Intended Use
The REMEDY™ Cervical Plate System is intended for anterior interbody screw/plate fixation from C2 to T1. The system is indicated for use in the temporary stabilization of the anterior spine during the development of cervical spinal fusions in patients with: 1) Degenerative Disc Disease (as defined by neck pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by patient history and radiographic studies), 2) Trauma (including fractures), 3) Tumors, 4) Deformity (defined as kyphosis, lordosis, or scoliosis), 5) Pseudarthrosis, and/or 6) Failed previous fusions.
Device Description
The Remedy Cervical Plate System consists of a variety of shapes and sizes of bone plates, screws, and associated instruments. Fixation is provided by bone screws inserted into the vertebral body of the cervical spine using an anterior approach. The REMEDY Cervical Plate System implant components are made from titanium alloy described by ASTM F136.
More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a mechanical implant system and its components, with no mention of AI or ML in the intended use, device description, or performance studies.

Yes
The device is described as a system intended for temporary stabilization and fusion in patients with various spinal conditions, which falls under the definition of a therapeutic device.

No

This device is a cervical plate system intended for temporary stabilization and fixation of the anterior spine; it does not diagnose medical conditions.

No

The device description explicitly states it consists of bone plates, screws, and associated instruments made from titanium alloy, which are physical hardware components.

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, tissue) to provide information about a person's health. These tests are performed outside of the body.
  • Device Description: The REMEDY™ Cervical Plate System is an implantable device used for surgical fixation of the cervical spine. It is physically implanted into the patient's body.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is for temporary stabilization of the spine during fusion, addressing conditions like degenerative disc disease, trauma, tumors, etc. This is a surgical intervention, not a diagnostic test performed on a sample.

The information provided clearly describes a surgical implant and its intended use in treating spinal conditions, which falls under the category of a surgical device, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

§ 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.

Dear Mr. Aiken:

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. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you; however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.

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 comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21
