Intended Use

The maxMorespine Endoscope when used with recommended third party accessories/components, is intended to visualize the inside of the patient through a cannulated incision for diagnostic and surgical procedures, such as arthroplasty, nucleotomy, discectomy and foraminotomy.

Device Description

The maxMorespine Endoscope is a rigid, multi-channel endoscope comprised of a working channel, rod lens optical system to transmit light and images with irrigation channel(s) and stopcocks. The body is designed of an outer and inner tube of surgical grade stainless steel. The proximal end of the endoscope; eyepiece and light post is adaptable to industry standard endoscopic camera and light systems. The endoscope will be introduced into the patient via a minimally invasive access through a working cannula with various instruments introduced through the Endoscope working channel (maxMorespine System submitted sepatately - K090132).

AI/ML Overview

This document is a 510(k) premarket notification for the maxMorespine Endoscope. It focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices and does not contain information about a study to prove acceptance criteria for device performance. It's a regulatory submission for a medical device cleared in 2009.

Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information, which typically applies to AI/ML software as a medical device (SaMD) or devices with performance claims that require clinical or analytical validation studies.

Here's why the requested information isn't present in the provided document:

  1. Nature of the Device: The maxMorespine Endoscope is a physical, rigid multi-channel endoscope. Its performance is primarily assessed through design specifications, material compatibility, and intended use, rather than complex algorithms requiring validation against ground truth data.
  2. 510(k) Paradigm for this Device Type: For devices like endoscopes, substantial equivalence is usually demonstrated by comparing design, materials, sterilization, and intended use to existing predicate devices already on the market. This often doesn't involve formal performance studies with acceptance criteria in the same way an AI/ML diagnostic tool would.
  3. Absence of Software: The document explicitly states, "No Software is needed for the maxMorespine Endoscope" (page 2), eliminating the need for AI/ML specific validation criteria.
  4. Date of Submission: This submission is from 2009, prior to the widespread adoption and regulatory focus on AI/ML in medical devices that necessitated the detailed performance study information you're requesting.

In summary, the provided document does not contain any of the requested information regarding acceptance criteria or a study proving device performance because it pertains to a traditional medical device (an endoscope) for which such studies are typically not required for 510(k) clearance, particularly in 2009, and it has no AI/ML component.

1.10 Device Description / Technology Characteristics

The maxMorespine Endoscope is a rigid, multi-channel endoscope comprised of a working channel, rod lens optical system to transmit light and images with irrigation channel(s) and stopcocks. The body is designed of an outer and inner tube of surgical grade stainless steel. The proximal end of the endoscope; eyepiece and light post is adaptable to industry standard endoscopic camera and light systems. The endoscope will be introduced into the patient via a minimally invasive access through a working cannula with various instruments introduced through the Endoscope working channel (maxMorespine System submitted sepatately - K090132).

Substantial Equivalence 1.11

The maxMorespine TOM Endoscope is substantially equivalent in purpose, design, materials and function to the following marketed products:

  • Joimax THESSYS Multiscope (K051827)
  • RIchard Wolf Yeung Endoscopic Spine System (K973405)
  • Arthro Kinetics' Endoscopic Spine System (K061246)

1.12 Sterilization

maxMorespine Endoscopes will be sold non-sterile, to be sterilized prior to each procedure by the user. Sterilization instructions are provided in the Instructions for Use (see Section 2.4)

1.13 Software

No Software is needed for the maxMorespine Endoscope

1.14 Conclusion

The specifications and intended use of the maxMorespine Endoscope is the same as those of the claimed predicate devices. There are no significant differences in design or manufacturing materials between the maxMorespine Endoscope and predicate devices. In all aspects, the maxMorespine Endoscope is substantially equivalent to products actively marketed as demonstrated in Predicate Devices Comparison Chart (see section 4.1)
