Intended Use
The StaXx™ XD System is a vertebral body replacement device intended for use in the thoracolumbar spine (T1-L5) to replace and restore height of a collapsed, damaged, or unstable vertebral body or portion thereof, due to tumor or trauma (i.e., fracture). The system is to be placed bilaterally and used with bone graft and supplemental spinal fixation. The supplemental fixation system that is intended to be used with the StaXxTM XD System is the Stryker Xia® Spinal System.
Device Description
The StaXxTM XD System is a vertebral body replacement device composed of wafers that are stacked into an expandable implant to adjust its height. The implant components are manufactured from PEEK-OPTIMA with 6% Barium Sulfate. The system also includes a delivery device to implant and expand the system. The device is offered in sizes ranging from 7mm to 30mm.

No
The summary describes a mechanical vertebral body replacement device and its delivery system. There is no mention of software, algorithms, image processing, or any terms related to AI/ML.

No.
A therapeutic device intends to treat or cure a disease or condition. This device is a vertebral body replacement, which is a structural implant, not a therapeutic agent.

No

The device is a vertebral body replacement system, an implant used in surgery to replace or restore vertebral height, which is a therapeutic function, not a diagnostic one.

No

The device description clearly states it is a vertebral body replacement device composed of physical components (wafers, expandable implant, delivery device) made from PEEK-OPTIMA with Barium Sulfate, indicating it is a hardware device, not software-only.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes a surgical implant used to replace a vertebral body in the spine due to tumor or trauma. This is a therapeutic device, not a diagnostic one.
  • Device Description: The description details a physical implant made of PEEK material, designed to be surgically placed. This is consistent with a medical device used for treatment, not for analyzing biological samples.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), providing diagnostic information, or using reagents or assays, which are hallmarks of IVD devices.

Therefore, the StaXx™ XD System is a medical device, specifically a vertebral body replacement device, and not 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.
