In the posterolateral spine Ceracell® Ortho Foam is to be mixed with autograft bone. The device resorbs and is replaced with bone during the healing process.
Device Description
Ceracell® Ortho Foam is a porous composite material consisting of resorbable ß-tricalcium phosphate ceramic granules (85% by weight of the final device) in a porcine collagen scaffold (Type I and Type III, 15% by weight of the final device). Ceracell® Ortho Foam is provided as Ceracell® Ortho Flexible Foam Strip and Ceracell® Ortho Moldable Foam. Ceracell® Ortho Flexible Foam Strip is provided in various sizes from 2.5 cc to 25 cc. Ceracelle Ortho Moldable Foam is provided in various sizes from 1.2 cc to 25 cc.
More Information

No
The device description and performance studies focus on the material properties and biological integration of a bone void filler, with no mention of AI or ML technologies.

Yes
The device is intended to fill bony voids or gaps and resorb, being replaced with bone during the healing process, which are therapeutic actions.

No.
The device is described as a material intended to fill bony voids or gaps in the skeletal system, which functions as a resorbable scaffold for bone regeneration, not for diagnosing medical conditions.

No

The device description clearly states it is a porous composite material consisting of ceramic granules and a collagen scaffold, which are physical components, not software.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the device is "intended to fill bony voids or gaps of the skeletal system (posterolateral spine)." This describes a surgical implant used directly within the body for structural support and bone regeneration.
  • Device Description: The description details a "porous composite material consisting of resorbable ß-tricalcium phosphate ceramic granules... in a porcine collagen scaffold." This is a description of a physical material intended for implantation, not a reagent or instrument used to test samples outside the body.
  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics (IVDs) 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. This device does not perform any such tests.

The device is a bone graft substitute intended for surgical implantation.

The primary predicate device is K140375 for substantial equivalence in the animal model performance testing. The reference predicate devices K160566 and K103709 are for substantial equivalence in terms of the subject device material composition.

The subject device and the primary predicate device K140375 have the same intended use, the same product classification and product code (MQV), and have similar Indications for Use statements. The

6

subject device and the primary predicate devices are bone void fillers that are intended for bony voids or gaps that are not intrinsic to the bony structure. The subject device and primary predicate device are indicated for use in the posterolateral spine with autograft bone (extender). Although the subject device and the primary predicate have slightly different Indications for Use language, this difference in language does not change the intended use as a bone void filler in the posterolateral spine.

The subject device and the primary predicate device K140375 each incorporate calcium phosphate materials within a collagen scaffold. The subject device scaffold is Type I and Type III porcine collagen, and the primary predicate K140375 scaffold is Type I bovine collagen. The subject device is made of the identical collagen as the reference predicate device K160566, and the subject device is made of identical calcium phosphate component as the reference predicate device K103709. The subject device and all predicate devices are provided sterile for single-patient, single-use in similar ranges of graft volumes.

The radiographic, histologic, and histomorphometric performance of the subject device were compared to that of the primary predicate device K140375 in a rabbit posterolateral fusion model. The results of the study demonstrated that the performance of the subject device was equivalent to that of the primary predicate device K140375.

CONCLUSION

The subject device and the predicate devices have the same intended use, have similar technological characteristics, and are made of similar materials. The subject and predicate devices are packaged in similar materials and are sterilized using similar methods. The data included in this submission demonstrate substantial equivalence to the predicate devices listed above.
