures, impending pathological fractures, tumor resections and revision procedures.
Elastic Nails:
The Elastic Nail is indicated for fixation of diaphyseal fractures of the long bones where the medullary canal is narrow or flexibility of the implant is paramount. This includes upper extremity fractures in all patients and lower extremity fractures in paediatric or small statured patients. In paediation, the flexibility of the elastic nail allows it to be inserted at a point which avoids disruption of the bone growth plate.

CONCLUSION:
General, Safety and Performance conclusion:
From the available data available we can justify that the GPC Intraheal Intramedullary Nailing System are as safe, as effective and perform as same indications for use as that of already marketed predicate devices identified in a 3.of 510(k) summary.
Hence these devices can be considered safe and effective for their intended use.
