Intended Use

The Vu c.POD Intervertebral Body Fusion Device is indicated for anterior cervical interbody fusion procedures in skeletally mature patients with cervical degenerative disc disease (DDD) at one level from C2-C3 to C7-T1. Cervical degenerative disc disease is defined as neck pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies.

The Vu c.POD implants are to be used with autograft bone graft and/or allogeneic bone graft composed of cancellous and/ or corticocancellous bone and implanted via an open, anterior approach. The cervical device is to be used in patients who have had six weeks of non-operative treatment. The Vu c.POD Intervertebral Body Fusion Device is intended for use with supplemental internal fixation systems.

The Complete Cervical Intervertebral Body Fusion Device is indicated for anterior cervical interbody fusion procedures in skeletally mature patients with cervical disc disease at one level from the C2-C3 disc to the C7-T1 disc. Cervical disc disease is defined as neck pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies.

The Complete Cervical implants are to be used with autograft and/or allogeneic bone graft composed of cancellous and/or corticocancellous bone and implanted via an anterior approach. The cervical device is to be used in patients who have had six (6) weeks of non-operative treatment. The cervical device is to be used with two titanium alloy screws which accompany the implant.

Zuma-C is a stand-alone anterior cervical interbody fusion device intended for use as an adjunct to fusion at one level (C3-C7) in skeletally mature patients with degenerative disc disease (defined as discogenic neck pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies). Patients should have received at least six weeks of non-operative treatment prior to treatment with the device. Zuma-C is to be used with autograft bone graft and/or allogeneic bone graft composed of cancellous and/or corticocancellous bone and implanted via an open, anterior approach. Zuma-C is intended to be used with the bone screw fixation provided and requires no additional fixation.

Device Description

The SeaSpine Vu c-POD, Complete Cervical, and Zuma-C Systems are intervertebral fusion devices intended to act as a disc spacer and hold bone graft to promote fusion in the cervical spine. All three system spacers are manufactured from PEEK (ASTM F2026), with tantalum (ASTM F560) radiographic markers. The Complete Cervical spacers also include titanium alloy and screws (ASTM F136), while Zuma-C includes titanium screws, as well as plates and set screws (ASTM F136).

Each system spacer is generally box-shaped with a central canal for receiving autograft bone graft material and/or allogeneic bone graft composed of cancellous and/or corticocancellous bone. The systems are implanted via an anterior approach.

The instruments included with each system facilitate the placement and adjustment of the interbody spacers, and removal if necessary. The instruments are placed in trays and caddies for storage, protection, and organization prior to and during the steam sterilization process.

AI/ML Overview

The provided document is a 510(k) Premarket Notification from the FDA regarding intervertebral body fusion devices. It focuses on the substantial equivalence of the new devices (SeaSpine Vu cPOD, Zuma-C, Complete Cervical) to previously marketed predicate devices.

Crucially, this document explicitly states that "determination of substantial equivalence is not based on an assessment of clinical performance data" and that "no mechanical testing was performed for the Vu c Pod and Complete Cervical systems," with Zuma-C relying on prior testing.

Therefore, based on the information provided in this document, it is not possible to outline acceptance criteria and a study that proves the device meets those criteria in the context of clinical performance or AI/software-based device evaluation. The submission primarily relies on the physical and material equivalence to existing devices.

The questions you've asked (about acceptance criteria for performance, sample sizes, expert ground truth, adjudication, MRMC studies, standalone performance, training sets, etc.) are typical for the evaluation of medical devices that involve algorithms, AI, or clinical performance studies (e.g., diagnostic devices, imaging analysis software). This document does not describe such a study.

In summary, the document states:

  • No clinical testing was performed for this submission.
  • Substantial equivalence is not based on an assessment of clinical performance data.
  • Mechanical testing was not performed for two of the devices, and for the third, previous testing was deemed sufficient.

Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information from this document. If you have a document that describes the clinical or performance study of an AI-powered or diagnostic medical device, I would be happy to analyze it for the details you've requested.

Summary of Technological Characteristics

The SeaSpine Vu c-POD, Complete Cervical, and Zuma-C Systems and the predicate devices have the same operational principle; they act as a disc spacer and hold bone graft to promote fusion in the cervical spine. The SeaSpine Vu c POD, Complete Cervical, and Zuma-C Systems are substantially equivalent to the cited predicate devices in areas including intended use/indications for use, technological characteristics (operating principle, design, materials, sterility, manufacturing, etc.) and performance (mechanical safety).

Non-Clinical Testing

There are no changes to the design, materials, specifications or manufacture of the implants, therefore no mechanical testing was performed for the Vu c Pod and Complete Cervical systems.

Engineering analysis verified that the device modifications in the Zuma-C did not create any new worst cases with respect to mechanical performance. Conclusions from previously performed mechancial testing per ASTM F2077 and F2267 remain valid.

Clinical Testing

Not applicable; determination of substantial equivalence is not based on an assessment of clinical performance data.

Conclusions

The submitted data demonstrate that the SeaSpine Vu c.POD. Complete Cervical, and Zuma-C Systems are substantially equivalent to the cited legally marketed predicate devices
