    Intended Use

    The EVOL® ha - Hyper C Cervical Interbody Fusion System is intended for intervertebral body fusion of the spine in skeletally mature patients. The EVOL® ha - Hyper C Cervical Interbody Fusion System is indicated for use for anterior cervical interbody fusion in patients with cervical disc disease, instability, trauma including fractures, deformity defined as kyphosis, or scollosis, cervical spondylotic myelopathy, spinal stenosis, and failed previous fusion. Cervical disc disease is defined as intractable radiculopathy and/or myelopathy with herniated disc and/or osteophyte formation on posterior vertebral endplates producing symptomatic nerve root and/or spinal cord compression confirmed by radiographic studies at up to two contiguous levels from C2 - T1.

    The EVOL® ha – Hyper C Cervical Interbody Fusion System is intended to be used with supplemental fixation. The EVOL® ha - Hyper C Cervical Interbody Fusion System is intended for use with autogenous and/or allogeneic bone graft comprised of cancellous, cortical, and/or corticocancellous bone graft to facilitate fusion. The cervical devices are to be used in patients who have had at least six weeks of non-operative treatment.

    Device Description

    The EVOL® ha – Hyper C Cervical Interbody Fusion System is designed for use as a cervical interbody fusion device and consists of various sizes to accommodate individual patient anatomy. The sizes vary by footprint (width and lordotic and lordotic ande. All sizes have a central window for bone graft. The inferior and superior faces have teeth to resist migration when placed in between the vertebral bodies. Each spacer has tantalum beads, per ASTM F560, imbedded in the device to aid visualization under fluoroscopy. The implants are manufactured from PEEK-OPTIMA® LT120 HA (Invibio) per ASTM F2026.

    AI/ML Overview

    The provided FDA 510(k) Clearance Letter for the EVOL® ha - Hyper C Cervical Interbody Fusion System does not contain details about acceptance criteria or specific studies proving device performance against such criteria in the way you've described (e.g., related to AI/ML device performance metrics like sensitivity, specificity, MRMC studies, or ground truth establishment).

    This document is a marketing clearance for a traditional medical device (an intervertebral body fusion system, which is a physical implant) and not a software-as-a-medical-device (SaMD) or an AI/ML powered device. The "acceptance criteria" and "studies" you're asking about are typically associated with the rigorous validation of diagnostic accuracy or clinical utility for AI/ML systems.

    Instead, for this physical medical device, "acceptance criteria" would primarily relate to its mechanical and material performance to ensure it is substantially equivalent to a predicate device and safe/effective for its intended use. The "studies" mentioned are non-clinical (benchtop) tests to demonstrate this.

    Here’s a breakdown based on the information provided, adapted to the context of a physical implant:

    1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance:

    Acceptance Criteria CategorySpecific Acceptance Criteria (Inferred from predicates and regulations)Reported Device Performance (Summary from document)
    Material CompositionConforms to specified medical-grade materials, biocompatibility.Manufactured from PEEK-OPTIMA® LT1 2HA (Invibio) per ASTM F2026. Imbeds tantalum beads per ASTM F560 (for visualization). Substantially equivalent to predicates in materials.
    Mechanical PerformanceWithstands physiological loads, resists displacement, maintains structural integrity.Passed ASTM F2077 (Standard Test Method for Axial Compression, Condylar Compression, and Shear Testing of Intervertebral Body Fusion Devices). Passed expulsion testing. The larger sizes (potentially worst-case) demonstrated no compromise to strength or structural integrity.
    Design FeaturesHas features for proper placement and function (e.g., bone graft window, anti-expulsion features).Central window for bone graft. Inferior and superior faces have teeth to resist migration. Various footprint sizes, depths, and lordotic angles.
    SterilityAchieves specified Sterility Assurance Level (SAL)."Sterility Assurance Level (SAL)" is listed as a characteristic compared to predicates, implying compliance.
    VisualizationRadiographic visibility for placement and follow-up.Tantalum beads embedded to aid visualization under fluoroscopy.
    BiocompatibilityNo adverse biological reactions.Manufacturing materials (PEEK, Tantalum) are standard for interbody fusion devices and are generally recognized as biocompatible for this application. Implied by substantial equivalence.
    Intended UseAligns with predicate device's intended use for cervical interbody fusion.The intended use remains unchanged and uses language from both predicates.

