Intended Use
The VERTEBRON SCP™ Cervical Plate System is intended for anterior interbody fixation of the cervical spine. The system is indicated for use in the temporary stabilization of the anterior spine during the development of cervical spine fusions in patients with degenerative disc disease (as defined by neck pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by patient history and radiographic studies), trauma (including fractures), tumors, deformity (defined as kyphosis, lordosis, or scoliosis), pseudoarthriosis, and/or failed previous fusions. The SCP™ Cervical Plate System can be implanted in the sub-axial cervical spine from C3 through C7 levels.
Device Description
The material used is medical grade titanium material that conforms to ASTM F136.
More Information

Not Found

No
The 510(k) summary describes a physical implant (cervical plate system) and does not mention any software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate the use of AI or ML.

Yes.
The device is intended for temporary stabilization during spinal fusions to treat degenerative disc disease, trauma, tumors, and deformities, which are conditions addressed by therapeutic interventions.

No

Explanation: The VERTEBRON SCP™ Cervical Plate System is described as a device for "anterior interbody fixation of the cervical spine" and "temporary stabilization of the anterior spine during the development of cervical spine fusions." This indicates it is a therapeutic or implantable device used in treatment, not a device used to identify or analyze a condition.

No

The device description explicitly states the material used is medical grade titanium, indicating it is a physical implant and not software-only.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health. This information is used for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Device Description and Intended Use: The description clearly states that the VERTEBRON SCP™ Cervical Plate System is an implantable device intended for anterior interbody fixation of the cervical spine. It is a physical device used to stabilize the spine during fusion.
  • No Mention of Specimens or Analysis: The description does not mention the analysis of any biological specimens.

Therefore, based on the provided information, the VERTEBRON SCP™ Cervical Plate System is a surgical implant, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

§ 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.
