Intended Use

The CarboClear® X Pedicle Screw System is intended to restore the integrity of the spinal column even in the absence of fusion for a limited time period in patients with advanced stage tumors involving the thoracic and lumbar spine in whom life expectancy is of insufficient duration to permit achievement of fusion.

Device Description

The CarboClear X Pedicle Screw System is composed of implants in various dimensions, used to build a spinal construct; and of a set of instruments, intended to assist in the insertion and placement of the implants.

The implants include pedicle screws, rods, locking components (a set screw and a nut) and transverse connectors. The implants are made of carbon fiber-reinforced polyetheretherketone (CFR-PEEK). The threaded portion of the pedicle screws is encased within a thin titanium shell, and includes a small tantalum marker.

The implants are supplied sterile, and are intended for single use.

AI/ML Overview

This document is a 510(k) summary for the CarboClear® X Pedicle Screw System, a medical device. It does not present acceptance criteria or a study proving that an AI/ML powered device meets acceptance criteria.

Instead, it provides:

  • Device Name: CarboClear® X Pedicle Screw System
  • Intended Use/Indications for Use: To restore the integrity of the spinal column (even in the absence of fusion for a limited time) in patients with advanced stage thoracic and lumbar spine tumors who have insufficient life expectancy to permit fusion.
  • Regulation Number and Device Class: 21 CFR §888.3070; Class II
  • Product Code: NKB
  • Predicate Devices: CarboClear® Pedicle Screw System (K173487, K182377, K201926) as the primary predicate, and several additional predicate devices from other manufacturers.
  • Performance Data: Static and dynamic tests were performed according to ASTM F1717 and ASTM F1798.
  • Conclusion: The device is substantially equivalent to its predicate devices based on intended use, design, material, dimensions, technological characteristics, and principles of operation, and its performance test results are comparable.

Therefore, since the provided text relates to a traditional medical device (pedicle screw system) and not an AI/ML powered device, I cannot extract the information requested in your prompt regarding acceptance criteria and studies for an AI/ML device.

Dear Hila Wachsler-Avrahami:

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/cfpmn/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

{1}------------------------------------------------

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 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).
