Intended Use
The SS Fenestrated Facet Screw System (FFS) is indicated for the posterior surgical treatment at L1-S1 (inclusive) spinal levels for the following: Spondylolisthesis; Spondylolysis; Pseudarthrosis or failed previous fusions which are symptomatic; Degenerative Disc Disease (DDD) as defined by back pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies and/or degenerative disease of the facets with instability. The system is intended for use with only autogenous bone graft material.
Device Description
The SS Fenestrated Facet Screw System (FFS) is a permanent implant device made from Cobalt Chrome Alloy Per ASTM 1537. It is to be implanted from the posterior approach. The device is provided in one diameter and multiple lengths to accommodate the various anatomy of the spine. The device is intended to provide mechanical support and stability to the implanted level until biologic fusion is achieved. The SS Fenestrated Facet Screw System is cannulated and fenestrated which allows it to be used as a delivery system for bone graft. The system is not to be used with bone cement.
More Information

No
The summary describes a mechanical implant device and its intended use, with no mention of AI or ML technology.

Yes.
The device is a permanent implant intended for posterior surgical treatment to provide mechanical support and stability to the spine for conditions like spondylolisthesis, spondylolysis, pseudarthrosis, and degenerative disc disease. Its purpose is to alleviate symptoms and aid in achieving biological fusion, fitting the definition of a therapeutic device.

No

The provided text explicitly states that the SS Fenestrated Facet Screw System (FFS) is a permanent implant device intended to provide mechanical support and stability. It is used for "posterior surgical treatment" and as a "delivery system for bone graft," which are therapeutic and supportive functions, not diagnostic ones.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "permanent implant device made from Cobalt Chrome Alloy" and describes its physical characteristics and intended surgical implantation, indicating it is a hardware device.

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. They are used outside the body (in vitro).
  • Device Description: The SS Fenestrated Facet Screw System is described as a "permanent implant device" made from Cobalt Chrome Alloy. It is surgically implanted inside the body to provide mechanical support and stability to the spine.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is for "posterior surgical treatment" of specific spinal conditions. This involves a surgical procedure and implantation, not laboratory testing of samples.

The information clearly indicates this is a surgical implant device, not a diagnostic test performed on samples outside the body.

Methods for Components Used in the Surgical Fixation of the Spinal Skeletal System," and ASTM F1264-03 "Standard Specification and Test Methods for Intrameduliary Fixation Devices."

The Spectrum Spine Fenestrated Facet Screw System (FFS) is substantially SAFETY & EFFECTIVENESS: equivalent to the predicate device (K073515). The devices have the same "Indications for Use", are available by prescription only, and are provided nonsterile for single-use only. The device has fenestrations to allow for the optional packing of bone graft similar to the predicate (K123932). The FFS system differs from the predicates in that the FFS is made from Cobalt Chrome alloy while the predicates are made from Titanium alloy. This differences does not negatively impact the overall safety and effectiveness of the device. Therefore it can be concluded that the FFS is both a safe and effective device and is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
