Intended Use
The SECULOK™ ACP System is intended for anterior vertebral screw fixation of the cervical spine at levels C2-T1. The system is indicated for temporary stabilization of the anterior spine during the development of cervical spine fusions in patients with the following indications: O Degenerative disc disease (as defined by neck pain of discogenic origin with degeneration disc confirmed by patient history and radiographic studies); - □ Spondylolisthesis - □ Trauma (including fractures, dislocation) - Spinal stenosis - □ Tumors - □ Deformity (defined as scoliosis, kyphosis, or lordosis) - □ Pseudoarthrosis - □ Failed previous fusion
Device Description
The SECULOK™ ACP System consists of a variety of shapes and sizes of bone plates, screws and associated instruments. Fixation is provided by bone screws inserted into the vertebral body of the cervical spine using an anterior approach. All implant components are made from titanium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V ELI) in accordance with ASTM F136. All implants are single use only.
More Information

No
The device description and performance studies focus on the mechanical properties and structural integrity of the bone plates and screws, with no mention of AI/ML, image processing, or data-driven analysis.

Yes
The device is intended for temporary stabilization of the anterior spine during the development of cervical spine fusions for various medical conditions, indicating a direct role in treating or managing a disease or condition.

No

This device is an anterior vertebral screw fixation system intended for temporary stabilization of the spine during fusion, not for diagnosis.

No

The device description explicitly states that the SECULOK™ ACP System consists of bone plates, screws, and associated instruments, all made from titanium alloy. This indicates a hardware-based medical device, not a software-only one.

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 SECULOK™ ACP System is for "anterior vertebral screw fixation of the cervical spine" and "temporary stabilization of the anterior spine during the development of cervical spine fusions." This describes a surgical implant used in vivo (within the body) for structural support.
  • Device Description: The device is described as "bone plates, screws and associated instruments" made from titanium alloy, which are typical components of surgical implants.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: An IVD is a medical device used in vitro (outside the body) to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. The SECULOK™ ACP System does not perform any such function.
  • Performance Studies: The performance studies described are bench tests evaluating the mechanical properties of the implant (static compression bending, static torsion, compression bending fatigue), which are relevant for surgical implants, not IVDs.

In summary, the SECULOK™ ACP System is a surgical implant designed for internal fixation of the cervical spine, 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.
