The EUROPA™ Pedicle Screw System is intended to provide immobilization of spinal segments in skeletally mature patients as an adjunct to fusion in the treatment of acute and chronic instabilities or deformities of the thoracic, lumbar, and sacral spine.
The EUROPA™ Pedicle Screw System is intended for posterior, noncervical pedicle fixation for the following indications: degenerative disc disease (defined as back pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies); spondylolisthesis; trauma (i.e., fracture or dislocation); spinal stenosis; curvatures (i.e., scoliosis, kyphosis, and/or lordosis); tumor; pseudoarthrosis; and failed previous fusion.
The EUROPA™ Pedicle Screw System is comprised of both Open and Minimally Invasive Surgery (MIS) polyaxial pedicle screw and rod components that are available in different sizes to accommodate various patient anatomical and physiological requirements.
The pedicle screws are manufactured from Ti-6Al-4V ELI alloy (ASTM F136). The rods are manufactured from Molybdenum-47.5Rhenium alloy (ASTM F3273) or cobalt chromium alloy (ASTM F1537).
The system also includes adjustable-length transverse rod cross connectors manufactured from Ti-6Al-4V ELI alloy (ASTM F136-13) that may be used in EUROPA™ systems with cobalt chromium rods where increased structural rigidity of the construct is needed.
The purpose of this 510(k) submission is to obtain market clearance for additional EUROPA™ Pedicle Screw System rod to rod connectors manufactured from Ti-6AI-4V ELI alloy (ASTM F136-13) which may be used to connect or extend constructs in an in-line or parallel fashion.
This document, a 510(k) summary for the Europa Pedicle Screw System, describes a medical device, specifically a pedicle screw system for spinal fixation, and its substantial equivalence to previously marketed devices. It does not contain any information about an AI/ML powered device, acceptance criteria, or a study that proves the device meets acceptance criteria.
Therefore, I cannot fulfill your request as the provided text does not contain the necessary information regarding:
- Acceptance criteria for an AI/ML device.
- Reported device performance against such criteria.
- Sample sizes for test or training sets.
- Data provenance.
- Expert involvement in ground truth establishment or adjudication.
- MRMC studies or effect sizes.
- Standalone algorithm performance.
- Ground truth methodology.
The supplied text is a standard FDA 510(k) clearance letter and summary for a physical medical implant (pedicle screw system), focusing on its mechanical performance and substantial equivalence to predicates, not on AI/ML diagnostic or assistive technology.

Dear Jordan Bauman:
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 (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 located at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmp/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.
Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803) for devices or postmarketing safety reporting (21 CFR 4, Subpart B) for combination products (see
{1}------------------------------------------------
https://www.fda.gov/combination-products/guidance-regulatory-information/postmarketing-safety-reportingcombination-products); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820) for devices or current good manufacturing practices (21 CFR 4, Subpart A) for combination products; and, if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR Part 807.97). For questions regarding the reporting of adverse events under the MDR regulation (21 CFR Part 803), please go to https://www.fda.gov/medical-device-safety/medical-device-reportingmdr-how-report-medical-device-problems.
For comprehensive regulatory information about medical devices and radiation-emitting products, including information about labeling regulations, please see Device Advice (https://www.fda.gov/medicaldevices/device-advice-comprehensive-regulatory-assistance) and CDRH Learn (https://www.fda.gov/training-and-continuing-education/cdrh-learn). Additionally, you may contact the Division of Industry and Consumer Education (DICE) to ask a question about a specific regulatory topic. See the DICE website (https://www.fda.gov/medical-device-advice-comprehensive-regulatoryassistance/contact-us-division-industry-and-consumer-education-dice) for more information or contact DICE by email (DICE@fda.hhs.gov) or phone (1-800-638-2041 or 301-796-7100).
