No
The summary does not mention AI, ML, or related terms, and the device description focuses on mechanical and navigation components.
Yes
The device is used for "drilling, burring, removing, and otherwise manipulating hard tissue, bone, bone cement, prosthesis, implant, and other bone related tissue during spinal and orthopedic procedures", which are therapeutic actions.
No
The VERZA™ High Speed Drills are indicated for drilling, burring, removing, and manipulating hard tissue during spinal and orthopedic procedures, which are surgical actions, not diagnostic ones. While they may be navigated using systems that aid in precisely locating anatomical structures (ExcelsiusGPS® or ExcelsiusHub™), the drill itself performs a therapeutic/surgical function.
No
The device description explicitly mentions electrical drill handpieces/attachments, a motor, a control unit, and a foot pedal, which are all hardware components. While it can be navigated using software systems (ExcelsiusGPS® or ExcelsiusHub™), the core device itself is a hardware system.
Based on the provided information, none of the devices described are IVDs (In Vitro Diagnostics).
Here's why:
- IVDs are used to examine specimens derived from the human body. This includes things like blood, urine, tissue samples, etc., to provide information about a patient's health status.
- The devices described are surgical instruments and navigation systems. They are used directly on the patient during surgical procedures to manipulate tissue, guide instruments, and aid in placement of implants.
The intended use and device descriptions clearly indicate that these devices are for surgical procedures and not for testing biological samples.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
VERZA™ High Speed Drills are indicated for drilling, burring, removing, and otherwise manipulating hard tissue, bone, bone cement, prosthesis, implant, and other bone related tissue during spinal and orthopedic procedures.
ExcelsiusGPS® is intended for use as an aid for precisely locating anatomical structures and for the spatial positioning and orientation of an instrument holder or guide to be used by surgeons for navigating and/or guiding compatible surgical instruments in open or percutaneous procedures provided that the required fiducial markers and rigid patient anatomy can be identified on CT scans or fluoroscopy. The system is indicated for the placement of spinal and orthopedic bone screws and interbody fusion devices.
ExcelsiusHub™ is intended for use as an aid for precisely locating anatomical structures to be used by surgeons for navigating compatible surgical instruments in open or percutaneous procedures provided that the required fiducial markers and rigid patient anatomy can be identified on CT scans or fluoroscopy. The system is indicated for the placement of spinal and orthopedic bone screws and interbody fusion devices.

Dear Jennifer Antonacci:
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 (the 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 available 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.
Additional information about changes that may require a new premarket notification are provided in the FDA guidance documents entitled "Deciding When to Submit a 510(k) for a Change to an Existing Device" (https://www.fda.gov/media/99812/download) and "Deciding When to Submit a 510(k) for a Software Change to an Existing Device" (https://www.fda.gov/media/99785/download).
