Intended Use
The CASCADIA lumbar implants are intervertebral body fusion devices indicated for use with autograft and/or allogenic bone graft comprised of cancellous and/or corticocancellous bone graft when used as an adjunct to fusion in patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) at one level or two contiguous levels from L2 to S1. DDD is defined as back pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. The DDD patients may also have up to Grade I spondylolisthesis or retrolisthesis at the involved level(s). These patients should be skeletally mature and have six months of nonoperative therapy. Additionally, the CASCADIA lumbar implants can be used as an adjunct to fusion in patients diagnosed with degenerative scoliosis. CASCADIA lumbar implants are intended to be used with supplemental spinal fixation systems that have been cleared for use in the lumbosacral spine. The hyperlordotic CASCADIA lumbar implants (i.e., ≥ 20°) should be used with anterior supplemental fixation (e.g., an anterior lumbar plate). The CASCADIA cervical implants are intervertebral body fusion devices indicated for use with autograft and/or allogenic bone graft comprised of cancellous and/or corticocancellous bone graft when used as an adjunct to fusion in patients with cervical disc disease (DDD) at one level or two contiguous levels from C2 to T1. These patients should be skeletally mature and have had six weeks of non-operative treatment. The CASCADIA cervical implants are also to be used with supplemental fixation; the hyperlordotic CASCADIA cervical implants (i.e., ≥ 10°) are required to be used with an anterior cervical plate as the form of supplemental fixation.
Device Description
The implants consist of hollow tube structures additively manufactured from titanium allov. The devices are available in a variety of different sizes and heights to match more closely the patient's anatomy. The purpose of the subject submission is to incorporate additional lumbar implant sizes into the system. Function: The system functions as an intervertebral body fusion device to provide support and stabilization of the lumbar segments of the spine.
More Information

No
The summary describes a passive implant device made of titanium, with no mention of software, algorithms, or any features that would suggest the use of AI or ML. The focus is on the physical properties and mechanical performance of the implant.

Yes
The device is an intervertebral body fusion device indicated for use in patients with degenerative disc disease or degenerative scoliosis to aid in spinal fusion, which is a therapeutic intervention.

No

Explanation: The device, CASCADIA lumbar and cervical implants, is described as an intervertebral body fusion device intended to provide support and stabilization of the spine. It is a therapy device, not a diagnostic one.

No

The device description explicitly states the implants consist of "hollow tube structures additively manufactured from titanium alloy," indicating a physical hardware device.

Based on the provided text, 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.
  • Device Description and Intended Use: The description clearly states that the CASCADIA implants are "intervertebral body fusion devices" intended for surgical implantation in the spine to aid in bone fusion. They are physical implants, not devices used to analyze biological samples.
  • Lack of IVD-related information: The text does not mention any analysis of biological samples, laboratory testing, or diagnostic purposes.

Therefore, the CASCADIA lumbar and cervical implants are medical devices, but they fall under the category of implantable surgical devices, not In Vitro Diagnostics.

Summary of Performance Studies

The worst case implants for the Cascadia Interbody System were previously tested and performed equally to or better than the predicate devices in static compression, dynamic compression (ASTM F2077), subsidence (ASTM F2267) and expulsion. Engineering rationales determined that the proposed implants did not represent a new worst case for mechanical testing.

§ 888.3080 Intervertebral body fusion device.

(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.
