Intended Use
The Leva® Anterior Interbody System is a stand-alone system indicated for intervertebral body fusion procedures in skeletally mature patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) of the lumbar spine at one or two contiguous levels from L2-S1. Degenerative disc disease is defined as discogenic back pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. These DDD patients may have up to Grade I spondylolisthesis or retrolisthesis at the involved level(s). The Leva® Anterior Interbody System is intended to be filled with autogenous bone graft material and used with the bone screws provided. Patients should have at least six (6) months of non-operative treatment prior to treatment with an intervertebral body fusion device.
Device Description
The Leva® Anterior Interbody System is family of stand-alone lumbar intervertebral body fusion devices fabricated from Ti-6A1-4V per ASTM F1472 and Ti-6A1-4V ELI per ASTM F136. The device includes integrated plate/screw fixation available in two configurations. In both device configurations, the surgeon inserts the bone screws through the anterior plate screw holes to provide fixation to the vertebral bodies. The device is intended to be filled with autogenous bone graft material. Both implant configurations are provided in various dimensions to accommodate the anatomical needs for a range of patients. The implants have convex endplates to conform to the bony endplates of the patient and ridges on the endplates to resist expulsion.
More Information

No
The summary describes a mechanical interbody fusion device and its materials, with no mention of AI/ML capabilities or related performance metrics.

Yes
The device is described as a "stand-alone system indicated for intervertebral body fusion procedures" for treating "degenerative disc disease (DDD) of the lumbar spine," which directly addresses a medical condition to restore function.

No

This device is an intervertebral body fusion system, indicated for surgical implantation to treat degenerative disc disease, not for diagnosing conditions.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a family of stand-alone lumbar intervertebral body fusion devices fabricated from Ti-6A1-4V and Ti-6A1-4V ELI, which are metallic materials used for physical implants. The performance studies also describe mechanical testing of these physical devices.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Leva® Anterior Interbody System Function: The Leva® Anterior Interbody System is a surgical implant designed to be placed within the human body to facilitate bone fusion in the lumbar spine. It is a therapeutic device, not a diagnostic one.
  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it's for "intervertebral body fusion procedures" and is a "stand-alone system indicated for intervertebral body fusion procedures." This describes a surgical intervention, not a diagnostic test.
  • Device Description: The description details the materials and design of a physical implant, not a device for analyzing biological samples.
  • Performance Studies: The performance studies focus on the mechanical properties and safety of the implant itself (compression, shear, push-out, subsidence, bacterial endotoxin), not on the accuracy or reliability of a diagnostic test.

The mention of "radiographic studies" in the "Input Imaging Modality" section refers to the imaging used to diagnose the patient's condition (DDD) and potentially guide the surgical procedure, but the Leva® device itself does not perform or process these images for diagnostic purposes.

§ 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.
