The summary describes a mechanical vertebral body replacement device and its components, with no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate the use of AI or ML.
Yes
The device is a vertebral body replacement device intended to treat a collapsed, damaged, or unstable vertebral body due to tumor or trauma, which implies a therapeutic purpose.
No
Explanation: The VERTE-STACK® Spinal System is a vertebral body replacement device, which is an implant used for structural support, not for diagnosing conditions.
No
The device description clearly states it is a physical implant made of PEEK or titanium, consisting of various components for vertebral body replacement. It does not describe any software functionality.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the VERTE-STACK® Spinal System is a vertebral body replacement device for use in the thoracolumbar spine due to tumor or trauma. This is a surgical implant used directly in the body.
- Device Description: The description details the physical components of the device (cages, materials) and how they are assembled and implanted. This is consistent with a surgical implant.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue samples) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
IVD devices are used outside the body to analyze biological samples. The VERTE-STACK® Spinal System is a surgical implant used inside the body.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
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 tumor 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 ZPLATE II™ Anterior Fixation System, the DYNA-LOK CLASSIC® Spinal System, the VANTAGE® Anterior Fixation System, the TSRH® Spinal System, the CD HORIZON® Spinal System and/or the GDLH® Spinal System. Additionally, the VERTE-STACK® device is intended to be used with bone graft.

Device Description
The VERTE-STACK® device consists of hemi-cylindrical center cages of various lengths and diameters, as well as hemi-cylindrical add on cages of various lengths, diameters and angulation. The assembled VERTE-STACK® device consists of three components (one hollow center cage, and two hollow add-on cages). The VERTE-STACK® components can be rigidly locked into a variety of configurations, with each construct being tailor-made for the individual case.
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 implant components are made of medical grade PEEK-OPTIMA LT1 along with a marker made from either Tantalum or titanium. Alternatively, VERTE-STACK® Spinal System may be manufactured from titanium alloy.
The VERTE-STACK® Spinal System must be used with additional anterior and/or posterior spinal instrumentation to augment stability. VERTE-STACK® constructs manufactured from 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 was to modify the geometry of the implants and to include additional sizes into the existing VERTE-STACK® Spinal System.

§ 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.

Dear Ms. Scifert:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.

This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your Section 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.
If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801), please contact the Office of Compliance at (240) 276-0120. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21CFR Part 807.97).
