AI/ML Overview

The provided text describes a 510(k) summary for the Range Spinal System, a medical device for spinal fixation. It aims to demonstrate substantial equivalence to predicate devices, focusing on the addition of titanium bilateral contoured unit rods.

Here's an analysis of the acceptance criteria and study information:

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

Acceptance Criterion	Reported Device Performance
Substantial Equivalence in Design, Function, Material, and Intended Use	The Range Spinal System was found to be "substantially the same as" predicate devices in design features and sizing of components.
Mechanical Performance (Static Compression, Static Torsion, Dynamic Compression)	The modified implants were compared to previously tested constructs in static compression, static torsion, and dynamic compression in accordance with ASTM F1717. An engineering rationale determined that the proposed implants "do not represent a new worst case."
No Adverse Affect on Use	"There are no significant differences between the Range Spinal Systems currently being marketed which would adversely affect the use of the product."

2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance

The document does not specify a sample size for a "test set" in the context of clinical data. The performance comparison refers to mechanical testing of implants. There's no mention of human subject data, and therefore no provenance information (e.g., country of origin, retrospective/prospective).

3. Number of Experts Used to Establish Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications of Those Experts

This information is not applicable as the summary focuses on mechanical and design equivalence, not clinical performance requiring expert ground truth or assessment of diagnostic accuracy.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

This information is not applicable for the same reasons as point 3.

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

This information is not applicable. This submission is for a spinal fixation system, a physical implant, not an AI-assisted diagnostic device.

6. If a Standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) Was Done

This information is not applicable. This is not an algorithm or AI-based device.

7. The Type of Ground Truth Used

The "ground truth" for this device appears to be:

Predicate Device Performance: The established performance and safety of the previously cleared K2M Range Spinal System and Synthes USS, Click'X, VAS. Dual -Opening, Small Stature (K022949).
ASTM F1717 Standards: These provide the engineering standards for testing spinal fixation devices, against which the modified implants were evaluated.
Engineering Rationale: An engineering assessment determining that the changes do not introduce a "new worst case."

8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

This information is not applicable. There is no "training set" in the context of mechanical device testing or clinical data for an implant.

9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established

This information is not applicable for the same reasons as point 8.

Study That Proves the Device Meets the Acceptance Criteria:

The study that proves the device meets the acceptance criteria is an engineering and mechanical testing comparison study.

Methodology: The "modified implants were compared to constructs previously tested in static compression, static torsion, and dynamic compression in accordance with ASTM F1717."
Conclusion: Based on this comparison, an "engineering rationale determined that the proposed implants do not represent a new worst case" and were "therefore determined to be substantially equivalent to the predicate devices."

In essence, the study was a benchtop mechanical performance evaluation demonstrating that the updated components of the Range Spinal System (specifically the bilateral contoured unit rods) meet the established mechanical performance standards and do not introduce new risks compared to the previously cleared predicate devices. The acceptance criteria were met by showing equivalence in mechanical properties to previously cleared devices under standardized test conditions.

Regulation Number and Section

§ 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;
