The summary describes a mechanical implant for fracture stabilization and contains no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or data-driven performance metrics typically associated with AI/ML devices.
Yes
Explanation: The device is intended to stabilize fractures, which is a therapeutic purpose.
No
Explanation: The device is an intramedullary rod system intended to stabilize fractures, not to diagnose medical conditions. Its purpose is therapeutic/surgical, not diagnostic.
No
The device description clearly states it is an "Intramedullary Rod System," which is a physical implantable medical device, not software.
Based on the provided information, the ULTiMAX™ brand Distal Femoral Intramedullary Rod System is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the device is used to "stabilize distal femoral fractures". This is a surgical implant used in vivo (within the body) to treat a physical condition.
- Device Description: The description refers to a "Distal Femoral Intramedullary Rod System," which is a type of orthopedic implant.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
- Analyzing samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
- Providing information about a patient's health status based on laboratory tests
- Using reagents or calibrators
IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. The ULTiMAX™ system is a therapeutic device used to physically stabilize a fracture.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The ULTiMAX™ brand Distal Femoral Intramedullary Rod System is indicated for single use to stabilize distal femoral fractures, including supracondylar fractures, severely comminuted supracondylar fractures with difficult intra-articular extension, fractures that require stabilization of the femoral condylar segment, distal fractures in osteoporotic bone, pathologic fractures, pseudoarthrosis, malunions and failed distal femoral osteosynthesis.

Dear Mr. Hodgeman:
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.
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 Requlations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 895. ਸਿ substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the current Good Manufacturing Practice requirement, 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 action. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements 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 requlations.
