Intended Use
The DePuy Synthes 3.5 mm Intrapelvic Acetabular Plates are indicated for fractures of the acetabulum in adults and adolescents (greater than 12 through 21 years of age) where all growth plates within the acetabulum are fused.
Device Description
The DePuy Synthes 3.5 mm Intrapelvic Acetabular System can be used to treat fractures of the acetabulum involving the anterior column, with or without involvement of the posterior column, including the quadrilateral surface (QS). The subject system is comprised of four plate types per anatomic side, left and right, (Large Extended, Small Extended, Large Standard and Small Standard) which are designed to accept the following existing cortex screws: 3.5 mm Cortex Screws, 3.5 mm Pelvic Cortex Screws, 3.5 mm Cortex Screws with low-profile head, 3.5 mm Stardrive Cortex Screws, and 4.5 mm Cortex Screws. The implants are available in a sterile configuration and are offered in Stainless Steel (SSt). In total the system is comprised of eight different plate designs. Each plate configuration consists of a long, slender suprapectineal portion that is intended to be placed along the anterior column, superior to the pelvic brim and a trapezoidal quadrilateral surface portion that is intended to be placed against the medial aspect of the posterior column, overlapping at least a portion of the quadrilateral surface. The suprapectineal portion is divided into anterior and posterior segments that are configured to mimic existing 3.5 mm reconstruction plates and a central segment, to which the quadrilateral surface portion is connected by two connecting bars.
More Information

No
The device description focuses on the mechanical design and materials of the plates and screws, with no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate AI/ML. The performance studies are mechanical and material testing, not related to algorithmic performance.

Yes
The device is an implantable plate system designed to treat fractures, which is a therapeutic intervention.

No.
The device is a surgical implant designed to treat fractures of the acetabulum, not to diagnose a condition.

No

The device description clearly outlines physical implants (plates and screws) made of Stainless Steel, intended for surgical implantation. This is a hardware medical device, not software.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the device is for the treatment of fractures of the acetabulum. This is a surgical intervention, not a diagnostic test performed on samples taken from the body.
  • Device Description: The device is described as plates and screws used for fixing bone fractures. This is a physical implant, not a reagent, instrument, or system intended for in vitro examination of specimens.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), detecting diseases or conditions through in vitro methods, or providing diagnostic information.

In summary, the DePuy Synthes 3.5 mm Intrapelvic Acetabular Plates are a surgical implant used for bone fixation, which falls under the category of medical devices, but not In Vitro Diagnostic devices.

| Device Description | The DePuy Synthes 3.5 mm Intrapelvic Acetabular System can be used to treat fractures of the
acetabulum involving the anterior column, with or without involvement of the posterior column,
including the quadrilateral surface (QS). The subject system is comprised of four plate types
per anatomic side, left and right, (Large Extended, Small Extended, Large Standard and Small
Standard) which are designed to accept the following existing cortex screws: 3.5 mm Cortex
Screws, 3.5 mm Pelvic Cortex Screws, 3.5 mm Cortex Screws with low-profile head, 3.5 mm
Stardrive Cortex Screws, and 4.5 mm Cortex Screws. The implants are available in a sterile
configuration and are offered in Stainless Steel (SSt). In total the system is comprised of eight
different plate designs. Each plate configuration consists of a long, slender suprapectineal
portion that is intended to be placed along the anterior column, superior to the pelvic brim and
a trapezoidal quadrilateral surface portion that is intended to be placed against the medial aspect
of the posterior column, overlapping at least a portion of the quadrilateral surface. The
suprapectineal portion is divided into anterior and posterior segments that are configured to
mimic existing 3.5 mm reconstruction plates and a central segment, to which the quadrilateral
surface portion is connected by two connecting bars. |
| Indications for use | The DePuy Synthes 3.5 mm Intrapelvic Acetabular Plates are indicated for fractures of the
acetabulum in adults and adolescents (greater than 12 through 21 years of age) where all
growth plates within the acetabulum are fused. |
| Contraindications | Not intended for patients with active growth plates. |
| Comparison to
predicate | The subject device has the same intended use as the predicate device. The indications of the
subject system are a subset of the indications of the predicate device. |
| | The subject devices and the predicate device are metallic plates of similar design intended for
bone fracture fixation. Both subject and predicate devices are anatomically contoured plates.
Both subject and predicate devices have similar hole specifications and are compatible with the
same screw types. |
| | Additional features are found in the subject Acetabular Plates that are not found in the predicate
Low Profile Reconstruction Plates. However, these features do not alter the fundamental
technology of the device and therefore do not raise new issues of safety and effectiveness: |
| | Trapezoidal quadrilateral surface portion that is intended to be placed against the medial aspect of the posterior column overlapping at least a portion of the quadrilateral surface |
| | Non-locking screw holes on the quadrilateral surface portion designed to target bone in the sciatic buttress |
| | A non-locking oblique screw hole in the distal portion of the quadrilateral surface designed to target screw anchorage within the ischium while avoiding the acetabulum Additional holes to facilitate plate placement with instrumentation as well as in-situ and ex-situ contouring |
| | |
| | It can be concluded that the features of the subject device are substantially equivalent to the
predicate device based on the similarities in intended use and design. |
| Non-clinical
Performance Data | Mechanical testing of a worst-case construct under static and dynamic physiologic loading
conditions have been performed to compare the proposed DePuy Synthes 3.5 mm Acetabular
Plates to the predicate device. The results of this testing support that the mechanical
performance of the subject device is non-inferior to that of the predicate device. |
| | Magnetic Resonance compatibility testing has been performed to establish MR Conditional
parameters for the subject DePuy Synthes 3.5 mm Intrapelvic Acetabular System. |
| | Endotoxin testing has been performed using the LAL test method to establish that the subject
DePuy Synthes 3.5 mm Acetabular System meets the specified endotoxin requirement of
20 EU/device. |
| Clinical
Performance Data | Clinical testing was not necessary for the determination of substantial equivalence. |
| Substantial
Equivalence | The subject device has the same intended use compared to the predicate device. |
| | The non-clinical performance data as well as the comparison of design features included in
this premarket notification demonstrate that any differences in technological characteristics of
the subject device compared to the predicate device do not raise any new issues related to
mechanical performance, safety or efficacy and can be labeled MR Conditional. The proposed
devices are at least as safe and effective as the predicate devices |
| | It is concluded that the information provided herein supports substantial equivalence of the
subject devices. |
