Intended Use
When used as lumbar intervertebral body fusion devices, SUSTAIN® Spacers (including SUSTAIN® R and SUSTAIN®-IR) are intended for use in patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) at one or two contiguous levels of the lumbosacral spine (L2-S1). DDD is defined as discogenic back pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. These patients should be skeletally mature and have had at least six (6) months of nonoperative treatment. In addition, these patients may have up to Grade 1 spondylolisthesis at the involved level(s). SUSTAIN® Spacers are to be used with autograft and/or allogenic bone graft comprised of cancellous and/or corticocancellous bone graft. These devices are intended to be used with supplemental fixation.
Device Description
SUSTAIN®-IR Spacers are lumbar intervertebral fusion devices used to provide structural stability in skeletally mature individuals following discectomy and may be inserted using a posterior or transforaminal approach. The devices are available in various heights and geometric options to fit the anatomical needs of a wide variety of patients. SUSTAIN® IR Spacers are inserted into the disc space and rotated 90° to the final position. Ridges on the superior and inferior surfaces of each device grip the endplates of the adjacent vertebrae to resist expulsion. SUSTAIN®-IR Spacers have an axial hole to allow autograft and/or allogenic bone graft comprised of cancellous and/or corticocancellous bone graft to be packed inside the spacer. SUSTAIN®-IR Spacers are made from radiolucent PEEK polymer with titanium alloy or tantalum markers as specified in ASTM F136, F560, F1295, and F2026.
More Information

There are no Reference Devices listed in the provided text.

No
The description focuses on the physical characteristics, materials, and mechanical testing of a lumbar intervertebral fusion device. There is no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate the use of AI or ML.

Yes

The device is intended for use in patients with degenerative disc disease to provide structural stability and is used with bone graft, directly addressing a medical condition.

No

Explanation: The device is an intervertebral body fusion device designed for structural stability, not for diagnosing medical conditions.

No

The device description clearly indicates that the device is a physical implant made from PEEK polymer with titanium or tantalum markers, intended for surgical insertion. It is a hardware device, not software.

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 Function: The SUSTAIN® Spacers are implantable medical devices designed to provide structural support and facilitate fusion in the spine during surgery. They are physically inserted into the body.
  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states they are "lumbar intervertebral body fusion devices" for treating degenerative disc disease. This is a surgical intervention, not a diagnostic test performed on a sample outside the body.

The provided information describes a surgical implant, not a device used for laboratory testing of biological samples.

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

Mechanical testing (static and dynamic compression, static and dynamic compression-shear, and subsidence) was conducted in accordance with the "Guidance for Industry and FDA Staff, Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Intervertebral Fusion Device," June 12, 2007, ASTM F2077, and ASTM F2267 to demonstrate substantial equivalence to the predicate devices. A cadaver implantation study was also performed to demonstrate feasibility of device insertion and assess potential endplate damage.

§ 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.

A cadaver implantation study was also performed to demonstrate feasibility of device insertion and assess potential endplate damage.

Basis of Substantial Equivalence:

SUSTAIN® Additional Implants have been found to be substantially equivalent to the predicate devices with respect to technical characteristics, performance, and intended use. The information provided within this premarket notification supports substantial equivalence to the predicate devices. SUSTAIN® Additional Implants are as safe, as effective, and perform as well as or better than the predicate devices.
