Intended Use
The Kestrel™ Buttress Plate System is indicated for use to stabilize the allograft at one level (L1-S1) as an aid to spinal fusion and to provide temporary stabilization and augment of a solid spinal fusion. It may be used alone or with other anterior, or anterolateral spinal systems made of compatible materials. This device is not intended for load bearing applications.
Device Description
The Innovasis Kestrel™ Buttress Plate System is a temporary implant used to prevent allograft or autograft extrusion or IBFD expulsion. The Kestrel Buttress Plate System consists of plates and bone screws. The Kestrel System is also intended to provide stabilization and augment development of a solid spinal fusion. The Kestrel Buttress Plate System fixates to the anterior portion of the lumbar vertebral body. The construct may be employed alone or with other anterior, or anterolateral spinal systems made of compatible materials.
More Information

No
The document describes a mechanical implant (plate and screws) for spinal fusion and does not mention any software, algorithms, or AI/ML capabilities. The performance studies are mechanical tests, not related to data analysis or image processing.

No
The device is described as an implant used to stabilize allografts and aid spinal fusion, which are structural and mechanical functions, not therapeutic.

No

The device description clearly states it is an "implant used to prevent allograft or autograft extrusion or IBFD expulsion" and "to provide stabilization and augment development of a solid spinal fusion." There is no mention of diagnostic functions.

No

The device description explicitly states that the system consists of "plates and bone screws," which are hardware components.

No, 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, tissue) to provide information about a person's health.
  • Device Description: The Kestrel™ Buttress Plate System is a temporary implant used to stabilize allografts and aid in spinal fusion. It is a physical device implanted into the body.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is to stabilize and augment spinal fusion, which is a surgical procedure involving the spine.

The description clearly indicates a surgical implant, not a device used for testing biological samples outside the body.

§ 888.3060 Spinal intervertebral body fixation orthosis.

(a)
Identification. A spinal intervertebral body fixation orthosis is a device intended to be implanted made of titanium. It consists of various vertebral plates that are punched into each of a series of vertebral bodies. An eye-type screw is inserted in a hole in the center of each of the plates. A braided cable is threaded through each eye-type screw. The cable is tightened with a tension device and it is fastened or crimped at each eye-type screw. The device is used to apply force to a series of vertebrae to correct “sway back,” scoliosis (lateral curvature of the spine), or other conditions.(b)
Classification. Class II.

Dear Mr. McCarty:

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.
