No
The summary describes a simple titanium alloy pin for fracture fixation and contains no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or performance studies related to algorithmic analysis.

Yes
The device is described as an "aid in the healing of lor fractures," which indicates a therapeutic purpose.

No
The device is described as a temporary implant (titanium alloy pin) to aid in the healing of fractures, which classifies it as a therapeutic device, not a diagnostic one.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "titanium alloy pin," which is a physical hardware component, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is described as a "temporary ant to aid in the healing of lor fractures." This is a therapeutic purpose, directly treating a medical condition within the body.
  • Device Description: The device is a "titanium alloy pin" intended for implantation into bone. This is a surgical implant, not a reagent, instrument, or system used to examine specimens from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), providing diagnostic information, or being used in a laboratory setting.

IVD devices are used in vitro (outside the body) to analyze specimens and provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device is used in vivo (inside the body) for a therapeutic purpose.

§ 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.

Image /page/0/Picture/1 description: The image shows a logo with a stylized letter 'L' inside a partial circle. The 'L' is formed by two thick, parallel lines that create the shape. The circle is incomplete, with a gap at the top left, giving the impression that the 'L' is emerging from or connecting to the circle. The logo is in black and white, with the 'L' and circle being solid black against a white background.
