Intended Use
The SI Joint Fusion System is intended for fracture fixation of large bones and large bone fragments of the pelvis for conditions including sacroiliac joint disruptions and degenerative sacroiliitis.
Device Description
The SI Fusion System consists of a series of metallic (titanium), porous plasma spray coated rods, intended for surgical implant within the bone to create fixation. The system includes 4.0 mm and 7.0 mm diameter fusion rods, which range in length from 30 mm to 70 mm.

No
The summary describes a mechanical implant system and its performance through FEA, with no mention of AI/ML terms, image processing, or data-driven algorithms.

Yes
The device is intended for fracture fixation and fusion of the sacroiliac joint, which are therapeutic interventions.

No
The device description states it is a "surgical implant within the bone to create fixation," which is a treatment, not a diagnostic, function. Its intended use is "fracture fixation," further supporting its role as a therapeutic device.

No

The device description explicitly states the system consists of metallic rods intended for surgical implant, indicating it is a hardware device.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Device Description: The SI Joint Fusion System is a system of metallic rods intended for surgical implantation within the bone for fracture fixation. This is a surgical implant, not a device that analyzes biological specimens.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is for fracture fixation of large bones and large bone fragments of the pelvis, specifically for sacroiliac joint disruptions and degenerative sacroiliitis. This is a therapeutic and structural intervention, not a diagnostic test performed on a sample.

The information provided clearly describes a surgical implant used for structural support and fixation within the body, which is the opposite of an in vitro diagnostic device.

§ 888.3040 Smooth or threaded metallic bone fixation fastener.

(a)
Identification. A smooth or threaded metallic bone fixation fastener is a device intended to be implanted that consists of a stiff wire segment or rod made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum and stainless steel, and that may be smooth on the outside, fully or partially threaded, straight or U-shaped; and may be either blunt pointed, sharp pointed, or have a formed, slotted head on the end. It may be used for fixation of bone fractures, for bone reconstructions, as a guide pin for insertion of other implants, or it may be implanted through the skin so that a pulling force (traction) may be applied to the skeletal system.(b)
Classification. Class II.

Purpose of the Special 510(k) notice.

The SI Joint Fusion System is a modification to SI-Bone's cleared SI Joint Fusion System.

Intended Use

The SI Joint Fusion System is intended for fracture fixation of large bones and large bone fragments of the pelvis for conditions including sacroiliac joint disruptions and degenerative sacroiliitis.

Technological Characteristics

The SI Fusion System consists of a series of metallic (titanium), porous plasma spray coated rods, intended for surgical implant within the bone to create fixation. The system includes 4.0 mm and 7.0 mm diameter fusion rods, which range in length from 30 mm to 70 mm.

Performance Data

A Finite Element Analysis (FEA) was performed on the SI Fusion System in comparison to its predicate. Results demonstrate that the SI Fusion System is substantially equivalent with respect to fixation of the SI joint. で

Substantial Equivalence

The SI Joint Fusion System has the same intended use and similar indications, principles of operation, and technological characteristics as the predicate SI Joint Fusion System. The minor differences in the SI Joint Fusion System's technological characteristics, namely the inclusion of 4.0 mm diameter rods in the system, do not raise any new questions of safety or effectiveness. Performance data demonstrates that the SI Joint Fusion System is as safe and effective as previously cleared SI Joint Fusion System. Thus, the SI Joint Fusion System is substantially equivalent to its predicate device.

Dear Mr. Holstein:

This letter corrects our substantially equivalent letter of September 04, 2009.

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food. Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must
