Intended Use
The RELIANCE CERVICAL IBF System is indicated for intervertebral body fusion of the spine in skeletally mature patients. The device systems are designed for use with autogenous bone graft to facilitate fusion. One device may be used per intervertebral space. The Reliance Cervical IBF and Reliance Cervical IBF-HA implants are intended to be used with legally cleared supplemental spinal fixation cleared for the implanted level. The RELIANCE CERVICAL IBF System is intended for use at one level in the cervical spine, from C3 to T1, for treatment of cervical disc disease (defined at neck pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies). The RELIANCE CERVICAL IBF System is to be used in patients who have six weeks of non-operative treatment.
Device Description
The Reliance Cervical IBF System is comprised of implants and instrument components. The implant component, the Reliance Cervical IBF device, is a spacer, which inserts between vertebral bodies in the anterior column of the cervical spine. The spacer may be made of PEEK Optima LT1 or PEEK Optima LT1-HA with Tantalum markers. The Reliance Cervical IBF System may also include bone screws to secure the device to the vertebral body.
More Information

Not Found

No
The document describes a physical implant and surgical instruments, with no mention of software, algorithms, or AI/ML terms.

Yes
The device is indicated for intervertebral body fusion of the spine for treatment of cervical disc disease, which involves addressing a medical condition (neck pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc).

No

Explanation: The device described is an intervertebral body fusion system (a spacer and potentially bone screws) intended for surgical implantation to facilitate fusion in the spine. It is a therapeutic device, not a diagnostic one. Its purpose is to treat cervical disc disease by promoting fusion, not to diagnose it.

No

The device description explicitly states that the system is comprised of implants and instrument components, which are physical hardware.

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 for spinal fusion, not a test performed on biological samples to diagnose a condition.
  • Device Description: The device is described as a "spacer" made of PEEK material, designed to be surgically inserted into the spine. This is a physical implant, not a diagnostic reagent or instrument.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.), detecting biomarkers, or providing diagnostic information about a patient's health status.
  • Performance Studies: The performance studies focus on mechanical testing and an animal fusion study, which are relevant to the structural integrity and biological integration of an implant, not the analytical or clinical performance of a diagnostic test.

In summary, the RELIANCE CERVICAL IBF System is a surgical implant used for spinal fusion, which falls under the category of medical devices, but not specifically In Vitro Diagnostics.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

Mechanical testing was performed on the Reliance Cervical IBF System following ASTM F-2077, ASTM F-2267, and ASTM Draft F-04.25.02.02. The mechanical testing included static compression, dynamic compression, static torsion, dynamic torsion, expulsion, and subsidence testing. Additionally, and ovine fusion study was performed. The Reliance Cervical IBF System was found to be substantially equivalent to itself. Additionally, the Reliance Cervical IBF System is substantially equivalent to itself in terms of sterilization and biocompatibility.

§ 888.3080 Intervertebral body fusion device.

(a)
Identification. An intervertebral body fusion device is an implanted single or multiple component spinal device made from a variety of materials, including titanium and polymers. The device is inserted into the intervertebral body space of the cervical or lumbosacral spine, and is intended for intervertebral body fusion.(b)
Classification. (1) Class II (special controls) for intervertebral body fusion devices that contain bone grafting material. The special control is the FDA guidance document entitled “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Intervertebral Body Fusion Device.” See § 888.1(e) for the availability of this guidance document.(2) Class III (premarket approval) for intervertebral body fusion devices that include any therapeutic biologic (e.g., bone morphogenic protein). Intervertebral body fusion devices that contain any therapeutic biologic require premarket approval.
(c)
Date premarket approval application (PMA) or notice of product development protocol (PDP) is required. Devices described in paragraph (b)(2) of this section shall have an approved PMA or a declared completed PDP in effect before being placed in commercial distribution.
