Intended Use
Rampart™ L is an intervertebral body fusion device indicated for intervertebral body fusion at one level or two contiguous levels in the lumbar spine from L2 to S1 in patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) with up to Grade 1 spondylolisthesis at the involved level(s). DDD is defined as back pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by patient history and radiographic studies. These patients should be skeletally mature and six months of non-operative studies. Rampart™-L is designed for use with autograft as an adjunct to fusion and is intended for use with supplemental fixation systems cleared by the FDA for use in the lumbar spine.
Device Description
Rampart™-L is an intervertebral body fusion device for use with autogenous bone graft in the intervertebral disc space to stabilize spinal segments as an adjunct to fusion. The device is made of PEEK-OPTIMA LT1 with Tantalum markers and is provided in various configurations and heights, containing a hollow core to receive bone autograft. Placement is achieved with an insertion instrument that allows for manipulation of the implant in the intervertebral disc space.
More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a physical intervertebral body fusion device made of PEEK with Tantalum markers. There is no mention of software, algorithms, or any computational processing that would suggest the use of AI or ML. The performance studies focus on substantial equivalence to a predicate device based on physical characteristics and intended use, not on algorithmic performance.

Yes
The device is an intervertebral body fusion device used to stabilize spinal segments and treat degenerative disc disease, which are therapeutic interventions.

No

This device is an intervertebral body fusion device, designed to stabilize spinal segments and aid in fusion, not to diagnose medical conditions. Its use of "radiographic studies" is for confirming a pre-existing diagnosis of degenerative disc disease, not for its own diagnostic capability.

No

The device description clearly states it is a physical intervertebral body fusion device made of PEEK-OPTIMA LT1 with Tantalum markers, designed for surgical implantation. It is not software.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
  • Device Description: The Rampart™ L is an implantable medical device made of PEEK-OPTIMA LT1 with Tantalum markers. It is designed to be surgically placed in the lumbar spine to facilitate bone fusion.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is for intervertebral body fusion in patients with degenerative disc disease. This is a surgical procedure involving the implantation of a device, not a diagnostic test performed on a sample outside the body.
  • Input Imaging Modality: While radiographic studies are used to assess the patient's condition and potentially the outcome of the fusion, the device itself does not process or analyze these images for diagnostic purposes.

The Rampart™ L is a therapeutic device used in a surgical procedure, not a diagnostic test.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

New performance testing was not performed for the subject 18mm and 22mm Rampart™-L devices. In order to confirm the safety and effectiveness of the subject 18mm and 22mm Rampart™-L devices as well as their substantial equivalence to the predicate 12mm Rampart™-L device, Spineology conducted a thorough assessment which included the following activities:

  • Comparison of intended use
  • Comparison of the technological characteristics; including primary design features and materials of construction
  • Comparison of the areas and volume; including through growth area, surface contact area, and bone graft volume
  • Review of predicate performance data
  • Review of predicate risks and risk mitigation measures

Based on this assessment, Spineology confirmed that the subject 18mm and 22mm Rampart™-L devices are substantially equivalent to the predicate device, do not represent a new worst-case device configuration when compared to the predicate device, and the predicate performance data and risk mitigation measures support the safe and effective use of these devices.

(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.

Purpose of Submission A.

Currently, the FDA-cleared Rampart™-L system includes 12mm wide implantable devices. The purpose of this submission is for the expansion of the Rampart™-L product line to include 18mm and 22mm wide implantable devices. All other primary technological characteristics of the subject 18mm and 22mm devices remain unchanged from the 12mm predicate device.

B. Device Description

Rampart™-L is an intervertebral body fusion device for use with autogenous bone graft in the intervertebral disc space to stabilize spinal segments as an adjunct to fusion. The device is made of PEEK-OPTIMA LT1 with Tantalum markers and is provided in various configurations and heights, containing a hollow core to receive bone autograft. Placement is achieved with an insertion instrument that allows for manipulation of the implant in the intervertebral disc space.

D. Comparison to Predicate

When compared to the predicate device, the subject Rampart™-L device has the same or equivalent:

  • Intended Use
  • Indications for Use
  • Fundamental Scientific Technology
  • Principle of Operation
  • Device Design
  • Materials of Construction ●
  • Lengths
  • Heights

ட். Non-Clinical Testing

New performance testing was not performed for the subject 18mm and 22mm Rampart™-L devices. In order to confirm the safety and effectiveness of the subject 18mm and 22mm Rampart™-L devices as well as their substantial equivalence to the predicate 12mm Rampart™-L device, Spineology conducted a thorough assessment which included the following activities:

  • Comparison of intended use
  • Comparison of the technological characteristics; including primary design features and materials of construction
  • Comparison of the areas and volume; including through growth area, surface contact area, and bone graft volume
  • o Review of predicate performance data
  • Review of predicate risks and risk mitigation measures

Based on this assessment, Spineology confirmed that the subject 18mm and 22mm Rampart™-L devices are substantially equivalent to the predicate device, do not represent a new worst-case device configuration when compared to the predicate device, and the predicate performance data and risk mitigation measures support the safe and effective use of these devices.

F. Conclusion

Based on the same indications for use, similar technological characteristics, and comparison to the predicate device, the 18mm and 22mm Rampart™-L devices have been shown to be substantially equivalent to the legally marketed predicate device.
