The device is a spinal system intended for posterior, non-cervical fixation and immobilization of spinal segments, acting as an adjunct to fusion. It is a treatment device, not a diagnostic one.

No

The device description explicitly states it is a "thoracolumbosacral pedicle screw system containing metallic implants" and lists various hardware components like screws, hooks, and rods. This indicates it is a physical medical device, not software-only.

Based on the provided text, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
  • Device description: The LineSider™ Spinal System is described as a system of metallic implants (screws, hooks, rods, etc.) intended for surgical implantation to provide immobilization of spinal segments.
  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it's for posterior, non-cervical fixation in skeletally mature and pediatric patients as an adjunct to fusion for various spinal conditions. This is a surgical intervention, not a diagnostic test performed on a sample.

The device is a surgical implant used in vivo (within the body), not a diagnostic test performed in vitro (outside the body).

(a)
Identification. (1) Rigid pedicle screw systems are comprised of multiple components, made from a variety of materials that allow the surgeon to build an implant system to fit the patient's anatomical and physiological requirements. Such a spinal implant assembly consists of a combination of screws, longitudinal members (e.g., plates, rods including dual diameter rods, plate/rod combinations), transverse or cross connectors, and interconnection mechanisms (e.g., rod-to-rod connectors, offset connectors).(2) Semi-rigid systems are defined as systems that contain one or more of the following features (including but not limited to): Non-uniform longitudinal elements, or features that allow more motion or flexibility compared to rigid systems.
(b)
Classification. (1) Class II (special controls), when intended to provide immobilization and stabilization of spinal segments in skeletally mature patients as an adjunct to fusion in the treatment of the following acute and chronic instabilities or deformities of the thoracic, lumbar, and sacral spine: severe spondylolisthesis (grades 3 and 4) of the L5-S1 vertebra; degenerative spondylolisthesis with objective evidence of neurologic impairment; fracture; dislocation; scoliosis; kyphosis; spinal tumor; and failed previous fusion (pseudarthrosis). These pedicle screw spinal systems must comply with the following special controls:(i) Compliance with material standards;
(ii) Compliance with mechanical testing standards;
(iii) Compliance with biocompatibility standards; and
