The SteriSpine PS is a single-use pedicle screw system designed for spinal fixation. It is classified under the nomenclature category NKB (Orthopedic Device: Spinal Fixation Device) and is intended for use in open, minimally invasive surgery (MIS), or percutaneous procedures to stabilize vertebrae.
This system is supplied sterile and includes ready-to-use, single-use instruments. It is regulated under FDA 510K clearance (K151921) and is intended for use in orthopedic spinal surgery applications. The SteriSpine PS was developed to enhance surgical flexibility and traceability, ensuring compatibility with various surgical approaches and augmentations.
Frequently asked questions
What types of surgical procedures is the SteriSpine PS system designed for, and how does it differ from traditional pedicle screw systems in terms of approach?
The SteriSpine PS is specifically designed for spinal fixation in open, minimally invasive surgery (MIS), or percutaneous procedures, offering flexibility across different surgical approaches. Unlike traditional systems, it is engineered to enhance adaptability for these varied techniques while maintaining compatibility with augmentations. This versatility makes it suitable for surgeons who need a single-use solution that can be applied in both open and minimally invasive contexts without compromising stability or precision.
Is the SteriSpine PS system single-use, and if so, what does this mean for surgical workflow and cost efficiency?
Yes, the SteriSpine PS is a single-use system, meaning each component—including screws and instruments—is intended for one surgical procedure only. This design eliminates the need for sterilization between cases, reducing surgical workflow interruptions and potential contamination risks. While it may require purchasing multiple kits for repeated procedures, the sterile, ready-to-use nature simplifies inventory management and ensures consistent performance without reprocessing steps.
How is the SteriSpine PS system supplied, and what should clinicians expect in terms of sterility and packaging?
The SteriSpine PS is supplied sterile, meaning it is pre-sterilized and packaged to maintain sterility until use. The system includes ready-to-use, single-use instruments alongside the screws, ensuring no additional sterilization is required in the operating room. Clinicians can expect a sealed, sterile package designed for immediate surgical use, reducing preparation time and ensuring compliance with infection control protocols.
What regulatory pathway was followed for FDA clearance of the SteriSpine PS, and what does this mean for clinicians using the device?
The SteriSpine PS received FDA 510K clearance (K151921) under the Traditional 510(k) pathway, with a decision classification of Substantially Equivalent (SESE) to a predicate device. This means the FDA determined it has the same intended use and technological characteristics as a previously cleared device, ensuring it meets regulatory standards for safety and effectiveness. Clinicians can rely on this clearance as evidence of the device’s compliance with FDA requirements for spinal fixation systems.
