Intended Use
The Mecta-C Stand Alone is a stand-alone anterior cervical interbody fusion device indicated for use in skeletally mature patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) with accompanying radicular symptoms at one level from C2-T1. DDD is defined as discogenic pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. These patients should have had six weeks of non-operative treatment. The interior of the Mecta-C Stand Alone should be packed with autogenous bone graft and implanted via an anterior approach.
Device Description
The Mecta-C Stand Alone implants are a line extension to Medacta's anterior cervical discectomy and fusion devices' portfolio. The Mecta-C Stand Alone implants are composed of Mecta-C Stand Alone PEEK and Mecta-C Stand Alone TiPEEK implants. The Mecta-C Stand Alone implants are intended to be used during cervical interbody fusion surgeries. The implants are characterized by different sizes of the PEEK body, in combination with different plate designs and screws. The PEEK body is available uncoated as well as with a Titanium coating. The Mecta-C Stand Alone implants are composed of cages, plates, locking screws, lag screws, and antibackout screws. The cages are available in various widths, heights, and lengths, with a fixed 7° of lordosis. The cages are to be inserted between two (2) cervical vertebral bodies to provide support and correction during cervical interbody fusion surgeries. The hollow geometry of the implants allows the cages to be packed with bone graft. The plates are designed with different shapes to promote a specific approach or to simplify the procedure in a specific area. The plates are assembled in front of the cage and allow for mounting of a certain number of screws. The screws are placed through the plate and cage in order to fix the device to the vertebral bodies. The Mecta-C Stand Alone implants are designed for long-term implantation inside the human body. The implants are provided sterile in single-use packages.
More Information

No
The description focuses on the mechanical design and materials of a physical implant, with no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate AI/ML.

Yes
The device is used to treat degenerative disc disease and accompanying radicular symptoms by achieving anterior cervical interbody fusion, which is a therapeutic purpose.

No

This device is an anterior cervical interbody fusion device designed for implantation to provide support and correction during cervical interbody fusion surgeries, not for diagnosing conditions.

No

The device description clearly states that the device is composed of physical implants (cages, plates, screws) made of PEEK and Titanium, intended for surgical implantation. This is a hardware device, 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 devices used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information about a person's health. This testing is done outside of the body (in vitro).
  • Device Description: The Mecta-C Stand Alone is an implantable device designed to be surgically placed inside the human body to provide structural support during cervical interbody fusion. It is a physical implant, not a tool for analyzing biological samples.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is to treat degenerative disc disease by providing support and correction during surgery. This is a therapeutic intervention, not a diagnostic test.

The description clearly indicates this is a surgical implant for long-term use within the body, which falls outside the scope of In Vitro Diagnostics.

Dear Mr. Lussier:

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. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database located at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. 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) for

Device Description IV.

The Mecta-C Stand Alone implants are a line extension to Medacta's anterior cervical discectomy and fusion devices' portfolio. The Mecta-C Stand Alone implants are composed of Mecta-C Stand Alone PEEK and Mecta-C Stand Alone TiPEEK implants. The Mecta-C Stand Alone implants are intended to be used during cervical interbody fusion surgeries. The implants are characterized by different sizes of the PEEK body, in combination with different plate designs and screws. The PEEK body is available uncoated as well as with a Titanium coating.

The Mecta-C Stand Alone implants are composed of cages, plates, locking screws, lag screws, and antibackout screws.

The cages are available in various widths, heights, and lengths, with a fixed 7° of lordosis. The cages are to be inserted between two (2) cervical vertebral bodies to provide support and correction during cervical interbody fusion surgeries. The hollow geometry of the implants allows the cages to be packed with bone graft.

The plates are designed with different shapes to promote a specific approach or to simplify the procedure in a specific area. The plates are assembled in front of the cage and allow for mounting of a certain number of screws. The screws are placed through the plate and cage in order to fix the device to the vertebral bodies.

The Mecta-C Stand Alone implants are designed for long-term implantation inside the human body. The implants are provided sterile in single-use packages.

V. Indications for Use

The Mecta-C Stand Alone is a stand-alone anterior cervical interbody fusion device indicated for use in skeletally mature patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) with accompanying radicular symptoms at one level from C2-T1. DDD is defined as discogenic pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. These patients should have had six weeks of nonoperative treatment. The interior of the spacer component of the Mecta-C Stand Alone should be packed with autogenous bone graft and implanted via an anterior approach.
