Indications for use include the temporary stabilization of the anterior spine during the evolution of cervical fusions in patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD is defined as neck pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies.), trauma (including fractures), tumors, deformity (defined as kyphosis, lordosis, or scoliosis), pseudarthrosis, and/or failed previous fusions. The intended levels for treatment range from C2 – T1.
Device Description
The Terrace™ Anterior Cervical Plate System is indicated for one through five levels of fixation and are provided in multiple sizes to accommodate a variety of patient anatomies. Screws are provided in multiple sizes to accommodate a variety of patient anatomies. Implants are manufactured from Ti-6Al-4V ELI conforming to ASTM F136 and nitinol conforming to ASTM F2063. Implants are provided non-sterile with instructions for sterilization.

No
The 510(k) summary describes a mechanical implant system for spinal fixation and does not mention any software, algorithms, or AI/ML capabilities. The performance studies are based on mechanical testing, not data analysis or image processing.

No.
The device, an Anterior Cervical Plate System, is intended for temporary stabilization and fixation of the cervical spine during fusions, which qualifies it as a surgical implant rather than a therapeutic device.

No

The device is an anterior cervical plate system intended for temporary stabilization and not for diagnosing medical conditions.

No

The device description explicitly states that the device is an "Anterior Cervical Plate System" and describes physical implants manufactured from Ti-6Al-4V ELI and nitinol. It also details performance studies involving mechanical testing of these physical components. This clearly indicates a hardware-based medical device, not a software-only one.

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, tissue) to provide information about a person's health. These tests are performed outside the body.
  • Device Description and Intended Use: The provided text clearly describes a surgical implant (an anterior cervical plate system) intended for anterior fixation of the cervical spine. This is a device that is surgically implanted inside the body to provide structural support.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Testing: There is no mention of this device being used to analyze samples or perform any kind of diagnostic test. Its function is purely mechanical and structural.

Therefore, based on the provided information, the CoreLink TERRACE™ Anterior Cervical Plate System is a surgical implant, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Summary of Performance Studies

The Terrace™ Anterior Cervical Plate System has been tested in the following test modes:

  • Static axial compression bending per ASTM F1717-14 .
  • Static torsion per ASTM F1717-14 ●
  • Dynamic axial compression bending fatigue per ASTM F1717-14 ●
  • . Corrosion testing per ASTM F2129
    The results of this non-clinical testing show that the strength of the Terrace™ Anterior Cervical Plate System is sufficient for its intended use and is substantially equivalent to legally marketed predicate devices.

§ 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.