    2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance:

    • Sample Size: Not specified in the document. For benchtop mechanical testing (like ASTM F2077 and expulsion testing), sample sizes are typically determined by the specific ASTM standard or internal quality protocols to achieve statistical significance for engineering parameters, but they are generally small (e.g., 5-10 devices per test condition depending on variability).
    • Data Provenance: The tests are non-clinical, meaning they are laboratory/benchtop studies. There is no patient data involved (retrospective or prospective) for this type of device validation.

    3. 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 Applicable. For a physical interbody fusion device, "ground truth" in the diagnostic AI sense does not apply. The "ground truth" for mechanical testing is established by the engineering specifications and performance standards defined in ASTM or similar bodies. Expert interpretation might be involved in initial design and test protocol development (e.g., biomechanical engineers), but not in establishing a diagnostic "ground truth" for a test set.

    4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set:

    • Not Applicable. Adjudication methods are used to establish a consensus "ground truth" for diagnostic labels in medical imaging or pathology, often in the context of human reader studies for AI/ML devices. This is not relevant for the mechanical testing of a physical implant.

    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:

    • No. This type of study (MRMC for AI assistance) is not applicable to a physical intervertebral body fusion system.

    6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done:

    • No. This is

The T-FIX™ screws are made from a titanium alloy Ti-6Al-4V Grade 23 per ASTM 3001 and offered with a HA nano surface treatment when packaged sterile.

    AI/ML Overview

    This 510(k) summary does not contain information regarding software or AI/ML components, and therefore does not include acceptance criteria or a study proving device performance in that context. The device described, the T-FIX™ 3DSI Joint Fusion System, is a physical medical device (implants and instruments) for sacroiliac joint fusion, not a software-based diagnostic or therapeutic tool.

    The "Non-Clinical and Clinical Performance Testing" section (VIII) refers to "Additional testing was performed to determine that Steam as a sterilization method will not impact the safety or efficacy of this implant," but it does not provide details on specific acceptance criteria or study results for this testing, beyond concluding that it "does not raise any new concerns of safety or efficacy."

    Therefore, I cannot provide a table of acceptance criteria and reported device performance (Point 1) or any of the detailed information related to studies proving device performance, as requested in points 2 through 9, because this information is not present in the provided text for this specific device.

    Intended Use

    The EVOL® Spinal Interbody System is an intervertebral body device intended for use in skeletally mature patients with Degenerative Disc Disease (DDD) of the lumbar spine with up to Grade 1 spondylolisthesis at one or two contiguous levels from L2-S1. Degenerative disc disease is defined as discogenic back pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies.

    The EVOL® Spinal Interbody System is intended to be used with autograft comprised of cancellous and/ or corticocancellous bone graft to facilitate fusion. It is to be used in patients who have had six months of non-operative treatment and is to be implanted via a direct posterior, transforaminal or anterior approach. The CES-LIF is implanted in pairs in the lumbosacral spine. The EVOL® Spinal Interbody System is intended to be used with supplemental fixation.

    Device Description

    The EVOL® Spinal Interbody System is a family of PEEK-OPTIMA® HA Enhanced spacers offered in a variety of widths and lengths. The CES-LIF are generally rectangular in shape. The CES-LIF is used in pairs.

    The EVOL® Spinal Interbody System implants are available in a range of sizes to accommodate variations in patients' anatomy. In addition, tantalum beads are embedded in the spacers to help allow for radiographic visualization. The hollow implants have holes through four sides for bone graft and an inserter instrument interface on the face. The CES-LIF HA implants themselves are made of biocompatible PEEK-Optima® HA Enhanced (LT120) polymer material and provided non-sterile for single-use.

    Teeth on top and bottom of the implants improve fixation. They are symmetrical so that the implant will resist motion equally in either direction (anterior or posterior).

    The purpose of this submission is to add a new sterilization method.

    AI/ML Overview

    This document is a 510(k) premarket notification for a medical device called the "EVOL® Spinal Interbody System." This type of submission is for demonstrating substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device, rather than proving safety and effectiveness through extensive clinical trials with specific acceptance criteria that a new, novel device would require.

    Therefore, the document does not contain the kind of information you are asking for regarding acceptance criteria and a study that proves the device meets those criteria, as typically seen for AI/ML-driven medical devices or devices requiring clinical performance studies to establish performance claims.

