Synthes Cloverleaf Plate, P/N 240.23
Not Found
No
The device description focuses on the mechanical design and materials of a bone plate, with no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate AI/ML. The "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML" and "Mentions image processing" fields are explicitly marked as "Not Found".
No
The device, a surgical plate, is used to stabilize fractures and promote healing, which is a restorative and reconstructive function rather than a direct therapeutic one. It facilitates the healing process rather than actively treating an ailment or disease.
No
The device description indicates it is a surgical plate used for fixing fractures, not for diagnosing medical conditions.
No
The device description clearly describes a physical implantable plate made of titanium, not a software product.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use/Indications for Use: The intended use is for treating bone fractures (distal intra-articular tibia, proximal tibia, proximal and distal humerus fractures). This is a surgical intervention, not a diagnostic test performed on biological samples.
- Device Description: The description details a surgical implant (a bone plate) designed to stabilize fractures. It describes its physical characteristics, materials, and how it interacts with screws. This is consistent with a surgical device.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue, etc.) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
Therefore, the DePuy ACE TiMAX™ Meta Plate is a surgical implant, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Device Description
The DePuy ACE TiMAX™ Meta Plate has a triangular shaped projection at the end of a shaft portion. The shaft portion has compression slots with a pitch of 13mm which matches the small fragment, active compression plate. The plate thickness is 1.6mm in the shaft region and transitions to a thickness of 1mm in the triangular shaped metaphyseal region. A cut-out in the middle of the metaphyseal region provides an open architecture to facilitate contouring by the surgeon, to accommodate the anatomical topography of the distal tibia as well as other indicated anatomical regions, and also to promote fracture healing. The screw holes have been designed to allow low profile interaction with the heads of the 3.5mm cortical screw and the 4.0mm cancellous screw. The plate will be offered in two sizes: small (width=30mm) and large (width=38mm) with various lengths.

§ 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.

DEVICE DESCRIPTION AND SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE RATIONALES:
The DePuy ACE TiMAX™ Meta Plate has a triangular shaped projection at the end of a shaft portion. The shaft portion has compression slots with a pitch of 13mm which matches the small fragment, active compression plate. The plate thickness is 1.6mm in the shaft region and transitions to a thickness of 1mm in the triangular shaped metaphyseal region. A cut-out in the middle of the metaphyseal region provides an open architecture to facilitate contouring by the surgeon, to accommodate the anatomical topography of the distal tibia as well as other indicated anatomical regions, and also to promote fracture healing.

The plate will be offered in two sizes: small (width=30mm) and large (width=38mm) with various lengths.
The DePuy ACE TiMAX™ Meta Plate is similar in design and function to the Synthes Cloverleaf plate (pre-amendment device).
