Intended Use

The OptiMesh Multiplanar Expandable Interbody Fusion System is indicated for use as an adjunct to fusion in an intervertebral body fusion at one level in the lumbar spine from L2 to S1 in skeletally mature patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) with up to Grade I spondylolisthesis at the involved level. DDD is defined as discogenic back pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by patient history, physical examination, and radios. Eligible patients shall have undergone six (6) months of conservative (non-operative) care. The OptiMesh device with compatible allograft, or a bone void filler as cleared by FDA for use in intervertebral body fusion to facilitate fusion, is intended for use with supplemental posterior fixation systems intended for use in the lumbar spine.

AFT is intended for use as a bone void filler in the extremities, spine, intervertebral disc space, and pelvis for voids or gaps that are not intrinsic to the stability of the bony structure. AFT is indicated for use in the treatment of osseous defects caused by surgery or traumatic injury. When used in intervertebral body fusion procedures, AFT must be used on its own with an intervertebral body graff containment device cleared by FDA for use with a bone void filler.

Device Description

The OptiMesh Multiplanar Expandable Interbody Fusion System is an intervertebral body graft containment device that is a non-rigid, implanted spinal device that is designed to contain bone graft within its internal cavity. The device is inserted into the intervertebral body space of the spine and is intended as an adjunct to intervertebral body fusion.

AFT Allograft Filler Tube is composed of human demineralized bone matrix, human nondemineralized bone, and sodium hyaluronate. All components of AFT are resorbable. AFT is aseptically processed and provided pre-loaded into a disposable delivery tube.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text describes a 510(k) premarket notification for the "OptiMesh Multiplanar Expandable Interbody Fusion System" with the addition of "AFT Allograft Filler Tube" as a compatible allograft. It outlines the purpose of the submission, device descriptions, indications for use, technological characteristics, and non-clinical/clinical testing. However, the document does not provide specific acceptance criteria or detailed study results in the format requested.

The FDA 510(k) clearance process focuses on demonstrating "substantial equivalence" to a legally marketed predicate device, rather than proving a device meets specific, quantifiable acceptance criteria with a detailed study report. The non-clinical and clinical data presented here are used to support this claim of substantial equivalence.

Based on the provided text, I can infer some aspects and highlight what is not present:

Inferred Information:

  • Acceptance Criteria (Implied): The implied acceptance criteria revolve around demonstrating that the OptiMesh device with AFT performs comparably to the predicate device and the reference devices in terms of mechanical performance and biological impact, without introducing new safety or effectiveness concerns. This means that:
    • Mechanical performance of OptiMesh + AFT should be "as intended" and comparable to the reference device and ISO 23089-2 data.
    • Biological impact of AFT should be comparable to the reference bone graft.
    • Biocompatibility, pyrogenicity/endotoxin, sterilization, packaging, and shelf-life should be acceptable and comparable.
    • The risk profile should not be altered, and new safety/effectiveness issues should not arise.
  • Study Proving Acceptance Criteria: The study used to demonstrate this is primarily a critical engineering and clinical comparison to a bone graft used in a prospective, multi-center, non-randomized, FDA and IRB approved performance goal clinical investigation.

Information NOT present explicitly in the document:

  • Specific quantifications of acceptance criteria.
  • A table of acceptance criteria and reported device performance with numerical values.
  • Sample sizes used for the test set (e.g., number of patients/data points in the clinical investigation for comparison).
  • Data provenance (country of origin, retrospective/prospective for the comparison study). While it mentions a "prospective" clinical investigation for the reference bone graft, it doesn't specify if the comparison itself involved new prospective data or a retrospective analysis of the existing investigation's data.
  • Number of experts used to establish ground truth or their qualifications.
  • Adjudication method for the test set.
  • MRMC comparative effectiveness study details (effect size, human reader improvement). This type of study is more common for diagnostic imaging AI than for interbody fusion systems.
  • Standalone algorithm performance (algorithm only without human-in-the-loop). This is a physical device, so "standalone algorithm performance" is not applicable in the typical AI/software sense.
  • Type of ground truth used (pathology, outcomes data, etc.) beyond "clinical data" and "performance goal clinical investigation."
  • Sample size for the training set. There's no mention of a "training set" in the context of an AI/machine learning model. This submission is for a physical medical device.
  • How the ground truth for the training set was established. (Not applicable for this type of device submission).

