Not Found

No
The document describes a mechanical spinal fixation system and does not mention any AI or ML components or functionalities.

Yes
The device is described as promoting fusion and providing stabilization, which are therapeutic actions aimed at treating conditions like DDD, spondylolisthesis, spinal stenosis, fracture/dislocation, revision of previous cervical spine surgery, and tumors.

No
This device is a surgical system (implants like screws, rods, and hooks) intended to promote fusion and provide stabilization in the spine, not to diagnose medical conditions.

No

The device description explicitly states that the Sure Lok Mini Posterior Cervical/Upper Thoracic System consists of physical components (polyaxial screws, rods, and hooks) fabricated from titanium alloy. This indicates a hardware-based medical device, not a software-only one.

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 and Intended Use: The provided text describes a surgical implant system (screws, rods, and hooks) used to stabilize the spine and promote fusion. It is implanted directly into the patient's body during surgery.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of testing biological samples, analyzing bodily fluids, or providing diagnostic information based on laboratory analysis.

This device is a surgical implant used for structural support and stabilization within the body, not for in vitro diagnostic testing.

Intended Use / Indications for Use

When intended to promote fusion of the cervical spine (Cl-C7) in skeletally mature patients, the Sure Lok Mini Posterior Cervical/Upper Thoracic System is indicated for the following:

-DDD (neck pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc as confirmed by patient history and radiologic studies)

-Spondylolisthesis

-Spinal Stenosis

-Fracture/dislocation

-Revision of previous cervical spine surgery

-Tumors

The use of polyaxial screws is limited to placement in the upper thoracic spine (T1-T3) for the purposes of anchoring the construct. Polyaxial screws are not intended to be placed in the cervical spine.

The hooks and rods are also intended to provide stabilization to promote fusion following reduction of fracture/dislocation or trauma in the cervical (C1-C7) spine.

§ 888.3050 Spinal interlaminal fixation orthosis.

(a)
Identification. A spinal interlaminal fixation orthosis is a device intended to be implanted made of an alloy, such as stainless steel, that consists of various hooks and a posteriorly placed compression or distraction rod. The device is implanted, usually across three adjacent vertebrae, to straighten and immobilize the spine to allow bone grafts to unite and fuse the vertebrae together. The device is used primarily in the treatment of scoliosis (a lateral curvature of the spine), but it also may be used in the treatment of fracture or dislocation of the spine, grades 3 and 4 of spondylolisthesis (a dislocation of the spinal column), and lower back syndrome.(b)
Classification. Class II.

Dear Ms. May:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food. Drug. and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.

TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS

The Sure Lok Mini Posterior Cervical/Upper Thoracic System is made from titanium alloy material that conforms to ASTM F136. The modification to the subject system, the addition of smooth shank screws, and predicate devices have nearly identical technological characteristics and the minor differences do not raise any new issues of safety and effectiveness. Specifically the following characteristics are identical between the subject and predicates:

  • . Indications for Use
  • Materials of manufacture
  • . Structural support mechanism
