Intended Use
The RELIANCE Spinal Screw System is a pedicle screw systems intended to provide immobilization and stabilization of spinal segments in skeletally mature patients as an adjunct to fusion in the treatment of the following acute and chronic instabilities or deformities of the thoracic, lumbar, and sacral spine: degenerative spondylolisthesis with objective evidence of neurological impairment, fracture, dislocation, scoliosis, kyphosis, spinal tumor, and failed previous fusion (pseudarthrosis). The RELIANCE Spinal Screw System 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. When used posteriorly, the RELIANCE Spinal Screw System is also a hook and sacral/iliac screw fixation system of the noncervical spine indicated for, spondylolisthesis, trauma (fracture and/or dislocation), spinal stenosis, deformities (scoliosis, lordosis and/or kyphosis), tumor, and previous failed fusion (pseudarthrosis). Levels of fixation are for the thoracic, lumbar and sacral spine. The RELIANCE Spinal Screw System when used with staples and two rods as an anterior thoracic/lumbar screw fixation system, is indicated for spondylolisthesis, trauma (fracture and/or dislocation), spinal stenosis, deformities (scoliosis, lordosis and/or kyphosis), tumor, and previous failed fusion (pseudarthrosis). When used in a percutaneous, posterior approach with MIS Instrumentation, the RELIANCE Spinal Screw System components are intended for noncervical pedicle fixation and nonpedicle fixation for the following indications:spondylolisthesis; trauma (i.e., fracture or dislocation); spinal stenosis; curvatures (i.e., scoliosis, kyphosis, and/or lordosis); tumor; pseudoarthrosis; and failed previous fusion in skeletally mature patients.
Device Description
The Posterior RELIANCE Spinal Screw System consists of longitudinal rods, monoaxial screws, polyaxial screws, reduction screws, cannulated poly axial screws, cannulated reduction screws, hooks, reduction hooks, set screws, transverse connectors. The Anterior RELIANCE Spinal Screw System consists of two spinal rods, monoaxial screws, staples, and set screws. The Anterior RELIANCE staples and screws are intended to the lateral aspect of the vertebral bodies from T5 to L4, and SHOULD NOT be attached to the anterior aspect. Furthermore, only Titanium components should be used anteriorly. (See Precautions section.) The RELIANCE Spinal Screw System components are available in titanium alloy conforming to ASTM F-136 specifications as well as stainless steel conforming to ASTM F-138 specifications. Furthermore, various rods of the RELIANCE Spinal Screw System are available in Cobalt Chrome conforming to ASTM F-75 specifications. Components of the differing diameter rod systems are NOT interchangeable. The components of one material should not be used with components of another material, with the exception that the Cobalt Chrome rods may be used with titanium alloy implants. The extension tabs on the reduction screw and hook components are intended to be removed intraoperatively.
More Information

No
The summary describes a mechanical spinal screw system and does not mention any software, algorithms, or data processing capabilities that would indicate the use of AI or ML.

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 are therapeutic functions.

No

The device is described as a "pedicle screw system intended to provide immobilization and stabilization of spinal segments as an adjunct to fusion." It is a surgical implant used for treatment, not for diagnosing medical conditions.

No

The device description explicitly lists physical components such as rods, screws, hooks, and connectors, indicating it is a hardware-based medical device.

Based on the provided information, the RELIANCE Spinal Screw System is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the device is a "pedicle screw system intended to provide immobilization and stabilization of spinal segments in skeletally mature patients as an adjunct to fusion." This describes a surgical implant used to treat structural issues in the spine.
  • Device Description: The device description lists components like rods, screws, hooks, and connectors. These are all physical implants designed for surgical use.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens (like blood, tissue, or urine) outside of the body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.

Therefore, the RELIANCE Spinal Screw System is a surgical implant, not an IVD.

§ 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.
