The document describes a physical implantable device for spinal fusion and vertebral body replacement. There is no mention of software, algorithms, or any computational components that would suggest the use of AI or ML. The performance studies are based on mechanical testing standards.
Yes
The device is intended for spinal fusion procedures to treat degenerative disc disease, replace vertebral bodies due to tumor or trauma/fracture, and restore biomechanical integrity of the spine. These are all therapeutic actions aimed at treating a medical condition or injury.
No
Explanation: The Lanx Small Intervertebral Body/VBR Fusion System is described as a device intended for spinal fusion procedures and vertebral body replacement, which are treatment interventions, not diagnostic processes. It does not mention any function for identifying or characterizing disease.
No
The device description explicitly states it is made of PEEK-OPTIMA® or titanium alloy and is a physical implant for spinal fusion, not software.
Based on the provided text, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
- Device Description and Intended Use: The description clearly states that the Lanx Small Intervertebral Body/VBR Fusion System is an implantable device made of PEEK or titanium alloy, intended for spinal fusion and vertebral body replacement. It is surgically implanted into the body.
- Lack of Diagnostic Function: The device's purpose is structural support and fusion, not the analysis of biological samples for diagnostic purposes.
Therefore, the Lanx Small Intervertebral Body/VBR Fusion System falls under the category of a surgical implant or medical device, not an in vitro diagnostic.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
When used as a cervical intervertebral body fusion device, the Lanx Small Intervertebral Body/VBR Fusion System is intended for spinal fusion procedures to be used with autogenous bone graft in skeletally mature patients with degenerative disc disease ("DDD") at one spinal level from the C2-C3 disc to the C7-T1 disc. DDD is defined as neck pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. These patients should have had at least six weeks of non-operative treatment. The Lanx Fusion System is to be implanted via an anterior approach and is to be combined with supplemental fixation. Approved supplemental fixation systems include the Lanx Anterior Cervical Plate System.
When used as a lumbar intervertebral body fusion device, the Lanx Small Intervertebral Body/VBR Fusion System is intended for spinal fusion procedures to be used with autogenous bone graft in skeletally mature patients with degenerative disc disease ("DDD") at one or two contiguous spinal levels from L2-S1. DDD is defined as discogenic back pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. These patients should have had six months of non-operative treatment. These DDD patients may have had a previous non-fusion spinal surgery at the involved spinal level(s), and may have up to Grade 1 spondylolisthesis or retrolisthesis at the involved level(s). The Lanx Fusion System is to be implanted via an anterior or posterior approach and is to be combined with supplemental fixation. Approved supplemental fixation systems include the Lanx Spinal Fixation System.
When used as vertebral body replacement, the Lanx Small Intervertebral Body/VBR Fusion System is indicated for use to replace a vertebral body that has been resected or excised due to tumor or trauma/fracture. The device is intended for use as a vertebral body replacement in the thoracolumbar spine (from T1 to L5) The Lanx Vertebral Body Replacement System may also be used in the thoracolumbar spine (i.e. T1- L5) for partial replacement (i.e., partial vertebrectomy) of a diseased vertebral body resected or excised for the treatment of turnors in order to achieve anterior decompression of the spinal cord and neural tissues, and to restore the height of a collapsed vertebral body. The Lanx Vertebral Body Replacement System is also indicated for treating fractures of the thoracic and lumbar spine. The Lanx Vertebral Body Replacement System is designed to restore the biomechanical integrity of the anterior, middle, and posterior spinal column. For either indication the system must be used with supplemental internal fixation. Supplemental internal fixation is required to properly utilize this system.

§ 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.
