The document describes a mechanical spinal fixation system and does not mention any software, algorithms, or capabilities related to AI or ML.
Yes
The device is a pedicle screw system intended for immobilization and stabilization of spinal segments as an adjunct to fusion in the treatment of various spinal conditions, which are therapeutic interventions.
No
The Reform Pedicle Screw System is a spinal fixation system intended to provide "immobilization and stabilization of spinal segments as an adjunct to fusion," which is a treatment, not a diagnostic process. It is used in the treatment of various spinal conditions and deformities.
No
The device description explicitly lists physical components made of medical-grade materials (pedicle screws, rods, cross-connectors, etc.), indicating it is a hardware-based medical device.
No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health.
- Device Description: The Reform Pedicle Screw System is a physical implantable device consisting of screws, rods, and other components used to stabilize the spine. It is surgically implanted into the patient's body.
- Intended Use: The intended use describes the device's purpose as providing "immobilization and stabilization of spinal segments" and acting as an "adjunct to fusion." This is a structural and mechanical function within the body, not a diagnostic test performed on a sample outside the body.
The information provided clearly indicates this is a surgical implant used for spinal fixation, which falls under the category of medical devices but not specifically In Vitro Diagnostics.
N/A

§ 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
