The Minuteman devices are available in multiple sizes to accommodate varying patient anatomy. The Minuteman devices are made from Ti6A14V and Ti6A14V ELI. The HA versions of the Minuteman devices have an additional hydroxyapatite coating on the distal regions of the device.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text is a 510(k) summary for the Spinal Simplicity Minuteman family of implants. It focuses on updating the Indications for Use for these devices. The document explicitly states that no technological, engineering, performance, or material changes have been made to the devices, and no performance bench testing data has been submitted in this particular 510(k) submission because the changes are primarily to the Indications for Use.

Therefore, the information required to populate the acceptance criteria and study details for device performance as typically associated with a new device or significant modification is largely absent or explicitly stated as not applicable in this summary.

However, the document does mention "Clinical data were provided to demonstrate satisfactory clinical and radiological outcomes to support the modified Indications for Use." This implies that a study was conducted to support the clinical effectiveness for the updated indications, but the detailed methodology and results of that study are not included in this 510(k) summary.

Based on the provided text, here is the information:

A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance:
- Acceptance Criteria for Device Performance: Not explicitly stated in this document as the submission focuses on updated Indications for Use rather than new device performance evaluation. The document indicates "no performance bench testing data has been submitted."
- Reported Device Performance: Not explicitly reported in terms of specific metrics like sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, etc., as this 510(k) is not for a new device or performance claim change. The core claim is that since no changes were made to the device itself, its performance remains substantially equivalent to the previously cleared predicate devices.
Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g., country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective):
- Sample Size for Test Set: Not specified in the provided text. The document only mentions "Clinical data were provided."
- Data Provenance: Not specified in the provided text.
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 specified in the provided text.
Adjudication method (e.g., 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set:
- Not specified in the provided text.
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 is not applicable. The device is a spinal fusion plate, not an AI or imaging diagnostic device.
If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done:
- This is not applicable. The device is a spinal fusion plate, a physical implant, not an algorithm.
The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.):
- The document mentions "satisfactory clinical and radiological outcomes." This suggests that the ground truth would be based on clinical outcomes relevant to spinal fusion (e.g., fusion rates, pain reduction, functional improvement) and radiological assessment of fusion, but the specific methodologies are not detailed.
The sample size for the training set:
- Not applicable/not specified. The device is a physical implant, not a machine learning model requiring a training set in the typical sense. The "clinical data" mentioned would likely be for validation/support.
How the ground truth for the training set was established:
- Not applicable.

Dear Mr. Rogers:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database located at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal

{1}------------------------------------------------

statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803) for devices or postmarketing safety reporting (21 CFR 4, Subpart B) for combination products (see https://www.fda.gov/combination-products/guidance-regulatory-information/postmarketing-safety-reportingcombination-products); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820) for devices or current good manufacturing practices (21 CFR 4, Subpart A) for combination products; and, if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.

Technological Characteristics:

There are no changes to the technological characteristics from the previously cleared versions of each Minuteman device. The only differences are changes to the Indications for Use.

Performance Data:

There are no changes to the functional characteristics from the previously cleared versions of each Minuteman device. The only differences are changes to the Indications for Use. Therefore, no performance bench testing data has been submitted.

Clinical Data:

Clinical data were provided to demonstrate satisfactory clinical and radiological outcomes to support the modified Indications for Use.

Substantial Equivalence:

The Spinal Simplicity Minuteman family of implants subject to this 510(k) notice are the same as the predicate devices cleared under K140046, K151741, K163428, K200066, K211880, and K212781. The only difference is updated Indications for Use. The provided clinical data and information from the previous 510(k) applications support the conclusion that the subject devices with updated Indications for Use are substantially equivalent to the previously cleared predicate devices.

Conclusions:

The information submitted by Spinal Simplicity in this premarket notification demonstrates that the Minuteman implants perform as intended and are substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.

Regulation Number and Section

§ 888.3050 Spinal interlaminal fixation orthosis.

(a)
Identification. A spinal interlaminal fixation orthosis is a device intended to be implanted made of an alloy, such as stainless steel, that consists of various hooks and a posteriorly placed compression or distraction rod. The device is implanted, usually across three adjacent vertebrae, to straighten and immobilize the spine to allow bone grafts to unite and fuse the vertebrae together. The device is used primarily in the treatment of scoliosis (a lateral curvature of the spine), but it also may be used in the treatment of fracture or dislocation of the spine, grades 3 and 4 of spondylolisthesis (a dislocation of the spinal column), and lower back syndrome.(b)
Classification. Class II.
