The device description focuses on the material, manufacturing process (additive manufacturing), and physical design of the interbody device. There is no mention of software, algorithms, or any functionality that would suggest the use of AI or ML. The performance studies are based on mechanical testing and finite element analysis, not data-driven performance metrics typically associated with AI/ML.
Yes
The device is indicated for intervertebral body fusion procedures in skeletally mature patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) to alleviate discogenic back pain, which is a therapeutic purpose.
No
This device is an intervertebral body fusion device used for surgical implantation, not for diagnosing medical conditions.
No
The device description clearly states that the device is a range of titanium intervertebral body spacers, which are physical implants. It also mentions dedicated surgical instruments. This indicates a hardware-based medical device, not software-only.
Based on the provided text, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the device is a "Lumbar Interbody Device" for "intervertebral body fusion procedures." This is a surgical implant used in the body, not a device used to test samples outside the body.
- Device Description: The description details a "range of titanium intervertebral body spacers" and mentions surgical instruments. This aligns with a surgical implant, not an IVD.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: The text does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
- Analyzing biological samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
- Detecting or measuring substances in samples
- Providing diagnostic information based on sample analysis
- Use in a laboratory setting
Therefore, the JULIET® Ti LL Lumbar Interbody Device is a surgical implant, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
JULIET® Ti LL Lumbar Interbody Device is indicated for intervertebral body fusion procedures in skeletally mature patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) at one or two contiguous levels from L2-S1. DDD is defined as discogenic back pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by patient history and radiographic studies. These DDD patients may also have up to Grade 1 spondylolisthesis or retrolisthesis at the involved level(s). These spinal implants are to be used with autogenous bone graft. JULIET® Ti LL Lumbar Interbody Device is to be used with supplemental fixation. Patients should have at least six (6) months of non-operative treatment prior to treatment with an intervertebral cage.

Device Description
Spineart Juliet® Ti LL spinal implants consist of a range of titanium intervertebral body spacers, implanted via a lateral approach, with various sizes and footprints so as to adapt different patient's conditions. The Juliet® Ti LL spinal implants are made of Titanium alloy Ti6Al4V ELI conforming to ASTM F136. The Juliet® Ti LL spinal implants are additively manufactured and present both solid and porous structures. the The subject implants Juliet® Ti LL will extend the previously cleared Juliet® Ti (PO, OL & TL) range of implants (K153621) which presents similar design features and the same manufacturing technology, i.e. additive manufacturing (SLM) and will join the previously cleared Juliet® LL range of implants (K161888; K141135) which presents similar design features and addresses the same surgical approach and utilize the same instrumentation designed purposely. The Juliet® Ti LL spinal implants are delivered sterile (gamma sterilization) and supplied with dedicated surgical instruments (reusable - provided non-sterile).

§ 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.

Dear Mr. Pennesi:
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 (OS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
