Intended Use

The SpineFrontier Lumbar Interbody Fusion Device System (Dorado IBC, Dorado PLIFT, Dorado ELIFT, Arena-L, Dorado TILT, Dorado TLIFT, Dorado Wide, and Ursa S-LIFT) is intended for intervertebral body fusion of the spine of skeletally mature patients, using autogenous bone graft to facilitate fusion. The device is indicated for use in patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) at one or two contiguous spinal levels from L2-S1. These DDD patients may also have up to Grade I spondylolisthesis or retrolisthesis at the involved level(s).

Degenerative disc disease is defined as discogenic back pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history or radiographic studies. These patients should be skeletally mature and have had six months of non-operative treatment.

The SpineFrontier Lumbar Intervertebral Body Fusion Device System is intended to be used with supplemental spinal fixation system(s) cleared for use in the lumbar spine.

Device Description

The SpineFrontier Ti-Coated Lumbar Interbody Fusion Device System is a spinal intervertebral body fusion device system intended for intervertebral body fusion of the spine of skeletally mature patients, using autogenous bone graft to facilitate fusion. The system is comprised of devices made of titanium coated PEEK Optima® LT1, with varying widths, lengths, and heights to fit the anatomical needs of patients. The devices have raised contours on the superior and inferior surfaces that will resist device movement following implant.

The purpose of this submission is the addition of a CP-Ti coating on a previously cleared lumbar intervertebral fusion device.

AI/ML Overview

The provided document describes a 510(k) premarket notification for the SpineFrontier Lumbar Interbody Fusion Device System. This document is a regulatory submission for a medical device and, as such, does not contain information about the performance of an AI/ML powered device, nor does it include a study that proves a device meets acceptance criteria in the context of an AI/ML algorithm.

Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information regarding acceptance criteria, reported device performance, sample sizes, expert qualifications, adjudication methods, MRMC studies, standalone performance, or training set details.

The document focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to legally marketed predicate devices through a comparison of technological characteristics and non-clinical mechanical performance testing. The 'Performance Data' section lists various ASTM standards used for mechanical testing of the device and its coating, but these are related to the physical properties and durability of the implantable device, not the performance of an AI/ML algorithm.

§ 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.
(c)
Date premarket approval application (PMA) or notice of product development protocol (PDP) is required. Devices described in paragraph (b)(2) of this section shall have an approved PMA or a declared completed PDP in effect before being placed in commercial distribution.
