The summary describes a physical implant and associated instruments for spinal fusion, with no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate AI/ML. The performance studies focus on mechanical testing and finite element analysis of the physical device.
Yes
The device is an intervertebral body fusion system indicated for the treatment of degenerative disc disease, which is a therapeutic purpose.
No
The device description clearly states it is an "implant component, the Reliance Lumbar IBF device, is a spacer, which inserts between vertebral bodies in the anterior column of the lumbar spine." This indicates it is a therapeutic device, not a diagnostic one. While it is indicated for patients whose DDD is confirmed by "radios," the device itself does not perform the diagnosis.
No
The device description explicitly states it is comprised of implant and instrument components, which are physical hardware.
Based on the provided information, 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: The Reliance LUMBAR IBF System is described as an implantable spacer made of PEEK material, designed to be inserted between vertebral bodies in the spine.
- Intended Use: The intended use is for intervertebral body fusion of the spine, a surgical procedure.
- Lack of Biological Sample Testing: There is no mention of the device being used to test biological samples or provide diagnostic information based on such testing.
The device is a surgical implant used for structural support and fusion in the spine, not for in vitro diagnostic testing.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The Reliance LUMBAR 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 implants are intended to be used with legally cleared supplemental spinal fixation cleared for the implanted level.
The Reliance LUMBAR IBF System, when used as an Intervertebral Body Fusion device is also intended for use at either one level or two contiguous levels in the lumbar spine, from L2 to S1, for the treatment of degenerative disc disease (DDD) with up to Grade 1 spondylolisthesis. DDD is defined as back pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. The lumbar device is to be used in patients who have had six months of non-operative treatment.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
Non-Clinical Testing:
The RELIANCE Lumbar IBF System (K113540) has undergone Non-Clinical Testing using various ASTM Standard tests at a third party facility. The subject Reliance Lumbar IBF System has the same design, sizes, indication of use & biocompatibility as the predicate devices.
Finite Element Analysis:
Finite Element Analysis has been carried out to access the effect of new material on the structural properties of the implant. Test results show the new components are not the new worst case when compared to the approved Reliance Lumbar IBF component, 1-04-XXX, per K113540.
Finite Element Analysis (FEA) was performed on the subject components (Reliance Lumbar IBF-HA System) using Solidworks software and was compared to the test results of the worst case component (1-04-XXX) approved per K113540.
LAL Testing:
LAL testing to test the pyrogen levels have been performed & the specifications have been met.
Sterilization Validation:
Sterilization method for subject components intended to be sold sterile, was validated.
Key results: The design verification testing results were equivalent to the identified predicate device and results show that the subject implants do not create a new worst case condition for mechanical testing, performance testing, sterilization, biocompatibility, cleaning or packaging.

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.

Substantial Equivalence
The Reliance Lumbar IBF is substantially equivalent to the legally marketed, primary predicate device, Reliance Lumbar IBF System (K113540, K160463 & K173283). The subject devices have same size & configurations as the predicate devices. Subject devices differ in terms of material used and method of sterilization.
It's also substantially equivalent to the legally marketed, secondary predicate device, Globus Patriot TransContinental System (K093242, K102313).The Reliance Lumbar IBF is equivalent to these commercially available devices in terms of material, intended use, levels of attachment, size range, and use with supplemental fixation.
Device Description
The Reliance Lumbar IBF System is comprised of implant and instrument components. The implant component, the Reliance Lumbar IBF device, is a spacer, which inserts between vertebral bodies in the anterior column of the lumbar spine. The spacer is either made of PEEK OPTIMA LT1 with Tantalum markers or with PEEK OPTIMA LT1-HA with Tantalum markers.
Intended Use/Indications for Use
The Reliance Lumbar IBF System is indicated for intervertebral body fusion of the spine in skeletally mature patients.

spondylolisthesis. DDD is defined as back pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. The lumbar device is to be used in patients who have had six months of non-operative treatment.
Non-Clinical Testing
The RELIANCE Lumbar IBF System (K113540) has undergone Non-Clinical Testing using various ASTM Standard tests at a third party facility. The subject Reliance Lumbar IBF System has the same design, sizes, indication of use & biocompatibility as the predicate devices.
Finite Element Analysis has been carried out to access the effect of new material on the structural properties of the implant. Test results show the new components are not the new worst case when compared to the approved Reliance Lumbar IBF component, 1-04-XXX, per K113540.
Technological Modifications
The subject Reliance Lumbar IBF system offers additional components. These new components differ in terms of material & sterilization method. LAL testing to test the pyrogen levels have been performed & the specifications have been met.
The Reliance Lumbar IBF System components will be sold either non-sterile or sterile.
All implants under Reliance Lumbar IBF System made out of PEEK Optima LT1 or PEEK Optima LT1-HA which are intended to be sold non-sterile, will be shipped nonsterile and can be steam sterilized. For the non-sterile components, directions for steam sterilization are provided in the package insert, which accompanies the product.
All implants under Reliance Lumbar IBF System made out of PEEK Optima LT1 or PEEK Optima LT1-HA which are intended to be sold sterile, will be sterilized using Gamma Irradiation before shipping.
The subject Reliance Lumabr IBF System will have same indication of use as the currently approved Reliance Lumbar IBF System (K113540 & 160463).
Finite Element Analysis (FEA) was performed on the subject components (Reliance Lumbar IBF-HA System) using Solidworks software and was compared to the test results of the worst case component (1-04-XXX) approved per K113540.
The design verification testing results were equivalent to the identified predicate device and results show that the subject implants do not create a new worst case condition for mechanical testing, performance testing, sterilization, biocompatibility, cleaning or packaging. Sterilization method for subject components intended to be sold sterile, was validated.
