Intended Use

The Coral™ Spinal System is a non-cervical spinal fixation device intended for use as a posterior pedicle screw fixation system, a posterior non-pedicle screw fixation system, or as an anterolateral fixation system. Pedicle screw fixation is limited to skeletally mature patients. The device is indicated as an adjunct to fusion for the following indications: degenerative disc disease (defined as discogenic back pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies), spondylolisthesis, trauma (i.e., fracture or dislocation), spinal stenosis, deformities or curvatures (i.e., scoliosis, kyphosis, and/or lordosis), tumor, pseudoarthrosis, and failed previous fusion.

Device Description

The purpose of this submission is the addition of the Malibu adjustable cross connector from SeaSpine Inc. to the Coral™ Spinal System. Cross connectors are used to connect the bi-lateral rods of a spinal construct to add torsional rigidity. The cross connectors are available in two styles, straight and contoured, the different styles offer the surgeon options intraoperatively. The straight cross connector offers the surgeon a low profile compared to the surrounding construct. The contoured cross connector offers surgeons an option that is slightly higher in profile but provides additional clearance between the cross connector and the spinal construct.

AI/ML Overview

The information provided describes a medical device submission (K120047) for the Coral™ Spinal System and its expansion with the Malibu adjustable cross connector. It focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device through engineering analysis and mechanical testing, rather than presenting a study of device performance against specific clinical acceptance criteria.

Therefore, many of the requested categories for acceptance criteria and the study proving adherence cannot be directly addressed from the provided text, as they pertain to clinical or functional performance. The document primarily describes mechanical performance tests to establish substantial equivalence.

Here's the breakdown based on the provided text, with "N/A" for information not present in the document:

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

Acceptance Criteria (Mechanical Performance)Reported Device Performance (Conclusion)
Static compression bending per ASTM F-1717The Malibu adjustable cross connector performs "as well or better than" the predicate device in terms of safety and effectiveness, based on non-clinical tests.
Static torsion per ASTM F-1717The Malibu adjustable cross connector performs "as well or better than" the predicate device in terms of safety and effectiveness, based on non-clinical tests.
Dynamic compression bending with run out per ASTM F-1717The Malibu adjustable cross connector performs "as well or better than" the predicate device in terms of safety and effectiveness, based on non-clinical tests.

2. Sample sized used for the test set and the data provenance

  • Sample Size: Not specified for the mechanical tests.
  • Data Provenance: N/A (mechanical tests, not clinical data)

3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts

  • N/A (Ground truth is not relevant for mechanical performance testing establishing substantial equivalence.)

4. Adjudication method for the test set

  • N/A (Adjudication is not relevant for mechanical performance testing establishing substantial equivalence.)

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

  • MRMC Study: No.
  • Effect Size: N/A (This device is a spinal fixation system, not an AI-assisted diagnostic tool.)

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

  • No. (This device is a spinal fixation system, not an algorithm.)

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

  • The "ground truth" for the device's performance is its ability to meet the mechanical standards outlined in ASTM F-1717. This is based on engineering and physical testing standards, not clinical ground truth like pathology or expert consensus.

8. The sample size for the training set

  • N/A (This pertains to mechanical testing and substantial equivalence, not a machine learning model's training set.)

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

  • N/A (Not applicable for this type of submission.)

§ 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.
(iii) Device components must be demonstrated to be biocompatible.
(iv) Validation testing must demonstrate the cleanliness and sterility of, or the ability to clean and sterilize, the device components and device-specific instruments.
(v) Labeling must include the following:
(A) A clear description of the technological features of the device including identification of device materials and the principles of device operation;
(B) Intended use and indications for use, including levels of fixation;
(C) Identification of magnetic resonance (MR) compatibility status;
(D) Cleaning and sterilization instructions for devices and instruments that are provided non-sterile to the end user; and
(E) Detailed instructions of each surgical step, including device removal.
(3) Class II (special controls), when a semi-rigid system is intended to provide immobilization and stabilization of spinal segments in the thoracic, lumbar, and sacral spine as an adjunct to fusion for any indication. In addition to complying with the special controls in paragraphs (b)(2)(i) through (v) of this section, these pedicle screw systems must comply with the following special controls:
(i) Demonstration that clinical performance characteristics of the device support the intended use of the product, including assessment of fusion compared to a clinically acceptable fusion rate.
(ii) Semi-rigid systems marketed prior to the effective date of this reclassification must submit an amendment to their previously cleared premarket notification (510(k)) demonstrating compliance with the special controls in paragraphs (b)(2)(i) through (v) and paragraph (b)(3)(i) of this section.
