AI/MLSaMDIVD (In Vitro Diagnostic)TherapeuticDiagnosticis PCCP Authorized
Intended Use
The DePuy Interference Screw Systems are intended to be used to provide interference fixation of bone-patellar tendon-bone grafts in anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) reconstruction and of soft tissue grafts in ACL reconstruction.
Device Description
The DePuy Interference Screw Systems are cannulated fully threaded cancellous bone screws available in three diameters (7, 8, and 9mm) in three lengths (20, 25,and 30mm), and manufactured from titanium alloy (DePuy Profile Round Head Interference Screw) and from Poly-L-lactic acid (DePuy Phantom Absorbable Interference Screw).
More Information

Not Found

No
The device description and intended use describe a mechanical screw for surgical fixation, with no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate AI/ML.

No
The device is an interference screw used for internal fixation of grafts in ligament reconstruction, not a device that provides therapy or treatment.

No

The device is a surgical implant (interference screw) used for fixation of grafts in ligament reconstruction, not for diagnosis of a condition.

No

The device description clearly states it is a system of cannulated fully threaded cancellous bone screws made from titanium alloy and Poly-L-lactic acid, which are physical hardware components.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples such as blood, urine, or tissue taken from the human body to detect diseases, conditions, or infections. They are used to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Device Description and Intended Use: The DePuy Interference Screw Systems are described as surgical implants (screws) used to fix grafts during ligament reconstruction surgery. They are physically implanted into the body to provide mechanical support.
  • Lack of Biological Sample Testing: The provided information does not mention any testing of biological samples from the patient. The device's function is purely mechanical and structural within the body.

Therefore, based on the provided information, the DePuy Interference Screw Systems are medical devices used in surgery, not in vitro diagnostics.

§ 888.3040 Smooth or threaded metallic bone fixation fastener.

(a)
Identification. A smooth or threaded metallic bone fixation fastener is a device intended to be implanted that consists of a stiff wire segment or rod made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum and stainless steel, and that may be smooth on the outside, fully or partially threaded, straight or U-shaped; and may be either blunt pointed, sharp pointed, or have a formed, slotted head on the end. It may be used for fixation of bone fractures, for bone reconstructions, as a guide pin for insertion of other implants, or it may be implanted through the skin so that a pulling force (traction) may be applied to the skeletal system.(b)
Classification. Class II.

SUBSTANTIALLY EQUIVALENT DEVICES:

•DePuy Phantom Absorbable Interference Screw (K955733, K981670) •DePuy Profile Round Head Interference Screw (K961234, K981670) ·Linvatec BioScrew Absorbable Interference Screw (K960652, K960940)

DEVICE DESCRIPTION AND INTENDED USE: The DePuy Interference Screw Systems are cannulated fully threaded cancellous bone screws available in three diameters (7, 8, and 9mm) in three lengths (20, 25,and 30mm), and manufactured from titanium alloy (DePuy Profile Round Head Interference Screw) and from Poly-L-lactic acid (DePuy Phantom Absorbable Interference Screw).

The DePuy Interference Screw Systems are intended to provide interference fixation of bone-patellar tendon-bone grafts in ACL and PCL reconstruction and of soft tissue grafts in ACL reconstruction.

BASIS OF SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE:

The DePuy Profile Round Head and the Phantom Absorbable Interference Screws are identical in design and materials to the DePuy Profile Round Head and Phantom Absorbable Interference screws which have been previously been cleared by FDA for interference fixation of bone-patellar tendon-bone grafts in ACL reconstruction and of soft tissue grafts in ACL reconstruction. The only difference between this submission and the previously cleared submission is the additional indication for interference fixation of bone-patellar tendon-bone grafts in PCL reconstruction.

Mechanical testing has shown that the mean pull-out loads of the Profile Round Head Interference Screws and the Phantom Absorbable Interference Screws are comparable to those published for the previously cleared Linvatec BioScrew indicated for interference fixation in PCL reconstruction.