    Here's why the requested information cannot be extracted from this document:

    • Device Type: The EVOL® Spinal Interbody System is a spinal implant (a physical medical device), not an independent diagnostic or AI/ML-driven device that would output performance metrics like sensitivity, specificity, or image analysis results.
    • Regulatory Pathway (510(k)): A 510(k) simply requires demonstrating that the new device is "substantially equivalent" to an already legally marketed device (predicate device). This is primarily done through a comparison of technological characteristics, materials, intended use, and sometimes non-clinical performance (e.g., mechanical testing, biocompatibility). It generally doesn't involve clinical performance studies with pre-defined acceptance criteria, expert ground truth establishment, or MRMC studies for quantifying human-AI collaboration.
    • Purpose of Submission: The specific purpose of this K200991 submission is to add a new sterilization method (steam sterilization) for an already cleared device line (EVOL® Spinal Interbody System). It explicitly states: "No additional testing is required to determine if Steam as a sterilization method will impact the safety or efficacy of this implant."

    In summary, this document does not describe a study that proves the device meets specific acceptance criteria related to its diagnostic or performance accuracy, as it is a physical implant and the submission focuses on a change in sterilization method.

    If this were an AI/ML device, the detailed information requested would be crucial for its 510(k) clearance or de novo authorization.

    Intended Use

    The EVOS Lumbar Interbody System is an intervertebral body device in skeletally mature patients with Degenerative Disc Disease (DDD) of the lumbar spine with up to Grade 1 spondylolisthesis at one or two contiguous levels from L2-S1. Degenerative disc disease is defined as discogenic back pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies.

    The EVOS Lumbar Interbody System is intended to be used with autograft comprised of cancellous and/ or corticocancellous bone graft to facilitate fusion. It is to be used in patients who have had six months of non-operative treatment and is to be implanted via a direct posterior or transforaminal approach. The EVOS CURVED devices are implanted singly, while the EVOS ROTATE and EVOS STRAIGHT devices may be implanted singly or in pairs in the lumbosacral spine. The EVOS Lumbar Interbody System is intended to be used with supplemental fixation.

    Device Description

    The EVOS Lumbar Interbody System is comprised of a variety of Implants manufactured from PEEK (Polyetheretherketone) -Optima LT1 (per ASTM F-2026) and PEEK Optima LT120HA, with Tantalum bead markers per ASTM F-560. There are three main configurations; STRAIGHT, CURVED, and ROTATE. The different configurations allow for multiple surgical technique options. The EVOS STRAIGHT and the EVOS ROTATE are generally rectangular in shape while the EVOS CURVED is curved. The EVOS CURVED devices are implanted singly, while the EVOS ROTATE and EVOS STRAIGHT devices may be implanted singly or in pairs.

    The EVOS device(s) are available in a range of sizes, as well as flat and biconvex endplates, and with various degrees of lordosis to accommodate variations in patients' anatomy. The angle of lordosis on each lordotic EVOS device is oriented in a way that will provide a true anterior/posterior lordotic orientation once the device has been implanted in its final intervertebral location. For example, the True Oblique Lordotic (TOL) devices have a lordotic orientation to the device that will provide a correct anterior/posterior lordotic orientation once they have been inserted at 30 degrees from the anterior/posterior midline.

    Implant heights range from 6mm to 16mm in maximum height (minus the height of the teeth). Widths range from 8mm to 12mm and lengths range from 22mm to 30mm. The variety of implant shapes and sizes accommodate various surgical technique options. The hollow implants have holes through four sides for bone graft and an inserter instrument interface on the face. Teeth on top and bottom of the spacers improve fixation. The EVOS Lumbar Interbody System includes the instrumentation to facilitate the implantation of the implants.

    The approach and the discectomy are conducted using standard instruments while subsequent steps are conducted using standard and/or custom instruments. The system is comprised of instruments and perforated instrument cases that are generally comprised of aluminum, stainless steel and/or polymeric materials.

    The EVOS rotate and non-rotate Inserter(s) are instruments intended for use with the EVOS Lumbar Interbody System. The inserter(s) are designed specifically to implant the EVOS device into a prepared disc space. The EVOS non-rotate inserters are designed to work with the EVOS straight and curved devices while the EVOS rotate inserter is designed to work with the EVOS rotate devices.

