Intended Use
The SpineNet SSP System is intended for anterior screw fixation of the cervical spine (C2 to T1). The system is to be used as an adjunct to fusion for the treatment of the following indications: degenerative disc disease (defined as neck pain of discogenic origin with the degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies), spondylolisthesis, trauma (i.e., fractures or dislocations), spinal stenosis, deformity (i.e., kyphosis, lordosis or scoliosis), tumors, pseudarthrosis or failed previous fusion.
Device Description
The SpineNet SSP System is an anterior cervical plate and screw system which includes fixed and variable self-tapping screws and one- through four level plates. The implants are available in a variety of sizes to accommodate the individual anatomic and clinical circumstances of each patient.
More Information

No
The device description and performance studies focus on mechanical properties and equivalence to predicate devices, with no mention of AI or ML.

Yes
The device is described as an anterior screw fixation system for the cervical spine, used as an adjunct to fusion for treating various conditions like degenerative disc disease, trauma, and tumors. These are all therapeutic actions.

No
The device, "SpineNet SSP System," is described as an anterior cervical plate and screw system intended for fixation of the cervical spine. Its purpose is to physically stabilize the spine as an adjunct to fusion for various conditions, not to identify, monitor, or assess a medical condition.

No

The device description explicitly states it is an anterior cervical plate and screw system, which are physical implants, not software.

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.
  • SpineNet SSP System Description: The provided text clearly describes the SpineNet SSP System as an anterior cervical plate and screw system. These are implantable medical devices used in surgical procedures to stabilize the spine.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is for anterior screw fixation of the cervical spine as an adjunct to fusion for treating various spinal conditions. This is a surgical intervention, not a diagnostic test performed on samples.

The description focuses on the physical components of the device (plates and screws) and their mechanical performance, which is typical for implantable surgical devices, not IVDs.

§ 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 Karen Warden:

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

performed according to ASTM F1717 and included static and dynamic
compression and static torsion.
The mechanical test results demonstrate that the SpineNet SSP System
device performance is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.
Technological
Characteristics:The SpineNet SSP System possesses technological characteristics similar
