Intended Use
ANAX™ OCT Spinal System is intended to provide immobilization of spinal segments as an adjunct to fusion for the following acute and chronic instabilities of the craniocervical junction, the cervical spine (C1 to C7) and the thoracic spine from T1-T3: traumatic spinal fractures and/or traumatic dislocations; instability or deformity; failed previous fusions (e.g. pseudarthrosis); tumors involving the cervical spine; and degenerative disease, including intractable radiculopathy and/or myelopathy, neck and/or arm pain of discogenic origin as confirmed by radiographic studies, and degenerative disease of the facets with instability. ANAX™ OCT Spinal System is also intended to restore the integrity of the spinal column even in the absence of fusion for a limited time period in patients with advanced stage tumors involving the cervical spine in whom life expectancy is of insufficient duration to permit achievement of fusion. In order to achieve additional levels of fixation, ANAX™ OCT Spinal System may be connected to Perfix™ Spinal System and ANAXIN 5.5 Spinal System rods with the rod connectors. Transition rods with differing diameters may also be used to connect ANAX™ OCT Spinal System to Perfix™ Spinal System and ANAX™ 5.5 Spinal System.
Device Description
ANAX™ OCT Spinal System is manufactured by U&I corporation. ANAX™ OCT Spinal System is for fixation the Cervicocranium (Occiput/C2), the true subaxial region (C3/C6), and the cervicothoracic junction (C7 to T2) by one system. The ANAX™ OCT Spinal System consists of polyaxial screws, polyaxial shank screws, hooks, rods, set screws, transverse(cross) links and occipital plate. Connectors are also provided for surgical convenience. ANAX™OCT Spinal System allows surgeons to build a spinal implant construct to stabilize and promote spinal fusion. The singleuse ANAX™ OCT Spinal System components are supplied as non- sterile and are fabricated from medical grade titanium alloy (ASTM F136). All polyaxial screws have self-tapping function in the ANAX™ OCT Spinal System. Specialized instruments made from surqical instrument grade stainless steel are available for the application and removal of the ANAX™ OCT Spinal System implants.
More Information

No
The summary describes a mechanical spinal fixation system and does not mention any software, algorithms, or AI/ML capabilities.

Yes.
The device is intended to provide immobilization of spinal segments as an adjunct to fusion for treating various spinal instabilities and conditions, indicating its therapeutic purpose in supporting the healing and recovery of spinal issues.

No.
The device is described as an implant system (polyaxial screws, hooks, rods, etc.) intended to provide immobilization and stability for spinal segments, not to diagnose medical conditions.

No

The device description explicitly lists physical components such as screws, hooks, rods, and plates, indicating it is a hardware-based spinal implant system.

Based on the provided text, the ANAX™ OCT Spinal 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.
  • ANAX™ OCT Spinal System Function: The description clearly states that the ANAX™ OCT Spinal System is a spinal implant system intended to provide immobilization and stabilization of spinal segments as an adjunct to fusion. It is a physical device implanted into the body.
  • No Mention of Specimen Analysis: The text does not mention any analysis of biological specimens or providing diagnostic information based on such analysis.

Therefore, the ANAX™ OCT Spinal System falls under the category of a surgical implant or medical device, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

§ 888.3075 Posterior cervical screw system.

(a)
Identification. Posterior cervical screw systems are comprised of multiple, interconnecting components, made from a variety of materials that allow an implant system to be built from the occiput to the upper thoracic spine to fit the patient's anatomical and physiological requirements, as determined by preoperative cross-sectional imaging. Such a spinal assembly consists of a combination of bone anchors via screws (i.e., occipital screws, cervical lateral mass screws, cervical pedicle screws, C2 pars screws, C2 translaminar screws, C2 transarticular screws), longitudinal members (e.g., plates, rods, including dual diameter rods, plate/rod combinations), transverse or cross connectors, interconnection mechanisms (e.g., rod-to-rod connectors, offset connectors), and closure mechanisms (e.g., set screws, nuts). Posterior cervical screw systems are rigidly fixed devices that do not contain dynamic features, including but not limited to: non-uniform longitudinal elements or features that allow more motion or flexibility compared to rigid systems.Posterior cervical screw systems are intended to provide immobilization and stabilization of spinal segments in patients as an adjunct to fusion for acute and chronic instabilities of the cervical spine and/or craniocervical junction and/or cervicothoracic junction such as: (1) Traumatic spinal fractures and/or traumatic dislocations; (2) deformities; (3) instabilities; (4) failed previous fusions (
e.g., pseudarthrosis); (5) tumors; (6) inflammatory disorders; (7) spinal degeneration, including neck and/or arm pain of discogenic origin as confirmed by imaging studies (radiographs, CT, MRI); (8) degeneration of the facets with instability; and (9) reconstruction following decompression to treat radiculopathy and/or myelopathy. These systems are also intended to restore the integrity of the spinal column even in the absence of fusion for a limited time period in patients with advanced stage tumors involving the cervical spine in whom life expectancy is of insufficient duration to permit achievement of fusion.(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). The special controls for posterior cervical screw systems are:(1) The design characteristics of the device, including engineering schematics, must ensure that the geometry and material composition are consistent with the intended use.
(2) Nonclinical performance testing must demonstrate the mechanical function and durability of the implant.
(3) Device components must be demonstrated to be biocompatible.
(4) Validation testing must demonstrate the cleanliness and sterility of, or the ability to clean and sterilize, the device components and device-specific instruments.
(5) Labeling must include the following:
(i) A clear description of the technological features of the device including identification of device materials and the principles of device operation;
(ii) Intended use and indications for use including levels of fixation;
(iii) Device specific warnings, precautions, and contraindications that include the following statements:
(A) “Precaution: Preoperative planning prior to implantation of posterior cervical screw systems should include review of cross-sectional imaging studies (
e.g., CT and/or MRI) to evaluate the patient's cervical anatomy including the transverse foramen, neurologic structures, and the course of the vertebral arteries. If any findings would compromise the placement of these screws, other surgical methods should be considered. In addition, use of intraoperative imaging should be considered to guide and/or verify device placement, as necessary.”(B) “Precaution: Use of posterior cervical pedicle screw fixation at the C3 through C6 spinal levels requires careful consideration and planning beyond that required for lateral mass screws placed at these spinal levels, given the proximity of the vertebral arteries and neurologic structures in relation to the cervical pedicles at these levels.”
(iv) Identification of magnetic resonance (MR) compatibility status;
(v) Cleaning and sterilization instructions for devices and instruments that are provided non-sterile to the end user, and;
(vi) Detailed instructions of each surgical step, including device removal.