    AI/ML Overview

    The provided text is an FDA 510(k) premarket notification for the EVOS Lumbar Interbody System. It focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device and does not contain information about the acceptance criteria or a study proving the device meets those criteria, particularly in the context of an AI/human-in-the-loop performance study.

    Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information based on the provided text. The document states:

    "No design changes were made to the existing devices, nor were any new components added to the system. Therefore, no additional testing was required or performed." (Page 6, Section VII)

    This indicates that the submission relies on the prior clearance of the predicate device and does not include new performance studies or acceptance criteria beyond those relevant for establishing substantial equivalence for a medical device (material properties, dimensions, mechanical performance, etc.), rather than the type of AI-driven performance testing implied by the detailed questions.

    To answer your request, a document detailing the clinical or technical performance study of an AI-enabled medical device would be needed.

    The EVOL® ha – D Lateral Interbody Fusion System is intended for intervertebral body fusion of the spine in skeletally mature patients. EVOL® ha - D Lateral Interbody Fusion System is indicated for use at either one level or two contiguous levels in the lumbar spine (L2-S1) for the treatment of degenerative disc disease (DDD) with up to Grade I spondylolisthesis. DDD is defined as back pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. The EVOL® ha - D Lateral Interbody Fusion System is designed for use with autogenous and/or allogeneic bone graft comprised of cancellous and/or corticocancellous bone graft to facilitate fusion and supplemental fixation system cleared by the FDA for use in the lumbosacral spine. The devices are to be used in patients who have had at least six months of non-operative treatment.

    Device Description

    The EVOL® ha -D Lateral Interbody Fusion System is designed for use as a lumbar interbody fusion device and consists of various sizes to accommodate individual patient anatomy. The sizes vary by footprint (width and depth), height, and lordotic angle. All sizes have two central windows for bone graft. The inferior and superior faces have teeth to resist migration when placed in between the vertebral bodies. Each spacer has tantalum beads, per ASTM F560, imbedded in the device to aid visualization under fluoroscopy. The implants are manufactured from PEEK-OPTIMA® LT120 HA (Invibio) per ASTM F2026.

    AI/ML Overview

    The provided text is a 510(k) summary for a medical device called the EVOL® ha - D Lateral Interbody Fusion System. It describes the device, its intended use, and its comparison to predicate devices, including performance testing. However, it does not contain the specific information required to complete the detailed table about acceptance criteria, device performance, sample sizes, ground truth establishment, or clinical study specifics (like MRMC studies, expert qualifications, or adjudication methods).

    This document focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence for regulatory approval, primarily through mechanical performance testing to established standards, rather than establishing clinical effectiveness or diagnostic accuracy.

    Therefore, most of the requested information cannot be extracted from this document.

    Here's a breakdown of what can be extracted and what cannot:

    1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance:

    • Acceptance Criteria: The document states that "Testing was performed for the EVOL® ha – D Lateral Interbody Fusion System and demonstrated substantial equivalent performance to the identified predicate" and "In all, the biomechanical testing results demonstrate the EVOL® ha – D Lateral Interbody Fusion System is substantially equivalent to the predicate device." It also mentions testing in accordance with ASTM F2077 and ASTM F2267 standards (static & dynamic tests for compression and compression shear, subsidence, and expulsion tests).
      • However, the specific numerical acceptance criteria (e.g., "must withstand X N of compression for Y cycles") and the numerical reported device performance (e.g., "device withstood Z N for W cycles") are NOT provided in this summary. The summary only states that the device "demonstrated substantial equivalent performance" to the predicate.
    Acceptance Criteria (General)Reported Device Performance (General)
    Substantial equivalent performance to predicateDemonstrated substantial equivalent performance to predicate
    Adherence to ASTM F2077 & ASTM F2267Tests performed in accordance with ASTM F2077 & ASTM F2267
    Pass static & dynamic compression testsTests performed for static & dynamic compression
    Pass compression shear testsTests performed for compression shear
    Pass subsidence testsTests performed for subsidence
    Pass expulsion testsTests performed for expulsion

    2. 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. This refers to the number of physical devices or constructs tested, which is not detailed in this summary.
    • Data Provenance (Country of Origin, Retrospective/Prospective): Not specified. This type of information is typically for clinical data, which is not the focus here.

