Intended 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, the DYNALOK™ CLASSIC Spinal System, the VANTAGE™ Anterior Fixation System, the TSRH® Spinal System, the CD HORIZON® Spinal System, the GDLH® Spinal System and/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 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) along with a tantalum marker. Alternatively the device may be manufactured from titanium alloy.

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 may be used individually, or two or more may 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. VERTE-STACK™ constructs manufactured with PEEK may be used with stainless steel or titanium supplemental fixation devices. Titanium VERTE-STACK™ constructs may not be used with stainless steel supplemental fixation devices.

The purpose of this submission is to include modified versions of the previously cleared VERTE-STACK™ Spinal System components.

AI/ML Overview

This document is a 510(k) summary for the VERTE-STACK™ Spinal System. It does not contain information about acceptance criteria or a study proving the device meets acceptance criteria. A 510(k) submission primarily focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device, rather than presenting de novo clinical study results against predefined acceptance criteria.

Therefore, I cannot answer your request based on the provided text. The document does not include:

  1. A table of acceptance criteria and reported device performance.
  2. Sample size used for a test set or data provenance.
  3. Number of experts or their qualifications for ground truth establishment.
  4. Adjudication method for a test set.
  5. Information about a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study.
  6. Information about a standalone algorithm performance study.
  7. The type of ground truth used.
  8. The sample size for a training set.
  9. How the ground truth for a training set was established.

The core of this document is to establish substantial equivalence for modifications to an existing device, as stated in section V: "Documentation was provided which demonstrated the VERTE-STACK™ Spinal System to be substantially equivalent to the previously cleared VERTE-STACK™ Spinal System (K030736, SE 04/02/03)."

§ 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.
