The description focuses on the material, design, and intended use of a physical spinal implant and does not mention any software, algorithms, or data processing capabilities indicative of AI/ML.
Yes
The device is described as a vertebral body replacement device intended for use in the thoracolumbar spine to replace a collapsed, damaged, or unstable vertebral body, which is a therapeutic intervention.
No
The VERTE-STACK™ Spinal System is a vertebral body replacement device, intended for surgical correction and stabilization, not for diagnosing conditions.
No
The device description clearly states that the VERTE-STACK™ device is a physical, stackable PEEK spacer made from specific materials (PEEK OPTIMA LT and tantalum). This indicates it is a hardware device, not software-only.
Based on the provided information, the VERTE-STACK™ Spinal System is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.
Here's why:
- IVD devices are used to examine specimens from the human body. The VERTE-STACK™ Spinal System is a physical implant designed to replace a vertebral body in the spine. It is surgically implanted into the patient's body.
- The intended use is for surgical correction and stabilization of the spine. This is a therapeutic intervention, not a diagnostic test performed on a sample.
- The device description details a physical implant made of PEEK and tantalum. This is consistent with a medical device for implantation, not a reagent, instrument, or system used for in vitro testing.
Therefore, the VERTE-STACK™ Spinal System falls under the category of a medical device for surgical implantation, not an IVD.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The VERTE-STACK™ Spinal System is a vertebral body replacement device intended for use in the thoracolumbar spine (T1-L5) to replace a collapsed, damaged, or unstable vertebral body due to tumor or trauma (i.e., fracture). The VERTE-STACK™ Spinal System is to be used with supplemental fixation. Specifically, the VERTE-STACK™ device is to be used with the Medtronic Sofamor Danek ZPLATE II Anterior Fixation System, Titanium DYNALOK™ CLASSIC Spinal System, the VANTAGE™ Anterior Fixation System, Titanium TSRH® Spinal System, Titanium CD HORIZON® Spinal System, the Titanium GDLH® Spinal System, or their successors. Additionally, the VERTE-STACK™ device is intended to be used with bone graft.

Device Description
The VERTE-STACK™ device, is a stackable PEEK spacer, which inserts between vertebral bodies in the anterior thoracic and lumbar spine. The device is intended for vertebral body replacement to aid in the surgical correction and stabilization of the spine. The construct is not intended to be employed as a stand-alone device. The VERTE-STACK™ device is fabricated and manufactured from POLYETHERETHERKETONE (PEEK OPTIMA LT) as described by ASTM F-1579. The tantalum marker used for this product is made to the voluntary standard of ASTM F-560.
The design of the VERTE-STACK™ device includes a variety of stackable components of different sizes and heights. The stackable components are designed to suit the individual patient pathology.
The VERTE-STACK™ device mav be used individually. or two or more mav be stacked together in order to accommodate the individual anatomical requirements of the vertebral space created by the corpectomy.
The VERTE-STACK™ Spinal System must be used with additional anterior and/or posterior spinal instrumentation to augment stability.
The purpose of this submission is to include additional sizes to the VERTE-STACK™ Spinal System.

§ 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)
