Intended Use
The Mesh Introducer Needle is indicated for use in combination with the Confidence Bone Cement Delivery System. The Confidence Bone Cement Delivery System is intended for percutaneous delivery of Confidence Bone Cements, which are indicated for fixation of pathological fractures of the vertebral body during vertebroplasty or kyphoplasty procedures.
Device Description
The Mesh Introducer Needle is a combination of a Bone Access Assembly (Single Step Instrument) and a Mesh Assembly. The Bone Access Assembly comprises a cannula (acting as a working channel), a dilator-reamer, and a K-wire. The Mesh Assembly comprises a fabric-made mesh (pouch) through which the bone cement is introduced into the treatment site, mounted on a small diameter injection cannula, provided with a blunt edge stylet.
More Information

No
The document describes a mechanical device for delivering bone cement and does not mention any software, algorithms, or AI/ML terms.

Yes
The device is used in vertebroplasty or kyphoplasty procedures to deliver bone cement for fixation of pathological fractures of the vertebral body, indicating therapeutic intent to treat a medical condition.

No
The device is described as an introducer needle used for delivering bone cement to fix fractures, which is a therapeutic rather than a diagnostic function.

No

The device description clearly outlines physical components like a cannula, dilator-reamer, K-wire, and a fabric-made mesh, indicating it is a hardware device.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information about a person's health.
  • Device Function: The Mesh Introducer Needle is used in vivo (within the body) to deliver bone cement during surgical procedures (vertebroplasty or kyphoplasty). It is a surgical instrument, not a diagnostic tool that analyzes samples.
  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states its purpose is for "percutaneous delivery of Confidence Bone Cements" for "fixation of pathological fractures of the vertebral body." This is a therapeutic and structural function, not a diagnostic one.

Therefore, the Mesh Introducer Needle falls under the category of a surgical device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic.
