The summary describes a passive implantable device made of PEEK for vertebral body replacement and does not mention any computational or analytical functions, let alone AI/ML.
Yes.
The device is used to replace a collapsed, damaged, or unstable vertebral body in the spine due to tumor or trauma, aiming to achieve anterior decompression of the spinal cord and neural tissues, and to restore the height of a collapsed vertebral body. These actions directly address a medical condition and restore function, aligning with the definition of a therapeutic device.
No
The device is a vertebral body replacement system, an implant used in surgery, not a tool for diagnosis.
No
The device description clearly states it is a vertebral body replacement device manufactured from PEEK, indicating it is a physical implant, not software.
No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes a device that is surgically implanted into the spine to replace damaged vertebral bodies. This is a therapeutic and structural device, not a diagnostic one.
- Device Description: The description details the material (PEEK) and the purpose of the device as a vertebral body replacement for spinal stability. This aligns with a surgical implant, not a diagnostic test.
- Lack of Diagnostic Elements: There is no mention of analyzing samples (blood, tissue, etc.), detecting biomarkers, or providing information for diagnosis.
- Performance Studies: The performance studies mentioned are related to the mechanical strength and stability of the implant (ASTM F 2077 and F1717), which are relevant for surgical devices, not IVDs.
IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for the diagnosis, prevention, monitoring, treatment, or alleviation of disease. This device does not fit that description.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
The Aesculap PEEK Vertebral Body Replacement (VBR) System is indicated for use in the thoracolumbar spine (T1 to L5) for partial or total replacement of a collapsed, damaged, or unstable vertebral body due to tumor or trauma (i.e. fracture) to achieve anterior decompression of the spinal cord and neural tissues, and to restore the height of a collapsed vertebral body. The Aesculap PEEK VBR System is intended for use with supplemental spinal fixation systems such as the Aesculap S4 System. The Aesculap PEEK VBR System implants can be used individually or in pairs. The Aesculap PEEK VBR System is also intended for use with bone graft.

§ 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.
