Intended Use
The Cardo Medical Cervical Plate System components are intended for anterior interbody fixation of the cervical spine. The system is indicated for use in the temporary stabilization of the anterior spine during the development of cervical spine fusions in patients with: - Degenerative disk disease (as defined by neck pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies); - Trauma (including fractures) . - Tumor ● - Deformity (defined as kyphosis, lordosis or scollosis) . - Pseudoarthrosis . - Failed previous fusions. ● The Cardo Medical Cervical Plate System can be implanted in the sub-axial cervical spine from C3 through C7.
Device Description
The Cardo Medical Cervical Plate System consists of titanium cervical plates and both self-tapping and self-drilling screw components. The surgeon uses the components to make a construct that is placed anteriorly for spinal fixation. The construct is used for temporary fixation which allows for fusion of the cervical spine. The modified system includes the addition of a fixed angle cervical screw as an option for the surgeon.
More Information

No
The 510(k) summary describes a mechanical implant (cervical plate system) and does not mention any software, algorithms, or AI/ML capabilities. The performance studies are based on mechanical testing standards.

Yes.
The device is used for temporary stabilization and fusion of the cervical spine to treat various medical conditions such as degenerative disk disease, trauma, tumor, and deformity, which aligns with the definition of a therapeutic device.

No

Explanation: The device is a cervical plate system used for temporary stabilization and fusion of the cervical spine, which is a therapeutic purpose, not a diagnostic one.

No

The device description explicitly states the system consists of titanium cervical plates and screw components, which are physical hardware.

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 temporary stabilization of the anterior spine during cervical spine fusions. This is a surgical procedure performed directly on the patient's body.
  • Device Description: The device consists of titanium plates and screws, which are implanted surgically.
  • 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 compatibility testing.

IVD devices are used in vitro (outside the body) to analyze biological samples. This device is used in vivo (inside the body) as an implant for structural support.

§ 888.3060 Spinal intervertebral body fixation orthosis.

(a)
Identification. A spinal intervertebral body fixation orthosis is a device intended to be implanted made of titanium. It consists of various vertebral plates that are punched into each of a series of vertebral bodies. An eye-type screw is inserted in a hole in the center of each of the plates. A braided cable is threaded through each eye-type screw. The cable is tightened with a tension device and it is fastened or crimped at each eye-type screw. The device is used to apply force to a series of vertebrae to correct “sway back,” scoliosis (lateral curvature of the spine), or other conditions.(b)
Classification. Class II.

Medical Cervical Plate System is intended for anterior interb cervical spine. The system is indicated for use in the temporary stabilization of the anterior spine during the development of cervical spine fusions in patients with degenerative disk disease (as defined by neck pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies); trauma (including fracture); tumor; deformity (defined as kyphosis, lordosis or scollosis): pseudoarthrosis: and/or failed previous fusions. The Cardo Medical Cervical Plate System can be implanted in the sub-axial cervical spine from C3 through C7.

Comparison to Predicates:

The Cardo Medical Cervical Plate System consists of plates and screws manufactured from the same titanium alloy as the Vertebron, Inc. Cervical Plate Systems. Therefore, the devices are equivalent to the Vertebron, Inc. Cervical Plate System.

Cardo Medical has determined that any differences in the proposed device will not impact the safety or effectiveness of the cervical plate system for its intended use. Testing has shown that the proposed device meets the requirements of the current FDA Guidance document entitled "Spinal System 510(k)s" dated May 3, 2004, and that the proposed device is equivalent to the predicate device.

Synopsis of Test Methods and Results:

Tests were performed on the cervical plate system. The testing was performed in accordance with ASTM F1717, Standard Test Methods for Static and Fatigue for Spinal Implant Constructs in a Vertebrectorny Model. The proposed device was equivalent to the predicate device for all testing performed.
