The device description explicitly states that the system contains "several physical and digital outputs including patient-specific anatomical models, templates, and guides (physical outputs)" and also includes "Stainless Steel Drill Inserts". These are physical components, not solely software.
Based on the provided information, the VSP® Orthopedics System is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the system is used as a surgical instrument to assist in preoperative planning and guiding surgical procedures. This is a direct interaction with the patient's body during surgery, not an in vitro test performed on samples taken from the body.
- Device Description: The description focuses on physical and digital outputs used for surgical planning and guidance (anatomical models, templates, guides, surgical plans). It also includes physical drill inserts used during surgery. None of these are components of an in vitro diagnostic test.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), detecting specific analytes, or providing diagnostic information based on laboratory testing.
The device is a surgical planning and guidance system, which falls under the category of medical devices used in surgical procedures, not in vitro diagnostics.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
- Operational Qualification: A process operational qualification was performed to assess the manufacturing process over the range of allowable process parameters. All test method acceptance criteria were met.
- Performance Qualification: A process performance qualification was conducted to assess the manufacturing process repeatability at nominal parameters. All test method acceptance criteria were met.
- Cleaning Validation: A cleaning validation was performed in accordance with AAMI TIR 30. Following soiling and cleaning of the subject device, bioburden, protein levels, and hemoglobin levels were exampled. All test method acceptance criteria were met.
- Sterilization Validation: Steam sterilization validations were performed for the dynamic-air-removal cycle in accordance with ISO 17665-1:2006 to a sterility assurance level (SAL) of 10-6 using the biological indicator (BI) overkill method. All test method acceptance criteria were met.
- Biocompatibility Validation: Biocompatibility endpoints were evaluated in accordance with ISO 10993-1. Sensitization, irritation, and acute systemic toxicity testing conducted on the subject device manufactured from Accura ClearVue are within the pre-defined acceptance criteria. The results of the testing adequately address biocompatibility for the output device and it's intended use.
- Shelf Life Validation: A shelf life validation was performed to ensure Accura ClearVue anatomical model outputs maintain functionality following a shelf life of 3 months.
- Clinical Performance Data: Clinical testing was not necessary for the determination of substantial equivalence.
All process and verification and validation testing, which were conducted as a result of risk analyses and design impact assessments, showed conformity to pre-established specifications and acceptance criteria. The acceptance criteria was established in support of device performance, and testing demonstrated substantial equivalence of the system to the predicate device.

§ 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.

Predicate device:
- VSP® Orthopedics System, 3D Systems (K190044)
5. DESCRIPTION OF THE DEVICE
The VSP® Orthopedics System is intended to assist a surgeon with pre-operative planning and transfer of the pre-operative plan to the surgery in orthopedic procedures. The system contains several physical and digital outputs including patient-specific anatomical models, templates, and guides (physical outputs); and patient-specific surgical plans and digital files (digital or documentation outputs).
Outputs of the VSP® Orthopedics System are designed with physician input and reviewed by the physician prior to finalization and distribution.
The VSP® Orthopedics System also contains Stainless Steel Drill Inserts (VSP® Orthopedics System Accessories) which are intended to be used by the physician to guide drilling activities during the
4
surgical procedure. The inserts fit into a standard hole in the cutting / drill guides and can be used across all VSP® Orthopedics System guides and templates.
6. INTENDED USE
The VSP® Orthopedics System is intended to be used as a surgical instrument to assist in preoperative planning and/or in guiding the marking of bone and/or in guiding surgical instruments in non-acute, non-joint replacing osteotomies for adult patients in the distal femur, tibia, and nonsacrum pelvis.
7. COMPARISON OF TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS WITH THE PREDICATE DEVICE
The intended use and technological characteristics of the subject device are either identical or substantially equivalent to the predicate device (VSP® Orthopedics System), differing only in the expansion of materials included within the VSP® Orthopedics System for anatomic models. The potential impact on substantial equivalence of each technological difference was addressed by risk analysis and verification and validation testing.
Similarities to Predicate
The inputs to the subject device are identical to those of the predicate device. System outputs of the subject and predicate device comprise both digital and physical outputs which can include patientspecific anatomical models, and guides for the purpose of assisting the surgeon during maxillofacial surgeries. The subject device and the predicate device are both intended to be generated by trained personnel, in a non-medical manufacturing or office environment, with active support from the surgeon. The subject device uses the same technologies as the predicate device. These include image transfer and manipulation via software that is subsequently used for 3D printing of anatomical models and guides for surgical planning. The subject and predicate device use the same software components for the digital workflow. There has been no change to the sterilization process for the surgical guides produced by the subject device. The subject device serves the same patient population as the predicate device.
Differences to Predicate
One new material is presented in the modified system and makes up the changes presented within this Traditional 510(k) submission. The material, SLA printing resin Accura ClearVue, is being added to the system for anatomical models.
8. SUMMARY OF PERFORMANCE TESTING
The testing outlined below was intended to show that the output of the design and development process demonstrated compliance with the device specifications. Non-clinical testing was conducted to prove the subject device performs in accordance with its intended use and is substantially equivalent to the listed predicate device.
