Intended Use

When intended to promote fusion of the cervical spine and occipito-cervico-thoracic junction (occiput-T3), the Summit Occipito-Cervico-Thoracic (OCT) Spinal System is indicated for:

  • ddd (neck pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc as confirmed by patient history and radiographic studies)
  • spondylolisthesis
  • spinal stenosis
  • fracture/dislocation
  • atlantoaxial fracture with instability
  • occipitocervical dislocation
  • revision of previous cervical spine surgery
  • tumors

The occipital bone screws are limited to occipital fixation only.

The use of the minipolyaxial screws is limited to placement in the upper thoracic spine (T1-T3) in treating thoracic conditions only. They are not intended to be placed in the cervical spine.

The Songer Cable System to be used with the Summit OCT Spinal System allows for wire/cable attachment to the posterior cervical spine.

The Summit OCT System can also be linked to the ISOLA, TiMX, Monarch and MOSS Miami Systems using the dual wedding band and axial connectors, and via dual diameter rods.

Device Description

The Summit OCT Spinal System consists of plates, nuts, bone screws, rods, transverse rod connectors, cable connectors, dual wedding band and axial connectors, set screws, minipolyaxial screws and Songer Cables. For occipitocervicothoracic fusion, the transition rod is bent and cut to the appropriate length. The occipital plate is fixed to the occiput with bone screws and the transition rod is attached to the plate by a locking mechanism. This locking mechanism consists of a bolt and a washer which are free to rotate and translate along a slot in the occipital plates. The rod loads from the top and is fixed and locked into place with a mini outer nut. Sub-axially, cable connectors are fixed to the transition rod and attached to the spine via sublaminar cabling looped through the cable connectors. The end of the construct is stabilized with polyaxial screws and mini outer nuts to the upper thoracic spine, as required.

The Summit OCT System can also be linked to the ISOLA, TiMX, Monarch and MOSS Miami Systems using the dual wedding band and axial connectors, and via dual diameter rods.

Manufactured from ASTM F-136 implant grade titanium alloy.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text describes a medical device, the Summit OCT Spinal System, and its indications for use, but it does not contain acceptance criteria for device performance or any study that proves the device meets such criteria.

The document is a 510(k) summary, which is a premarket notification to the FDA to demonstrate that the device is substantially equivalent to a legally marketed predicate device. This process typically relies on comparing the new device's technological characteristics and proposed indications to those of a predicate device, along with summary data from testing (often bench testing for mechanical devices). It doesn't usually involve clinical trials with human subjects to establish performance metrics like sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, or to study human reader improvement with AI.

Here's how the requested information maps to the provided text:


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

  • Acceptance Criteria for Performance: Not specified in the provided text. The 510(k) summary focuses on substantial equivalence based on materials, design, and intended use, rather than specific performance metrics (e.g., sensitivity, specificity for a diagnostic device, or failure rates for a therapeutic device).
  • Reported Device Performance: The document states: "Biomechanical testing, including static and dynamic construct axial compression bending and static construct torsion, were conducted." However, the results of this testing (i.e., what performance was achieved or what acceptance criteria were met) are not provided.

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

  • Not applicable/Not provided. The document mentions "biomechanical testing" but does not detail the sample sizes (e.g., number of constructs tested), provenance, or whether it was a retrospective or prospective test. Given it's biomechanical testing, it would likely involve in-vitro or simulated environments.

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/Not provided. This type of information is relevant for studies involving human interpretation or clinical outcomes, which are not detailed here.

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

  • Not applicable/Not provided. Adjudication methods are typically used in studies where human readers are involved in making assessments, which is not described for this device's performance evaluation.

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 MRMC study was described. This device is a spinal implant system (hardware), not an AI-assisted diagnostic tool. Therefore, a study comparing human reader performance with and without AI assistance is not relevant or included.

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

  • No standalone algorithm performance was described. As stated above, this is a physical medical device, not an algorithm or AI system.

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

  • For the "biomechanical testing" mentioned, the "ground truth" would likely be engineering specifications, material properties, and established testing standards (e.g., ASTM standards for biomechanical implants). However, the specific details are not provided.

8. The sample size for the training set

  • Not applicable/Not provided. This concept is relevant for machine learning algorithms, which is not the nature of this device or its evaluation as described.

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

  • Not applicable/Not provided, for the same reasons as point 8.

Summary:

The provided 510(k) summary for the Summit OCT Spinal System focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices, outlining its materials, components, and intended use. While it mentions "biomechanical testing," it does not include any specific acceptance criteria or the results of such testing. The document does not describe any clinical studies, studies involving human readers, or the use of artificial intelligence. Therefore, it does not contain the information requested regarding acceptance criteria, study methodologies, or performance metrics typically associated with device performance claims in the context of clinical or diagnostic efficacy.

§ 888.3070 Thoracolumbosacral pedicle screw system.

(a)
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.
(b)
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.
(iv) Validation testing must demonstrate the cleanliness and sterility of, or the ability to clean and sterilize, the device components and device-specific instruments.
(v) Labeling must include the following:
(A) A clear description of the technological features of the device including identification of device materials and the principles of device operation;
(B) Intended use and indications for use, including levels of fixation;
(C) Identification of magnetic resonance (MR) compatibility status;
(D) Cleaning and sterilization instructions for devices and instruments that are provided non-sterile to the end user; and
(E) Detailed instructions of each surgical step, including device removal.
(3) Class II (special controls), when a semi-rigid system is intended to provide immobilization and stabilization of spinal segments in the thoracic, lumbar, and sacral spine as an adjunct to fusion for any indication. In addition to complying with the special controls in paragraphs (b)(2)(i) through (v) of this section, these pedicle screw systems must comply with the following special controls:
(i) Demonstration that clinical performance characteristics of the device support the intended use of the product, including assessment of fusion compared to a clinically acceptable fusion rate.
(ii) Semi-rigid systems marketed prior to the effective date of this reclassification must submit an amendment to their previously cleared premarket notification (510(k)) demonstrating compliance with the special controls in paragraphs (b)(2)(i) through (v) and paragraph (b)(3)(i) of this section.
