Intended Use
The STALIF C® and STALIF C-Ti™ devices are intended to be used as an intervertebral body fusion cage as a standalone system used with bone screws provided and requires no additional supplementary fixation systems. It is inserted between the vertebral bodies into the disc space at one or two contiguous levels from the C2/C3 disc space to the C7/T1 disc space for the treatment of cervical degenerative disc disease (defined as neck pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies). The device system is designed for use with autograft bone and/or allogenic bone graft composed of cancellous and/or corticocancellous bone graft, to facilitate fusion. The cervical cage is to be used in a skeletally mature patient who has had six weeks of nonoperative treatment prior to implantation of the cage.
Device Description
STALIF C® is a radiolucent intervertebral body fusion cage with unicortical cancellous bone screws. It is intended to be used as an IBF cage without supplementary fixation. The cross section profile of the STALIF C® is similar to that of the vertebral body endplate with central cavity that can be packed with autograft or allograft. STALIF C® is manufactured from either PEEK-OPTIMA® LT1 supplied by Invibio or Zeniva ZA PEEK supplied by Solvay per ASTM F2026 with titanium alloy screws (Ti6A14V, ASTM F136) and X-ray marker wires manufactured from unalloyed Tantalum (ASTM F560). The STALIF C-Ti™ is identical to this design with a titanium plasma spray coating (CPT) per ASTM F1580) on the device endplates.

No
The summary describes a physical intervertebral body fusion cage and its materials, intended use, and performance studies (literature review and biomechanical testing). There is no mention of software, algorithms, image processing, AI, ML, or any data sets related to training or testing AI/ML models.

Yes

The device is an intervertebral body fusion cage intended for the treatment of cervical degenerative disc disease, which explicitly states its purpose is therapeutic for a medical condition.

No.
The provided text describes an intervertebral body fusion cage intended for surgical implantation to facilitate fusion, not for diagnosing a condition. Its use is related to treating an existing condition, not identifying one.

No

The device description clearly states it is a physical intervertebral body fusion cage made of PEEK or PEEK with a titanium coating, along with titanium screws and tantalum marker wires. This is a hardware device, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
  • Device Description and Intended Use: The STALIF C® and STALIF C-Ti™ devices are described as intervertebral body fusion cages intended for surgical implantation into the spine to facilitate bone fusion. They are physical implants used within the body, not tests performed on samples outside the body.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any analysis of biological samples, diagnostic testing, or the use of reagents or laboratory equipment typically associated with IVDs.

Therefore, the STALIF C® and STALIF C-Ti™ devices are medical devices, specifically surgical implants, and do not fall under the category of In Vitro Diagnostics.

Summary of Technological Characteristics:

STALIF C® is a radiolucent intervertebral body fusion cage with unicortical cancellous bone screws. It is intended to be used as an IBF cage without supplementary fixation. The cross section profile of the STALIF C® is similar to that of the vertebral body endplate with central cavity that can be packed with autograft or allograft. STALIF C® is manufactured from either PEEK-OPTIMA® LT1 supplied by Invibio or Zeniva ZA PEEK supplied by Solvay per ASTM F2026 with titanium alloy screws (Ti6A14V, ASTM F136) and X-ray marker wires manufactured from unalloyed Tantalum (ASTM F560). The STALIF C-Ti™ is identical to this design with a titanium plasma spray coating (CPT) per ASTM F1580) on the device endplates.

The purpose of the subject 510(k) was to expand the indications to allow for use in multilevel procedures (i.e., two contiguous levels).

Predicate Device:

The subject STALIF C and STALIF C-Ti™ intervertebral body fusion devices are substantially equivalent to predicate STALIF C-Ti™ (K142079) with respect to indications, design, function, and materials.

Substantial Equivalence:

STALIF C®, STALIF C-Ti™ and predicate STALIF C-Ti™ devices are identical in design, material, and performance. A comprehensive clinical literature review was conducted to assess any additional safety concern for the use of this device (accounting for its integrated fixation features) at two cervical levels.

Performance Testing:

A comprehensive, clinical literature review and PearlDiver reimbursement data have been provided to investigate the risks and benefits associated with the use of the STALIF C® devices in multilevel cervical procedures. Additionally, cadaveric biomechanical testing was conducted to support substantial equivalence.

Conclusion:

The Centinel Spine STALIF C® and STALIF C-Ti™ have been modified to expand the indications to permit use in multilevel cervical procedures (i.e., one or two contiguous levels). The 510(k) demonstrates substantial equivalence to predicate devices.
