Intended Use
The Cutting Edge Spine Interbody Fusion Device (CES) is an intervertebral body device intended for use in skeletally mature patients with Degenerative Disc Disease (DDD) of the lumbar spine with up to Grade 1 spondylolisthesis at one or two contiguous levels from L2-S1. Degenerative disc disease is defined as discogenic back pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. The CES device is intended to be used with autologous bone graft to facilitate fusion. It is to be used in patients who have had six months of non-operative treatment and is to be implanted via a direct posterior, transforaminal, retroperitoneal.or anterior approach. The CES-PLIF and CES-LIF are implanted in pairs, while the CES-TLIF, CES-CLIF and CES-RLF devices may be implanted singly or in pairs in the lumbosacral spine. The CES device is intended to be used with supplemental fixation.
Device Description
The CES device is a family of PEEK-OPTIMA spacers offered in a variety of widths and lengths. There are five main configurations: CES-PLIF, CES-TLIF, CES-CLIF and CES-RLIF. The different configurations allow for multiple surgical technique options. The CES-PLIF, CES-LIF, CES-CLIF and CES-RLIF are generally rectangular in shape while the CES-TLIF is curved. The CES implants are available in a range of sizes, as well as flat and lordotic angled implants, to accommodate variations in patients' anatomy. In addition, tantalum beads or pins are embedded in the spacers as an option to help allow for radiographic visualization. The hollow implants have holes through four sides for bone graft and an inserter instrument interface on the face. Teeth on top and bottom of the spacers improve fixation. The spacers themselves are made of biocompatible PEEK-Optima LT1 (per ASTM F2026-08) material and provided nonsterile for single-use.

No
The description focuses on the physical characteristics and intended use of a spinal implant made of PEEK material, with no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate AI/ML.

Yes
The device is described as an intervertebral body device intended to treat Degenerative Disc Disease (DDD) of the lumbar spine, which is a medical condition, through fusion with bone graft and supplemental fixation. This aligns with the definition of a therapeutic device as it is used to alleviate or cure a medical condition.

No.
This device is an intervertebral body fusion device used for treatment, not diagnosis. Its purpose is to facilitate spinal fusion in patients with Degenerative Disc Disease, rather than to diagnose conditions.

No

The device description clearly states it is a family of PEEK-OPTIMA spacers, which are physical implants, not software.

Based on the provided text, 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: The description clearly states that the device is a physical implant made of PEEK-OPTIMA material, designed to be surgically inserted into the lumbar spine.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is to facilitate fusion in patients with Degenerative Disc Disease by providing structural support and space for bone graft. This is a surgical intervention, not a diagnostic test performed on a sample.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Elements: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples, detecting biomarkers, or providing diagnostic information based on in vitro testing.

The device is a surgical implant used in the treatment of a medical condition, not a diagnostic tool.

(a)
Identification. An intervertebral body fusion device is an implanted single or multiple component spinal device made from a variety of materials, including titanium and polymers. The device is inserted into the intervertebral body space of the cervical or lumbosacral spine, and is intended for intervertebral body fusion.(b)
Classification. (1) Class II (special controls) for intervertebral body fusion devices that contain bone grafting material. The special control is the FDA guidance document entitled “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Intervertebral Body Fusion Device.” See § 888.1(e) for the availability of this guidance document.(2) Class III (premarket approval) for intervertebral body fusion devices that include any therapeutic biologic (e.g., bone morphogenic protein). Intervertebral body fusion devices that contain any therapeutic biologic require premarket approval.
