Intended Use

The InDiscal Aspiration Device and Accessories are intended for aspiration of disc material during percutaneous discectomies in the lumbar, thoracic, and cervical regions of the spine.

Device Description

The InDiscal™ Aspiration Device is a sterile, single-use device that is inserted through the InDiscal™ Aspiration Introducer into the patient to aspirate tissue disc material. The device consists of a handle, coring needle with sheath, storage chamber and activation switch. The InDiscal™ Aspiration accessories include the InDiscal™ Aspiration Introducer, InDiscal™ Aspiration Plug, InDiscal™ Aspiration Cap, InDiscal™ Aspiration Sheath

AI/ML Overview

This is a 510(k) summary for a medical device called the "InDiscal™ Aspiration Kit" which includes the "InDiscal™ Aspiration Device" and its accessories. This document is a premarket notification to the FDA, asserting substantial equivalence to previously cleared devices. It does not contain a study demonstrating device performance against specific acceptance criteria in a clinical setting.

Therefore, I cannot provide the information requested about acceptance criteria and a study proving the device meets them, as this type of performance data is not typically included or required in a 510(k) summary for these types of devices. The 510(k) process primarily relies on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device rather than presenting new clinical performance data against pre-defined acceptance criteria relevant to efficacy or accuracy in the way an AI/CADe device would.

The provided document details:

  • Device Name: InDiscal™ Aspiration Kit (includes various aspiration components).
  • Intended Use: Aspiration of disc material during percutaneous discectomies in the lumbar, thoracic, and cervical regions of the spine.
  • Predicate Devices: Several "Nucleotome Probe" devices manufactured by Surgical Dynamics.
  • Substantial Equivalence Claim: The intended use and method of tissue removal (mechanical aspiration) are substantially equivalent to the predicate Nucleotome probes.

For devices like this, acceptance criteria would typically pertain to engineering specifications, biocompatibility, sterilization, and mechanical performance (e.g., aspiration efficiency in a lab setting), rather than clinical accuracy or effectiveness studies with human readers or AI.

If this were a submission for an AI/CADe device, the requested information would be critical. However, for this traditional medical device 510(k), such a study is not presented.

Dear Ms. Khakhar:

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 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
