The document describes a mechanical spinal fixation system and does not mention any software, algorithms, or AI/ML capabilities.
No
The device is a spinal fixation system designed to promote fusion, effectively serving as an implant to stabilize the spine, not as a device that delivers therapy.
No
Explanation: The device is a spinal fixation system intended to promote fusion of the cervical spine and the occipito-cervico-thoracic junction. It is a surgical implant used for treatment, not for diagnosing medical conditions.
No
The device description explicitly lists hardware components such as occipital plates, screws, hooks, rods, and connectors, all manufactured from Ti-6Al-4V ELI. This indicates a physical implant system, not a software-only device.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes a surgical implant system designed to fix and stabilize the spine to promote fusion. This is a therapeutic device, not a diagnostic one.
- Device Description: The description details physical components like plates, screws, hooks, and rods, all made of materials suitable for implantation. This aligns with a surgical device.
- Lack of Diagnostic Elements: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, tissue, etc.) or providing diagnostic information about a patient's condition.
- Performance Studies: The performance studies focus on the mechanical strength and stability of the implant, which is relevant for a surgical device.
IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes. This device does not fit that description.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
Tiger® Occipital-Cervical-Thoracic Spinal Fixation System is intended to promote fusion of the cervical spine and the occipito-cervico-thoracic junction (occiput-T3). The system is intended to be used in skeletally mature patients as an adjunct to fusion using autograft and allograft for the following conditions: degenerative disc disease (DDD): defined as neck pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies; spondylolisthesis; spinal stenosis; fracture/dislocation; atlanto/axial fracture with instability; occipitocervical dislocation; revision of previous cervical spine surgery; and tumor.
The occipital bone screws are limited to occipital fixation only. Hook components are indicated for use from C1-C7. The use of polyaxial screws is limited to placement in the upper thoracic spine (T1-T3). They are not intended to be placed in the cervical spine.
The Tiger® Occipital-Cervical-Thoracic Spinal Fixation System can be connected to the Tiger® Spine System using the side by side and end to end rod to rod connectors.

§ 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.
