Regulatory Classification

Identification

(1) Rigid pedicle screw systems are comprised of multiple components, made from a variety of materials that allow the surgeon to build an implant system to fit the patient's anatomical and physiological requirements. Such a spinal implant assembly consists of a combination of screws, longitudinal members (e.g., plates, rods including dual diameter rods, plate/rod combinations), transverse or cross connectors, and interconnection mechanisms (e.g., rod-to-rod connectors, offset connectors).(2) Semi-rigid systems are defined as systems that contain one or more of the following features (including but not limited to): Non-uniform longitudinal elements, or features that allow more motion or flexibility compared to rigid systems.

Special Controls

*Classification.* (1) Class II (special controls), when intended to provide immobilization and stabilization of spinal segments in skeletally mature patients as an adjunct to fusion in the treatment of the following acute and chronic instabilities or deformities of the thoracic, lumbar, and sacral spine: severe spondylolisthesis (grades 3 and 4) of the L5-S1 vertebra; degenerative spondylolisthesis with objective evidence of neurologic impairment; fracture; dislocation; scoliosis; kyphosis; spinal tumor; and failed previous fusion (pseudarthrosis). These pedicle screw spinal systems must comply with the following special controls:(i) Compliance with material standards; (ii) Compliance with mechanical testing standards; (iii) Compliance with biocompatibility standards; and (iv) Labeling that contains these two statements in addition to other appropriate labeling information: “Warning: The safety and effectiveness of pedicle screw spinal systems have been established only for spinal conditions with significant mechanical instability or deformity requiring fusion with instrumentation. These conditions are significant mechanical instability or deformity of the thoracic, lumbar, and sacral spine secondary to severe spondylolisthesis (grades 3 and 4) of the L5-S1 vertebra, degenerative spondylolisthesis with objective evidence of neurologic impairment, fracture, dislocation, scoliosis, kyphosis, spinal tumor, and failed previous fusion (pseudarthrosis). The safety and effectiveness of these devices for any other conditions are unknown.” “Precaution: The implantation of pedicle screw spinal systems should be performed only by experienced spinal surgeons with specific training in the use of this pedicle screw spinal system because this is a technically demanding procedure presenting a risk of serious injury to the patient.” (2) Class II (special controls), when a rigid pedicle screw system is intended to provide immobilization and stabilization of spinal segments in the thoracic, lumbar, and sacral spine as an adjunct to fusion in the treatment of degenerative disc disease and spondylolisthesis other than either severe spondylolisthesis (grades 3 and 4) at L5-S1 or degenerative spondylolisthesis with objective evidence of neurologic impairment. These pedicle screw systems must comply with the following special controls: (i) The design characteristics of the device, including engineering schematics, must ensure that the geometry and material composition are consistent with the intended use. (ii) Non-clinical performance testing must demonstrate the mechanical function and durability of the implant. (iii) Device components must be demonstrated to be biocompatible.

Summary of the Technological Characteristics TSRH® 3Dx 90° Offset Connector The purpose of this 510(k) submission is to include a 3Dx 90° Offset Connector to the TSRH® Spinal System. A TSRH® 90° Offset Connector (K030285, S.E. 02/25/2003) is used as a predicate for geometrical comparison. Another TSRH® 90° Offset Connector (K030285, S.E. 02/25/2003), two TSRH® Standard Connectors (K030285, S.E. 02/25/2003 and K021170, S.E. 07/16/2002), and a CD HORIZON® Multi-Axial Screw (K052054, S.E. 08/19/2005) are used for comparison in mechanical testing. The main difference between the two predicate TSRH® 90° Offset Connectors and the subject 90° Offset Connector is that the subject device is designed to accept the screw vertically while the predicate 90° offset connectors accept the set screw at an angle. Picture 1 below illustrates the subject and predicate devices. Image /page/2/Picture/5 description: The image shows two devices, one labeled as the "Subject Device" and the other as "Predicate Devices". The "Subject Device" has a vertical attachment labeled "Vertical", while the "Predicate Devices" has an angled attachment labeled "Angle". Both devices appear to be made of metal and have a similar design with cylindrical sections and a central opening. Picture 1: Subject Connector vs. TSRH® 90° Offset Predicate Connectors The main difference between the subject connector and the TSRH® Standard Connectors is that the bone screw is assembled to the standard connector along side the rod while, for the subject 90° offset connector, the bone screw sits 90° offset the rod. Also, the subject device is designed to accept the screw vertically while the predicate standard connectors accept the set screw at an angle. {3}------------------------------------------------ #### VII. Identification of Legally Marketed Devices: TSRH® 3Dx 90° Offset Connector Documentation was provided demonstrating that the TSRH® Spinal System is substantially equivalent to other commercially available fixation systems including TSRH® Spinal System in K021170 (S.E. 07/16/2002), K030285 (S.E. 02/25/2003), and CD HORIZON® Spinal System in K052054 (S.E. 08/09/2005). ### VIII. Discussion of the Non-Clinical Testing TSRH® 3Dx 90° Offset Connector Medtronic believes that documentation provided demonstrates that the TSRH® 3Dx 90° Offset Connector is substantially equivalent to it predicates which were cleared in the TSRH® Spinal System. The tests that were performed per ASTM F1798-97, Standard Guide for Evaluating the Static and Fatigue Properties of Interconnection Mechanisms and Subassemblies Used in Spinal Arthrodesis Implants, were axial grip around the rod, axial grip around the screw, axial torsion about the rod and flexion extension static. The test that was performed per ASTM F1717-04, Standard Test Methods for Spinal Implant Constructs in a Vertebrectomy Model, was compression bending fatigue. {4}------------------------------------------------ # DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH & HUMAN SERVICES Image /page/4/Picture/1 description: The image shows the logo for the Department of Health & Human Services - USA.
