Explanation: The device, the PASS LP Spinal System, is described as a pedicle screw fixation system intended for immobilization and stabilization of spinal segments as an adjunct to fusion. Its purpose is to physically support and stabilize the spine, not to diagnose medical conditions.

No

The device description explicitly states that the system consists of physical components such as pedicle screws, hooks, sacral plates, etc., manufactured from titanium alloy or cobalt-chromium molybdenum alloy. This indicates it is a hardware device, not software-only.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are devices used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information about a person's health.
  • Device Description: The description clearly states that the PASS LP Spinal System is a "pedicle screw fixation system" consisting of implants like screws, hooks, plates, and rods. These are surgically implanted devices used to stabilize the spine.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is for "immobilization of spinal segments in skeletally mature patients as an adjunct to fusion" and to treat various spinal conditions. This is a surgical intervention, not a diagnostic test performed on a specimen.

The device is a surgical implant, not a diagnostic tool that analyzes biological samples.
