Intended Use
The Pro-X1™ Trochanteric Nailing System is intended for use in fracture fixation in the femur in adults with osteopenia or osteoporosis. The Pro-X1™ Trochanteric Nailing System is indicated for use in: - · Intertrochanteric and subtrochanteric fractures - · Segmental fractures - Comminuted fractures - Pathological fractures - · Fractures with bone loss - · Pseudoarthrosis, non-union, mal-union, and delayed union - · Surgically created defects such as osteotomies
Device Description
The Pro-X1" Trochanteric Nailing System is a single use device intended for long-term implantation into the femur. The Pro-X1™ Trochanteric Nailing System consists of the following components: - . Pro-X1™ Expanding Bolt: is a metal expanding hip bolt available in various lengths. - Pro-X1"" Trochanteric Nail: is a metal intramedullary (IM) nail which is designed ● to be used in conjunction with the Pro-X1"" Expanding Bolt to provide fixation of fractures of the femur. It is available in various lengths, in right and left configurations. - Set-Screw: The set-screw prevents the Pro-X1™ Expanding Bolt from rotating, while ● still allowing for dynamic movement. - Interlocking Screws: The interlocking screws are used in conjunction with the Pro-● X1" Trochanteric Nail to achieve distal fixation of the nail. The interlocking screws are available in various lengths.
More Information

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

Yes
The device is intended for fracture fixation of the femur, addressing conditions such as intertrochanteric, subtrochanteric, segmental, comminuted, and pathological fractures, as well as pseudoarthrosis, non-union, mal-union, delayed union, and surgically created defects. These applications are therapeutic as they involve treating or alleviating a disease or injury.

No

This device is a surgical implant designed for fracture fixation in the femur. It is used to treat existing conditions (fractures, pseudoarthrosis, etc.) rather than to diagnose them.

No

The device description explicitly lists multiple hardware components (expanding bolt, trochanteric nail, set-screw, interlocking screws) made of metal, intended for long-term implantation. This is a hardware-based medical device.

Based on the provided information, the Pro-X1™ Trochanteric Nailing System is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to provide information about a person's health.
  • Pro-X1™ Function: The Pro-X1™ Trochanteric Nailing System is a surgical implant intended for long-term implantation directly into the femur to fix fractures. It is a mechanical device used for structural support and stabilization within the body.
  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states fracture fixation in the femur. This is a therapeutic intervention, not a diagnostic test performed on a specimen outside the body.
  • Device Description: The components described (nail, bolt, screws) are all physical implants designed for surgical insertion.

Therefore, the Pro-X1™ Trochanteric Nailing System falls under the category of a surgical implant or orthopedic device, not an in vitro diagnostic device.
