No
The 510(k) summary describes a mechanical screw and does not mention any AI or ML components or functionalities.

No
Explanation: This device is a screw used for surgical fixation, not a device intended to treat or cure a disease or condition therapeutically.

No
Explanation: The device is a self-drilling screw used for surgical fixation, not for diagnosing conditions.

No

The device description clearly states it is a physical screw with specific features (self-drilling, self-tapping tips, stardrive recessed head) and dimensions (lengths ranging from 4 mm - 6 mm), indicating it is a hardware medical device.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the screws are for surgical procedures involving the midface and craniofacial skeleton. This is a surgical implant, not a diagnostic test performed on samples taken from the body.
  • Device Description: The description details the physical characteristics of a screw used for fixation in bone. This is consistent with a surgical device.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), detecting specific substances, or providing diagnostic information about a patient's health status.

IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This device does not fit that description.
