Intended Use
Vspspn is indicated for the treatment of pathological fractures of the vertebral body using a vertebroplasty or kyphoplasty procedure. Painful vertebral compression fractures may result from osteoporosis, benign lesions (hemangioma), and malignant lesions (metastatic cancers, myeloma).
Device Description
Vspspn is a two-part (powder and liquid) radiopaque, polymethyl methacrylate acrylic resin. The powder and liquid components are mixed together at the point of use to form the resin. The product is supplied sterile, for single use.
More Information

No
The device description is for a bone cement used in vertebroplasty/kyphoplasty and there is no mention of AI/ML or related concepts like image processing, training/test sets, or performance metrics typically associated with AI/ML devices.

Yes
The device is used for the treatment of pathological fractures of the vertebral body, indicating a therapeutic purpose.

No
Explanation: The device is indicated for the "treatment of pathological fractures of the vertebral body" and is described as a "polymethyl methacrylate acrylic resin" used in vertebroplasty or kyphoplasty procedures. This indicates a therapeutic or interventional purpose, not a diagnostic one.

No

The device description clearly states it is a two-part (powder and liquid) polymethyl methacrylate acrylic resin, which is a physical material, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for the treatment of pathological fractures of the vertebral body using a vertebroplasty or kyphoplasty procedure. This is a therapeutic procedure performed directly on the patient's body.
  • Device Description: The device is a bone cement (polymethyl methacrylate acrylic resin) that is mixed and used during a surgical procedure. This is a medical device used for treatment.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: IVD devices are used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, tissue) taken from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. The provided information does not mention any such use or interaction with patient specimens for diagnostic purposes.

Therefore, Vspspn is a medical device used for a therapeutic procedure, not an in vitro diagnostic device.
