Intended Use
The Hexanium® PLIF (Posterior Lumbar Interbody Fusion) system is an intervertebral body fusion device indicated for use with autogenous bone graft in skeletally mature patients with Degenerative Disc Disease (DDD) at one or two continuous 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 I spondylolisthesis or retrolisthesis at the involved level(s). Patients should have received at least 6 months of non-operative treatment prior to treatment with Hexanium PLIF system. This device has to be filled with autogenous bone graft material. This device is implanted via the posterior approach. Hexanium PLIF system must be used in combination with supplemental internal spinal fixation which has been cleared by the FDA for use in the lumbar spine.
Device Description
The Hexanium® PLIF (Posterior Lumbar Interbody Fusion) is a titanium alloy (Ti6Al4V ELI) interbody cage manufactured via an Additive Manufacturing method. The honeycomb structure allows for bone through-growth through the structure of the cage as well as providing lateral and vertical bone graft windows in the body of the cage. Hexanium® PLIF cages are available in heights of 7-16 mm (in 1 mm increments), width of 9 mm, lengths of 22 and 25 mm, and lordosis angles of 0°, 5°, and 8°. Hexanium® PLIF cages are provided sterile and supplied with a set of non-sterile surgical instruments.

No
The summary describes a physical implant (interbody cage) and its mechanical properties, with no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would typically involve AI/ML. The "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML" and "Mentions image processing" fields are explicitly marked as "Not Found".

Yes.
The device is used to treat Degenerative Disc Disease (DDD) through intervertebral body fusion, which is a therapeutic intervention aimed at alleviating pain and restoring function.

No

The device description clearly states it is an "intervertebral body fusion device" and an "interbody cage," which is an implant used in surgery, not a tool for diagnosis. Its intended use is to treat Degenerative Disc Disease, not to diagnose it.

No

The device description clearly states it is a titanium alloy interbody cage manufactured via additive manufacturing, indicating it is a physical hardware device.

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, or tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Device Description and Intended Use: The Hexanium® PLIF system is an implantable medical device used in surgery to fuse vertebrae in the lumbar spine. It is a physical object implanted into the body, not a device that analyzes samples taken from the body.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any analysis of biological samples, laboratory procedures, or diagnostic testing.

Therefore, based on the provided information, the Hexanium® PLIF system is a surgical implant, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

§ 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 Ms. Lincé:

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.
