The provided text describes a mechanical spinal fixation system and its intended use. There is no mention of software, algorithms, image processing, or any terms related to AI or ML. The performance studies listed are mechanical tests.
Yes
The devices are described as "Posterior Cervical Fixation System[s]" intended to "provide immobilization of spinal segments as an adjunct to fusion for the following acute and chronic instabilities of the cervical spine... and the thoracic spine". They are used to treat various medical conditions such as "traumatic spinal fractures and/or traumatic dislocations; instability or deformity; failed previous fusions... tumors involving the cervical spine; and degenerative disease". These uses clearly fall under the definition of a therapeutic device.
No
The device is a spinal fixation system intended to provide immobilization and restore the integrity of the spinal column, which is a therapeutic function, not a diagnostic one.
No
The device description explicitly lists multiple hardware components (screws, rods, hooks, etc.) and describes an open surgical approach, indicating it is a physical implant system, not software only.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use/Indications for Use: The intended use clearly describes a surgical implant system designed to provide mechanical support and stabilization to the cervical and thoracic spine. This is a therapeutic intervention, not a diagnostic test performed on biological samples.
- Device Description: The device is described as a "top-loading, multiple component, posterior (cervicalthoracic) spinal fixation system" consisting of screws, rods, hooks, and accessories used in an open surgical approach. This is consistent with a surgical implant.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue, etc.) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or treatment.
- Performance Studies: The performance studies listed (ASTM F 1717 and ASTM F 1798) are mechanical tests evaluating the structural integrity and performance of the implant under various loads, which is typical for surgical implants, not IVDs.
In summary, the CastleLoc-S Posterior Cervical Fixation System and LnK Posterior Cervical Fixation System are surgical implants used to stabilize the spine, not devices used for in vitro diagnostic testing.

§ 888.3075 Posterior cervical screw system.
(a)
Identification. Posterior cervical screw systems are comprised of multiple, interconnecting components, made from a variety of materials that allow an implant system to be built from the occiput to the upper thoracic spine to fit the patient's anatomical and physiological requirements, as determined by preoperative cross-sectional imaging. Such a spinal assembly consists of a combination of bone anchors via screws (i.e., occipital screws, cervical lateral mass screws, cervical pedicle screws, C2 pars screws, C2 translaminar screws, C2 transarticular screws), longitudinal members (e.g., plates, rods, including dual diameter rods, plate/rod combinations), transverse or cross connectors, interconnection mechanisms (e.g., rod-to-rod connectors, offset connectors), and closure mechanisms (e.g., set screws, nuts). Posterior cervical screw systems are rigidly fixed devices that do not contain dynamic features, including but not limited to: non-uniform longitudinal elements or features that allow more motion or flexibility compared to rigid systems.Posterior cervical screw systems are intended to provide immobilization and stabilization of spinal segments in patients as an adjunct to fusion for acute and chronic instabilities of the cervical spine and/or craniocervical junction and/or cervicothoracic junction such as: (1) Traumatic spinal fractures and/or traumatic dislocations; (2) deformities; (3) instabilities; (4) failed previous fusions (
e.g., pseudarthrosis); (5) tumors; (6) inflammatory disorders; (7) spinal degeneration, including neck and/or arm pain of discogenic origin as confirmed by imaging studies (radiographs, CT, MRI); (8) degeneration of the facets with instability; and (9) reconstruction following decompression to treat radiculopathy and/or myelopathy. These systems are also intended to restore the integrity of the spinal column even in the absence of fusion for a limited time period in patients with advanced stage tumors involving the cervical spine in whom life expectancy is of insufficient duration to permit achievement of fusion.(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). The special controls for posterior cervical screw systems are:(1) The design characteristics of the device, including engineering schematics, must ensure that the geometry and material composition are consistent with the intended use.
(2) Nonclinical performance testing must demonstrate the mechanical function and durability of the implant.
(3) Device components must be demonstrated to be biocompatible.
(4) Validation testing must demonstrate the cleanliness and sterility of, or the ability to clean and sterilize, the device components and device-specific instruments.
(5) Labeling must include the following:
(i) A clear description of the technological features of the device including identification of device materials and the principles of device operation;
(ii) Intended use and indications for use including levels of fixation;
(iii) Device specific warnings, precautions, and contraindications that include the following statements:
(A) “Precaution: Preoperative planning prior to implantation of posterior cervical screw systems should include review of cross-sectional imaging studies (
e.g., CT and/or MRI) to evaluate the patient's cervical anatomy including the transverse foramen, neurologic structures, and the course of the vertebral arteries. If any findings would compromise the placement of these screws, other surgical methods should be considered. In addition, use of intraoperative imaging should be considered to guide and/or verify device placement, as necessary.”(B) “Precaution: Use of posterior cervical pedicle screw fixation at the C3 through C6 spinal levels requires careful consideration and planning beyond that required for lateral mass screws placed at these spinal levels, given the proximity of the vertebral arteries and neurologic structures in relation to the cervical pedicles at these levels.”
(iv) Identification of magnetic resonance (MR) compatibility status;
(v) Cleaning and sterilization instructions for devices and instruments that are provided non-sterile to the end user, and;
(vi) Detailed instructions of each surgical step, including device removal.
