No
The document describes a mechanical spinal fixation system and does not mention any software, algorithms, or AI/ML capabilities.
Yes
The device is a spinal fixation system intended to provide temporary stability of the spine and is used as an adjunct to fusion for treating various spinal instabilities and deformities. These are direct interventions intended to treat a patient's medical condition.
No
This device is a spinal fixation system, which is a surgical implant designed to provide temporary stability and aid in fusion of the spine. It is a therapeutic device, not a diagnostic one.
No
The device description clearly states it consists of physical components like rods, hooks, screws, etc., which are hardware.
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 spinal fixation system designed to provide temporary stability and aid in fusion of the spine. This is a surgical implant used in vivo (within the body).
- Device Description: The description details the physical components of the system (rods, hooks, screws, etc.) which are hardware for surgical implantation.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue, etc.) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or compatibility testing.
IVD devices are used in vitro (outside the body) to analyze biological samples. This device is a surgical implant used in vivo.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
The SCI BacFix® Ti Spinal Fixation System consists of a combination of components which include rods, hooks, locking wedges, screws, transverse connectors, cable-screws, cables and spinous process grommets which are indicated to provide temporary stability of the thoracic, thoracolumbar, or lumbar spine (T1 to S1).
When intended for pedicle screw fixation, implants are 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 or sacral spine: degenerative disc disease (defined as discogenic back pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies), degenerative spondylolisthesis with objective evidence of neurological impairment, fracture, dislocation, scoliosis, kyphosis, spinal tumor and failed previous fusion (pseudarthrosis). Levels of pedicle screw attachment for these indications range to T1 to the sacrum.
As a pedicle screw system, the BacFix® Spinal Fixation System is also intended for patients having Grade 3 or Grade 4 spondylolisthesis at L5-S1, when utilizing autologous bone graft, when affixed to the posterior when deling and intended to be removed after solid fusion is established. Levels of pedicle screw fixation for this indication are from L3 to the sacrum.
When intended for non-pedicle, posterior screw fixation of the non-cervical spine, the indications are:
- . Idiopathic scoliosis.
- Neuromuscular scoliosis/kyphoscoliosis with associated . paralysis or spasticity.
- Scoliosis with deficient posterior elements such as that . resulting from laminectomy or myelomeningocele.
- Spinal fractures (acute reduction or late deformity). ●
- Degenerative disc disease (back pain of discogenic origin with . degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies).
- Neoplastic disease. ●
- Spondylolisthesis. ●
- Spinal Stenosis. ●
- Failed previous fusion. .
The cable-screws, cables and spinous process grommets are indicated for:
- Defect of pars lateralis. .
- Spondylolisthesis. .
Cables and spinous processes grommets may be used for interspinous wiring if additional stability is needed.

(a)
Identification. (1) Rigid pedicle screw systems are comprised of multiple components, made from a variety of materials that allow the surgeon to build an implant system to fit the patient's anatomical and physiological requirements. Such a spinal implant assembly consists of a combination of screws, longitudinal members (e.g., plates, rods including dual diameter rods, plate/rod combinations), transverse or cross connectors, and interconnection mechanisms (e.g., rod-to-rod connectors, offset connectors).(2) Semi-rigid systems are defined as systems that contain one or more of the following features (including but not limited to): Non-uniform longitudinal elements, or features that allow more motion or flexibility compared to rigid systems.
(b)
Classification. (1) Class II (special controls), when 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: severe spondylolisthesis (grades 3 and 4) of the L5-S1 vertebra; degenerative spondylolisthesis with objective evidence of neurologic impairment; fracture; dislocation; scoliosis; kyphosis; spinal tumor; and failed previous fusion (pseudarthrosis). These pedicle screw spinal systems must comply with the following special controls:(i) Compliance with material standards;
(ii) Compliance with mechanical testing standards;
(iii) Compliance with biocompatibility standards; and
(iv) Labeling that contains these two statements in addition to other appropriate labeling information:
“Warning: The safety and effectiveness of pedicle screw spinal systems have been established only for spinal conditions with significant mechanical instability or deformity requiring fusion with instrumentation. These conditions are significant mechanical instability or deformity of the thoracic, lumbar, and sacral spine secondary to severe spondylolisthesis (grades 3 and 4) of the L5-S1 vertebra, degenerative spondylolisthesis with objective evidence of neurologic impairment, fracture, dislocation, scoliosis, kyphosis, spinal tumor, and failed previous fusion (pseudarthrosis). The safety and effectiveness of these devices for any other conditions are unknown.”
“Precaution: The implantation of pedicle screw spinal systems should be performed only by experienced spinal surgeons with specific training in the use of this pedicle screw spinal system because this is a technically demanding procedure presenting a risk of serious injury to the patient.”
(2) Class II (special controls), when a rigid pedicle screw system is intended to provide immobilization and stabilization of spinal segments in the thoracic, lumbar, and sacral spine as an adjunct to fusion in the treatment of degenerative disc disease and spondylolisthesis other than either severe spondylolisthesis (grades 3 and 4) at L5-S1 or degenerative spondylolisthesis with objective evidence of neurologic impairment. These pedicle screw systems must comply with the following special controls:
(i) The design characteristics of the device, including engineering schematics, must ensure that the geometry and material composition are consistent with the intended use.
(ii) Non-clinical performance testing must demonstrate the mechanical function and durability of the implant.
(iii) Device components must be demonstrated to be biocompatible.
(iv) Validation testing must demonstrate the cleanliness and sterility of, or the ability to clean and sterilize, the device components and device-specific instruments.
(v) Labeling must include the following:
(A) A clear description of the technological features of the device including identification of device materials and the principles of device operation;
(B) Intended use and indications for use, including levels of fixation;
(C) Identification of magnetic resonance (MR) compatibility status;
(D) Cleaning and sterilization instructions for devices and instruments that are provided non-sterile to the end user; and
(E) Detailed instructions of each surgical step, including device removal.
(3) Class II (special controls), when a semi-rigid system is intended to provide immobilization and stabilization of spinal segments in the thoracic, lumbar, and sacral spine as an adjunct to fusion for any indication. In addition to complying with the special controls in paragraphs (b)(2)(i) through (v) of this section, these pedicle screw systems must comply with the following special controls:
(i) Demonstration that clinical performance characteristics of the device support the intended use of the product, including assessment of fusion compared to a clinically acceptable fusion rate.
(ii) Semi-rigid systems marketed prior to the effective date of this reclassification must submit an amendment to their previously cleared premarket notification (510(k)) demonstrating compliance with the special controls in paragraphs (b)(2)(i) through (v) and paragraph (b)(3)(i) of this section.
