No
The description focuses on the mechanical components of a cervical plate system and does not mention any AI/ML capabilities or related terms.
Yes
The device is intended as an adjunct to fusion for the treatment of various spinal conditions, including degenerative disc disease, trauma, tumors, and deformities, which are all therapeutic interventions.
No
The provided text describes the FortiBridge™ Anterior Cervical Plate System as an implantable device used for surgical fixation of the cervical spine, acting as an adjunct to fusion for various conditions. It does not mention any function related to diagnosing or identifying medical conditions.
No
The device description explicitly states that the FortiBridge™ System consists of implants (anterior cervical plate and screws) and instruments for implantation, which are physical hardware components.
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, or tissue) to provide information about a person's health.
- FortiBridge™ System: The description clearly states that the FortiBridge™ System is an implantable device used for anterior screw fixation of the cervical spine. It is a physical device surgically placed within the body.
Therefore, based on the provided information, the FortiBridge™ Anterior Cervical Plate System is a surgical implant, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
The FortiBridge™ Anterior Cervical Plate System is interior screw fixation of the cervical spine (C2 to T1). The system is to be used as an adjunct to fusion for the treatment of dese (defined as neck pain of discogenic origin with the degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies), spondylolisthesis, trauma (i.e., fractures or dislocations), tumors, spinal stenosis, deformity (i.e., kyphosis or scoliosis), pseudarthrosis or failed previous fusion.

§ 888.3060 Spinal intervertebral body fixation orthosis.
(a)
Identification. A spinal intervertebral body fixation orthosis is a device intended to be implanted made of titanium. It consists of various vertebral plates that are punched into each of a series of vertebral bodies. An eye-type screw is inserted in a hole in the center of each of the plates. A braided cable is threaded through each eye-type screw. The cable is tightened with a tension device and it is fastened or crimped at each eye-type screw. The device is used to apply force to a series of vertebrae to correct “sway back,” scoliosis (lateral curvature of the spine), or other conditions.(b)
Classification. Class II.

Dear Dr. Warden:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls.

| confirmed by history and radiographic studies), spondylolisthesis, trauma | |
| (i.e., fractures or dislocations), tumors, spinal stenosis, deformity (i.e., | |
| kyphosis, lordosis or scoliosis), pseudarthrosis or failed previous fusion. | |
| Materials: | FortiBridge™ implants are manufactured from titanium alloy as described by |
| ASTM F136. | |
| Primary Predicate: | FortiBridge™ System (Nanovis Spine, LLC - K143706) |
| Additional Predicate: | MaxAn® Anterior Cervical Plate System (Biomet Spine, LLC - K133518) |

| Technological | |
| Characteristics: | The FortiBridge™ System possesses the same technological |
| characteristics as its predicate system. These include: | |
| • basic design, | |
| • material, | |
| • mode of operation and, | |
| • anatomic location |
Therefore the fundamental scientific technology of the FortiBridge™ System is the same as the previously cleared FortiBridge™ System.

Conclusion:
The FortiBridge™ Anterior Cervical Plate System possesses the same
indications for use and technological characteristics as the predicate device. Therefore FortiBridge™ Anterior Cervical Plate System is substantially equivalent for its intended use.
