More Information

Not Found

No
The 510(k) summary describes a mechanical implant system (plates and screws) for spinal fusion and does not mention any software, algorithms, or AI/ML components.

Yes
The device is described as an "Anterior Cervical Plating System" intended for "anterior cervical fixation as an adjunct to cervical fusion" for various medical conditions, indicating it directly treats or alleviates a diseased or injured condition.

No
Explanation: The device is an anterior cervical plating system intended for fixation as an adjunct to cervical fusion. It is a surgical implant used for treatment, not for diagnosing a condition.

No

The device description explicitly states it consists of plates, screws, and surgical instruments, which are hardware components.

No, 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, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
  • Device Description: The description clearly states the Pioneer SlimFuse Anterior Cervical Plating System consists of "an assortment of plates and screws" and "manual surgical instruments." These are physical implants and tools used during surgery on the body, not for testing samples outside the body.
  • Intended Use: The intended use describes the system's purpose as "anterior cervical fixation as an adjunct to cervical fusion." This is a surgical procedure to stabilize the spine, not a diagnostic test.

The information provided describes a surgical implant system, not a device used for in vitro diagnostic testing.

§ 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 Mr. Gilbert:

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.
