Intended Use
The Venus Cervical Plate System is intervertebral screw fixation of the cervical spine at levels C2-T 1. The system is indicated for temporary stabilization of the anterior spine during the development of cervical spine fusions in patients with the following indications: -Degenerative Disc Disease (as defined by neck pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by patient history and radiographic studies) -Trauma (including fractures) -Tumors -Deformities or curvatures (including kyphosis, lordosis, or scoliosis) -Pseudarthrosis -Failed previous fusion -Decompression of the spinal cord following total or partial cervical vertebrectomy -Spondylolisthesis -Spinal stenosis.
Device Description
The Venus Cervical Plate System is supplied non-sterile, single use and are fabricated from titanium alloy (Ti6Al4V-ELI) that conforms to ASTM F136. Various sizes of these components are available. The Venus Cervical Plate System configurations ranging in lengths from 17 mm to the one-level plates, 27 mm to 40 mm for the two-level plates, 45 mm for the three-level plates, , and 70 mm to 90 mm for the four -level plates.

More Information

No
The description focuses on the material, dimensions, and mechanical properties of a physical implantable device (cervical plate and screws) and does not mention any software, algorithms, or data processing capabilities indicative of AI/ML.

Yes

Explanation: The device is indicated for temporary stabilization of the anterior spine during the development of cervical spine fusions in patients with various medical conditions, including degenerative disc disease, trauma, tumors, and deformities, which clearly points to a therapeutic purpose.

No

The Venus Cervical Plate System is a medical implant intended for temporary stabilization and fusion of the cervical spine, not for diagnosing medical conditions.

No

The device description explicitly states it is fabricated from titanium alloy and includes physical components like plates and screws, indicating it is a hardware device, not software-only.

Based on the provided text, the Venus Cervical Plate System is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) taken from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Device Description: The Venus Cervical Plate System is described as an implantable medical device made of titanium alloy, intended for surgical fixation of the cervical spine. It is a physical device implanted within the body.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is for temporary stabilization of the anterior spine during cervical spine fusions. This is a surgical procedure, not an in vitro diagnostic test.

The description clearly indicates a surgical implant, not a device used for testing biological samples outside the body.

§ 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.
