The purpose of this 510(k) submission is to add modified bone screws to the TSRH® Spina] System.
The provided document is a 510(k) summary for the TSRH® Spinal System, specifically an amendment to add modified bone screws. It primarily focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to previously cleared predicate devices rather than presenting a de novo study with acceptance criteria and device performance results.
Therefore, most of the requested information cannot be extracted from this document. Here's what can be inferred or stated as not applicable:
1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance
- Not Applicable. This document is a 510(k) summary for substantial equivalence, not a clinical study report or a performance validation report against specific acceptance criteria. The device performance is implicitly demonstrated through the substantial equivalence to predicate devices, which are already deemed safe and effective.
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. No test set, clinical data, or patient data (retrospective or prospective) is mentioned for this 510(k) submission. The submission is based on engineering documentation and comparison to predicates.
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. No test set requiring ground truth establishment by experts is mentioned.
4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set
- Not Applicable. No test set or ground truth adjudication method is mentioned.
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
- Not Applicable. This is a spinal implant device, not an AI-assisted diagnostic device. Therefore, no MRMC study or AI performance evaluation is relevant or mentioned.
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the loop performance) was done
- Not Applicable. This is a spinal implant device, not an algorithm.
7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc)
- Not Applicable. No clinical ground truth data is presented. The "ground truth" for a substantial equivalence determination often refers to the predicate device's established safety and effectiveness.
8. The sample size for the training set
- Not Applicable. This document does not describe an AI/ML device that requires a training set.
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established
- Not Applicable. As there is no training set mentioned, there is no ground truth establishment for it.
Summary based on the provided document:
The 510(k) summary demonstrates substantial equivalence of the modified bone screws for the TSRH® Spinal System to legally marketed predicate devices. This approach, common for medical devices, means that the new device shares fundamental technological characteristics and indications for use with devices already cleared by the FDA, implying similar safety and effectiveness without requiring new clinical studies to establish acceptance criteria and performance from scratch.
- Acceptance Criteria & Device Performance: Not explicitly stated as this is a substantial equivalence submission. The implicit acceptance criteria is that the modified screws are as safe and effective as the predicate devices (K011067, K020699, K021170, K022778, K041282, K052054, and K062807). Performance is considered equivalent to these predicates based on documentation, including a risk analysis.
- Study Type: Substantial Equivalence Comparison.
- Data Provenance/Sample Size/Experts/Adjudication/MRMC/Standalone Performance/Ground Truth (for test or training sets): Not applicable or not detailed in this 510(k) summary, as the submission focuses on engineering documentation and comparison to predicate devices, rather than a de novo clinical study with these elements.

§ 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.
