Intended Use
PATRIOT® COLONIAL® ACDF Spacers are interbody fusion devices indicated at one or more levels of the cervical spine C2-T1 in patients with cervical disc disease, instability, trauma including fractures, deformity defined as kyphosis, lordosis, or scoliosis, cervical spondylotic myelopathy, spinal stenosis, and failed previous fusion. Cervical disc disease is defined as intractable radioulopathy and/or myelopathy with herniated disc and/or osteophyte formation on posterior vertebral endplates producing symptomatic nerve root and/or spinal cord compression confirmed by radiographic studies. These patients should be skeletally mature and have had at least six (6) weeks of non-operative treatment. All PATRIOT® TPS coated spacers are indicated for the same use as non-coated versions. PATRIOT® Spacers are to be filled with autograft bone and/or allogenic bone graft composed of cancellous, cortical, and/or corticocancellous bone. These devices are intended to be used with supplemental fixation, such as the ASSURE® or PROVIDENCE® Anterior Cervical Plate Systems. When used as cervical intervertebral body fusion devices, SUSTAIN® SUSTAIN® R are intended for one or more levels of the cervical spine C2-T1 in patients with cervical disc disease, instability, trauma including fractures, deformity defined as kyphosis, or scoliosis, cervical spondylotic myelopathy, spinal stenosis, and failed previous fusion. Cervical disc disease is defined as intractable radior myelopathy with herniated disc and/or osteophyte formation on posterior vertebral endplates producing symptomatic nerve root and/or spinal cord compression confirmed by radiographic studies. These patients should be skeletally mature and have had at least six (0) weeks of non-operative treatment. All SUSTAIN® TPS coated spacers are indicated for the same use as non-coated versions. SUSTAIN® Spacers are to be filled with autograft bone and/or allogenic bone graft composed of cancellous, cortical, and/or corticocancellous bone. These devices are intended to be used with supplemental fixation, such as the ASSURE®, PROVIDENCE®, or XTEND® Anterior Cervical Plate Systems.
Device Description
PATRIOT® COLONIAL® ACDF Spacers are cervical interbody fusion devices used to provide structural stability in skeletally mature individuals following discectorny. PATRIOT® Spacers are inserted through an anterior cervical approach, and are available in various heights and geometric options to fit the anatomical needs of a wide variety of patients. Protrusions on the superior and inferior surfaces of each device grip the endplates of the adjacent vertebrae to resist expulsion. SUSTAIN® Spacers, including SUSTAIN® R, are devices that may be used as cervical intervertebral fusion devices. These spacers are available in different shapes and heights to accommodate various surgical approaches and anatomical needs. Protrusions on the superior and inferior surfaces of each device grip the endplates of the adjacent vertebrae to resist expulsion.
More Information

No
The device description and performance studies focus on the mechanical properties and clinical use of physical interbody fusion spacers, with no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate AI/ML.

Yes

The device is indicated for treating various cervical spine conditions such as cervical disc disease, instability, trauma, deformity, myelopathy, spinal stenosis, and failed previous fusion, which directly address and alleviate medical conditions.

No

Explanation: The PATRIOT® COLONIAL® ACDF Spacers and SUSTAIN® Spacers are described as interbody fusion devices or cervical intervertebral body fusion devices. Their intended use is to provide structural stability and facilitate fusion in the cervical spine, rather than to diagnose medical conditions.

No

The device description clearly states that the devices are "cervical interbody fusion devices" and "spacers" which are physical implants used in surgery. The performance studies also describe mechanical testing of these physical implants.

Based on the provided text, 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 and Intended Use: The text clearly describes the PATRIOT® COLONIAL® ACDF Spacers and SUSTAIN® Spacers as implantable medical devices used for spinal fusion in the cervical spine. They are physical structures inserted into the body to provide stability and facilitate bone growth.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Activity: There is no mention of the device analyzing biological samples or providing diagnostic information about a patient's health status.

The device is a surgical implant used for treatment, not a diagnostic tool.

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

Mechanical testing static compression-shear and torsion was conducted with the additional implants in accordance with the "Guidance for Industry and FDA Staff, Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Intervertebral Fusion Device," June 12, 2007, ASTM F2077 to demonstrate substantial equivalence to the predicate spacers. Bacterial endotoxin testing (BET) was conducted in accordance with ANSI/AAMI ST72:2011.

Published clinical data for cervical interbody fusion devices is provided in this submission to support the additional indications in the cervical spine. The clinical data demonstrates that the use of anterior cervical interbody fusion devices to treat patients with cervical disc disease, cervical spondylotic myelopathy, trauma including fractures, deformity defined as kyphosis, or scoliosis, spinal stenosis or failed previous fusion does not pose new risks to patients.

Device Description:

PATRIOT® Cervical Spacers

PATRIOT® COLONIAL® ACDF Spacers are cervical interbody fusion devices used to provide structural stability in skeletally mature individuals following discectorny. PATRIOT® Spacers are inserted through an anterior cervical approach, and are available in various heights and geometric options to fit the anatomical needs of a

Bacterial endotoxin testing (BET) was conducted in accordance with ANSI/AAMI ST72:2011.

Clinical Literature:

Published clinical data for cervical interbody fusion devices is provided in this submission to support the additional indications in the cervical spine. The clinical data demonstrates that the use of anterior cervical interbody fusion devices to treat patients with cervical disc disease, cervical spondylotic myelopathy, trauma including fractures, deformity defined as kyphosis, or scoliosis, spinal stenosis or failed previous fusion does not pose new risks to patients.

Technological Characteristics:

PATRIOT® Spacers and SUSTAIN® implants have the same technological characteristics as the predicate devices including design, intended use, material composition, function, and range of sizes.

Basis of Substantial Equivalence:

PATRIOT® COLONIAL® and SUSTAIN® spacers have been found to be substantially equivalent to the predicate devices with respect to technical characteristics, performance, and intended use. The information provided within this premarket notification supports substantial equivalence of the subject spacers to the predicate devices.
