Intended Use

The Medtronic Midas Rex MR7 System is a pneumatically operated surgical instrument system. The pneumatic motors provide power to operate removable rotating surgical cutting tools and their accessories intended for use in neurosurgery, including craniotomy and spinal surgery; as well as Ear Nose and Throat (ENT), orthopedic, and general surgical applications including maxillofacial, craniofacial and sternotomy surgeries.

Device Description

The Midas Rex MR7 Pneumatic High Speed System includes a pneumatic motor; either the MR7 option which is foot controlled or the MR7t option which is finger controlled. A coaxial hose system, designed with an inner high-pressure supply hose located within an exhaust hose, connects the motor to the foot controller. One end of the coaxial hose system is permanently attached to the motor. The inner high-pressure hose supplies the compressed gas to the internal components of the motor. The outer hose captures the exhausted gas from the internal components of the motor and transports this exhaust gas to the diffuser section of the lubricant diffuser cartridge located on the foot control end of the hose at floor level. This self-contained lubricant/diffuser system consists of two components; a permanently attached receptor base on the foot control connector section of the hose and a disposable lubricant/diffuser cartridge. The cartridge provides two functions; the lubrication for the internal components of the motor and the capture of the exhausted gas from the motor. the foot or finger controller is used to activate the flow of compressed air or nitrogen (gas) into the pneumatic motor and is connected to the pressure regulator of the gas supply system through the regulator hose. The Midas Rex MR7 Pneumatic High Speed System is intended to be used with all existing Midas Rex Legend attachments and dissecting tools previously cleared through K020069.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text describes the Medtronic Midas Rex MR7 Pneumatic High Speed System, a pneumatically operated surgical instrument system. The submission (K090112) is a 510(k) summary, which focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device rather than presenting a study with specific acceptance criteria and performance metrics in the way one might see for a diagnostic AI device.

Therefore, the requested information elements related to specific performance criteria, ground truth, sample sizes for training/testing, expert adjudication, and MRMC studies, which are typical for AI/diagnostic device evaluations, are not applicable in this context.

This document focuses on regulatory approval through substantial equivalence based on bench testing.

Here's the relevant information based on the provided text:

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

Acceptance CriteriaReported Device Performance
Substantial Equivalence to Predicate Device (Midas Rex Legend System K020069) based on design, function, intended use, and fundamental scientific technology."Laboratory bench testing conducted on the Midas Rex MR7 System demonstrates substantially equivalent performance characteristics to the predicate Midas Rex Legend System cleared under K020069."

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

This information is not provided in the document. The testing mentioned is "laboratory bench testing," which typically involves engineering-focused stress, durability, and functional tests rather than data-driven performance metrics on a "test set" of patient data.

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)

This information is not applicable as the evaluation is based on bench testing for substantial equivalence of a surgical instrument, not on expert-adjudicated performance for a diagnostic device.

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

This information is not applicable for the reasons stated above.

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

An MRMC study is not applicable as this is a surgical instrument, not an AI-powered diagnostic device.

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

This is not applicable as this is a surgical instrument, not an algorithm.

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

The "ground truth" in this context would be the functional specifications and performance characteristics of the predicate device. The MR7 system was tested to demonstrate that its performance characteristics were "substantially equivalent" to these established characteristics.

8. The sample size for the training set

This is not applicable as this is a physical medical device, not an AI/algorithm that requires a training set.

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

This is not applicable for the reasons stated above.

Predicate Device Identification: The Medtronic Midas Rex MR7 System is substantially equivalent to the following predicate device:

  • Midas Rex Legend System K020069 .
    Comparison to Predicate Device: The Midas Rex MR7 System is similar in device design, function, intended use and fundamental scientific technology to the previously cleared Midas Rex Legend System (K020069). It should be noted that the indications for use remain identical to those cleared under K020069.

Test Data: Laboratory bench testing conducted on the Midas Rex MR7 System demonstrates substantially equivalent performance characteristics to the predicate Midas Rex Legend System cleared under K020069.

Summary: Based upon the laboratory bench test summaries, intended use, and the successful completion of design control activities; the Midas Rex MR7 System has been shown to be substantially equivalent to currently marketed predicate devices.

Dear Mr. Henderson:

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 commerce prior 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.
