Intended Use
MCI - Neuro Fixation System is indicated for use in selective trauma of the cranial skeleton, cranial surgery and reconstructive procedure.
Device Description
The MCI – Neuro Fixation System is composed of plates (including burr hole covers), screws, and meshes. The bone plates and meshes are made from commercially pure titanium (ASTM F67) and the bone screws are manufactured from titanium alloy - Ti-6Al-4V (ASTM F136) and are available in different sizes and shapes, according to the site of the implantation and the extension of the fracture. The surface of plates, meshes and screws are colored-anodized. MCI - Neuro Fixation System devices are for single use. The devices are provided non-sterile and must be properly sterilized before use, according to the recommendations provided in the Instructions for Use. The devices must only be used by qualified surgeons mastering the surgical technique, having been trained and qualified in cranial surgery.
More Information

No
The device description and performance studies focus on the mechanical properties and materials of the fixation system components (plates, screws, meshes). There is no mention of software, algorithms, image processing, or any terms related to AI/ML.

Yes.

The device is composed of plates, screws, and meshes used for fixation in cranial reconstructive procedures, directly addressing a medical condition (trauma, surgery) by providing structural support.

No

The device description indicates that the MCI - Neuro Fixation System is composed of plates, screws, and meshes used for cranial surgery and reconstructive procedures. It is an implantable system used for fixation, not for diagnosing conditions.

No

The device description explicitly states it is composed of physical components like plates, screws, and meshes made from titanium, which are hardware.

Based on the provided information, the MCI - Neuro Fixation System is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for "selective trauma of the cranial skeleton, cranial surgery and reconstructive procedure." This describes a surgical intervention on the body, not a test performed on samples taken from the body.
  • Device Description: The device is composed of plates, screws, and meshes made of titanium. These are physical implants used to fix bone.
  • Function: The device's function is to provide structural support and fixation to the cranial skeleton. This is a mechanical function within the body.
  • Lack of IVD characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens (like blood, tissue, or urine) outside of the body to provide information about a physiological state, health, or disease.

In summary, the MCI - Neuro Fixation System is a surgical implant used for cranial bone fixation, which falls under the category of medical devices, but not specifically In Vitro Diagnostic devices.

  • Metallographic Test (ASTM F67-13): The material complied with the specifications set forth in the applied standard.
  • Metallographic Test (ASTM F136-13): The material complied with the specifications set forth in the applied standard.
  • Cyclic polarization tests (ASTM F2129-19 a): The devices have high resistance to initiation and to the propagation of localized corrosion.
  • Cycle Bend Testing of Metallic Bone Plates (ASTM F382-17 Annex A.1):
    • Structural Stiffness (Ele) of a bone plate: 0.003 Nm² for both subject and reference devices.

    • Maximum force: Reference device screw 46.71 N, subject device screw 45.54 N.
    • Key Results: A maximum force variation of less than 2.5% was observed between reference and subject device and therefore they were considered equivalent.
  • Driving torque testing (ASTM F543-17 Annex A.2):
    • Subject device: insertion torque 0.05 Nm, removal torque 0.02 Nm.
    • Reference device: insertion torque 0.09 Nm, removal torque 0.03 Nm.

The test was performed in ambient

OBJECTIVE: To determine the following
four-point bending properties (static) of
metallic bone plate: | The Structural Stiffness (Ele) of a bone
plate, is the bone plate normalized
effective bending stiffness. The test
reports showed a Structural Stiffness of
0.003 Nm² for the subject and
reference devices.

The Bending Stiffness (K) of a bone

linear elastic portion of the load versus
load-point displacement curve. The
test reports show that the reference
device plate Bending Stiffness was 70.4 |
| | - Structural Stiffness

  • Stiffness
  • Bending Strength
  • Proof Load | N/mm and to the subject device plate
    75.7 N/mm. |
    | | | The Bending Strength (R) of a bone
    plate, is the bending moment
    necessary to produce a 0.2 % offset
    displacement in the bone plate when
    tested as the standard prescription.
    The test reports showed a Bending
    Strength of 0.04 Nm for the subject
    and reference devices. |
    | | | The proof load (P) is the applied load at
    the intersection point of line. BC with
    the load versus load-point
    displacement curve. The test reports
    show a reference device plate Proof
    Load of
    16.08 N and to the subject device plate
    of 15.74 N. |
    | | | The above results allow the conclusion
    that the subject device worst case plate
    proved to be slightly stiffer and
    mechanically resistant than the
    reference device K944565 and
    therefore, can be considered
    equivalents for the performance
    standpoint. |
    | Screw Torsion
    yield Test | Applied Standard ASTM F543-17 Annex
    A.1. | The table A5.5 of the standard ASTM
    F543-17 - Standard Specification and
    Test Methods for Metallic Medical Bone
    Screws establish that the Screw type 1.5
    should presents minimum Torsional
    Strength of 0.2 Nm. The worst case of
    the device in question and the reference
    device K944565 met the requirement of
    the applied standard. |
    | | Testing machine: Torsion Equipment.
    The test was performed in ambient
    conditions (ambient air at room
    temperature. | |
    | | OBJECTIVE: To determine the following
    torsional properties of bone screw:
    Torsional Yield Strength
    Maximum Torque | The Torsion test reports show the
    reference device screws presented a
    maximum torque 0.28 Nm, while the
    subject screws presented a maximum
    torque of 0.29 Nm. Both tested screws
    (subject and reference device)
    accomplish the standard requirements
    and therefore can be considered
    equivalents. |
    | | According to the ASTM F543-17
    Standard, the specimen needs to be
    placed in the holding device so that five
    threads, below the head of the screw,
    are exposed outside the holding device.
    The screws that were evaluated do not
    attend this condition because they are
    too small. So, the "Breaking Angle" | |
    | | | |
    | | request is not applicable in this case. | |
    | Pull out testing | Applied Standard ASTM F543-17 Annex A.3.

OBJECTIVE: Determine axial pullout strength of bone screw | The test reports show for the reference device screw a maximum force of 46.71 N, and for the subject device screw of 45.54 N. A maximum force variation of less than 2.5% was observed between reference and subject device and therefore they were considered equivalent. |
| Driving torque testing | Applied Standard ASTM F543-17 Annex A.2.

OBJECTIVE: To determine the driving torque of bone screw

Testing machine: Torsion Equipment.

The test was performed in ambient conditions (ambient air at room temperature. | The driving torque testing shows for the subject device an insertion torque of 0.05 Nm and a removal torque of 0.02 Nm. The reference device has presented an insertion and removal torque of 0.09 Nm and 0.03 Nm, respectively. For both cases, subject and reference, the insertion and removal torque are below than the Torsional Yield Strength. Therefore, considering the overall results of mechanical performance, the behavior of the subject and reference device can be deemed equivalent. |
