No
The device description and intended use clearly describe a mechanical implant system (plates and screws) for spinal fixation, with no mention of software, algorithms, or any technology that would typically incorporate AI/ML. The "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML" and "Mentions image processing" fields are also explicitly marked as "Not Found".
Yes
The device is described as an anterior cervical plating system intended for fixation to the cervical spine to treat various clinical conditions, including degenerative disc disease, fracture, and tumor, which are therapeutic interventions.
No
The device is a system of implants and tools used for surgical fixation of the cervical spine, not for diagnosing conditions.
No
The device description clearly states it is a "titanium alloy, multiple component system comprised of a variety of non-sterile, single-use components" including "screws, plates and associated instrumentation," which are physical hardware components, not software.
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. They are used outside of the body.
- Device Description: The Blackstone™ Fusion Anterior Cervical Plating System is described as a system of titanium alloy components (screws, plates) that are surgically implanted into the body to fix the cervical spine.
- Intended Use: The intended use is for anterior fixation to the cervical spine for various conditions. This is a surgical procedure performed on the body.
The description clearly indicates this is an implantable surgical device, not a device used for testing samples outside the body.

§ 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.

Dear Mr. Ciporkin:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
