No
The device description focuses solely on the physical components and materials of a surgical screw system, with no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing.

Yes
The device is a screw system used to treat various fractures and joint disruptions, which aligns with the definition of a therapeutic device designed to treat or alleviate a medical condition.

No

Explanation: This device is a surgical implant (cannulated screws and washer) used to stabilize fractures and joint disruptions. It is a therapeutic device, not a diagnostic one.

No

The device description explicitly details physical hardware components (screws and a washer) made of Titanium 6Al-4V alloy, indicating it is a physical medical device, not software-only.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes the device as being used for the fixation of bone fractures and joint fusions within the human body. This is a surgical intervention, not a diagnostic test performed on samples taken from the body.
  • Device Description: The device is a system of screws and a washer made of titanium. These are physical implants used to stabilize bone.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, tissue, etc.) to provide information about a physiological state, health, disease, or congenital abnormality.

IVD devices are used in vitro (outside the body) to perform diagnostic tests. This device is used in vivo (inside the body) for surgical treatment.

§ 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 Ms. Sutton:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) notification of intent to market the device referenced above and we have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to 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 (Act). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act.

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. Note that labeling or otherwise promoting a device for pedicular screw fixation/attachment would cause the device to be adulterated under 501(f)(1) of the Act. This device, if intended for use in pedicular screw fixation/attachment, would be found not substantially equivalent and would be a class III device under Section 513(f) of the Act. Class III devices are required to have an approved premarket approval (PMA) application prior to marketing. Accordingly:

  • The package insert must prominently state that the device 1. is intended for the specific use(s) described in the enclosure only; and
  • You may not label or in any way promote this device for 2. pedicular screw attachment to, or fixation of the cervical, thoracic or lumbar vertebral column. If this device is a screw with outer diameters of 3 mm - 10 mm and overall lengths of 10 mm - 75 mm inclusively, the package insert must include the following statement, "WARNING: This device is not approved for screw attachment or fixation to the posterior elements (pedicles) of the cervical, thoracic, or lumbar spine." Any pedicular screw fixation/attachment to the cervical, thoracic or lumbar vertebral column of this device is considered investigational and may only be investigated as a significant risk device in accordance with the investigational device exemption (IDE) regulations under 21 CFR, Part 812. All users of the device for pedicular screw fixation/attachment must receive approval from their respective institutional review boards (IRBs) and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) prior to conduct of the investigation.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (Premarket Approval), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 895. A substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the current Good Manufacturing Practice requirements, as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (QS) for Medical Devices: General regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic (QS) inspections, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply with the GMP regulation may result in regulatory In addition, FDA may publish further announcements action. concerning your device in the Federal Register. Please note: this response to your premarket notification submission does not affect any obligation you might have under sections 531 through 542 of the Act for devices under the Electronic Product Radiation Control provisions, or other Federal Laws or Regulations.
