The description focuses on the material and mechanical properties of a physical implant for spinal fusion. There is no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate the use of AI/ML.
Yes
The device is used for interbody fusion in patients with degenerative disc disease, aiming to alleviate pain and facilitate fusion in the spine.
No
The device, SpineEX Sagittae® Lateral Lumber Interbody Fusion Devices, is described as an interbody fusion device intended for use in surgical procedures to facilitate fusion in patients with degenerative disc disease. Its purpose is therapeutic (fusion), not diagnostic.
No
The device description explicitly states the device is manufactured out of medical grade Ti-6A1-4V and Ti-6A-4V alloy, which are hardware materials. The intended use also describes physical interbody fusion devices.
No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
- Device Description and Intended Use: The provided information clearly describes a surgical implant (interbody fusion device) made of titanium alloy, intended to be surgically placed in the lumbar spine to facilitate bone fusion. It is a physical device used within the body, not to test samples from the body.
The information provided focuses on the device's material, intended surgical use, and mechanical performance, which are characteristic of a surgical implant, not an IVD.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The SpineEX Sagittae® Lateral Lumber Interbody Fusion Devices are indicated for interbody fusion in patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) at one or two contiguous levels from L2 to S1. DDD is defined as back pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. These DDD patients may also have up to Grade I spondylolisthesis or retrolisthesis at the involved level(s). These patients should be skeletally mature and have completed six months of non-operative treatment. Supplemental fixation is required with SpineEX Sagittae® Lateral Lumbar Interbody Fusion Devices. Additionally, the SpineEX devices are intended to be used with autogenous and/or allogenic bone graft comprised of cancellous and/or corticocancellous bone graft to facilitate fusion. These devices are intended to be used with supplemental fixation systems that have been cleared for use in the lumbosacral spine (e.g. posterior pedicle screw and rod systems, and anterior screw and rod systems). Hyperlordotic interbody devices (≥20° lordosis) must be used with at least anterior supplemental fixation.

§ 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.

Dear Mr. Wright:
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
1
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 devices or postmarketing safety reporting (21 CFR 4, Subpart B) for combination products (see https://www.fda.gov/combination-products/guidance-regulatory-information/postmarketing-safety-reportingcombination-products); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820) for devices or current good manufacturing practices (21 CFR 4, Subpart A) for combination products; and, if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR Part 807.97).

Indications for Use (Describe)
The SpineEX Sagittae® Lateral Lumber Interbody Fusion Devices are indicated for interbody fusion in patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) at one or two contiguous levels from L2 to S1. DDD is defined as back pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. These DDD patients may also have up to Grade I spondylolisthesis or retrolisthesis at the involved level(s). These patients should be skeletally mature and have completed six months of non-operative treatment. Supplemental fixation is required with SpineEX Sagittae® Lateral Lumbar Interbody Fusion Devices. Additionally, the SpineEX devices are intended to be used with autogenous and/or allogenic bone graft comprised of cancellous and/or corticocancellous bone graft to facilitate fusion. These devices are intended to be used with supplemental fixation systems that have been cleared for use in the lumbosacral spine (e.g. posterior pedicle screw and rod systems, and anterior screw and rod systems).

Minor design modifications to the SpineEX Sagittae® Lateral Lumbar Interbody Fusion Devices cleared under K181531 and K190193 have been evaluated mechanically through performance testing per ASTM F2077.
CONCLUSION
The subject modified SpineEX Sagittae® Lateral Lumbar Interbody Fusion Devices are very similar to previously cleared SpineEX Sagittae® Lateral Lumbar Interbody Fusion Devices. The subject has identical uses, indications, technological characteristics, and principles of operation as the predicate device. The modifications raise no new types of safety or efficacy questions. The overall technology characteristics lead to the conclusion that SpineEX Sagittae® Lateral Lumbar Interbody Fusion Devices is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
