The summary describes a mechanical implant and surgical instruments, with no mention of software, algorithms, or AI/ML capabilities.
Yes
The device is intended for sacroiliac joint fusion, addressing conditions like sacroiliac joint disruptions and degenerative sacroiliitis, which are medical problems. It fixes and compresses the joint to facilitate bone growth, indicating a direct therapeutic action rather than just diagnostic or assistive.
No
The document describes a system for sacroiliac joint fusion, which is a treatment or fixation device, not one used for diagnosis.
No
The device description explicitly states it contains "various orthopedic instruments" and "TiLink Implants," which are physical hardware components, not software.
No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is for sacroiliac joint fusion, which is a surgical procedure performed on a patient's body.
- Device Description: The device is an orthopedic implant (a fusion system) designed to be surgically implanted into the sacroiliac joint to fixate it.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: An IVD device is used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device does not interact with such specimens.
The information provided clearly describes a surgical implant and associated instruments, not a diagnostic test performed on samples outside the body.

Device Description
The purpose of this Special 510(k) is to introduce the TiLink-P with Window variant to the TiLink-P SI Joint Fusion System. The Window feature is designed to promote osteointegration.
The TiLink-P SI Joint Fusion System contains various orthopedic instruments to assist the user in implanting a titanium sacroiliac implant into the sacroiliac joint to transfix the joint. The SurGenTec TiLink-P SI Joint Fixation System includes TiLink Implants and associated Instruments. The TiLink-P implants may be used standalone. The TiLink-P SI Joint Fusion System fixates the sacroiliac joint by transfixing the cortices of the ilium and cortices of the sacrum.
The TiLink-P Compression Anchor is positioned so that it spans the cortices of ilium and cortices of sacrum, the TiLink-P Locking Screw is inserted through the TiLink-P Compression Anchor and along the SI Joint via a posterior approach, in order to compress the joint. Bone graft material is used with the TiLink-P SI Joint Fusion System to facilitate bone growth.

§ 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)
Classification. Class II.

Dear Berny Villejeune:
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 (the 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. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
