For the standard guides introduced and cleared by FDA in K132788, the holes guide the instruments used to open and prepare the pedicle to the planned entry point. After pedicle preparation, the pedicle screws will be inserted through the guiding hole into the pedicle and the vertebrae respectively. For the LP guides introduced with this 510(k), the guiding holes allow placement of the K-wire. Then, the MySpine guide is removed and the wires are used to insert cannulated implants. As an intermediate step, the surgeon can also use the cannulated awl and/or tap to better prepare the entry point in order to simplify the screw tightening. The components of the MySpine Pedicle Screw Placement Guides - LP include a Drill Guide (PA12 Medical Grade) and Vertebral Bone Models (PA12 Medical Grade). The MySpine Pedicle Screw Placement Guides – LP are single use, external communicating devices with limited (<24 hours) contact duration and are provided in sterile and nonsterile versions.
More Information

No
The summary describes surgical planning software and patient-specific guides based on CT scans, but there is no mention of AI or ML being used in the planning or guide creation process. The focus is on anatomical matching and pre-operative planning by the surgeon.

No.
This device is described as a surgical instrument and guide for pedicle screw placement, not a device intended to treat or cure a medical condition.

No

Explanation: The device is described as a surgical guide for screw placement during spinal fusion, not a device used to diagnose a medical condition. It assists in surgical procedures by providing intraoperative guidance based on pre-operative planning.

No

The device description explicitly states that the components include physical items made of PA12 Medical Grade material (Drill Guide and Vertebral Bone Models), which are patient-specific surgical instruments. While software is used for planning, the device itself includes hardware components.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that MySpine is a "thoracic and lumbar posterior guide" and "anatomical perforating guides" to assist in the "positioning of Pedicle screws" during spinal fusion surgery. This describes a surgical instrument used in vivo (within the body) to guide a procedure.
  • Device Description: The description reinforces this by detailing how the guides are used intraoperatively to guide K-wire placement and subsequent screw insertion. It mentions components like "Drill Guide" and "Vertebral Bone Models," which are physical tools used during surgery.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Purpose: There is no mention of the device being used to diagnose a disease, condition, or state of health. It does not analyze samples from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to provide diagnostic information.
  • Focus on Surgical Guidance: The entire description revolves around pre-operative planning based on imaging and the intraoperative use of physical guides to execute that plan.

IVD devices are specifically designed to perform tests on samples taken from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. MySpine's function is entirely focused on guiding a surgical procedure on the body.

§ 888.3070 Thoracolumbosacral pedicle screw system.

(a)
Identification. (1) Rigid pedicle screw systems are comprised of multiple components, made from a variety of materials that allow the surgeon to build an implant system to fit the patient's anatomical and physiological requirements. Such a spinal implant assembly consists of a combination of screws, longitudinal members (e.g., plates, rods including dual diameter rods, plate/rod combinations), transverse or cross connectors, and interconnection mechanisms (e.g., rod-to-rod connectors, offset connectors).(2) Semi-rigid systems are defined as systems that contain one or more of the following features (including but not limited to): Non-uniform longitudinal elements, or features that allow more motion or flexibility compared to rigid systems.
(b)
Classification. (1) Class II (special controls), when intended to provide immobilization and stabilization of spinal segments in skeletally mature patients as an adjunct to fusion in the treatment of the following acute and chronic instabilities or deformities of the thoracic, lumbar, and sacral spine: severe spondylolisthesis (grades 3 and 4) of the L5-S1 vertebra; degenerative spondylolisthesis with objective evidence of neurologic impairment; fracture; dislocation; scoliosis; kyphosis; spinal tumor; and failed previous fusion (pseudarthrosis). These pedicle screw spinal systems must comply with the following special controls:(i) Compliance with material standards;
(ii) Compliance with mechanical testing standards;
(iii) Compliance with biocompatibility standards; and
(iv) Labeling that contains these two statements in addition to other appropriate labeling information:
“Warning: The safety and effectiveness of pedicle screw spinal systems have been established only for spinal conditions with significant mechanical instability or deformity requiring fusion with instrumentation. These conditions are significant mechanical instability or deformity of the thoracic, lumbar, and sacral spine secondary to severe spondylolisthesis (grades 3 and 4) of the L5-S1 vertebra, degenerative spondylolisthesis with objective evidence of neurologic impairment, fracture, dislocation, scoliosis, kyphosis, spinal tumor, and failed previous fusion (pseudarthrosis). The safety and effectiveness of these devices for any other conditions are unknown.”
“Precaution: The implantation of pedicle screw spinal systems should be performed only by experienced spinal surgeons with specific training in the use of this pedicle screw spinal system because this is a technically demanding procedure presenting a risk of serious injury to the patient.”
(2) Class II (special controls), when a rigid pedicle screw system is intended to provide immobilization and stabilization of spinal segments in the thoracic, lumbar, and sacral spine as an adjunct to fusion in the treatment of degenerative disc disease and spondylolisthesis other than either severe spondylolisthesis (grades 3 and 4) at L5-S1 or degenerative spondylolisthesis with objective evidence of neurologic impairment. These pedicle screw systems must comply with the following special controls:
(i) The design characteristics of the device, including engineering schematics, must ensure that the geometry and material composition are consistent with the intended use.
(ii) Non-clinical performance testing must demonstrate the mechanical function and durability of the implant.
(iii) Device components must be demonstrated to be biocompatible.
(iv) Validation testing must demonstrate the cleanliness and sterility of, or the ability to clean and sterilize, the device components and device-specific instruments.
(v) Labeling must include the following:
(A) A clear description of the technological features of the device including identification of device materials and the principles of device operation;
