More Information

No
The device description and performance studies focus on mechanical properties and structural components, with no mention of AI or ML.

Yes
The device is used for stabilization and fixation of fractures, arthrodesis, and treatment of non-unions and mal-unions, which are all therapeutic interventions for orthopedic conditions.

No
The device, an external fixation system, is used for stabilization and fixation of fractures and for orthopedic surgery. It is a treatment device, not a diagnostic one as it does not gather or interpret data to identify a medical condition.

No

The device description explicitly states it is an "external fixation device consisting of bone pins, connecting rods, clamps, posts, and related accessories," which are physical hardware components.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information about a person's health.
  • Device Description: The ONX Large External Fixation System is described as an "external fixation device consisting of bone pins, connecting rods, clamps, posts, and related accessories used for the management of bone fractures and reconstructive orthopedic surgery."
  • Intended Use: The intended use is for the "Stabilization/fixation of... Long bone fractures... Fractures of pelvis and ankle... Peri-articular and intra-articular fractures... Joint arthrodesis... Non-unions and mal-unions... Osteotomies."

This device is clearly used externally on the body to stabilize bones and joints, not to analyze samples taken from the body. It is a surgical/orthopedic device, not an IVD.

§ 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.

Dear Ken West:

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.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part

K213905 - 510(K) SUMMARY

DESCRIPTION OF THE DEVICE SUBJECT TO PREMARKET NOTIFICATION:

The ONX Large External Fixation System is an external fixation device consisting of bone pins, connecting rods, clamps, posts, and related accessories used for the management of bone fractures and reconstructive orthopedic surgery. The device is a modular system designed to provide a broad range of frame construction options. The connecting rods are made from unidirectional carbon fiber reinforced epoxy. Pins, components, and posts are made from materials conforming to ASTM F136 and ASTM F138.

INDICATIONS FOR USE

The ONX Large External Fixation System is indicated for the following:

  • Stabilization/fixation of: ●
    • 0 Long bone fractures in tibia and femur
    • Fractures of pelvis and ankle o
    • o Peri-articular and intra-articular fractures of knee and ankle
  • Joint arthrodesis
  • Non-unions and mal-unions ●
  • Osteotomies

TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS

The intended use, design principles, materials and overall dimensions of the subject and predicate devices are substantially the same. Both the subject and predicate devices are intended to stabilize traumatic or surgically created instabilities of the pelvis and lower extremities through the use of implantable pins and external components in a variety of sizes. These components are used to create a rigid construct (frame) suitable to the individual needs of the patient. As with one or more of the predicate devices, the implantable bone pins are made from titanium alloy or stainless steel and are distally threaded to enable unilateral or bilateral frame construction.

4

Any differences in the technological characteristics between the subject and predicate devices do not raise new issues of safety or efficacy.

Data is provided to demonstrate substantial equivalence including engineering analysis of the subject and predicate designs.

Overall, ONX Large External Fixation System has the following similarities to the predicate devices:

  • Has the same intended use,
  • Uses the same operating principle, ●
  • Incorporates the same design,
  • Incorporates the same or very similar materials, and ●
  • Has similar packaging and sterilized using the same materials and processes.
