Intended Use
Advanced Neuromodulation Systems Lamitrode Spinal Cord Stimulation Leads are indicated for the treatment of chronic pain of the trunk and limbs, either as the sole mitigating agent, or as an adjunct to other modes of therapy used in a multidisciplinary approach and is intended to be used with Advanced Neuromodulation Systems extensions and/or receivers, transmitters, and antennae. The proposed device modification does not affect the original intended use of the legally marketed device.
Device Description
Advanced Neuromodulation Systems, Inc.'s Lamitrode Leads are implantable devices consisting of spaced electrodes connected by wires within a cover sheath. These lamitrode leads are introduced into the epidural space via a hemilaminectomy, superior to the spinal segment responsible for pain impulse transmission, and connected to a radio-frequency (RF) receiver or pulse generator.
More Information

No
The document describes a physical implantable device (spinal cord stimulation leads) and its materials and performance testing. There is no mention of software, algorithms, or any characteristics indicative of AI/ML.

Yes
The device is indicated for the treatment of chronic pain, which is a therapeutic purpose.

No

The device is indicated for the treatment of chronic pain as a mitigating agent, not for diagnosing a condition. It is a stimulator, not a diagnostic tool.

No

The device description explicitly states it is an "implantable device consisting of spaced electrodes connected by wires within a cover sheath," which are physical hardware components.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for the treatment of chronic pain of the trunk and limbs by stimulating the spinal cord. This is a therapeutic intervention performed in vivo (within the living body).
  • Device Description: The device is an implantable lead introduced into the epidural space. This is a physical device used for direct interaction with the patient's nervous system.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, or tissue) in vitro (outside the body) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.

IVD devices are used to perform tests on samples taken from the body to provide diagnostic information. This device is a therapeutic device used to directly treat a condition within the body.

Non-clinical Testing:
Biostability testing of the polyuethane and silicone material is provided in the manufacturer's Master File. Master File biocompatibility information demonstrates that the change to polyurethane and platinum cured silicone raises no significant safety or effectiveness questions relating to biocompatibility.

Comparative testing of product bond strength indicates that the polyurethane lead insulator to the platinum cured paddle has a better bond strength than the current product.

§ 882.5880 Implanted spinal cord stimulator for pain relief.

(a)
Identification. An implanted spinal cord stimulator for pain relief is a device that is used to stimulate electrically a patient's spinal cord to relieve severe intractable pain. The stimulator consists of an implanted receiver with electrodes that are placed on the patient's spinal cord and an external transmitter for transmitting the stimulating pulses across the patient's skin to the implanted receiver.(b)
Classification. Class II (performance standards).
