Intended Use
The Dyn-ALIF device is indicated for intervertebral body fusion of the spine in skeletally mature patients. The device is designed for use with autogenous bone graft to facilitate fusion. The Dyn-ALIF device is intended for use at either one level or two contiguous levels in the lumbar spine from L2 to S1 for the treatment of degenerative disc disease (DDD) with up to grade I spondylolisthesis. DDD is defined as back pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. The lumbar device is to be used in patients who have had at least six months of non-operative treatment. The device is intended to be used with supplemental internal spinal fixation systems which are cleared by the FDA for use in the lumbar spine.
Device Description
The Dyn-ALIF Anterolateral Intervertebral Body Fusion Device is an implantable device manufactured from titanium alloy which is available in the abutting plate interface dimension of 20mm x 30mm and a vertically expandable height ranging from 11mm anterior /9mm posterior to 15mm anterior/13mm posterior to suit the individual anatomic conditions of the patient. The assembled device consists of five components: two abutting plates with hollow threaded shafts, a central turnbuckle sleeve and two locking set screws. The components can be rigidly locked into a variety of heights, with each construct height measured for the individual case

No
The summary describes a mechanical implant for spinal fusion and does not mention any software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate the use of AI/ML.

No
The device is an implantable intervertebral body fusion device used in spinal surgery, which is considered a surgical or structural intervention rather than a therapeutic device in the sense of delivering therapy or affecting a biological process in a therapeutic manner.

No.

The device is an implantable fusion device used for treatment, not for diagnosing conditions.

No

The device description explicitly states it is an "implantable device manufactured from titanium alloy" and describes its physical components, indicating it is a hardware device, not software-only.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the device is for "intervertebral body fusion of the spine in skeletally mature patients." This is a surgical implant used directly in the body for a structural purpose.
  • Device Description: The description details an "implantable device manufactured from titanium alloy" with mechanical components designed for surgical implantation and stabilization.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue, etc.) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.

IVD devices are used outside the body to analyze biological samples. The Dyn-ALIF device is an implantable medical device used inside the body for surgical treatment.

§ 888.3080 Intervertebral body fusion device.

(a)
Identification. An intervertebral body fusion device is an implanted single or multiple component spinal device made from a variety of materials, including titanium and polymers. The device is inserted into the intervertebral body space of the cervical or lumbosacral spine, and is intended for intervertebral body fusion.(b)
Classification. (1) Class II (special controls) for intervertebral body fusion devices that contain bone grafting material. The special control is the FDA guidance document entitled “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Intervertebral Body Fusion Device.” See § 888.1(e) for the availability of this guidance document.(2) Class III (premarket approval) for intervertebral body fusion devices that include any therapeutic biologic (e.g., bone morphogenic protein). Intervertebral body fusion devices that contain any therapeutic biologic require premarket approval.
(c)
Date premarket approval application (PMA) or notice of product development protocol (PDP) is required. Devices described in paragraph (b)(2) of this section shall have an approved PMA or a declared completed PDP in effect before being placed in commercial distribution.

Dear M. Laine Mashburn:

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.
