More Information

Not Found

No
The 510(k) summary describes a mechanical interference screw and explicitly states that AI, DNN, or ML were not found in the document.

No.
The device is an interference screw used for fixation of soft tissue grafts in ACL reconstruction, which is a surgical implant rather than a device designed to deliver therapeutic treatment in itself.

No
The device is described as an interference screw used for fixation of soft tissue grafts in ACL reconstruction, which is a therapeutic rather than a diagnostic function.

No

The device description clearly describes a physical, resorbable screw, which is a hardware component, not software.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is "to provide interference fixation of soft tissue grafts in ACL reconstruction." This describes a surgical implant used within the body to fix tissue, not a test performed on samples taken from the body to diagnose or monitor a condition.
  • Device Description: The description details a "resorbable, cannulated, interference screw" with specific physical characteristics and sizes. This is consistent with a surgical device, not an IVD.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The document does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
    • Analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
    • Detecting or measuring substances in those samples
    • Providing diagnostic information about a patient's health status

Therefore, the Phantom SofThread Soft Tissue Interference Screw is a surgical implant, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

§ 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)
Classification. Class II.

SUBSTANTIALLY EQUIVALENT DEVICE:

Phantom SofThread Soft Tissue Interference Screw (K980440)

DEVICE DESCRIPTION AND INTENDED USE:

The modified Phantom SofThread Screw is a resorbable, cannulated, interference screw with widely spaced, rounded threads and a conical tip, designed for use with soft tissue grafts. The SofThread Screw is available in four diameters (7, 8, 9 and 10mm) in one 25mm length. The modified Phantom SofThread Screw is intended to be used to provide interference fixation of soft tissue grafts in ACL reconstruction.

BASIS OF SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE:

The fundamental scientific technology of the modified Phantom SofThread Screw has not changed from the FDA cleared (K980440) Phantom SofThread Screw. The intended use of the modified Phantom SofThread Screw as described in its labeling has not changed from the FDA cleared (K980440) Phantom SofThread Screw. With the exception of minor design modifications (i.e., rounded head; increased broach depth, nose diameter and minor diameter, and slightly reduced thread pitch) the modified Phantom SofThread Screw is identical to the FDA cleared (K980440) Phantom SofThread Screw.

Based on conformance with the design control procedures requirements as specified in 21 CFR 820.30, similarities of design, identical materials and intended use, DePuy believes that the modified Phantom SofThread Screw is substantially equivalent to the FDA cleared K980440) Phantom SofThread Screw.
