Intended Use

The GEO Structure is indicated for use in the thoracolumbar spine (i.e., T1 to L5) to replace a diseased vertebral body resected or excised for the treatment of tumors in order to achieve anterior decompression of the spinal cord and neural tissues, and to restore the height of a collapsed vertebral body. The GEO Structure is also indicated for treating fractures of the thoracic and lumbar spine. The GEO Structure is designed to restore the biomechanical integrity of the anterior, middle and posterior spinal column even in the absence of fusion for a prolonged period.

Device Description

The GEO Structure is a vertebral body replacement device manufactured from surgical implant grade titanium alloy as described by ASTM F-1108 (Ti 6Al 4V). The implant has a satin finish surface and is available in various shapes and sizes. The GEO Structure is provided either sterile or nonsterile.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text is a 510(k) summary for the GEO Structure, a vertebral body replacement device. It primarily focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device based on indications for use, intended use, materials, and biomechanical performance.

Crucially, this document does NOT contain information about specific acceptance criteria, device performance metrics, or study details such as sample sizes, ground truth establishment, or expert involvement as requested in the prompt.

The document states: "Based on the same indications for use, intended use, similarity in materials of construction and equivalent biomechanical performance, the GEO Structure is considered substantially equivalent to the legally marketed predicate device." This indicates that the regulatory approval was based on demonstrating equivalence, not on a new clinical study with specific performance metrics against pre-defined acceptance criteria as would be the case for novel AI/software devices or those requiring new clinical evidence.

Therefore, I cannot populate the table or answer the specific questions related to acceptance criteria, study details, and performance metrics because that information is not present in the provided 510(k) summary. These summaries typically do not contain the detailed study results that would satisfy the prompt's requirements.

Dear Ms. Spielberger:

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 for abo band in 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. 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.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to such 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); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.

§ 888.3060 Spinal intervertebral body fixation orthosis.

(a)
Identification. A spinal intervertebral body fixation orthosis is a device intended to be implanted made of titanium. It consists of various vertebral plates that are punched into each of a series of vertebral bodies. An eye-type screw is inserted in a hole in the center of each of the plates. A braided cable is threaded through each eye-type screw. The cable is tightened with a tension device and it is fastened or crimped at each eye-type screw. The device is used to apply force to a series of vertebrae to correct “sway back,” scoliosis (lateral curvature of the spine), or other conditions.(b)
Classification. Class II.
