Intended Use

The Reliance Cervical IBF System is indicated for intervertebral body fusion of the spine in skeletally mature patients. The device systems are designed for use with autogenous bone graft to facilitate fusion. One device may be used per intervertebral space. The Reliance Cervical IBF and Reliance Cervical IBF-HA implants are intended to be used with legally cleared supplemental spinal fixation cleared for the implanted level.

The Reliance Cervical IBF System is intended for use at one level in the cervical spine, from C3 to T1, for treatment of cervical disc disease (defined at neck pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies). The Reliance Cervical IBF System is to be used in patients who have six weeks of non-operative treatment.

Device Description

The Reliance Cervical IBF System is comprised of implant and instrument components. The Reliance Cervical IBF, the implant component, is a spacer which inserts between vertebral bodies in the anterior column of the cervical spine. The Reliance Cervical IBF spacer is either comprised of PEEK Optima HA with Tantalum markers, or from PEEK Optima LT1 with Tantalum markers. The Reliance Cervical IBF-S spacer (PEEK Optima LT1 or PEEK Optima HA) also incorporates screws to better fixate and stabilize the spine. These screws are manufactured from Titanium alloy as described by ASTM F-136. The device is intended for interbody fusion in the cervical spine and to aid in the surgical correction and stabilization of the spine.

AI/ML Overview

I am sorry, but the provided text does not contain information about acceptance criteria or a study proving device performance in the context of an AI/human reader comparative effectiveness study, standalone algorithm performance, ground truth establishment, or sample sizes for training and testing sets.

The document is a 510(k) premarket notification for the "Reliance Cervical IBF System," which is an implantable medical device for intervertebral body fusion. The FDA review letter and the 510(k) summary describe the device's classification, indications for use, substantial equivalence to a predicate device, and technological modifications (specifically, additional sizes for existing implant designs).

The critical information you requested, such as performance metrics, study design, or expert involvement, is not present in this regulatory submission for an implantable hardware device. Such information would be typical for AI-powered diagnostic or screening tools.

Dear Bret Berry:

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 (reporting of medical device-

Substantial Equivalence:

The subject Reliance Cervical IBF System is substantially equivalent to the legally marketed predicate device, the Reliance Cervical IBF System (K120396/K142269). The subject Reliance Cervical IBF System is equivalent to its predicate in terms of intended use, indications for use, design, function, principle of operation, materials, levels of attachment, size range, and use with supplemental fixation.

Device Description:

The Reliance Cervical IBF System is comprised of implant and instrument components. The Reliance Cervical IBF, the implant component, is a spacer which inserts between vertebral bodies in the anterior column of the cervical spine. The Reliance Cervical IBF spacer is either comprised of PEEK Optima HA with Tantalum markers, or from PEEK Optima LT1 with Tantalum markers. The Reliance Cervical IBF-S spacer (PEEK Optima LT1 or PEEK Optima HA) also incorporates screws to better fixate and stabilize the spine. These screws are manufactured from Titanium alloy as described by ASTM F-136. The device is intended for interbody fusion in the cervical spine and to aid in the surgical correction and stabilization of the spine.

Intended Use / Indications for Use:

The Reliance Cervical IBF System is indicated for intervertebral body fusion of the spine in skeletally mature patients.

{4}------------------------------------------------

The Reliance Cervical IBF System is intended for use at one level in the cervical spine, from C3 to T1, for treatment of cervical disc disease (defined at neck pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies). The Reliance Cervical IBF System is to be used in patients who have six weeks of non-operative treatment.

Technological Modifications:

The subject Reliance Cervical IBF system offers additional components. These include additional sizes for the Reliance IBF-VBS PEEK implant designs, specifically a 14x11mm size. Since its last clearance, Reliance has made minor modifications to the Reliance Cervical IBF System which were assessed and determined to not affect the safety and effectiveness of the device. A description of these changes have been included to provide a current and comprehensive description of the device.

There have been no changes to intended use, indications for use, function, principle of operation, materials, levels of attachment, or method of insertion.

Performance Data and Substantial Equivalence:

Based on risk analysis and FEA analysis, the 14x11mm size was determined to not present a new worst-case test condition for mechanical testing, performance testing, sterilization, cleaning or packaging. Therefore, in accordance with the design control process, additional performance data was not necessary for the changes subject of this Special 510(k).

§ 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.
