The summary describes a bone cement and its intended use in vertebroplasty/kyphoplasty. There is no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or any other technology that would suggest the use of AI/ML. The performance studies focus on in vitro testing of the cement's properties compared to a predicate device.
Yes
The device is used for the fixation of pathological fractures of the vertebral body to relieve pain, which directly serves a therapeutic purpose.
No
Explanation: The device is a bone cement used for the fixation of pathological fractures, not for diagnosing medical conditions.
No
The device description clearly states it is a Polymethyl Methacrylate cement, 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 clearly states that Vertaplex Radiopaque Bone Cement is used for the "fixation of pathological fractures of the vertebral body using vertebroplasty of kyphoplasty procedures." This is a therapeutic procedure performed directly on the patient's body.
- Device Description: The description confirms it's a "Polymethyl Methacrylate cement used for the treatment of painful vertebral fractures." This is a material implanted into the body.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: IVD devices are used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) taken from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device does not involve the analysis of such specimens.
Therefore, Vertaplex Radiopaque Bone Cement is a medical device used for a surgical procedure, not an in vitro diagnostic device.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
Vertaplex Radiopaque Bone Cement is indicated for the fixation of pathological fractures of the vertebral body using vertebroplasty of kyphoplasty procedures. Painful vertebral compression fractures may result from osteoporosis, benign lesions (hemangioma), and malignant lesions (metastatic cancers, myeloma).

§ 888.3027 Polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) bone cement.
(a)
Identification. Polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) bone cement is a device intended to be implanted that is made from methylmethacrylate, polymethylmethacrylate, esters of methacrylic acid, or copolymers containing polymethylmethacrylate and polystyrene. The device is intended for use in arthroplastic procedures of the hip, knee, and other joints for the fixation of polymer or metallic prosthetic implants to living bone.(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). The special control for this device is the FDA guidance document entitled “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) Bone Cement.”

| Predicate Devices: | Stryker Spineplex Radiopaque Bone Cement - K032945 |
| Description: | Vertaplex is Polymethyl Methacrylate cement used for the treatment of painful
vertebral fractures based on the predicate device Spineplex. Vertaplex can be
injected directly into the fractured vertebral body by either Vertebroplasty or
Kyphoplasty procedures to relieve pain. |
| Intended Use: | Vertaplex Radiopaque Bone Cement is indicated for the fixation of pathological
fractures of the vertebral body using vertebroplasty of kyphoplasty procedures.
Painful vertebral compression fractures may result from osteoporosis, benign
lesions (hemangioma), and malignant lesions (metastatic cancers, myeloma). |
| Biocompatibility: | All appropriate biocompatibility tests have been performed on Vertaplex and
have met the standard requirements. |
Substantial Equivalence (SE) Rational: Stryker Vertaplex PMMA Bone Cement is made of the same chemical components as Stryker Spineplex.
Performance Standards: Stryker Vertaplex has been developed in accordance with the FDA Guidance document entitled "Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) Bone Cement."
Safety and Effectiveness: Stryker Vertaplex is substantially equivalent in design, materials, intended use and performance characteristics to the predicate device, Spineplex (K032945). In vitro testing shows that the device meets similar performance specifications as those for the predicate device. No new issues of safety or effectiveness are introduced by using this device.
