Intended Use
The TPS-TL Spinal System implants are vertebral body replacement devices intended for use in the thoracic and/or thoracolumbar spine (i.e., T3 to L5). The TPS-TL Spinal System is indicated to replace a diseased vertebral body(ies) resected or excised for the treatment of tumors in order to achieve anterior decompression of the spinal cord and neural tissues, and to restore the height of a collapsed vertebral body(ies). The TPS-TL Spinal System is also indicated for treating fractures of the thoracic and lumbar spine. The TPS-TL Spinal System is designed to restore the biomechanical integrity of the anterior, middle and posterior spinal column even in the absence of fusion for a prolonged period.
Device Description
The TPS-TL Spinal System implants function as a single construct that combines an anterior plate and a vertebral body spacer which may be telescopically adjusted in situ to the required height. The TPS-TL Spinal System implants are composed of seven components: one (1) female chamber, one (1) male chamber, one (1) set screw, and four (4) bone screws. The TPS-TL Spinal System implants are made from medical implant grade titanium alloy as described by ASTM F136 (Ti 6Al-4V ELI) and are available for one and two levels.
More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a mechanical spinal implant system and does not mention any software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate the use of AI or ML.

Yes
The device is intended to treat tumors and fractures, replace diseased vertebral bodies, and restore the height and biomechanical integrity of the spinal column, which are all therapeutic actions.

No

Explanation: The device is described as a vertebral body replacement device used to treat tumors and fractures, and to restore the height and biomechanical integrity of the spinal column. This indicates a therapeutic or restorative function, not a diagnostic one.

No

The device description clearly states that the TPS-TL Spinal System is composed of physical components (female chamber, male chamber, set screw, bone screws) made from titanium alloy, which are implanted into the spine. This indicates a hardware-based medical device, not a software-only one.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health.
  • Device Description and Intended Use: The provided text clearly describes a surgical implant designed to replace vertebral bodies in the spine. It is a physical device implanted into the body to provide structural support and restore height.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Testing: There is no mention of this device being used to analyze biological samples or provide diagnostic information. Its function is purely mechanical and structural.

Therefore, based on the provided information, the TPS-TL Spinal System is a surgical implant, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

§ 888.3060 Spinal intervertebral body fixation orthosis.

(a)
Identification. A spinal intervertebral body fixation orthosis is a device intended to be implanted made of titanium. It consists of various vertebral plates that are punched into each of a series of vertebral bodies. An eye-type screw is inserted in a hole in the center of each of the plates. A braided cable is threaded through each eye-type screw. The cable is tightened with a tension device and it is fastened or crimped at each eye-type screw. The device is used to apply force to a series of vertebrae to correct “sway back,” scoliosis (lateral curvature of the spine), or other conditions.(b)
Classification. Class II.

PREDICATE DEVICE

The predicate device is the Interpore Cross Telescopic Plate Spacer Thoracolumbar (TPS-TL) Spinal System which was previously cleared under 510(k) K010989.

INDICATIONS-FOR-USE

The TPS-TL Spinal System implants are vertebral body replacement devices intended for use in the thoracic and/or thoracolumbar spine (i.e., T3 to L5). The TPS-TL Spinal System is indicated to replace a diseased vertebral body(ies) resected or excised for the treatment of tumors in order to achieve anterior decompression of the spinal cord and neural tissues, and to restore the height of a collapsed vertebral body(ies). The TPS-TL Spinal System is also indicated for treating fractures of the thoracic and lumbar spine.

COMPARISON TO THE PREDICATE DEVICE

The larger Interpore Cross Telescopic Plate Spacer Thoracolumbar (TPS-TL) Spinal System implant is substantially equivalent to the currently available TPS-TL Spinal System implants. All implants are used to treat the same conditions, have the same precautions and contraindications for use, and have equivalent potential for complications associated with the risk of use. In addition, they both represent a basic design concept in terms of safety and effectiveness.

Based on the basic design concept, the use of established well known materials, feature comparisons, mechanical testing, indications for use, preproduction quality assurance planning and engineering analysis, Interpore Cross International believes that sufficient evidence exists to reasonably conclude that this device is substantially equivalent to the existing legally marketed implants.

DISCUSSION OF NONCLINICAL TESTS

Data regarding the functional performance of the proposed Interpore Cross Telescopic Plate Spacer Thoracolumbar (TPS-TL) Spinal System have been generated. The test data indicates that the proposed Interpore Cross TPS-TL Spinal System meets or exceeds all functional requirements and support its suitability for use.