Given these limitations, here is the best possible answer based only on the provided text, heavily inferring the "acceptance criteria" based on the substantial equivalence claims:

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

Acceptance Criteria (Implied from Substantial Equivalence)Reported Device Performance (Summary from Submission)
Mechanical Function and Performance: Device with AFT performs "as intended" and comparably to reference device and ISO 23089-2 mechanical performance data."Benchtop mechanical ASTM testing and comparison confirmed that the OptiMesh device with AFT performs as intended in comparison to the reference device and ISO 23089-2 mechanical performance data." (Specific numerical performance values not provided).
Biological Impact: AFT's impact on bone biology is comparable to the reference bone graft."A critical comparison between AFT bone void filler and the reference bone graft and its impact on bone biology was conducted and assessed." (Specific comparative biological data not provided).
Biocompatibility, Pyrogenicity/Endotoxin, Sterilization, Packaging, Shelf-life: These aspects are acceptable and comparable to the predicate/reference devices."Biocompatibility, pyrogenicity / endotoxin monitoring, sterilization, packaging, and shelf-life were compared and assessed." (Specific details of these assessments and their outcomes, other than "compared and assessed," are not provided).
Risk Profile: No alteration of the risk profile; no new issues of safety or effectiveness compared to the predicate device."A risk assessment was performed and confirmed that the OptiMesh device with AFT does not alter the risk profile for the device or present new issues of safety or effectiveness when compared to the predicate device." (Details of the risk assessment and specific findings not provided).
Clinical Performance & Safety: Performance and safety of OptiMesh with AFT are supported by clinical data demonstrating equivalence to a historically studied bone graft."Clinical data has been utilized to demonstrate the performance and safety of the addition of AFT as a compatible allograft for use with the OptiMesh Multiplanar Interbody Fusion System. The clinical data includes evaluation through a critical engineering and clinical comparison to a bone graft that was used in a prospective, multi-center, non-randomized, FDA and IRB approved performance goal clinical investigation." (Specific clinical outcomes not provided).

2. Sample size used for the test set and data provenance:
* Sample Size: Not specified in the given text.
* Data Provenance: The clinical data for comparison comes from a "prospective, multi-center, non-randomized, FDA and IRB approved performance goal clinical investigation" involving a reference bone graft. The country of origin is not specified but it's an FDA-approved study, implying it was likely conducted in the US or under FDA oversight for data acceptability.

3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and their qualifications:
* Not specified. The clinical investigation mentioned for comparison would have medical professionals involved, but the text does not detail the "ground truth" establishment process by experts in the context of this submission.

4. Adjudication method for the test set:
* Not specified.

5. If a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, and its effect size:
* No, an MRMC study is not mentioned. This type of study is typically for evaluating diagnostic imaging systems where human readers interpret medical images. This submission is for a physical interbody fusion system.

6. If a standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done:
* No, this concept is not applicable. The device is a physical medical implant, not an AI algorithm.

7. The type of ground truth used:
* The term "ground truth" is not explicitly used in the context of a dataset for algorithmic evaluation. However, for the clinical performance comparison, the "performance goal clinical investigation" likely established clinical outcomes (e.g., fusion rates, pain reduction, adverse events) as the de facto "truth" against which the subject device's performance (via comparison to a reference bone graft) was evaluated.

8. The sample size for the training set:
* Not applicable. This submission is for a physical medical device, not an AI/machine learning model that would require a training set.

9. How the ground truth for the training set was established:
* Not applicable, as there is no training set for an AI model.
