AI/ML Overview

This document is a 510(k) summary for a medical device called the CD HORIZON® Spinal System. It is an application for substantial equivalence to an already marketed device, not a study performing device performance against defined acceptance criteria. Therefore, most of the requested information regarding acceptance criteria and a study proving device performance is not applicable to this document.

However, I can extract the relevant information that is present:

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance:

This document does not define specific performance acceptance criteria for the device itself or report on device performance against such criteria. The purpose of a 510(k) is to demonstrate substantial equivalence to a previously legally marketed device, not to prove pre-defined performance metrics.

2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance:

Not applicable. This document is a 510(k) submission, demonstrating substantial equivalence through comparison to existing predicate devices, not reporting on a study with a test set. There are no test sets or data provenance mentioned.

3. Number of Experts Used to Establish Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications:

Not applicable. This document does not involve establishing ground truth through expert review for a test set.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set:

Not applicable. There is no test set or adjudication method described.

5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study Was Done:

No. This document does not describe an MRMC comparative effectiveness study. It's a 510(k) submission focused on substantial equivalence.

6. If a Standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) Was Done:

Not applicable. This device is a physical spinal implant system, not a software algorithm.

7. Type of Ground Truth Used:

Not applicable. This document does not concern ground truth in the context of a validation study for device performance. It relies on the regulatory standard of "substantial equivalence" to a predicate device.

8. Sample Size for the Training Set:

Not applicable. This document is a 510(k) submission for a physical device, not related to machine learning or AI with training sets.

9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established:

Not applicable. As above, this document does not involve a training set.

In summary, the provided document is a regulatory submission (510(k)) for a medical device seeking market clearance through substantial equivalence, not a study detailing device performance against specific acceptance criteria.

The key assertion of this document is:

  • Substantial Equivalence: The document states, "Documentation was provided which demonstrated the CD HORIZON® Spinal System to be substantially equivalent to itself." This implies that the current submission is for an modification (addition of a 6.0mm rod and associated components) to an already cleared CD HORIZON® Spinal System, and the modified system is substantially equivalent to the original cleared system.

§ 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;
