Intended Use
Mendec Spine HV / Mendec Spine HV System is indicated for the treatment of pathological fractures of the vertebral body using a vertebroplasty or kyphoplasty procedure. Painful vertebral compression fractures may result from osteoporosis, benign lesions (hemangioma), and malignant lesions (metastatic cancers, myeloma).
Device Description
Mendec Spine HV and Mendec Spine HV System are highly viscous, radioopaque acrylic resins (PMMA based) for percutaneous vertebroplasty or kyphoplasty. These devices are made with the same raw material, but are supplied in different ways: . Mendec Spine HV is a traditional bone cement product: the liquid is contained in a vial and the powder in a sachet; these components are packaged in unitary PVC-blister with Tyvek lid, which is placed in an aluminum bag. . Mendec Spine HV System holds the powder and liquid components separately within a closed syringe-like device haa serves as a mixing chamber. The device is packaged in unitary PVC-blister with tray, sealed with Tyvek lid, which is placed in an aluminum bag. The devices are sold disposable and sterile.

No
The device description and performance studies focus on the material properties and mechanical performance of a bone cement, with no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate AI/ML.

Yes
The device is indicated for the "treatment of pathological fractures of the vertebral body using a vertebroplasty or kyphoplasty procedure," which directly addresses and treats a medical condition.

No
The device is a highly viscous, radioopaque acrylic resin used for treating pathological fractures of the vertebral body, not for diagnosing conditions.

No

The device description clearly states that the device is a "highly viscous, radioopaque acrylic resins (PMMA based)" and describes physical components like vials, sachets, syringes, and packaging. This indicates a physical medical device, not a software-only one.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for the treatment of pathological fractures of the vertebral body using a vertebroplasty or kyphoplasty procedure. This is a surgical/interventional procedure performed directly on the patient's body.
  • Device Description: The device is a bone cement (acrylic resin) used to fill vertebral fractures. It is a material implanted into the body.
  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are devices used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, tissue) taken from the human body to provide information about a person's health. This device does not perform such testing on specimens.

The device is a therapeutic device used in a surgical procedure, not a diagnostic device used for testing samples.

1-02. 510k Summary

  • . Kyphx HV-R Bone Cement (Kyphon Inc.), cleared in the 510(k) submission #K033801 and #K093828; and,
  • . Mendec Spine (Tecres), cleared in the 510(k) submission #K042415.

The intended use of Mendec Spine HV / Mendec Spine HV System is the same as the predicate devices, i.e. the treatment of pathological fractures of the vertebral body.

Mendec Spine HV and Mendec Spine HV System are equivalent in materials, mechanical and chemical-physical performances to the predicate devices. Mendec Spine HV System differs only for the configuration of the powder and liquid components that are enclosed within a ready to mix container.

Performance testing was conducted to verify the substantial equivalence to the predicate devices and their suitability to the intended use.

Tecres Mendec Spine HV devices were characterized through the following testing:

  • mechanical: static and fatigue properties, viscosity; and, י
  • chemical-physical properties: setting-time, MMA release.

The safety and effectiveness of Mendec Spine HV / Mendec Spine HV System is adequately supported by the data and testing results.

Based on the same fundamental scientific technology and on the results of the verification activities, it is concluded that Tecres Mendec Spine HV / Mendec Spine HV System is substantially equivalent to legally marketed Kyphon Inc. Kyphx HV-R and Tecres Mendec Spine.

Dear Dr. Brauer:

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.
