The Rebellion is intended for cutting and removing bone, vertebral bodies and tissue in orthopedics, neurosurgery and spine surgery involving the skull or spinal column.
The REBELLION is a Bone Punch and it is available in the length 250 mm, 200 mm and 160 mm with tree different tip sizes (2, 3 and 3 mm). At posterior tube the Rebellion can be connected to the Morpheus Bone and Tissue Trap or to a standard suction system via sterile tubing.
The FDA 510(k) clearance letter for the Rebellion, Phantom Multi-Bite Kerrison Rongeur (K230256) indicates that it is a manual rongeur, a Class II device. The nature of this device (a surgical tool for cutting and removing bone and tissue) means that the acceptance criteria and study information typically associated with AI/ML-powered diagnostic or predictive devices are not applicable.
This device is not an AI/ML product. The document describes a traditional medical device (a surgical instrument). Therefore, many of the requested categories for acceptance criteria and study details (like expert adjudication, MRMC studies, standalone algorithm performance, training set details) are irrelevant.
Here's an interpretation based on the provided document regarding this specific traditional medical device:
1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance:
| Acceptance Criteria Category | Reported Device Performance |
|---|---|
| Technological Characteristics | Demonstrated substantial equivalence (identical or very similar characteristics) to predicate devices (K200768 and K221818) in terms of: - Product Code (HAE) - Class (II) - Regulation # (882.4840) - Classification Name (Manual, Rongeur) - Indication for Use (Identical) - Anatomical location (Skull and spine) - Sterility (Sterile) - Re-Use (No) - Material (Stainless Steel: 420, 304 and 302; Polymer: PVC, ABS, PA6 GF60, TPE, Fluoropolymer) - Patient Contacting Materials (Stainless Steel: 420, 304; Polymer: Fluoropolymer) - Design features (Manual Rongeur) - Bone Removal (Suctional function) - Shaft-length (160, 200 and 250 mm) - Jaw opening (14 mm) - Bite size (2 - 4 mm) - Cutting angulation (90° up-biting) - Packaging (double packed in a PET/PP composite film) - Shelf life (packaging) |
| Material Biocompatibility | Patient-contacting materials (Stainless Steel: 420, 304; Polymer: Fluoropolymer) are the same as predicate devices, implying biocompatibility acceptance. |
| Sterilization & Packaging Integrity | Passed shelf-life validation according to ISO 11607-1 for 5 years for the sterile barrier system (SBS). Predicate device had a 2-year shelf-life, and the subject device improved this to 5 years. |
| Device Functionality/Performance | The subject device does not represent a new worst-case compared to predicate devices (K200768 and K221818), implying comparable cutting and bone/tissue removal functionality. |
2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance: Not applicable. This is a physical surgical instrument, not a data-driven system. Testing would involve physical devices. The non-clinical performance mentioned refers to evaluating the sterile barrier system and comparing material/design characteristics to predicate devices.
3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts: Not applicable. Ground truth, in the context of diagnostic/AI devices, refers to an agreed-upon clinical truth. For a surgical instrument, the "truth" is its ability to perform its intended mechanical function and safety characteristics.
4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set: Not applicable.
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: Not applicable. This is a traditional manual surgical tool, not an AI-assisted device.
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done: Not applicable.
7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.): Not applicable in the conventional sense of AI/diagnostic devices. For this device, "ground truth" relates to the physical and material properties meeting established standards and being equivalent to predicate devices. This is established through engineering and physical tests (material testing, sterilization validation, dimensional checks) rather than clinical "ground truth" derived from patient data.
8. The sample size for the training set: Not applicable. This is a traditional medical device, not an AI/ML product that undergoes training.
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established: Not applicable.

Dear Dimitri Krutsch:
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 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
