No
The document describes surgical instruments and implants, with no mention of AI or ML capabilities. The performance studies focus on non-clinical testing of the instruments' performance compared to predicate devices.
No
The device, CONDUIT™ Instruments, is described as non-sterile, reusable instruments used during the placement of interbody cages in spinal surgery. It is a surgical tool, not a device that directly provides therapy or treatment to a patient.
No
The CONDUIT™ Instruments are described as reusable instruments used during the placement of interbody cages during spinal surgery. Their purpose is to assist in surgical procedures, not to diagnose a condition or disease.
No
The device description explicitly states that the CONDUIT™ Instruments are "non-sterile, reusable instruments" made from materials commonly used in orthopedic and neurological procedures. This indicates a physical, hardware-based medical device, not a software-only one.
No, 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. They are used to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
- Device Description: The CONDUIT™ Instruments are described as "non-sterile, reusable instruments that may be used during placement of various EIT Cellular Titanium® Interbody Cages during spinal surgery." They are tools used during a surgical procedure on the patient's body.
- Intended Use: The intended use is to be used with surgical implants (spinal cages) during surgery. This is a surgical instrument, not a diagnostic test performed on a sample.
The information provided clearly indicates that these instruments are used in vivo (within the living body) during surgery, not in vitro (in a lab setting) on a sample.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The CONDUIT™ Instruments are intended to be used with the EIT Cellular Titanium® Cages:
EIT Cellular Titanium® Cervical Cage
The EIT Cellular Titanium® Cervical Cages with a microscopic roughened surface and micro and nano-scale features are intervertebral body fusion devices intended for use for anterior cervical interbody fusion in skeletally mature patients with cervical disc degeneration and/or cervical spinal instability, as confirmed by imaging studies (radiographs, CT, MRI), that results in radiculopathy, myelopathy, and/or pain at multiple contiguous levels from C2 - T1. The EIT Cellular Titanium Cervical Cages are also to be used with supplemental fixation systems that have been cleared for use in the cervical spine. EIT Cellular Titanium Cervical Cages are designed for use with autogenous and/or allogeneic bone graft comprised of cancellous, and/or corticocancellous bone graft to facilitate fusion.
EIT Cellular Titanium® ALIF Cage
The EIT Cellular Titanium® ALIF Cages with a microscopic roughened surface and micro and nano-scale features in combination with supplemental fixation are indicated for use with autogenous bone graft in patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) at one or two contiguous spinal levels from L2 - S1 whose condition requires the use of interbody fusion. Degenerative disc disease is defined as discogenic pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by patient history and radiographic studies. These DDD patients may have up to Grade I spondylolisthesis at the involved level(s). These patients may have had a previous non-fusion spinal surgery at the involved spinal level(s). Patients must be skeletally mature. Patients should have received 6 months of nonoperative treatment with the devices.
EIT Cellular Titanium® TLIF Cage
The EIT Cellular Titanium® TLIF Cages with a microscopic roughened surface and micro and nano-scale features in combination with supplemental fixation are indicated for use with autogenous bone graft in patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) at one or two contiguous spinal levels from L2 - S1 whose condition requires the use of interbody fusion. Degenerative disc disease is defined as discogenic pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by patient history and radiographic studies. These DDD patients may have up to Grade I spondylolisthesis at the involved level(s). These patients may have had a previous non-fusion spinal surgery at the involved spinal level(s). Patients must be skeletally mature. Patients should have received 6 months of non-operative treatment with the devices.
EIT Cellular Titanium® LLIF Cage
The EIT Cellular Titanium® LLIF Cages with a microscopic roughened surface and micro and nano-scale features are indicated for intervertebral body fusion procedures in skeletally mature patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) at one or two contiguous levels from 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 1 spondylolisthesis or retrolisthesis at the involved level(s). These spinal implants are to be used with autogenous bone graft and/or allogeneic bone graft comprised of cancellous and/or corticocancellous bone graft. EIT Spine LLIF is to be used with supplemental fixation. Patients should have at least six (6) months of non-operative treatment with an intervertebral cage.
EIT Cellular Titanium® T/PLIF Cage
The EIT Cellular Titanium® T/PLIF Cages with a microscopic roughened surface and micro and nano-scale features in combination with supplemental fixation are indicated for use with autogenous bone graft in patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) at one or two contiguous spinal levels from L2 = S1 whose condition requires the use of interbody fusion. Degenerative disc disease is defined as discogenic pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by patient history and radiographic studies. These DDD patients may have up to Grade I spondylolisthesis at the involved level(s). These patients may have had a previous non-fusion spinal surgery at the involved spinal level(s). Patients must be skeletally mature. Patients should have received 6 months of nonoperative treatment with the devices.
