Intended Use
The TranS1™ Axial Fixation System is indicated for patients requiring fusion to treat pseudoarthrosis, unsuccessful previous fusion, spinal stenosis, spondylolisthesis (Grade 1 or 2), or degenerative disc disease as defined as back pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. The TranS1™ Axial Fixation System is not intended to treat severe scoliosis, severe spondylolisthesis (Grades 3 and 4), tumor or trauma. Its usage is limited to anterior supplemental fixation of the lumbar spine at L5-S1 in conjunction with legally marketed pedicle screw systems.
Device Description
The TranS1 Axial Fixation System is a multi-component system including titanium alloy implantable devices and instrumentation made of titanium alloy and stainless steel. The following components are included: 3D Axial Fixation Threaded Rod/Screw, Axial Fixation Screw Plug, Axial Fixation Screw Driver, Material Inserter, and Axial Fixation Screw Plug Driver.
More Information

No
The 510(k) summary describes a mechanical fixation system and instrumentation, with no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or performance studies related to algorithmic analysis.

Yes
The device is indicated for patients requiring fusion to treat chronic conditions like pseudoarthrosis, unsuccessful previous fusion, spinal stenosis, spondylolisthesis, or degenerative disc disease, which aligns with the definition of a therapeutic device.

No

The device is described as an axial fixation system, consisting of implantable components and instrumentation for spinal fusion. Its intended use is to treat existing conditions like pseudoarthrosis, spinal stenosis, or degenerative disc disease, rather than to diagnose them. It provides fixation, not diagnostic information.

No

The device description explicitly states it includes titanium alloy implantable devices and instrumentation made of titanium alloy and stainless steel, indicating it is a hardware-based system.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
  • Device Description and Intended Use: The TranS1™ Axial Fixation System is described as a multi-component system of implantable devices (rods, screws, plugs) and instrumentation used for surgical fixation of the lumbar spine. Its intended use is to treat various spinal conditions requiring fusion.
  • Lack of Biological Sample Analysis: There is no mention of this device analyzing any biological samples from the patient. Its function is purely mechanical and structural within the body.

Therefore, the TranS1™ Axial Fixation System falls under the category of a surgical implant/device rather than an in vitro diagnostic.

§ 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.
