The 510(k) summary describes a system of resorbable plates and screws for bone fixation and does not mention any software, algorithms, or AI/ML capabilities.
No.
The device is described as a resorbable fixation system with plates and screws used for fractures and reconstructive procedures of the craniofacial skeleton, which indicates a surgical or structural support function rather than a therapeutic one (i.e., treating or curing a disease).
No
Explanation: The device is a resorbable fixation system (plates and screws) used for surgical repair of fractures in the craniofacial skeleton, not for diagnosing medical conditions.
No
The device description explicitly states that the system contains various plates and screws made from a resorbable copolymer, which are physical hardware components.
Based on the provided information, this device 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.
- Device Description: The Synthes Resorbable Fixation System is described as containing plates and screws made from a resorbable copolymer. These are physical implants used to fix fractures and reconstruct bones.
- Intended Use: The intended use is for fixing fractures and performing reconstructive procedures on the craniofacial skeleton. This is a surgical intervention, not a diagnostic test performed on a sample.
The device is a surgical implant used for structural support and fixation within the body, which falls under the category of medical devices, but not specifically in vitro diagnostics.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
Synthes Resorbable Fixation System is intended for fractures of the craniofacial skeleton, including, but not limited to, comminuted fractures of the nasocthmoidal areas, comminuted fractures of the frontal sinus wall, and midfacial fractures; and reconstructive procedures of the midface or craniofacial skeleton. Do not use in the mandible.
Synthes Resorbable Fixation System is not intended for: 1) areas with active infection; 2) patient conditions including; blood supply linitations, insufficient quantity of quality of bone, or latent infections. This device is not designed for use in the mandible or for use in full load bearing procedures.
