The summary describes a bone graft substitute composed of specific materials and its intended use and performance studies. There is no mention of AI or ML technology in the device description, intended use, or performance evaluation sections.
Yes.
The device is a bone void filler that resorbs and is replaced with bone during the healing process, indicating it is used for therapeutic purposes to treat bony voids or gaps.
No
Explanation: The device is a bone graft substitute intended to fill bony voids or gaps, providing a framework for bone regrowth. It is not used to diagnose a condition or disease.
No
The device description clearly states the product is composed of physical materials (bioactive glass, boron bioactive glass, and bovine type I collagen) and is applied as a putty or molded into shape. This indicates a physical medical device, not a software-only one.
Based on the provided text, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the device is a "Bone Graft Substitute" indicated for filling "bony voids or gaps" in the skeletal system. This is a therapeutic use, not a diagnostic one.
- Device Description: The description details the composition and application of a material used to fill bone defects. This aligns with a therapeutic device, not a diagnostic one.
- Performance Studies: The performance studies focus on evaluating the device's ability to promote bone healing and its biocompatibility in animal models. These are relevant to a therapeutic bone graft substitute, not an IVD.
- Lack of Diagnostic Elements: There is no mention of the device being used to test samples from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue, etc.) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
IVD devices are used in vitro (outside the body) to examine specimens from the human body to provide information for diagnostic purposes. This device is used in vivo (inside the body) to treat a condition (bone voids).

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
The performance of the FIBERGRAFT® Aeridyan Matrix has been established by undertaking physical and chemical property evaluation studies, functional performance animal studies and biocompatibility tests. The physical and chemical property studies confirmed the in vitro functionality and bioactivity of the Aeridyan Matrix. The in vitro bioactivity test results have not been correlated to clinical performance. The biocompatibility of the FIBERGRAFT® Aeridyan Matrix has been demonstrated by ISO 10993 testing and the long history of clinical use of the bioactive glass material for the same intended use. In addition, the Aeridyan Matrix is composed of the same bioactive glass material and the same type and duration of patient as the predicates. Packaging evaluations, shelf life testing and real time aging testing were performed with passing results. Bacterial endotoxin testing was performed using the limulus amebocyte lysate (LAL) method and showed that the device meets the endotoxin limits of established guidelines.
The FIBERGRAFT® Aeridyan Matrix product was evaluated in a rabbit posterolateral spine fusion study to support device performance for its indications for use in the FIBERGRAFT® Aeridyan Matrix product was compared to the FIBERGRAFT® BG Matrix predicate device as well as controls. The animal study evaluated device performance in critical sized cancellous bone in the posterolateral spine of 71 skeletally mature rabbits. The performance was evaluated using radiographic, histomorphometric, and biomechanical data. Testing of the FIBERGRAFT® Aeridyan Matrix in the rabbit model is representative of the indications for use and range of anatomical sites proposed for the subject device. The results of the study through 26 weeks of follow-up demonstrated that the FIBERGRAFT® Aeridyan Matrix device performs substantially equivalently to the predicate device and positive control, and any minor technological differences between the device groups do not raise new types of safety or effectiveness concerns.
The FIBERGRAFT® Aeridyan Matrix product has also been evaluated in a rabbit femoral condyle defect study in skeletally mature rabbits to further support device performance for use in extremities and pelvis applications. The FIBERGRAFT® Aeridyan Matrix product was compared to the BG Matrix and NovaBone MacroFORM predicate and reference devices. The animal study evaluated device performance in critical sized defects in the distal femur of 44 skeletally mature rabbits. The performance was evaluated using radiographic, histological, and histomorphometric data. Testing of the FIBERGRAFT® Aeridyan Matrix in the rabbit model is representative of the indications for use and range of anatomical sites proposed for the subject device. The results of the study through 26 weeks of follow up demonstrated that the FIBERGRAFT® Aeridyan Matrix device performs substantially equivalently to the predicate and reference devices, and any minor technological differences between the device groups do not adversely impact performance.
Therefore, performance testing demonstrated that the FIBERGRAFT® Aeridyan Matrix device functions as intended and meets the requirements of class II bone void fillers as compared to the predicate device and reference devices.

Performance Data
The performance of the FIBERGRAFT® Aeridyan Matrix has been established by undertaking physical and chemical property evaluation studies, functional performance animal studies and biocompatibility tests. The physical and chemical property studies confirmed the in vitro functionality and bioactivity of the Aeridyan Matrix. The in vitro bioactivity test results have not been correlated to clinical performance. The biocompatibility of the FIBERGRAFT® Aeridyan Matrix has been demonstrated by ISO 10993 testing and the long history of clinical use of the bioactive glass material for the same intended use. In addition, the Aeridyan Matrix is composed of the same bioactive glass material and the same type and duration of patient as the predicates. Packaging evaluations, shelf life testing and real time aging testing were performed with passing results. Bacterial endotoxin testing was performed using the limulus amebocyte lysate (LAL) method and showed that the device meets the endotoxin limits of established guidelines.
The FIBERGRAFT® Aeridyan Matrix product was evaluated in a rabbit posterolateral spine fusion study to support device performance for its indications for use in the FIBERGRAFT® Aeridyan Matrix product was compared to the FIBERGRAFT® BG Matrix predicate device as well as controls. The animal study evaluated device performance in critical sized cancellous bone in the posterolateral spine of 71 skeletally mature rabbits.
