Intended Use
The Osteo Compression Condyle Screw System is a femoral fracture fixation system, comprised of compression condyle plates, lag screws, and a compression screw, which is intended to provide strong and stable internal fixation with minimal soft tissue irritation. Osteo cancellous and cortical bone screws (#K913269) may be utilized with this system for additional compression and fixation. This system is utilized as an aid to healing, not as a substitute for normal intact tissues. Indications Cleared via 510(k) #K971321 and 510(k) #K920037: - Intercondylar fractures . - Supracondylar fractures . - . Unicondylar fractures Expanded Indications (the subject of this premarket notification): Fractures of the proximal femur: - Transverse subtrochanteric fractures . - . Short oblique subtrochanteric fractures - . Long oblique subtrochanteric fractures The Osteo Compression Condyle Screw System is used in the proximal femur in situations which require a more proximal placement of the lag screw in the femoral head, which the 95 degree plate angle accommodates. This allows for the placement of one or more bone screws in the proximal fragment which is intended to result in greater stability in the proximal femur, transmission of load across the fracture site and control of the rotation of the fracture fragment

More Information

No
The summary describes a mechanical orthopedic implant system for fracture fixation and does not mention any software, algorithms, or AI/ML capabilities.

Yes.
The device is a femoral fracture fixation system used to aid in the healing of fractures, which falls under the definition of a therapeutic device.

No

Explanation: The device is described as a "femoral fracture fixation system" intended for "internal fixation" and "aid to healing" of fractures, indicating it is a therapeutic device for stabilizing bones, not a device for diagnosing medical conditions.

No

The device description explicitly states it is comprised of physical components: compression condyle plates, lag screws, and a compression screw. These are hardware components for fracture fixation.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the device is a "femoral fracture fixation system" used for "internal fixation" of bone fractures. This is a surgical device used in vivo (within the body) to stabilize bone.
  • Device Description: The description reinforces that it's a system of plates and screws for fixing fractures.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) in vitro (outside the body) to provide information about a patient's health.

IVD devices are used to diagnose diseases or other conditions, including a determination of the state of health, in order to cure, mitigate, treat, or prevent disease or its sequelae. This device's purpose is mechanical stabilization of bone fractures, not diagnostic testing.

(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.

510(k) Number (if known): K#K920037, #K971321-

Device Name: Osteo Compression Condyle Screw System - Expanded Indications

Indications for Use:

The Osteo Compression Condyle Screw System is a femoral fracture fixation system, comprised of compression condyle plates, lag screws, and a compression screw, which is intended to provide strong and stable internal fixation with minimal soft tissue irritation. Osteo cancellous and cortical bone screws (#K913269) may be utilized with this system for additional compression and fixation. This system is utilized as an aid to healing, not as a substitute for normal intact tissues.

Indications

Cleared via 510(k) #K971321 and 510(k) #K920037

  • Intercondylar fractures .
  • Supracondylar fractures .
  • . Unicondylar fractures

Expanded Indications (the subject of this premarket notification)

Fractures of the proximal femur:

  • Transverse subtrochanteric fractures .
  • . Short oblique subtrochanteric fractures
  • . Long oblique subtrochanteric fractures

The Osteo Compression Condyle Screw System is used in the proximal femur in situations which require a more proximal placement of the lag screw in the femoral head, which the 95 degree plate angle accommodates. This allows for the placement of one or more bone screws in the proximal fragment which is intended to result in greater stability in the proximal femur, transmission of load across the fracture site and control of the rotation of the fracture fragment
