The description focuses on the materials and components of a surgical fixation system and does not mention any software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate AI/ML.
Yes.
The device is used to hold bone fragments together and reinforce weak bony tissues in reconstructive surgical procedures, which are therapeutic interventions.
No
The device description indicates it is a system of mesh, wire, plates, and screws used for internal fixation and reinforcing bony tissues during surgical reconstructive procedures. It is a surgical implant system, not a device used to diagnose medical conditions.
No
The device description explicitly states that the system consists of "mesh, wire, plates and screws of various sizes and shapes" made from titanium alloy, indicating it is a hardware-based medical device.
Based on the provided information, the TIMESH System is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes the system as being used in surgical procedures to fix bone fragments and reinforce bony tissues. This is a direct surgical intervention on the body.
- Device Description: The device description details implants (mesh, wire, plates, screws) made of titanium alloy. These are physical devices implanted into the body.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, tissue) outside of the body to provide information about a physiological state, health, or disease.
IVD devices are used to perform tests on samples taken from the body, not to be implanted or used directly in surgical procedures for structural support.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The TIMESH System is intended for use in any oral-maxillo-cranio-facial surgical reconstructive procedure, either orthognathic or trauma, wherein rigid or semirigid internal fixation is utilized as a means of holding bone fragments together. Alternatively, the TIMESH System is also indicated for use in reinforcing weak bony tissues in orthopaedic surgical procedures such as pelvic reconstruction. acetabular reconstruction, and cement restriction. This product is not intended for spinal use.

Device Description
The TIMESH® System consists of a system of mesh, wire, plates and screws of various sizes and shapes. The implant components are fabricated from Ti-6Al-4V titanium alloy as described by ASTM F-136 or its ISO equivalent. Alternatively, the entire system or parts of it may be made out of commercially pure titanium described by ASTM F-67 or its ISO equivalent. The TIMESH System may be supplied either sterile or non-sterile.

§ 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)
