Intended Use

When used as a pedicle screw fixation system in the non-cervical posterior spine in skeletally mature patients, the TSRH® Spinal System is indicated for one or more of the following: (1) degenerative disc disease (defined as back pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by patient history and radiographic studies), (2) degenerative spondylolisthesis with objective evidence of neurologic imparment, (3) fracture, (4) dislocation, (5) scoliosis, (6) kyphosis, (7) spinal tumor, and/or (8) failed previous fusion (pseudarthrosis).

In addition, when used as a pedicle screw fixation system, the TSRH® Spinal System is indicated for skeletally mature patients: (1) having severe spondylolisthesis (Grades 3 and 4) of the fifth lumbar-first sacral (L5-S1) joint; (2) who are receiving fusions using autogenous bone graft only; (3) who are having the device fixed or attached to the lumbar and sacral spine (L3 and below); and (4) who are having the device removed after the development of a solid fusion mass.

When used as a posterior, non-cervical, non-pedicle screw fixation system, the TSRH® Spinal System is intended for the following indications: (1) degenerative disc disease (as defined by back pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by patient history and radiographic studies), (2) spondylolisthesis, (3) fracture, (4) spinal deformities (i.e., scoliosis, kyphosis, and/or lordosis), (5) spinal stenosis, (6) pseudarthrosis. (7) tumor resection, and/or (8) unsuccessful previous attempts at spinal fusion.

For anterior use only the TSRH® Spinal System has the additional indications of: (1) spinal stenosis and/or, (2) spondylolysis.

Device Description

The purpose of this 510(k) submission is to add a variety of modified TSRH® components (rods, screws and connectors) to the system.

The TSRH® Spinal System is intended to help provide immobilization and stabilization of spinal segments as an adjunct to fusion of the thoracic, lumbar, and/or sacral spine.

The TSRH® System consists of a variety of shapes and sizes of rods, hooks, screws, cross connectors, and connecting components. In addition, GDLH® rods, DYNALOK PLUS™ bolts, CD HORIZON® Low Profile MULTI-SPAN® CROSSLINK® Plates, GDLH® rod/bolt connectors, GDLH® Variable Angle T-Bolts, and GDLH® and CD HORIZON® set screws and locking screws may be used with the TSRH® Spinal System.

The TSRH® Spinal System implant components can be rigidly locked into a variety of configurations, with each construct being tailor-made for the individual case. The hooks are intended for posterior use only and the staples are for anterior use only. The TSRH-3D® connectors and TSRH-3D® screws are intended for posterior use only. All CROSSLINK® Plates are for posterior use and the CROSSLINK® Axial and Offset Plates may be used anteriorly as well.

The TSRH® Spinal System components are fabricated from stainless steel conforming to ASTM F-138 or ISO 5832-1 or ISO 5832-9. Alternatively, they may be fabricated from medical grade titanium alloy conforming to ASTM F-136 or ISO 5832-3 or medical grade titanium conforming to ASTM F67. The TSRH® Spinal System may be sold sterile or non-sterile.

AI/ML Overview

The provided document is a 510(k) summary for the TSRH Spinal System, an orthopedic implant. It describes the device's indications for use and states that the components were declared substantially equivalent to previously cleared components.

However, the document specifically states that a "Failure Mode and Effects Criticality Analysis/Design Verification" was provided. It does not include information about specific acceptance criteria or a study proving that the device meets those criteria, especially in the context of device performance as one might expect for a digital health or AI-driven medical device. The 510(k) clearance process primarily focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device, rather than detailed performance studies against pre-defined acceptance criteria as would be required for a novel device or AI product.

Therefore, many of the requested fields cannot be answered from the provided text because they pertain to a type of device performance evaluation that is not detailed in this 510(k) summary for a spinal implant system.

Here's an attempt to answer the questions based only on the provided text, with clear indications where the information is not present:


1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance

Acceptance CriteriaReported Device Performance
Not specified in the document. The 510(k) focuses on substantial equivalence based on a "Failure Mode and Effects Criticality Analysis/Design Verification" for the physical components, not performance metrics like accuracy, sensitivity, or specificity.Not specified in the document. No quantitative performance metrics are provided. The device's "performance" is implicitly tied to its substantial equivalence to predicate devices and being able to fulfill its stated indications for use as an adjunct to spinal fusion.

2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective)

  • Sample size for the test set: Not applicable and not mentioned. This type of information would be relevant for clinical performance studies, which are not detailed in this 510(k) summary. The "test set" for this type of substantial equivalence submission primarily involves engineering design verification/validation (e.g., mechanical testing, material characterization), not a clinical data set in the same way an AI product would.
  • Data provenance: Not applicable and not mentioned.

3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts (e.g. radiologist with 10 years of experience)

  • Not applicable and not mentioned. This is typically relevant for clinical studies where expert consensus might define a ground truth for diagnostic accuracy, which is not the subject of this 510(k). The "ground truth" for the TSRH Spinal System would be its mechanical integrity and biocompatibility, as confirmed through design verification processes.

4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set

  • Not applicable and not mentioned.

5. If a multi reader multi case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance

  • No, a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was not done and is not mentioned. This is relevant for AI-assisted diagnostic devices, which is not what the TSRH Spinal System is.

6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done

  • Not applicable and not mentioned. The TSRH Spinal System is a physical orthopedic implant, not an algorithm.

7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc)

  • The document implies that the ground truth for the device's acceptable performance is its substantial equivalence to predicate devices and adherence to established material and mechanical standards (e.g., ASTM F-138, ISO 5832-1, ASTM F-136). The "Failure Mode and Effects Criticality Analysis/Design Verification" mentioned would likely involve engineering analyses and testing against established safety and performance benchmarks for spinal implants, rather than clinical ground truth as defined by pathology or outcomes data in a prospective study for a novel device.

8. The sample size for the training set

  • Not applicable and not mentioned. This applies to machine learning models, not physical orthopedic implants.

9. How the ground truth for the training set was established

  • Not applicable and not mentioned.
