The summary describes a mechanical spinal fixation system and does not mention any software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate the use of AI/ML.
No
This device is an implantable system designed to promote spinal fusion and stability, which falls under the category of a medical device rather than a therapeutic device that typically delivers therapy or treatment directly (e.g., drug delivery, ultrasound therapy).
No
This device is a surgical implant system designed to promote fusion and provide stabilization in the cervico-thoracic spine, rather than to diagnose conditions.
No
The device description clearly outlines physical components made of titanium and cobalt chromium, including rods, hooks, screws, and connecting components, which are hardware.
No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
- Device Description and Intended Use: The provided text clearly describes a system of implants (rods, hooks, screws, etc.) designed to be surgically implanted into the spine to promote fusion and provide stabilization. This is an implantable medical device, not a device that analyzes samples outside the body.
The information provided focuses on the surgical application and mechanical properties of the device, which is consistent with an implantable spinal system.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
The Pioneer Posterior Cervico-Thoracic System is indicated to promote fusion of the cervico- thoracic regions of the spine (C1-T3). The intended indications are as follows:
- Degenerative Disc Disease (as defined by neck or back pain of discogenic origin ー with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies)
- Spondylolisthesis -
- -Spinal Stenosis
- Fracture/ Dislocation -
- -Deformities or Curvature
- -Tumors
- -Pseudoarthrosis
- -Revision of previous cervical and upper thoracic spine surgery
The use of the screws is limited to placement in the upper thoracic spine (TI-T3) in treating thoracic conditions only. The screws are not intended for use in the cervical spine.
The hooks and rods are also intended to provide stabilization to promote fusion following reduction of fracture/ dislocation or trauma in the cervical/ upper thoracic (C1-T3) spine.

Device Description
The Pioneer Posterior Cervico-Thoracic System consists of a variety of rods, hooks, polyaxial screws, high-angle screws, locking caps, and connecting components used to build a cervico-thoracic spinal construct.
The Pioneer Posterior Cervico-Thoracic System components are manufactured from medical grade titanium alloy and medical grade cobalt chromium. Medical grade titanium alloy and medical grade cobalt chromium may be used together.
The Pioneer Posterior Cervico-Thoracic System can be attached to FDA approved pedicle screw systems (e.g. Quantum® Spinal Fixation System or Streamline TL Spinal System) using parallel connectors.
The system also contains Class 1 manual surgical instruments and cases that are considered exempt from premarket notification.

§ 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.

Dear Ms. Downs:
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 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting (reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
