More Information

Not Found

No
The 510(k) summary describes a mechanical fixation system and does not mention any AI or ML components, image processing, or data-driven performance metrics.

No.
The device is described as a fixation system (plates and screws) used in oral and maxillofacial surgery for various purposes, including trauma and reconstructive surgery, which are structural and mechanical interventions rather than therapeutic.

No

Explanation: The provided text describes a fixation system used for surgical procedures and lists its intended uses in various types of oral and maxillofacial surgery. It does not mention any function related to diagnosing diseases or conditions.

No

The device description clearly states it is a system of physical plates and screws, 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 use in oral and maxillofacial surgery for procedures like trauma, surgical correction, and reconstructive surgery. This involves direct surgical intervention on the patient's body.
  • Device Description: The description details a physical implant (plates and screws) used to fix bone. This is a surgical implant, not a diagnostic tool.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens (like blood, tissue, or urine) outside of the body to provide diagnostic information. IVDs are typically used in laboratories or point-of-care settings for testing biological samples.

Therefore, the Synthes Mandibular Modular Fixation System is a surgical implant, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.
