Intended Use
The ZSFab Cervical Interbody System is intended for anterior interbody fusion in skeletally mature patients who have had at least six weeks of non-operative treatment. The ZSFab Cervical Interbody System is indicated to treat 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 ZSFab Cervical Interbody System is designed for use with autogenous and/or allogeneic bone graft comprised of cancellous and/or corticocancellous bone and/or demineralized allograft bone with bone marrow aspirate to facilitate fusion and to be used with supplemental fixation cleared for use in the cervical spine. Implants having a lordotic angulation >10° are required to be used with an anterior cervical plate as the form of supplemental fixation.
Device Description
The ZSFab Cervical Interbody System includes additively manufactured interbody fusion devices for cervical implantation. The implants are designed with lattice structures to provide surgical stabilization of the spine. The lattices have near-elliptical pores with minor axis length of 500-920μm and maior axis length of 810-1390μm. Each interbody has a bone graft window that can be packed with bone graft material. The implants are available in a variety of height, length, width and lordotic angulation combinations to accommodate the patient specific anatomy and clinical circumstances.
More Information

No
The summary describes a physical implant device and its mechanical properties, with no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate the use of AI/ML. The "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML" field is explicitly "Not Found".

Yes

The device is intended to treat cervical disc degeneration and/or cervical spinal instability, which are medical conditions, and aims to facilitate fusion and provide surgical stabilization of the spine. These uses align with the definition of a therapeutic device.

No

This device is a cervical interbody system intended for fusion and stabilization of the spine, not for diagnosing conditions. It is used to treat cervical disc degeneration and instability, which are confirmed by imaging studies, but the device itself does not perform the diagnosis.

No

The device description clearly states that the ZSFab Cervical Interbody System includes "additively manufactured interbody fusion devices for cervical implantation," which are physical implants, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • IVDs are used to examine specimens from the human body. The ZSFab Cervical Interbody System is an implantable device designed to be surgically placed within the cervical spine. It does not analyze or test biological samples.
  • The intended use is for surgical fusion. The purpose of this device is to provide structural support and facilitate bone fusion in the cervical spine, not to diagnose a condition based on in vitro testing.
  • The device description details a physical implant. The description focuses on the material, design, and dimensions of the interbody fusion device, which is a physical implant.

The information provided clearly describes a surgical implant used for spinal fusion, which falls under the category of medical devices, but not specifically In Vitro Diagnostics.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

Mechanical testing of the worst case ZSFab Cervical Interbody System was relied upon in support of the original ZSFab Cervical Interbody System clearance. The testing included static and dynamic axial compression and static and dynamic torsion according to ASTM F2077, subsidence according to ASTM F2267 and expulsion. An engineering rationale was used to demonstrate that the additional cervical interbody sizes did not introduce a new worst case. Sterilization validations were successfully performed to meet AAMI ST79 parameters.

§ 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.
