Intended Use
The EOI Spinal System is intended to provide immobilization and stabilization of spinal segments in skeletally mature patients as an adjunct to spinal fusion of the thoracic, lumbar, and/or sacral spine. The EOI Spinal System is limited to non-cervical, pedicle use and is specifically indicated for treatment of one or more of the following acute and chronic instabilities or deformities: 1. Degenerative disc disease (as defined by back pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies); 2. Spondylolisthesis; 3. Trauma (fracture or dislocation); 4. Deformities or curvatures (scoliosis, kyphosis, and/or lordosis); 5. Tumor; 6. Spinal stenosis; 7. Pseudoarthrosis; and/or 8. Failed previous fusion.
Device Description
The EOI Spinal System consists of polyaxial pedicle screws in varying diameters and lengths, Ø5.5mm straight and pre-bent rods in varying lengths, and cross connectors in adjustable widths to build a spinal construct. EOI Spinal System components are manufactured from implant grade titanium alloy [Ti-6Al-4V ELI] in accordance with ASTM F-136. Instrumentation is also available to facilitate implantation of the device components. The EOI Spinal System can be rigidly locked into a variety of configurations suitable to the patient's unique anatomy. Implant components and instrumentation are provided non-sterily and must be sterilized prior to use. As with all orthopedic implants, all implant components in this system are single-use and should never be reused.

The device description and performance studies focus on mechanical properties and traditional spinal implant components, with no mention of AI/ML or related concepts like image processing, training/test sets, or performance metrics typically associated with AI/ML algorithms.

Yes
Explanation: The device is intended to provide immobilization and stabilization of spinal segments as an adjunct to spinal fusion for various medical conditions, indicating a therapeutic purpose.

No

Explanation: The EOI Spinal System is described as providing immobilization and stabilization of spinal segments as an adjunct to spinal fusion, consisting of components like screws and rods to build a spinal construct. Its intended use and device description focus on treatment and mechanical support rather than identifying or analyzing medical conditions.

No

The device description explicitly states the system consists of physical components like pedicle screws, rods, and cross connectors made from titanium alloy, which are hardware implants.

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 the EOI Spinal System is for "immobilization and stabilization of spinal segments... as an adjunct to spinal fusion." This describes a surgical implant used in vivo (within the body) to treat structural issues.
  • Device Description: The description details physical components like screws, rods, and connectors made of titanium alloy, which are typical for surgical implants.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue, etc.) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.

IVD devices are used in vitro (outside the body) to analyze biological samples. The EOI Spinal System is a surgical implant used in vivo.

(a)
Identification. (1) Rigid pedicle screw systems are comprised of multiple components, made from a variety of materials that allow the surgeon to build an implant system to fit the patient's anatomical and physiological requirements. Such a spinal implant assembly consists of a combination of screws, longitudinal members (e.g., plates, rods including dual diameter rods, plate/rod combinations), transverse or cross connectors, and interconnection mechanisms (e.g., rod-to-rod connectors, offset connectors).(2) Semi-rigid systems are defined as systems that contain one or more of the following features (including but not limited to): Non-uniform longitudinal elements, or features that allow more motion or flexibility compared to rigid systems.
(b)
Classification. (1) Class II (special controls), when intended to provide immobilization and stabilization of spinal segments in skeletally mature patients as an adjunct to fusion in the treatment of the following acute and chronic instabilities or deformities of the thoracic, lumbar, and sacral spine: severe spondylolisthesis (grades 3 and 4) of the L5-S1 vertebra; degenerative spondylolisthesis with objective evidence of neurologic impairment; fracture; dislocation; scoliosis; kyphosis; spinal tumor; and failed previous fusion (pseudarthrosis). These pedicle screw spinal systems must comply with the following special controls:(i) Compliance with material standards;
(ii) Compliance with mechanical testing standards;
(iii) Compliance with biocompatibility standards; and
