Intended Use
UNiD Patient-matched PLIF cage is indicated for lumbar spinal fusion procedures in skeletally mature patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) at one or two contiguous levels form L2-S1. DDD is defined as discogenic back pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by patient history and radiographic studies. These DDD patients may also have up to Grade I Spondylolisthesis or Retrolisthesis at the involved level(s). This device is to be used with bone graff. UNiD Patient-matched PLIF cage is to be used with supplemental fixation. Patients should have at least six (6) months of non-operative treatment prior to treatment with an intervertebral cage.
Device Description
The UNiD patient-matched PLIF cage is an intervertebral lumbar device, designed to match the anatomy of an individual patient from patient imaging data (X-Ray, MRI, CT). The implant is manufactured in titanium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V ELI conforming to ASTM F3001 specifications) from additive manufacturing process.
More Information

No
The description focuses on patient-matched design based on imaging data and additive manufacturing, with no mention of AI or ML algorithms for analysis, diagnosis, or treatment planning.

Yes
The device is indicated for lumbar spinal fusion procedures in patients with degenerative disc disease, which is a treatment for a medical condition.

No

The device is an intervertebral cage used for spinal fusion procedures, not for diagnosing medical conditions.

No

The device description explicitly states the device is an "intervertebral lumbar device" manufactured from "titanium alloy" using an "additive manufacturing process," indicating it is a physical implant, not software.

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, tissue) to provide information about a person's health.
  • Device Description and Intended Use: The UNiD Patient-matched PLIF cage is an implantable device used in lumbar spinal fusion surgery. It is designed to be surgically placed within the body to aid in bone fusion.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Testing: The description focuses on the device's physical properties, manufacturing process, and its role in a surgical procedure. There is no mention of it being used to analyze biological samples or provide diagnostic information.
  • Input Imaging Modality: While it uses imaging data (X-Ray, MRI, CT), this data is used for planning and manufacturing the patient-matched implant, not for performing a diagnostic test on a biological sample.

Therefore, the UNiD Patient-matched PLIF cage falls under the category of a surgical implant or medical device used in a therapeutic procedure, not an In Vitro Diagnostic.

§ 888.3080 Intervertebral body fusion device.

(a)
Identification. An intervertebral body fusion device is an implanted single or multiple component spinal device made from a variety of materials, including titanium and polymers. The device is inserted into the intervertebral body space of the cervical or lumbosacral spine, and is intended for intervertebral body fusion.(b)
Classification. (1) Class II (special controls) for intervertebral body fusion devices that contain bone grafting material. The special control is the FDA guidance document entitled “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Intervertebral Body Fusion Device.” See § 888.1(e) for the availability of this guidance document.(2) Class III (premarket approval) for intervertebral body fusion devices that include any therapeutic biologic (e.g., bone morphogenic protein). Intervertebral body fusion devices that contain any therapeutic biologic require premarket approval.
(c)
Date premarket approval application (PMA) or notice of product development protocol (PDP) is required. Devices described in paragraph (b)(2) of this section shall have an approved PMA or a declared completed PDP in effect before being placed in commercial distribution.
