Intended Use
The FloSpine KeyLift™ Expandable Interlaminar Stabilization System is a posterior non-pedicle supplemental fixation device, intended for use at a single level in the non-cervical spine (TI-S1). It is intended for plate fixation/attachment to the spinous processes/lamina for the purpose of achieving supplemental fusion in the following conditions: Lumbar spinal stenosis, degenerative disc disease (defined as back pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies), spondylolisthesis, trauma (i.e., fracture or dislocation), and/or tumor. The KeyLif("M Expandable Interlaminar Stabilization System is intended for use with allograft bone and is not intended for stand-alone use.
Device Description
The KeyLift™ implant is an expandable, interlaminar stabilization device that is implanted posteriorly between the lamina and spinous processes of the thoracic and lumbar region. The implant features an expanding distal end which increases the height between the vertebral bodies. The superior and inferior wings are crimped to the spinous process, and a clamp is attached to the implant for final fixation. The components of the KeyLift™ system of implants and reusable instruments are manufactured from titanium alloy per ASTM F136 and stainless steel per ASTM F138 and A564. KeyLift™ implants are available in a range of sizes to accommodate surgeon and patient needs. Both the KeyLift implant and KeyLift Clamp are provided pre-assembled.
More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a mechanical implant and surgical instruments, with no mention of software, algorithms, or AI/ML capabilities.

No.
The device is described as a "supplemental fixation device" for spinal fusion, which implies a structural support role rather than directly providing a therapeutic effect like medication delivery or energy-based treatment.

No

Explanation: The device is described as an "Expandable Interlaminar Stabilization System" intended for "posterior non-pedicle supplemental fixation" to achieve "supplemental fusion." It is an implant used for treatment (stabilization and fusion), not for diagnosing conditions.

No

The device description clearly states that the KeyLift™ system consists of implants and reusable instruments made from titanium alloy and stainless steel. This indicates a hardware-based medical device, not a software-only one.

Based on the provided text, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are medical devices used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information about a person's health.
  • Device Description and Intended Use: The description clearly states the FloSpine KeyLift™ is an implantable device used for posterior non-pedicle supplemental fixation in the spine. It is surgically implanted to stabilize the spine and aid in fusion.
  • Lack of Mention of Samples or Testing: The text does not mention any use of patient samples, laboratory testing, or diagnostic purposes.

Therefore, the FloSpine KeyLift™ is a surgical implant, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

§ 888.3050 Spinal interlaminal fixation orthosis.

(a)
Identification. A spinal interlaminal fixation orthosis is a device intended to be implanted made of an alloy, such as stainless steel, that consists of various hooks and a posteriorly placed compression or distraction rod. The device is implanted, usually across three adjacent vertebrae, to straighten and immobilize the spine to allow bone grafts to unite and fuse the vertebrae together. The device is used primarily in the treatment of scoliosis (a lateral curvature of the spine), but it also may be used in the treatment of fracture or dislocation of the spine, grades 3 and 4 of spondylolisthesis (a dislocation of the spinal column), and lower back syndrome.(b)
Classification. Class II.
