Intended Use
The CONSTRUX Mini PEEK Ti Spacer System is indicated for spinal fusion procedures at one level in the cervical spine (C2-T1), in skeletally mature patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD). DDD is defined as neck pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by patient history and radiographic studies. The CONSTRUX Mini PEEK Ti Spacer System is intended for use with autograft and supplemental fixation system (i.e. anterior cervical plate such as the Orthofix ACP or Hallmark® System). Patients must have undergone a regimen of at least six (6) weeks of non-operative treatment prior to being treated with the CONSTRUX Mini PEEK Ti Spacer System in the cervical spine.
Device Description
The CONSTRUX Mini PEEK Ti Spacer System is comprised of a variety of implants that has a PEEK core with integrated porous Titanium end plates. The CONSTRUX Mini PEEK Ti spacer is implanted in the cervical intervertebral disc space and is intended to facilitate vertebral fusion by stabilizing adjacent vertebrae, maintaining disc height, and preventing the collapsing of one vertebrate onto another. The CONSTRUX Mini PEEK Ti Spacer System is not intended to be used as a stand-alone device. The CONSTRUX Mini PEEK Ti Spacer System must be used with supplemental fixation. The CONSTRUX Mini PEEK Ti implants are provided sterile.
More Information

No
The summary describes a physical implant (a spinal spacer) and its mechanical testing. There is no mention of software, algorithms, data processing, or any terms related to AI/ML.

No.

The device is an implantable spacer system used to facilitate spinal fusion and stabilize vertebrae, not to provide therapeutic treatment itself.

No

Explanation: The CONSTRUX Mini PEEK Ti Spacer System is described as an implantable device used in spinal fusion procedures to facilitate vertebral fusion, stabilize vertebrae, and maintain disc height. Its function is to treat a condition, not to diagnose it.

No

The device description clearly states it is comprised of physical implants (PEEK core with integrated porous Titanium end plates) intended for surgical implantation. It is a hardware device, not software.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health.
  • Device Description and Intended Use: The CONSTRUX Mini PEEK Ti Spacer System is a physical implant designed to be surgically placed in the cervical spine to facilitate bone fusion. It is a therapeutic device, not a diagnostic one.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Activity: The description focuses on the mechanical function of the implant (stabilizing vertebrae, maintaining disc height) and its use in a surgical procedure. There is no mention of analyzing biological samples or providing diagnostic information.

Therefore, the CONSTRUX Mini PEEK Ti Spacer System is a medical device, specifically a spinal implant, but it does not fit the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

§ 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.
