The description focuses on the mechanical properties and materials of a surgical screw system and does not mention any software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate the use of AI/ML.
Yes.
The device is used for fracture fixation, fusions, osteotomies, and malunions, which falls under therapeutic indications.
No
The ARIX Cannulated Screw System is intended for fracture fixation, fusions, osteotomies, and malunions, not for diagnosing medical conditions.
No
The device description explicitly states it consists of physical components (cannulated screws and washers made of Titanium Alloy) and bench testing was performed on these physical components. There is no mention of software as the primary or sole component.
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 ARIX Cannulated Screw System is for "fracture fixation, fusions, osteotomies, and malunions of fragments of long bones...". This describes a surgical implant used in vivo (within the body) to physically stabilize and repair bone structures.
- Device Description: The description details the physical components (screws and washers) made of titanium alloy, designed for surgical implantation.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens derived 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 analyze biological samples. This device is a surgical implant used in vivo.

§ 888.3040 Smooth or threaded metallic bone fixation fastener.
(a)
Identification. A smooth or threaded metallic bone fixation fastener is a device intended to be implanted that consists of a stiff wire segment or rod made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum and stainless steel, and that may be smooth on the outside, fully or partially threaded, straight or U-shaped; and may be either blunt pointed, sharp pointed, or have a formed, slotted head on the end. It may be used for fixation of bone fractures, for bone reconstructions, as a guide pin for insertion of other implants, or it may be implanted through the skin so that a pulling force (traction) may be applied to the skeletal system.(b)

The results of this testing indicate that the ARIX Cannulated Screw System is equivalent to the predicate device.
Clinical Test Summary:
No clinical studies were considered necessary and performed.
8. Substantial Equivalence [21 CFR 807.92(b)(1) and 807.92]
Based on the submitted information in this premarket notification, the subject device is substantially equivalent to the predicate device in terms of:
- · Intended use
- · Technological characteristics (Design features, Material, Surface Treatment, Sterilization methods, Biocompatibility and Performance)
The subject device has met the performance, safety, and effectiveness of the device for its intended use.
9. Conclusion [21 CFR 807.92(b)(3)]
In all respects, the ARIX Cannulated Screw System is substantially equivalent to the legally marketed device. Above all, the subject device has equivalent intended use and technological characteristics. Further, nonclinical verification and validation to determine substantial equivalence provide additional evidence that subject device is substantially equivalent to the predicate device in terms of safety, efficacy, and performance.
