AI/ML Overview

The provided document is a 510(k) Premarket Notification for the Stryker Spine MAPS System, dated December 10, 2003. This type of submission is for medical devices that are substantially equivalent to a legally marketed predicate device. It does not typically include detailed studies involving AI, human readers, ground truth consensus, or the metrics usually associated with evaluating diagnostic or AI-driven devices.

Here's a breakdown of why many of your requested items cannot be found in this document:

  • Device Type: The Stryker Spine MAPS System is a mechanical implant (spinal fixation system), not a diagnostic device or an AI/software-as-a-medical-device (SaMD). Its performance is evaluated through mechanical testing and comparison to predicate devices, not clinical studies involving interpretation of data by human readers or AI algorithms.
  • Regulatory Pathway: The 510(k) pathway focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device in terms of intended use, materials, and design, often supported by non-clinical testing (like mechanical tests). It's not a de novo or PMA pathway that would require extensive clinical efficacy studies with specific performance metrics against a defined ground truth, especially not concerning AI or human reader improvement.

Therefore, many of the requested details are not applicable or present in this type of submission.

Here's what can be extracted and what cannot:

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

Acceptance Criteria (Implied)Reported Device Performance
Substantial equivalence to predicate devices (materials, design)Mechanical testing demonstrated comparable mechanical properties to the predicate devices.
Intended use similar to predicate devicesYes, detailed intended uses are listed and compared for substantial equivalence.
  • Explanation: The "acceptance criteria" for a 510(k) notification are primarily demonstrating substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device. For a mechanical implant, this typically involves showing comparable mechanical strength, fatigue resistance, and biocompatibility. The document explicitly states, "Mechanical testing demonstrated comparable mechanical properties to the predicate devices," implying this was the key performance metric used.

2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance

  • N/A (Not Applicable/Not Provided): This refers to clinical or diagnostic test sets. Since this is a mechanical implant, the "test set" would be physical samples for mechanical testing, not patient data in the context of AI or diagnostic accuracy. The document does not specify the number of physical samples for mechanical testing or their provenance.

3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts

  • N/A: Ground truth for diagnostic accuracy is not relevant here. The evaluation involves mechanical properties and demonstration of substantial equivalence based on engineering principles and regulatory guidelines for implants.

4. Adjudication method for the test set

  • N/A: Adjudication methods are used in studies involving human interpretation or subjective assessments. This is not relevant for the mechanical testing of a spinal implant.

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: This is a mechanical implant, not an AI-driven diagnostic tool. Therefore, MRMC studies are not applicable.

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

  • No: This is a mechanical implant, not an algorithm or AI system.

7. The type of ground truth used

  • N/A (Mechanical Standards/Predicate Device Specifications): The "ground truth" in this context would be adherence to established mechanical testing standards (e.g., ASTM or ISO standards for spinal implants) and comparability to the known performance of predicate devices. There is no biological "ground truth" like pathology or outcomes data in the sense of a diagnostic test.

8. The sample size for the training set

  • N/A: There is no "training set" as this is not an AI or machine learning device.

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

  • N/A: There is no "training set" or "ground truth" in the context of machine learning for this mechanical device.

§ 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;
