Intended Use
The Gallery™ Laminoplasty Fixation System is intended for use in the lower cervical and upper thoracic spine (C3-T3) after a laminoplasty has been performed. The Gallery™ Laminoplasty Fixation System holds or buttresses the allograft in place in order to prevent the allograft from expulsion or impinging on the spinal cord.
Device Description
The Gallery™ Laminoplasty Fixation System consists of implantable plates and screws that will act as a buttress to maintain decompression after a laminoplasty procedure.
More Information

Not Found

No
The device description and intended use clearly define a mechanical fixation system (plates and screws) for spinal surgery. There is no mention of software, image processing, AI, ML, or any data-driven decision-making components. The performance studies are mechanical tests, not algorithmic performance evaluations.

No
This device is a fixation system (plates and screws) used after a laminoplasty procedure to hold or buttress an allograft, preventing its expulsion or impingement on the spinal cord. It mechanically supports the spine rather than treating a disease or condition through a biological or pharmacological effect, which is characteristic of therapeutic devices.

No
Explanation: The device is a fixation system (plates and screws) used after a laminoplasty procedure to stabilize an allograft and prevent impingement on the spinal cord. It is a therapeutic/surgical device, not one that gathers or analyzes data to determine the nature or cause of a disease or condition.

No

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

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the device is for use in the lower cervical and upper thoracic spine after a laminoplasty procedure to hold or buttress an allograft. This is a surgical implant used in vivo (within the body).
  • Device Description: The device is described as implantable plates and screws. These are physical components used in surgery, not reagents or instruments used to test samples in vitro (outside the body).
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), detecting specific analytes, or providing diagnostic information based on laboratory testing.

IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This device does not fit that description.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

The following mechanical testing was conducted: four point bend test per ASTM F382-99, axial pullout per ASTM F543-07, and cantilever bend test as well as a detailed dimensional analysis comparing the nominal dimensions of the subject plates to its predicates. The performance data verifies that the subject device is substantially equivalent to other spinal devices currently on the market and has met all mechanical test requirements based on the worst-case construct testing and the engineering rationale.

The Gallery Laminoplasty Fixation System is substantially equivalent to its predicate devices with respect to intended use and indications, technological characteristics, and principles of operation and do not present any new issues of safety or effectiveness.

The subject device is substantially equivalent to its predicate devices when used as a spinal fixation device. The indications for use and fundamental technology of the device remain unchanged. Furthermore, mechanical testing and other supporting information sufficiently demonstrate the substantial equivalence of the subject device to the other laminoplasty fixation devices. Based on this information, the subject device does not raise any new issues regarding the safety or efficacy.

§ 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.

Substantial Equivalence:

Conclusion:

The following mechanical testing was conducted: four point bend test per ASTM F382-99, axial pullout per ASTM F543-07, and cantilever bend test as well as a detailed dimensional analysis comparing the nominal dimensions of the subject plates to its predicates. The performance data verifies that the subject device is substantially equivalent to other spinal devices currently on the market and has met all mechanical test requirements based on the worst-case construct testing and the engineering rationale.

The Gallery Laminoplasty Fixation System is substantially equivalent to its predicate devices with respect to intended use and indications, technological characteristics, and principles of operation and do not present any new issues of safety or effectiveness. Examples of predicates include the Synthes ARCH Fixation System (K032534) and Blackstone Laminoplasty Fixation System (K043338).

The subject device is substantially equivalent to its predicate devices when used as a spinal fixation device. The indications for use and fundamental technology of the device remain unchanged. Furthermore, mechanical testing and other supporting information sufficiently demonstrate the substantial equivalence of the subject device to the other laminoplasty fixation devices. Based on this information, the subject device does not raise any new issues regarding the safety or efficacy.

Dear Ms. Kelly:

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.
