Intended Use
The VLIFT -s system is a device intended to replace a vertebral body or an entire vertebra. It is for use in the thoracolumbar spine (T1-L5) to replace a collapsed, damaged, or unstable vertebral body or vertebra resected or excised during total and partial corpectomy and vertebrectorny procedures due to tumor or trauma (i.e., fracture). For both corpectorny and vertebrectorny procedures, VLIFT -s system is intended to be used with supplemental internal fixation systems. The supplemental internal fixation systems that may be used with VLIFT -s system include, but are not limited to, Stryker Spine plate or rod systems (e.g., Xia Spinal System, Radius® Spinal System, Mantis® Percutaneous Spinal System, Thore Plating System, Trio +Spinal System). The use of bone graft with VLIFT® -s system is optional.
Device Description
The VLIFT®-s Distractible In-situ (DIS) Vertebral Body Replacement system is intended for use as an aid in spinal fusion and consists of a single, pre-assembled distractible implant. The hollow cylindrical center may be adjusted continuously via an inner concentric ring. The hollow core of the cage allows for packing bone graft. The use of bone graft with VLIFT®-s is optional. As the implant is distracted via its inner concentric ring, additional, slotted openings appear. The VLIFT®-s cages are available in various diameters and heights. Modular end caps snap into each end of the VLIFT®-s implant. Serrated teeth at the rim of the end cap attachments help to anchor the implant to the end plates of the vertebral bodies. The VLIFT®-s end caps are available in both flush and contoured designs and are offered in a variety of angles. Extension pieces are available for each diameter for the VLIFT®-s implants. Extension pieces may be used to achieve the desired height. The use of extension pieces is optional.
More Information

Not Found

No
The device description and performance studies focus on the mechanical design and structural integrity of a vertebral body replacement system, with no mention of AI or ML capabilities for image processing, diagnosis, or any other function.

No
The device is described as a vertebral body replacement system, replacing resected or excised vertebrae, which serves a structural and supportive role rather than directly curing or alleviating a disease.

No

The device description indicates that the VLIFT-s system is a vertebral body replacement system, which is a therapeutic device intended for spinal fusion, not for diagnosing conditions.

No

The device description clearly describes a physical implant (a distractible vertebral body replacement system) made of materials and with mechanical properties, not software.

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 device is a surgical implant designed to replace a vertebral body or entire vertebra in the spine. This is a therapeutic intervention, not a diagnostic test performed on samples from the human body.
  • Device Description: The description details a physical implant made of materials for surgical placement, not reagents, instruments, or software used to analyze biological samples.
  • Lack of IVD characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), detecting specific analytes, or providing diagnostic information about a patient's condition based on laboratory testing.

IVD devices are used to examine specimens from the human body to provide information for the diagnosis, prevention, or treatment of a disease or condition. This device is a surgical implant used in the body for structural support and replacement.

§ 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.
