The 510(k) summary describes a purely mechanical device (titanium tack) for stabilizing membranes during bone healing. There is no mention of software, algorithms, image processing, or any terms related to AI/ML. The description focuses solely on the physical characteristics and intended use of the tack.
No
The device is a bone tack system used to stabilize barrier membranes during the healing process, acting as a mechanical fastener rather than delivering therapy or modifying physiological function.
No
The device is described as stabilizing a barrier membrane onto a region of cortical plate during the healing process, acting as an attachment mechanism. It is used for stabilization, not for diagnosing a condition or disease.
No
The device description explicitly states the IMTEC Bone Tac is fabricated of titanium alloy and is a physical implantable device.
Based on the provided information, the IMTEC Bone Tac System is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
- IMTEC Bone Tac System Function: The description clearly states the device is designed to "stabilize a Barrier Membrane onto a region of cortical plate" in bone. It's a physical device used in vivo (within the body) during a surgical procedure.
- No Mention of Samples or Testing: There is no mention of the device being used to analyze samples or perform any kind of diagnostic test.
Therefore, the IMTEC Bone Tac System is a surgical implant/device, not an in vitro diagnostic.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
The IMTEC Bone Tac System is designed to stabilize a Barrier Membrane onto a region of cortical plate. This may be used in craniofacial, maxillofacial or mandibular bone. Considerations such as quality of bone, bone type, functional loads exerted, general patient health and others should be carefully evaluated prior to use.

Device Description
The IMTEC Bone Tac is fabricated of titanium alloy and has a thin low profile head and a barb at the tip for stabilization. It is designed to stabilize guided tissue membranes during the healing process by providing an attachment mechanism to the adjacent bone at the surgical site. The device will be marketed non-sterile.

DEVICE DESCRIPTION:
The IMTEC Bone Tac is fabricated of titanium alloy and has a thin low profile head and a barb at the tip for stabilization. It is designed to stabilize guided tissue membranes during the healing process by providing an attachment mechanism to the adjacent bone at the surgical site. The device will be marketed non-sterile.

INDICATIONS FOR USE:
The IMTEC Bone Tac System is designed to stabilize a Barrier Membrane onto a region of cortical plate. This may be used in craniofacial, maxillofacial or mandibular bone. Considerations such as quality of bone, bone type, functional loads exerted, general patient health and others should be carefully evaluated prior to use.
PRINCIPLES OF OPERATION:
-
An aseptic technique is required for predicable success.
-
The tacs and instrumentation are provided NON-STERILE and must be appropriately sterilized prior to use.
-
Remove the cap from the seating instrument. Firmly press the seating instrument onto the head of the desired length tac in the tac holder. This will purchase the tac to be carried to the placement site. Seat the tac through the barrier material only with the tip of the seating instrument perpendicular to the bone surface or the tac may be damaged. Placement should be accomplished with a single firm tap on the base of the seating instrument with the mallet. To disengage the tac, roll the seating instrument to one side. If the tac is not completely seated after the first mallet strike, place the protective cap on the seating instrument and complete the process by tapping on the seating instrument with the cap positioned against the tac head. The seating instrument may be damaged if it is repeatedly struck with the tac in the "held" position.
-
Repeat this process until the barrier is firmly anchored. Always store the seating instrument with the cap in place. Otherwise, it may become distorted and not able to purchase the tac head.
-
A pilot drill hole may be required in areas of dense cortical bone. The twist drill required for this process is delicate and must be used with a cautious and light pressures to prevent fracture. A pilot hole should be placed through laminar bone when it is being used as the barrier.
-
Suture the soft tissue in the usual manner when the surgical procedure is complete. Every effort should be made to assure primary closure of all areas.
-
Radiographs should be taken to document the number and position of the tacs. This information should also be noted in the patient's record.
-
In instances where tac removal is required, after normal surgical exposure the tacs may be dislodged by using a surgical scalpel, periosteal elevator or other similar thin flat instrument. The tacs should be removed, inventoried and discarded. REUSE IS NOT RECOMMENDED. The surgical site is now resutured.

CONTRAINDICATIONS:
General patient evaluation is critical prior to any surgical procedure. Contraindications include, but are not limited to, vascular impairment, systemic or local infection, diabetes, radiation, steroid, or anticoagulant therapy, clotting disorders or other systemic or metabolic limitations which would compromise healing.
COMPLICATIONS:
Complications include those associated with any osseous surgical procedure and an esthetic usage. Type and severity of complications may indicate tac removal at the discretion of the clinician.
