Intended Use
The Omega+ Compression Screw System consists of a series of lag screws, proximal hip sideplates, supracondylar side plates, and a compression screw designed to be used in the temporary stabilization of fractures of the proximal femur (intracapsular or intertrochanteric), and/or distal third of the femur (supracondylar area).

These components were previously released under K850886, K872223, K922295, and K930156. These components are now made available in sterile packaging. It is Howmedica's intention to market these products both sterile and non-sterile.
More Information

No
The 510(k) summary describes a mechanical orthopedic implant system and makes no mention of AI or ML technology. The device description focuses on the physical components and their intended use in fracture stabilization.

Yes
The device is used for the "temporary stabilization of fractures," which directly addresses and treats a medical condition.

No
The device is described as a system for temporary stabilization of fractures, indicating a therapeutic rather than diagnostic function.

No

The device description clearly states it consists of physical components like lag screws, sideplates, and a compression screw, which are hardware.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is the "temporary stabilization of fractures of the proximal femur... and/or distal third of the femur". This describes a surgical implant used to treat bone fractures within the body.
  • Device Description: The device consists of "lag screws, proximal hip sideplates, supracondylar side plates, and a compression screw". These are all components used in orthopedic surgery.
  • Anatomical Site: The anatomical site is the "proximal femur... and/or distal third of the femur". This refers to bones within the body.

In vitro diagnostics (IVDs) are medical devices used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to provide information about a person's health. The Omega+ Compression Screw System does not perform any such tests on samples. It is a physical implant used to stabilize bone fractures.

§ 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.
