Intended Use
VENUS Lumbar Intervertebral body Fusion Cage System is indicated for intervertebral body fusion procedures in skeletally mature patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) at one or two contiguous levels from L2-S1. DDD is defined as discogenic back pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by patient history and radiographic studies. These DDD patients may also have up to Grade 1 spondylolisthesis or retrolisthesis at the involved level(s). This device is to be used with autogenous bone graft. VENUS Lumbar Intervertebral body Fusion Cage System is to be used with supplemental fixation. Patients should have at least six (6) months of non-operative treatment prior to treatment with an intervertebral cage.
Device Description
The VENUS Lumbar Intervertebral body Fusion Cage System is intend to help provide support in the intervertebral body space during fusion of vertebral bodies in the lumbar spine. This system is intended to be used with supplemental fixation. The VENUS Lumbar Intervertebral body Fusion Cage System consists of implants available in various heights and lordotic configurations with an open architecture to accept packing of bone graft material. The Implants are made of PEEK-OPTIMA " LTI body with the titanium marker pins made of Titanium alloy (Ti-6AI-4V ELI). The purpose of this submission is to add a new Lumbar Interbody device: VENUS DLIF Cages and to expand the size of the devices.

No
The summary describes a physical implant (a fusion cage) and its intended use, materials, and predicate devices. There is no mention of software, algorithms, image processing, or any terms related to AI/ML.

Yes
The device is described as "VENUS Lumbar Intervertebral body Fusion Cage System" and its "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section states it is "indicated for intervertebral body fusion procedures" to treat "degenerative disc disease (DDD)". This clearly indicates its role in treating a medical condition, making it a therapeutic device.

No
The VENUS Lumbar Intervertebral body Fusion Cage System is a medical implant intended for spinal fusion procedures, providing support and facilitating bone growth rather than diagnosing a condition.

No

The device description explicitly states it consists of implants made of PEEK and titanium, which are hardware components, not software.

Based on the provided information, 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 VENUS Lumbar Intervertebral body Fusion Cage System is an implantable device designed to be surgically placed in the lumbar spine to facilitate bone fusion. It is a physical device used within the body, not a test performed on a sample outside the body.
  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes a surgical procedure for treating degenerative disc disease by fusing vertebral bodies. This is a therapeutic intervention, not a diagnostic test.

Therefore, the VENUS Lumbar Intervertebral body Fusion Cage System falls under the category of a surgical implant or medical device, not an in vitro diagnostic.

§ 888.3080 Intervertebral body fusion device.

(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.
(c)
Date premarket approval application (PMA) or notice of product development protocol (PDP) is required. Devices described in paragraph (b)(2) of this section shall have an approved PMA or a declared completed PDP in effect before being placed in commercial distribution.
