Intended Use
The Longeviti Static Cranial Implants are designed and manufactured individually for each patient to correct bony voids and/or defects of the cranium.
Device Description
The Longeviti PMMA Static Cranial Implants are patient specific, implantable prosthetic cranioplasty plates intended to correct and/or restore bony voids and/or defects of the cranium. The implants are manufactured from polymethyl methacrylate materials and are designed using the patient's CT scan data. The devices are provided sterile and can be fixated to cranial bone using commercially available fasteners. Typical maximum single plate sizes do not exceed a total surface area of 411 cm2 and should have a nominal thickness of 4mm, not to exceed 5mm, to ensure physical integrity.
More Information

No
The description focuses on patient-specific design based on CT data and traditional manufacturing methods (PMMA). There is no mention of AI/ML in the device description, intended use, or performance studies.

Yes
The device is designed to correct bony voids and/or defects of the cranium, which falls under the definition of a therapeutic intervention.

No

The device is described as an implantable prosthetic, designed to correct bony voids and/or defects of the cranium, which is a therapeutic function, not diagnostic.

No

The device description explicitly states it is an "implantable prosthetic cranioplasty plate" manufactured from "polymethyl methacrylate materials," which are physical components, not software.

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.
  • Device Description and Intended Use: The Longeviti Static Cranial Implants are implantable prosthetic devices designed to correct bony voids and defects of the cranium. They are physically placed within the patient's body.
  • Lack of Specimen Analysis: The description does not mention any analysis of biological specimens. The device is designed based on CT scan data, which is imaging data, not a biological sample.

Therefore, based on the provided information, the Longeviti Static Cranial Implants are a surgical implant, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Summary of Performance Studies

Sterilization validation was conducted according to the Overkill ISO-14937 approach 3 (conservative process definition based on inactivation of reference microorganisms) product challenge device method. The peracetic acid sterilization method conducted by contract sterilizer Revox Sterilization Solutions is the same method, cycle, and sterilizer as used by the primary predicate device manufacturer Osteosymbionics. (K133082) The Longeviti PMMA Static Cranial Implant are fabricated from the same PMMA materials using the same methods as the Osteosymbionics Patient Specific Cranial Plate. Longeviti contracted a certified and approved materials testing laboratory to perform a series of mechanical strength tests to demonstrate that the material is physically and mechanically substantially equivalent to the Osteosymbionics predicate material. The mechanical tests conducted were the following: ASTM D638-03 Tensile properties of Plastics, ASTM D790-03 Flexural properties of unreinforced and reinforced plastics and electrical insulating materials, ASTM D4812-06 Unnotched cantilever beam impact. Conclusion: The Longeviti PMMA Static Cranial Implants (design, materials, properties and indication for use) are substantially equivalent to predicate devices by Osteosymbionics; (K072601) and (K133082)

Dear Ms. Duncan:

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. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820);
