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 turnor 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, DYNALOK™ CLASSIC Spinal System, the VANTAGE™ Anterior Fixation System, TSRH® Spinal System, CD HORIZON® Spinal System, the GDLH® Spinal System, or their successors. Additionally, the VERTE-STACK® device is intended to be used with bone graft.
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 POLYETHERETONE (PEEK OPTIMA LT1) along with either titanium or tantalum markers. Alternatively the entire 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 slightly modified components to the previously cleared VERTE-STACK® Spinal System.
I am sorry, but based on the provided document, I cannot answer your request. The document is a 510(k) summary for the VERTE-STACK® Spinal System, which is a medical device. It describes the product, its indications for use, and its substantial equivalence to previously cleared devices.
The information you are asking for, such as acceptance criteria, specific study details (sample sizes, data provenance, expert ground truth, adjudication methods, MRMC studies, standalone performance), and training set details, are typically found in detailed clinical trial reports or validation studies, which are not part of this 510(k) summary. A 510(k) summary focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device rather than providing extensive details on new performance studies.
§ 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.
