Intended Use
The FloSpine Canaveral Pedicle System is intended for posterior, noncervical pedicle fixation as an adjunct to fusion in skeletally mature patients using autograft for the following indications: degenerative disc disease (DDD) (defined as back pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radies); spondylolisthesis; trauma (i.e., fracture or dislocation); spinal stenosis; curvatures (i.e., scoliosis, and/or lordosis); tumor; pseudoarthrosis; and failed previous fusion. When used for posterior non-cervical pediction in pediatric patients, the Canaveral Pedicle Screw System implants are indicated as an adjunct to fusion to treat adolescent idiopathic scoliosis. The Canaveral Pedicle Screw System for pediatric use is intended to be used with autograft. Pediatric pedicle screw fixation is limited to the posterior approach. The Canaveral Pedicle Screw System is indicated to provide the surgeon with a minimally invasive approach for posterior spine surgery.
Device Description
The FloSpine Canaveral Pedicle Screw System comprises non-sterile, single use, titanium alloy components for creating a posterior spinal implant construct. The system attaches to the spine through a component system comprising of pedicle screw assemblies for open and minimally invasive procedures, rods, hooks and set screws. The system is designed to stabilize the spine during the fusion process. The screws are available as monoaxial, uniplanar and polyaxial screws in both cannulated and non-cannulated forms. The rods are available as straight and precurved rods and are available in 2 diameters and multiple lengths. Components are made of Ti6Al4V ELI, a titanium based alloy, which complies with ASTM F136. Some rods are made from cobalt chrome which complies with ASTM F1537.
More Information

No
The 510(k) summary describes a mechanical pedicle screw system for spinal fusion and does not mention any AI or ML components or functionalities.

Yes
The device is described as a "FloSpine Canaveral Pedicle System" intended for "posterior, noncervical pedicle fixation as an adjunct to fusion" to treat various medical conditions like "degenerative disc disease (DDD)", "spondylolisthesis", "trauma", "spinal stenosis", "curvatures", "tumor", "pseudoarthrosis", and "failed previous fusion". It is designed to "stabilize the spine during the fusion process". These uses clearly fall under the definition of therapeutic intervention.

No

Explanation: The device is a pedicle screw system intended for stabilizing the spine during fusion, not for diagnosing medical conditions.

No

The device description explicitly states it comprises non-sterile, single use, titanium alloy components for creating a posterior spinal implant construct, including pedicle screw assemblies, rods, hooks, and set screws. These are physical hardware components.

Based on the provided information, the FloSpine Canaveral Pedicle System is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostic devices are 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 FloSpine Canaveral Pedicle System is described as a system of components (screws, rods, hooks, set screws) made of titanium alloy and cobalt chrome. These components are implanted into the spine to provide stabilization during fusion.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is for posterior, non-cervical pedicle fixation as an adjunct to fusion in skeletally mature and pediatric patients for various spinal conditions. This involves surgical implantation, not the analysis of bodily specimens.

The description clearly indicates a surgical implant used directly on the patient's anatomy, which is the opposite of an in vitro diagnostic device.

§ 888.3070 Thoracolumbosacral pedicle screw system.

(a)
Identification. (1) Rigid pedicle screw systems are comprised of multiple components, made from a variety of materials that allow the surgeon to build an implant system to fit the patient's anatomical and physiological requirements. Such a spinal implant assembly consists of a combination of screws, longitudinal members (e.g., plates, rods including dual diameter rods, plate/rod combinations), transverse or cross connectors, and interconnection mechanisms (e.g., rod-to-rod connectors, offset connectors).(2) Semi-rigid systems are defined as systems that contain one or more of the following features (including but not limited to): Non-uniform longitudinal elements, or features that allow more motion or flexibility compared to rigid systems.
(b)
Classification. (1) Class II (special controls), when intended to provide immobilization and stabilization of spinal segments in skeletally mature patients as an adjunct to fusion in the treatment of the following acute and chronic instabilities or deformities of the thoracic, lumbar, and sacral spine: severe spondylolisthesis (grades 3 and 4) of the L5-S1 vertebra; degenerative spondylolisthesis with objective evidence of neurologic impairment; fracture; dislocation; scoliosis; kyphosis; spinal tumor; and failed previous fusion (pseudarthrosis). These pedicle screw spinal systems must comply with the following special controls:(i) Compliance with material standards;
(ii) Compliance with mechanical testing standards;
(iii) Compliance with biocompatibility standards; and
(iv) Labeling that contains these two statements in addition to other appropriate labeling information:
“Warning: The safety and effectiveness of pedicle screw spinal systems have been established only for spinal conditions with significant mechanical instability or deformity requiring fusion with instrumentation. These conditions are significant mechanical instability or deformity of the thoracic, lumbar, and sacral spine secondary to severe spondylolisthesis (grades 3 and 4) of the L5-S1 vertebra, degenerative spondylolisthesis with objective evidence of neurologic impairment, fracture, dislocation, scoliosis, kyphosis, spinal tumor, and failed previous fusion (pseudarthrosis). The safety and effectiveness of these devices for any other conditions are unknown.”
“Precaution: The implantation of pedicle screw spinal systems should be performed only by experienced spinal surgeons with specific training in the use of this pedicle screw spinal system because this is a technically demanding procedure presenting a risk of serious injury to the patient.”
(2) Class II (special controls), when a rigid pedicle screw system is intended to provide immobilization and stabilization of spinal segments in the thoracic, lumbar, and sacral spine as an adjunct to fusion in the treatment of degenerative disc disease and spondylolisthesis other than either severe spondylolisthesis (grades 3 and 4) at L5-S1 or degenerative spondylolisthesis with objective evidence of neurologic impairment. These pedicle screw systems must comply with the following special controls:
(i) The design characteristics of the device, including engineering schematics, must ensure that the geometry and material composition are consistent with the intended use.
(ii) Non-clinical performance testing must demonstrate the mechanical function and durability of the implant.
(iii) Device components must be demonstrated to be biocompatible.
(iv) Validation testing must demonstrate the cleanliness and sterility of, or the ability to clean and sterilize, the device components and device-specific instruments.
(v) Labeling must include the following:
(A) A clear description of the technological features of the device including identification of device materials and the principles of device operation;
(B) Intended use and indications for use, including levels of fixation;
(C) Identification of magnetic resonance (MR) compatibility status;
(D) Cleaning and sterilization instructions for devices and instruments that are provided non-sterile to the end user; and
(E) Detailed instructions of each surgical step, including device removal.
(3) Class II (special controls), when a semi-rigid system is intended to provide immobilization and stabilization of spinal segments in the thoracic, lumbar, and sacral spine as an adjunct to fusion for any indication. In addition to complying with the special controls in paragraphs (b)(2)(i) through (v) of this section, these pedicle screw systems must comply with the following special controls:
(i) Demonstration that clinical performance characteristics of the device support the intended use of the product, including assessment of fusion compared to a clinically acceptable fusion rate.
(ii) Semi-rigid systems marketed prior to the effective date of this reclassification must submit an amendment to their previously cleared premarket notification (510(k)) demonstrating compliance with the special controls in paragraphs (b)(2)(i) through (v) and paragraph (b)(3)(i) of this section.
