Intended Use
The MectaLIF implants 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 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 prior to treatment with the devices.
Device Description
The subject MectaLIF Extension implants are a line extension to the MectaLIF Oblique and Posterior PEEK implants (K110927, K131671 and K181970) and MectaLIF Oblique and Posterior TiPEEK implants (K133192 and K181970). MectaLIF implants are used to replace a degenerative disc in order to restore the height of the spinal column structure. The devices are not intended to be coupled with other implants but are intended to be used with supplemental fixation and autogenous bone graft. The subject MectaLIF Extension includes various sizes of MectaLIF Oblique and MectaLIF Posterior implants with different widths, lengths, heights, and lordosis angles. The implants are made of implant grade Polyetherketone and have markers made of Tantalum. The devices are available both uncoated or coated with commercially pure titanium coating.
More Information

No
The 510(k) summary describes a physical implant device for spinal fusion and does not mention any software, algorithms, or data processing capabilities that would suggest the use of AI/ML.

Yes
The device is indicated for use in patients with degenerative disc disease to restore spinal height, implying a therapeutic purpose to treat a medical condition.

No

The device is an implant for fusion in patients with degenerative disc disease, not a tool for diagnosing the condition.

No

The device description clearly states it is a line of implants made of Polyetherketone and Tantalum, which are physical hardware components.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health. This information is used for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Device Description: The provided text describes a surgical implant (MectaLIF implants) used to replace a degenerative disc in the spine. It is a physical device implanted into the body.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is for surgical fusion of spinal levels in patients with degenerative disc disease. This is a surgical procedure, not a diagnostic test performed on a specimen outside the body.

The device is a surgical implant, not an in vitro diagnostic 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. Lussier:

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
