The 510(k) summary describes a mechanical spinal implant system and does not mention any software, algorithms, or AI/ML capabilities.
Yes
The device is intended to treat multiple medical conditions such as degenerative disc disease and spondylolisthesis, and is designed to stabilize the spine as an aid to fusion, indicating a therapeutic purpose.
No.
The device is a spinal implant system used for stabilization and fusion, not for diagnosing medical conditions.
No
The device description clearly states it is a "screw and washer system comprised of a variety of sizes of non-sterile, single use implantable components" made of titanium alloy. This describes physical hardware, not software.
No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are devices used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
- Device Description and Intended Use: The provided text clearly describes a surgical implant (screws and washers) intended to be placed within the human body to stabilize the spine and aid in fusion. It is a mechanical device used for structural support and fixation.
- Lack of Specimen Analysis: There is no mention of this device being used to analyze any biological specimens.
Therefore, based on the provided information, the Life Spine Facet Screw Spinal System is a surgical implant, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
The Life Spine Facet Screw System, when properly used, is intended to stabilize the spine as an aid to fusion through bilateral immobilization of the facet joints. The screws are inserted posteriorly through the superior side of the facet, across the facet joint, and into the pedicle. The Life Spine Facet Screw System is indicated for bilateral facet fixation, with or without bone graft, at single or multiple levels, from L1 to S1.
The Life Spine Facet Screw Spinal System is indicated for treatment of any or all of the following: degenerative disc disease (DDD) (defined as back pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc as confirmed by patient history and radiographic studies), spondylolisthesis, spondylosis, fracture, degeneration of the facets with instability, pseudoarthrosis, and failed previous fusion.
