Intended Use
The Choice Spine Anterior Cervical Plate (ACP) System is intended for anterior screw fixation of the cervical spine (levels C2 to C7) and is designed to provide stabilization as an adjunct to spinal fusion at these levels. Indications for the use of this device include: failed previous fusion, pseudoarthrosis, tumor, deformity, spinal stenosis, trauma, spondylolisthesis, or degenerative disc disease defined as neck pain of discogenic origin with the degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies.
Device Description
The Choice Spine Anterior Cervical Plate (ACP) System is an anterior cervical spinal fixation system consisting of plates and screws. The plates are available in multiple lengths to accommodate single or multi-level surgeries and different anatomies.

No
The summary describes a mechanical implant for spinal fixation and does not mention any software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate the use of AI/ML.

Yes
The device is described as an "anterior cervical spinal fixation system" intended for "stabilization as an adjunct to spinal fusion," which implies a therapeutic purpose.

No

The provided text describes a medical device, the Choice Spine Anterior Cervical Plate (ACP) System, which is a spinal fixation system. Its intended use is to provide stabilization as an adjunct to spinal fusion. While it is used in conditions that are diagnosed (e.g., tumor, deformity, degenerative disc disease), the device itself is a treatment or stabilization device, not one that gathers information or produces a diagnosis.

No

The device description explicitly states it consists of "plates and screws," which are hardware components, not software.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information about a person's health.
  • Device Description: The Choice Spine Anterior Cervical Plate (ACP) System is a physical implant (plates and screws) used for surgical fixation of the cervical spine. It is a surgical device, not a diagnostic test.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is for "anterior screw fixation of the cervical spine... designed to provide stabilization as an adjunct to spinal fusion." This is a therapeutic and structural purpose, not a diagnostic one.

The provided information clearly describes a surgical implant used for stabilization and fusion, which falls under the category of a medical device but not an In Vitro Diagnostic.

§ 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.
