No
The summary describes a mechanical spinal fixation system and its components. There is no mention of software, algorithms, or any technology that would typically incorporate AI or ML. The performance studies are biomechanical tests, not related to data analysis or image processing.
Yes
The device is described as an "adjunct to fusion" and is intended to "provide immobilization and stabilization of spinal segments" and "correct spinal deformity and facilitate the biological process of spinal fusion" for various spinal conditions, which are therapeutic actions.
No
Explanation: The device is a spinal fixation system, which is a temporary implant used to correct spinal deformity and facilitate fusion. It is a treatment device, not one that gathers information for diagnosis.
No
The device description explicitly states it is a "temporary implant system" consisting of "hooks and/or screws connected to rods," which are physical hardware components. The performance studies also focus on biomechanical testing of these physical components.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) taken from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
- Device Description and Intended Use: The description clearly states that the Spinal Innovations Ascend™ Spinal Fixation System with the Shadow™ Spinal System is a temporary implant system used to correct spinal deformity and facilitate spinal fusion. It is surgically implanted into the patient's spine.
- Lack of Specimen Analysis: There is no mention of this device being used to analyze any biological specimens. Its function is mechanical support and stabilization within the body.
Therefore, this device falls under the category of a surgical implant or spinal fixation system, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
The Spinal Innovations Ascend™ Spinal Fixation System with the Shadow™ Spinal System, when used as a pedicle screw fixation system, is indicated for use in patients: a) having severe spondylolisthesis (Grade 3 and 4) at the L5-S1 joint; b) who are receiving fusion using autogenous graft only; c) who are having the device fixed or attached to the lumbar or sacral spine; and d) who are having the device removed after the development of a solid fusion mass. When used for this indication, the fusion mass may not go above the L5-S1 joint, the levels of pedicle screw fixation may span from L3 to the sacrum.
The Spinal Innovations Ascend™ Spinal Fixation System with the Shadow™ Spinal System is a pedicle screw system intended to provide immobilization and stabilization of spinal segments in skeletally mature patients as an adjunct to fusion in the treatment of the following acute and chronic instabilities or deformities of the thoracic, lumbar, and sacral spine: degenerative spondylolisthesis with objective evidence of neurological impairment, fracture, dislocation, scoliosis, kyphosis, spinal tumor, and failed previous fusion (pseudarthrosis).
When used as a hook and sacral screw system (other than pedicle screw fixation system for high grade spondylolisthesis), the Spinal Innovations Ascend™ Spinal Fixation System with the Shadow™ Spinal System is intended for use in the treatment of degenerative disc disease (as defined by chronic back pain of discogenic origin with the degeneration of the disc confirmed by a history and radiographic studies), idiopathic scoliosis, spondylolisthesis, kyphotic or lordotic deformity of the spine, loss of stability due to tumors, spinal stenosis, vertebral fracture or dislocation, pseudoarthrosis, and previous failed spinal surgery/fusion. When used for this indication, screws of the Spinal Innovations Ascend™ Spinal Fixation System with the Shadow™ Spinal System are intended for sacral/iliac attachment only. Hooks of the system are intended for posterior thoracic and/or lumbar use only. The levels of use for hook and sacral screw fixation of this system are T1 to the sacrum.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
Biomechanical testing demonstrated that the components of the Spinal Innovations Ascend™ Spinal Fixation System with the Shadow™ Spinal System exhibit equivalent mechanical performance compared to predicate devices. Testing included the following:
- Corpectomy model testing per ASTM F 1717-96 Standard Test Methods for Static and Fatigue for Spinal Products in a Corpectomy Model. This included static compression bending, static torsion, and compression bending fatigue.
- Interconnection testing of individual system components per ASTM F 1798-97. The tests included axial gripping capacity of hooks, screws, and rod-to-rod connectors, torsional gripping capacity, and polyaxial screw flexion/extension static and fatigue testing.
Testing results of the various system components show that the data compares directly to predicate device testing and meets or exceeds other predicate devices.

§ 888.3050 Spinal interlaminal fixation orthosis.
(a)
Identification. A spinal interlaminal fixation orthosis is a device intended to be implanted made of an alloy, such as stainless steel, that consists of various hooks and a posteriorly placed compression or distraction rod. The device is implanted, usually across three adjacent vertebrae, to straighten and immobilize the spine to allow bone grafts to unite and fuse the vertebrae together. The device is used primarily in the treatment of scoliosis (a lateral curvature of the spine), but it also may be used in the treatment of fracture or dislocation of the spine, grades 3 and 4 of spondylolisthesis (a dislocation of the spinal column), and lower back syndrome.(b)
