The summary describes a mechanical spinal implant system and does not mention any software, algorithms, or AI/ML capabilities.
Yes.
The device is intended to provide immobilization and stabilization of spinal segments as an adjunct to fusion in the treatment of various acute and chronic instabilities or deformities, which is a therapeutic purpose.
No
The APEX Spine System is an implantable device used for immobilization and stabilization of spinal segments, not for diagnosis. Its intended use is therapeutic, as an adjunct to fusion for various spinal conditions.
No
The device description explicitly states it is a "rod-based system" and includes physical components like "5.50mm Titanium Rod" and "Polyaxial Screw Washers," which are hardware.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
- Device Description and Intended Use: The APEX Spine System is a surgical implant designed to provide structural support and stabilization to the spine. It is used in vivo (within the body) during surgical procedures.
- Lack of Biological Sample Analysis: The description and intended use do not mention any analysis of biological samples. The device is a physical implant.
- Input Imaging Modality: The input imaging modality is "Radiographic studies," which are used for visualizing the spine, not for analyzing biological samples.
Therefore, the APEX Spine System falls under the category of a surgical implant or medical device, not an In Vitro Diagnostic.

The APEX Spine System 5.50mm Titanium Rod and Polyaxial Screw Washers is also indicated for pedicle screw fixation for the treatment of severe spondylolisthesis (Grades 3 and 4) of the L5-S1 vertebra in skeletally mature patients receiving fusion by autogenous bone graft having implants attached to the lumbar and sacral spine (L3 to sacrum) with removal of the implants after the attainment of a solid fusion.
The APEX Spine System 5.50mm Titanium Rod and Polyaxial Screw Washers is also a hook and sacral/iliac screw fixation system of the non-cervical spine indicated for degenerative disc disease (defined as discogenic back pain with degeneration of the confirmed by by history and radiographic disc studies), spondylolisthesis, trauma (fracture and/or dislocation), spinal stenosis, deformities (scoliosis, lordosis and/or kyphosis), tumor, and previous failed fusion (pseudo-arthrosis).
The APEX Spine System 5.50mm Titanium Rod and Polyaxial Screw Washers when used with pedicle screws are indicated for degenerative disc disease (defined as discogenic back pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies). Levels of fixation are for the thoracic, lumbar and sacral spine.

Device Description
The APEX Spine System 5.50mm Titanium Rod and Polyaxial Screw Washers is a rod-based system designed to interface with various spinal anatomies. The 5.50mm Rods are available in various lengths and are designed for use with the previously cleared titanium alloy components of the APEX Spine System which can accept a 5.50mm spinal rod, including monoaxial, polyaxial screws, hooks, and connectors. The polyaxial screw washers are available in 2 sizes. The smaller washer size is for use with the APEX Polyaxial Screws with shaft diameter from 4.75mm to 7.00mm and the larger washer size to be used with the APEX Polyaxial Screws with shaft diameters 7.75mm and 8.50mm.

§ 888.3050 Spinal interlaminal fixation orthosis.
(a)
Identification. A spinal interlaminal fixation orthosis is a device intended to be implanted made of an alloy, such as stainless steel, that consists of various hooks and a posteriorly placed compression or distraction rod. The device is implanted, usually across three adjacent vertebrae, to straighten and immobilize the spine to allow bone grafts to unite and fuse the vertebrae together. The device is used primarily in the treatment of scoliosis (a lateral curvature of the spine), but it also may be used in the treatment of fracture or dislocation of the spine, grades 3 and 4 of spondylolisthesis (a dislocation of the spinal column), and lower back syndrome.(b)
Classification. Class II.
