Device Description
The Synthes Mandibular Modular Fixation System is a plate and screw system, manufactured from commercially pure titanium, and is intended for use in: - Oral, maxillofacial surgery: trauma; surgical correction of dentofacial deformities; . reconstructive surgery; and craniofacial surgery - ENT: trauma of the nasal bones . - Neurosurgery: osteosynthesis of the cranial bones. . The plates are available in a variety of shapes and sizes and attach to bone via 2.0 mm, 2.4 mm, or 2.7 mm self-tapping screws. Synthes will provide the device non-sterile. Of course, non-sterile devices must be sterilized prior to use; moist heat sterilization is recommended.

No
The device description and summary of performance studies indicate a mechanical plate and screw system, with no mention of AI or ML technology.

No
The device is a plate and screw system intended for bone fixation in various surgical procedures, not for therapeutic treatment.

No

The device description indicates it is a "plate and screw system" used for fixation in surgical procedures, not for diagnosing conditions.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "plate and screw system, manufactured from commercially pure titanium," which are physical hardware components.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health.
  • Device Description and Intended Use: The provided information clearly describes a surgical implant system (plates and screws) used for fixing bones in the face and skull. It is used in the body during surgery, not for testing samples outside the body.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any testing of biological samples, analysis of biomarkers, or diagnostic purposes.

This device is a surgical implant/fixation system, not an IVD.

Device: Synthes Mandibular Modular Fixation System, as compared to the W. Lorenz Würzburg Titanium Miniplate System.

The Synthes Mandibular Modular Fixation System is a plate and screw system, manufactured from commercially pure titanium, and is intended for use in:

  • Oral, maxillofacial surgery: trauma; surgical correction of dentofacial deformities; . reconstructive surgery; and craniofacial surgery
  • ENT: trauma of the nasal bones .
  • Neurosurgery: osteosynthesis of the cranial bones. .

The plates are available in a variety of shapes and sizes and attach to bone via 2.0 mm, 2.4 mm, or 2.7 mm self-tapping screws.

The W. Lorenz Würzburg Titanium Miniplate System, manufactured from titanium, and is intended for use in the following:

  • Oral, maxillofacial surgery: trauma; surgical correction of dentofacial deformities; . reconstructive surgery; and craniofacial surgery
  • ENT: trauma of the nasal bones .
  • Neurosurgery: osteosynthesis of the cranial bones .

The plates are also available in a variety of shapes to accommodate various fracture types, and attach to bone via 2.0 mm or 2.3 mm self-tapping screws.

Synthes will provide the device non-sterile. Of course, non-sterile devices must be sterilized prior to use; moist heat sterilization is recommended.

Based on mechanical test results, the Synthes Mandibular Fixation System is substantially equivalent to the W. Lorenz Würzburg Titanium Miniplate System.
