Intended Use

When used as a cervical intervertebral body fusion device, the Aleutian implants are indicated for spinal fusion procedures to be used with autogenous bone graft in skeletally mature patients. Cervical IBF implants are intended for use at one level in the cervical spine, from C2 to T1, for the treatment of cervical disc disease (defined as neck pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies). The cervical device is intended to be used in patients who have had six weeks of non-operative treatment.

When used as a lumbar intervertebral body fusion device, the Aleutian implants are indicated for spinal fusion procedures to be used with autogenous bone graft in skeletally mature patients. The lumbar IIBF implants are intended for use at either one level or two contiguous levels in the lumbar spine, from L2 to S1, for the treatment of degenerative disc disease (DDD) with up to Grade I spondylolisthesis. DDD is defined as back pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. The lumbar device is intended to be used in patients who have had six months of non-operative treatment.

When used as vertebral body replacement devices the Aleutian implants are indicated for use in the thoracolumbar spine (T1 to L5) for partial replacement (i.e., partial vertebrectomy) of a diseased vertebral body, resected or excised for the treatment of tumors or trauma/fracture in order to achieve anterior decompression of the spinal cord and neural tissues, and to restore the height of a collapsed vertebral body. The Aleutian implants are designed to restore the biomechanical integrity of the anterior, middle, and posterior spinal column even in the absence of fusion for a prolonged period.

For all the above indications the Aleutian implants are intended to be used with supplemental internal fixation appropriate for the implanted level, including K2M Pedicle Screw and Hook Systems, and K2M Spinal Plate Systems.

Device Description

The Aleutian IBF System consists of a hollow tube structure manufactured from Medical Grade PEEK (Polyetheretherketone). The devices are available in a variety of different sizes and heights to match more closely the patient's anatomy. The ends of the implants have machined teeth which are designed to engage with the vertebral body end plates.

Materials: The devices are manufactured from Medical Grade PEEK (Polyetheretherketone) OPTIMA LTI (Invibio™) per ISO 10993-1 USP Class VI and ASTM F2026. Tantalum beads /rods to be Grade UNS R05200, UNS R05400 according to ASTM F560.

Function: The system functions as an intervertebral body fusion device to provide support and stabilization of the cervical and lumbar segments of the spine.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text describes a 510(k) summary for the Aleutian IBF System, which is an intervertebral body fusion device. The submission focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to previously cleared devices rather than providing detailed acceptance criteria and a study proving those criteria are met for performance.

Here's an analysis based on the provided text:

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

The document does not explicitly state acceptance criteria in terms of clinical performance metrics (e.g., successful fusion rates, complication rates, improvement in patient-reported outcomes). Instead, the acceptance criteria appear to be related to the biomechanical equivalence of the device's design and materials to predicate devices.

Acceptance Criteria (Inferred)Reported Device Performance
Biomechanical performance under compressive and torsional loading (per ASTM F2077) should not result in a new worst-case device compared to predicate devices.Finite element analysis (FEA) was performed to demonstrate that the components added to the Aleutian IBF System in this 510(k) submission would not result in a new worst-case device under both compressive and torsional loading when testing per ASTM F2077. This implies the new components met or exceeded the performance of the predicate device.
Materials of construction must be the same as previously cleared devices and meet established standards.The subject Aleutian IBF System components are made of the same materials (Medical Grade PEEK OPTIMA LTI per ISO 10993-1 USP Class VI and ASTM F2026; Tantalum beads/rods per ASTM F560) as components previously cleared in K082698 and DePuy AcroMed Bengal (K081917).
Dimensions and configurations of components must be similar to predicate devices.The subject Aleutian IBF System components are presented as having "similar dimensions and configurations" to components previously cleared in K082698 and DePuy AcroMed Bengal (K081917).

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

The document does not describe a clinical study with a test set of patients or specimens for performance evaluation. The "study" mentioned is a finite element analysis (FEA), which is a computational simulation. Therefore, there is no sample size in the traditional sense, nor is there data provenance in terms of country or retrospective/prospective collection from patients.

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. Since no clinical test set or human expert review of performance data is described, there's no mention of experts establishing ground truth for a test set. The FEA would have been designed and interpreted by engineers, but their number and qualifications are not provided here.

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

Not applicable. No test set requiring adjudication in the clinical sense is described.

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 not an AI-based device, and no MRMC study or comparative effectiveness study involving human readers is mentioned.

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

This is not an algorithm or AI device. The "standalone" performance, in this context, would be the structural integrity and biomechanical performance of the device itself, which was evaluated via FEA.

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

For the biomechanical evaluation (FEA), the "ground truth" is derived from established engineering principles, material properties (e.g., ASTM F2026 for PEEK, ASTM F560 for Tantalum), and the specified testing standard (ASTM F2077). This is a simulated ground truth based on accepted scientific and engineering methodologies, not biological ground truth from patients.

8. The sample size for the training set

Not applicable. This is not an AI device, so there is no training set. The FEA model is built based on design specifications and material properties, not trained on data.

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

Not applicable. As there is no training set for an AI model, there's no ground truth established for it.

§ 888.3080 Intervertebral body fusion device.

(a)
Identification. An intervertebral body fusion device is an implanted single or multiple component spinal device made from a variety of materials, including titanium and polymers. The device is inserted into the intervertebral body space of the cervical or lumbosacral spine, and is intended for intervertebral body fusion.(b)
Classification. (1) Class II (special controls) for intervertebral body fusion devices that contain bone grafting material. The special control is the FDA guidance document entitled “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Intervertebral Body Fusion Device.” See § 888.1(e) for the availability of this guidance document.(2) Class III (premarket approval) for intervertebral body fusion devices that include any therapeutic biologic (e.g., bone morphogenic protein). Intervertebral body fusion devices that contain any therapeutic biologic require premarket approval.
