Intended Use
The EVOS Mini Plating System, excluding EVOS Patella Plates, is indicated for patients 12 – 21 and those over 21 years of age, as well as patients with osteopenic bone. The Smith & Nephew EVOS Mini Plating System is indicated for fracture fixation or reduction of small bones and small bone fragments. This system is also indicated for non-load bearing stabilization of bone fragments in long bones. The EVOS Patella Plates are indicated for the fixation of patellar fractures for patients over 21 years of age.
Device Description
The subject EVOS Patella Plates are an extension to the EVOS Mini Fragment system previously cleared under K140814 (S.E. 5/7/2014). The subject bone plates consist of a Staggered Patella Plate, and a Small and Large Mesh Patella Plate. The subject plates are compatible with the previously cleared EVOS 2.7mm locking screws, and partially and fully threaded 4.0mm osteopenia screws (K140814). The proposed plates feature a variable angle locking screw hole feature, are manufactured from implantgrade 316L Stainless Steel material and will be available in a sterile packaged condition.
More Information

No
The document describes a mechanical plating system for bone fixation and does not mention any software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate the use of AI/ML. The performance studies are based on mechanical testing and finite element analysis.

Yes

The device aids in fracture fixation and stabilization of bone fragments, which are therapeutic interventions.

No

The device is a plating system for fracture fixation and reduction of bones, which is a therapeutic function, not a diagnostic one.

No

The device description explicitly states the device consists of "bone plates" manufactured from "implantgrade 316L Stainless Steel material," which are physical hardware components.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states the device is for "fracture fixation or reduction of small bones and small bone fragments" and "non-load bearing stabilization of bone fragments in long bones," as well as "fixation of patellar fractures." These are all surgical procedures performed directly on the patient's body.
  • Device Description: The device is described as "bone plates" and "screws," which are implants used in surgery.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) outside of the body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment.

IVD devices are used to perform tests on samples taken from the body, not to be implanted within the body for structural support or fixation.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

The following nonclinical tests were used to determine substantial equivalence:

  • Finite element analysis (FEA) and predicate clinical data were leveraged to support device performance.
  • Four Point Bend Fatigue performance evaluation was done for the subject plates.
  • Magnetic resonance imaging (MR) compatibility evaluation was done per ASTM F2213, ASTM F2182, and ASTM F2119.
  • Packaging verification testing was conducted on the subject devices per ASTM F2096 and ASTM F88.

The testing detailed in this premarket notification demonstrates that the subject EVOS Patella Plates are substantially equivalent in performance to the predicate EVOS Mini-Fragment system (K140814, S.E. 5/7/2014).

§ 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 Mandy Coe:

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 (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 available 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.

Device Description Summary

The subject EVOS Patella Plates are an extension to the EVOS Mini Fragment system previously cleared under K140814 (S.E. 5/7/2014). The subject bone plates consist of a Staggered Patella Plate, and a Small and Large Mesh Patella Plate. The subject plates are compatible with the previously cleared EVOS 2.7mm locking screws, and partially and fully threaded 4.0mm osteopenia screws (K140814). The proposed plates feature a variable angle locking screw hole feature, are manufactured from implantgrade 316L Stainless Steel material and will be available in a sterile packaged condition.

Intended Use/Indications for Use

The EVOS Mini Plating System, excluding EVOS Patella Plates, is indicated for patients 12 – 21 and those over 21 years of age, as well as patients with osteopenic bone. The Smith & Nephew EVOS Mini Plating System is indicated for fracture fixation or reduction of small bones and small bone fragments.

Indications for Use Comparison

The indications for use of the subject devices are substantially equivalent to the indications for the cleared predicates.

Technological Comparison

21 CFR 807.92(a)(6)

Device comparisons described in this premarket notification demonstrated that the proposed bone plates are substantially equivalent to legally marketed predicates with respect to indications, and performance characteristics. Both the subject and predicate devices have same operating principle, material, and technological characteristics such as variable angle locking screw holes.

Non-Clinical and/or Clinical Tests Summary & Conclusions 21 CFR 807.92(b)

The following nonclinical tests were used to determine substantial equivalence:

  • · Finite element analysis (FEA) and predicate clinical data were leveraged to support device performance.
  • · Four Point Bend Fatigue performance evaluation was done for the subject plates.
  • · Magnetic resonance imaging (MR) compatibility evaluation was done per ASTM F2213, ASTM F2182, and ASTM F2119. • Packaging verification testing was conducted on the subject devices per ASTM F2096 and ASTM F88.

The testing detailed in this premarket not the subject EVOS Patella Plates are substantially equivalent in performance to the predicate EVOS Mini-Fragment system (K140814, S.E. 57/2014).
