The description focuses on a physical implantable device and its mechanical properties, with no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing related to AI/ML.
Yes
The device is intended for the arthroscopic fixation of meniscus lesions, indicating it is used for treatment and repair of a medical condition.
No
The Meniscal Dart is described as a device for "arthroscopic fixation of longitudinal, vertical meniscus lesions," indicating it is a therapeutic device used for repair, not diagnosis. The "Additional instruments include calibration instruments to measure the depth of the tear" refers to tools for guiding placement, not for diagnosing a condition.
No
The device description clearly states it is a physical device fabricated from L-PLA with a back tab and barbs, intended for surgical implantation. It also mentions an inserter instrument and calibration instruments, all of which are hardware components.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states the device is for the "arthroscopic fixation of longitudinal, vertical meniscus lesions". This describes a surgical procedure performed on the patient's body, not a test performed on a sample taken from the patient.
- Device Description: The description details a physical implantable device ("molded device with a back tab and barbs") used for repair, not a reagent, instrument, or system used to examine specimens.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, tissue, etc.), detecting substances, or providing diagnostic information based on laboratory testing.
IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This device is a surgical implant used for repair.

§ 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)

The indications for use of the two devices are identical.
7. PERFORMANCE DATA:
The following performance data was provided in support of the substantial equivalence determination:
-
- Bench Testing: Comparison of the fatigue strength of the Meniscal Dart in vitro compared to the predicate device. In addition, the performance of the device was assessed under constant load as was the weight loss and intrinsic viscocity.
-
- Animal Testing: The testing demonstrated the efficacy of the Innovasive Meniscal Dart and confirmed that the device functions adequately to meet its intended use.
