The description focuses on the mechanical components and function of a spinal fixation system, with no mention of AI or ML.
Yes
The device is intended for the immobilization and stabilization of spinal segments as an adjunct to fusion in the treatment of various acute and chronic instabilities or deformities, which is a therapeutic purpose.
No
The device is a pedicle screw fixation system intended for immobilization and stabilization of spinal segments as an adjunct to fusion. It is a treatment device, not a diagnostic one.
No
The device description explicitly lists physical components made of Wrought Titanium 6Al4V ELI Alloy, such as set screws, hex nuts, hooks, rods, screws, and cross link assemblies. This indicates it is a hardware-based medical device, not software-only.
Based on the provided text, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes the device as a "pedicle screw fixation system" for "immobilization and stabilization of spinal segments as an adjunct to fusion." This is a surgical implant used in vivo (within the body) to treat structural issues of the spine.
- Device Description: The description details components like screws, rods, and hooks made of titanium alloy, which are typical for surgical implants.
- Function: The stated function is to "assist in arthrodesis or fusion of the thoracic, lumbar and lumbosacral spine," which is a surgical procedure.
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) taken from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device does not perform such tests on specimens.
The device is a surgical implant used to mechanically stabilize the spine, not to perform diagnostic tests on biological samples.

All components are made from Wrought Titanium 6Al4V ELI Alloy (ASTM F-136).
The components under review are the Polvaxial screws. Polyaxial upper body head, and concave compression washer. The AMT Polyaxial Pedicle Screw serves as an additional option to the pedicle screw configurations currently offered in the AMT Spinal™ System (K002059). in a construct system. The AMT Polyaxial Pedicle Screw utilizes the same straight forward simple instruments and is identical to the pedicle screws currently offered in the AMT Spinal™ System in the all areas with the exception of the following:
- The top loading polyaxial head allowing for greater positioning abilities.
- The rotating head (polyaxial) eliminates the need to bend rods for constructs up to the . three (3) vertebral levels.
- The rotating head (polyaxial) can be rotated allowing the surgeon greater versatility in ● positioning rod and screws to the anatomy.
- Allows anatomical screw placement and easy rod positioning. ●
- This allows the surgeon multi-angle pedicle screw insertion. .

§ 888.3070 Thoracolumbosacral pedicle screw system.
(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.
