AI/ML Overview

The provided text describes a 510(k) premarket notification for the EOS Spinal System, a medical device. It focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices rather than proving the device meets specific acceptance criteria through a clinical study. Therefore, most of the requested information cannot be extracted from this document.

Here's a breakdown of what can and cannot be answered:

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

This document does not specify quantitative acceptance criteria or detailed device performance metrics in the way a clinical study report would. It states that "Performance data per ASTM F1717 were submitted to characterize the subject EOS Spinal System components." However, the actual performance values and the acceptance criteria they were measured against are not provided. The focus is on demonstrating equivalence to predicate devices.

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

Not applicable. This is a submission for a spinal system, not an AI/software device that processes data for diagnosis or prognosis. The "test set" here refers to physical components tested against engineering standards (ASTM F1717), not a dataset of patient information.

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. Ground truth as typically understood in AI/software validation is not relevant for this type of device. The "ground truth" for the performance testing would be the ASTM F1717 standard itself, and the testing would be conducted by engineers or testing laboratories.

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

Not applicable. This is not a study involving human readers or expert consensus on medical images or patient data.

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 document describes a physical medical device (spinal implant system), not an AI-assisted diagnostic tool or software.

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

Not applicable. This is not an algorithm or software.

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

Not applicable. The "ground truth" for the device's performance is adherence to mechanical and material standards (ASTM F1717) for medical implants.

8. The sample size for the training set:

Not applicable. This is a physical device, not an AI/machine learning model.

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

Not applicable. This is a physical device, not an AI/machine learning model.


Summary of available information related to performance:

The document states that the EOS Spinal System's performance data was submitted per ASTM F1717. This standard is "Standard Test Methods for Spinal Implant Constructs in a Vertebrectomy Model." This implies that the device underwent mechanical testing to characterize its stability, strength, and other mechanical properties under simulated surgical conditions.

The submission is a 510(k) premarket notification, which demonstrates substantial equivalence to legally marketed predicate devices, rather than showing that the device meets absolute acceptance criteria through clinical trials. The comparison to predicate devices (4CIS® Vane Spine System (Solco Biomedical Co., Ltd .; K060702) and GSS Pedicle Screw System (GS Medical Co., Ltd .; K053573)) is based on "design, materials, indications and intended use, packaging, labeling, and performance." The implicit "acceptance criteria" here is that the performance of the EOS Spinal System is comparable to, and not worse than, that of the predicate devices under the standards like ASTM F1717.

§ 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.
