The summary describes a bone cement and its physical properties, with no mention of software, algorithms, or any technology related to AI or ML.
Yes
The device is used for the fixation of pathological fractures of the vertebral body, addressing painful vertebral compression fractures. It aims to improve patient outcomes by consolidating the vertebral body and providing rapid pain alleviation, which are therapeutic actions.
No
Explanation: The device, Vertecem Bone Cement, is described as a material used for the fixation of pathological fractures and for consolidation of the vertebral body. Its function is therapeutic (fixation, consolidation), not diagnostic (identifying or characterizing a medical condition).
No
The device description clearly states it is a "self-hardening and ready to use bone cement" made of "two sterile components: the polymer in powder and the liquid monomer." This describes 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 is for the fixation of pathological fractures of the vertebral body using surgical procedures (vertebroplasty or kyphoplasty). This is a therapeutic intervention performed directly on the patient's body.
- Device Description: The device is a bone cement, a material used to fill and stabilize bone fractures. This is a physical material used in a surgical procedure.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: IVD devices are used in vitro (outside the body) to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. The description of the Vertecem Bone Cement does not involve any such in vitro testing or analysis of biological specimens.
Therefore, the Vertecem Bone Cement is a medical device used for a surgical procedure, not an in vitro diagnostic device.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The Vertecem Bone Cement is used for the fixation of pathological fractures of the vertebral body using vertebroplasty or kyphoplasty procedures. Painful vertebral compression fractures of the vertebral body may result from osteoporosis, benign lesions (hemangioma), or malignant lesions (metastatic cancers, myeloma).

Device Description
Vertecem is a self-hardening and ready to use bone cement with a high amount of radiopaque agent for percutaneous vertebroplasty. It allows an excellent consolidation of the vertebral body and an effective and rapid privation in this type of coment is made of two sterile components: the polymer in powder and the liquid monomer. These two components are in a double sterile packaging. Each unit contains a sterile ampoule of liquid within a blister pack and a powder within a double peelable pouch, the whole being packaged in a hox.
Materials:
The liquid component is mainly composed of methyl methacrylate. The major powder component is polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA). Benzoyl peroxide which initiates the polymerization is included in the polymer powder.

(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.”
