Yes
The device, the CD HORIZON® Spinal System, is intended for posterior, non-cervical fixation as an adjunct to fusion for a variety of spinal conditions, including degenerative disc disease, spondylolisthesis, trauma, spinal stenosis, curvatures, tumor, pseudarthrosis, and/or failed previous fusion. These indications describe the treatment of specific medical conditions, which falls under the definition of a therapeutic device.
No
Explanation: The provided text describes the CD HORIZON® Spinal System as an implantable device used for posterior, non-cervical fixation as an adjunct to fusion for a variety of spinal conditions. It mentions components like rods, hooks, screws, plates, and connectors, and details their materials and uses in stabilization and immobilization. There is no information to suggest it is used for diagnosis.
No
The device description explicitly lists various hardware components like rods, hooks, screws, plates, and connecting components made from medical-grade materials. The 510(k) is for adding additional sterile rods, multi-axial screws, and break-off set screws, which are also hardware components.
Based on the provided text, the CD HORIZON® Spinal System is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes the device as being used for posterior, non-cervical fixation as an adjunct to fusion for various spinal conditions. This involves physically implanting the device into the patient's body to provide structural support and aid in bone fusion.
- Device Description: The device is described as consisting of rods, hooks, screws, plates, staples, and connecting components. These are all physical implants designed for surgical procedures.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: An IVD device is typically used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. The CD HORIZON® Spinal System does not interact with or analyze such specimens.
Therefore, the CD HORIZON® Spinal System is a surgical implant, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
A sterilization assessment was completed for the sterile subject pre-bent rods, multi-axial screws, and break-off set screws. The reports provide adequate evidence for the validated sterilization parameters. The shelf life rationale indicates the sterile subject devices package integrity has over an eight - year period shelf life. It was determined that subject devices do not represent a new worst case. An engineering rationale was used to demonstrate substantial equivalence. As a new worst case has not been indicated and an engineering rationale was deemed adequate to prove equivalence to the predicate device, no additional mechanical testing is required.

IX. Summary of the Technological Characteristics
The subject devices are identical to the predicate in terms of intended use, overall dimensions, and fundamental scientific technology as the previously cleared predicates. Like the predicate, the subject rods are available in commercially pure titanium (CP Ti). The subject rods are offered in 5.5mm diameter and lengths ranging from 30mm - 65mm. Like its predicate rods cleared in K142847 (S.E. 10/27/2014), the subject rods are provided sterile.
The multi-axial screws and break-off set screw are available in titanium alloy like the predicate multi-axial and break-off set screws cleared in K142591 (S.E. 12/01/2014). The subject multi-axial screws are offered in diameters ranging from 4.5mm – 8.5mm and lengths ranging from 20mm – 60mm. The multi-axial screws are compatible with 5.5mm diameter titanium rods. The multi-axial screws and the break-off set screws will also be provided sterile like their predicates.
Identification of Legally Marketed Devices X.
The design features, materials, and operation principles of the subject devices are substantially equivalent to the predicate CD HORIZON® Spinal System rods (K113174 S.E. 11/21/2011). MAS (K142591 S.E. 12/01/2014). and BOSS (K142591 S.E. 12/01/2014). Additionally, the subject rods are provided sterile, identical to that of the predicate pre-bent rods found in K142847 (S.E. 10/27/2014).

XI. Discussion of the Non-Clinical Testing
A sterilization assessment was completed for the sterile subject pre-bent rods, multi-axial screws, and break-off set screws. The reports provide adequate evidence for the validated sterilization parameters. The shelf life rationale indicates the sterile subject devices package integrity has over an eight - year period shelf life. It was determined that subject devices do not represent a new worst case. An engineering rationale was used to demonstrate substantial equivalence. As a new worst case has not been indicated and an engineering rationale was deemed adequate to prove equivalence to the predicate device, no additional mechanical testing is required.
Conclusions XII.
The modifications to the CD HORIZON® Spinal System are not being made as a result of any Medical Device Reporting (MDR) or device recall, but rather to provide additional rods, multi-axial screws (MAS), and break-off set screw (BOSS) options for the surgeon. Based on the sterilization assessment, packaging rationale, and additional supporting documentation provided in this pre-market notification, the subject devices demonstrate substantial equivalence to the previously listed predicate devices.