    3. 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 Applicable. This device is an interbody fusion system (an implant), not a diagnostic algorithm. The "ground truth" for mechanical testing is based on the physical properties and performance of the device under stress, compared against established standards and predicate devices, not expert human interpretation of medical images or diagnostic outcomes.

    4. Adjudication method (e.g., 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set:

    • Not Applicable. As above, this is for diagnostic algorithms assessing human interpretation, not mechanical device testing.

    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:

    • No. This is a mechanical orthopedic implant, not an AI-powered diagnostic tool. Therefore, an MRMC study is not relevant and was not performed.

    6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done:

    • No. This is a mechanical orthopedic implant, not an algorithm.

    7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.):

    • The "ground truth" for this type of submission is the mechanical performance standards (ASTM F2077, ASTM F2267) and the established performance of the predicate devices. The device is deemed "substantially equivalent" if it meets or exceeds these mechanical benchmarks.

    8. The sample size for the training set:

    • Not Applicable. This is a mechanical device, not an AI/ML model that requires a training set.

    9. How the ground truth for the training set was established:

    • Not Applicable. As above, this is for AI/ML models.

    In summary, the provided document focuses on the mechanical equivalence for regulatory clearance of an orthopedic implant. It is not an evaluation of a diagnostic AI device, which would require the kinds of detailed clinical study information requested in your prompt.

    Device Description

    The EVOL® Spinal Interbody System is a family of PEEK-OPTIMA or PEEK-OPTIMA HA spacers offered in a variety of widths and lengths. There are five main configurations: CES-PLIF, CES-LIF, CES-TLIF, CES-CLIF and CES-RLIF. The different configurations allow for multiple surgical technique options. The CES-PLIF, CES-LIF, CES-CLIF and CES-RLIF are generally rectangular in shape while the CES-TLIF is curved. The CES-PLIF and CES-LIF are used in pairs while the other options are used singly or in pairs.

    The EVOL® Spinal Interbody System implants are available in a range of sizes, as well as parallel and lordotic angled implants, to accommodate variations in patients' anatomy. In addition, tantalum beads or pins are embedded in the spacers as an option to help allow for radiographic visualization. The hollow implants have holes through four sides for bone graft and an inserter instrument interface on the face. The implants themselves are made of biocompatible PEEK-Optima Natural (LT1) or [PEEK-Optima HA Enhanced (LT120) - CES-LIF only] polymer material (per ASTM F2026).

    Teeth on top and bottom of the implants improve fixation. They are symmetrical so that the implant will resist motion equally in either direction (anterior or posterior).

    The EVOS Lumbar Interbody System is comprised of a variety of Implants manufactured from PEEK (Polyetheretherketone) -Optima LT1 and PEEK Optima LT120HA per ASTM F-2026, with Tantalum bead markers per ASTM F-560. There are three main configurations; STRAIGHT, CURVED, and ROTATE. The different configurations allow for multiple surgical technique options. The EVOS STRAIGHT and the EVOS ROTATE are generally rectangular in shape while the EVOS CURVED is curved. The EVOS CURVED devices are implanted singly, while the EVOS ROTATE and EVOS STRAIGHT devices may be implanted singly or in pairs.

    The EVOS device(s) are available in a range of sizes, as well as flat and biconvex endplates, and with various degrees of lordosis to accommodate variations in patients' anatomy. The angle of lordosis on each lordotic EVOS device is oriented in a way that will provide a true anterior/posterior lordotic orientation once the device has been implanted in its final intervertebral location. For example, the True Oblique Lordotic (TOL) devices have a lordotic orientation to the device that will provide a correct anterior/posterior lordotic orientation once they have been inserted at 30 degrees from the anterior/posterior midline.

    Implant heights range from 6mm to 16mm in maximum height (minus the height of the teeth). Widths range from 8mm to 12mm and lengths range from 22mm to 30mm. The variety of implant shapes and sizes accommodate various surgical technique options. The hollow implants have holes through four sides for bone graft and an inserter instrument interface on the face. Teeth on top and bottom of the spacers improve fixation. The EVOS Lumbar Interbody System includes the instrumentation to facilitate the implantation of the implants.

    The approach and the discectomy are conducted using standard instruments while subsequent steps are conducted using standard and/or custom instruments. The system is comprised of instruments and perforated instrument cases that are generally comprised of aluminum, stainless steel and/or polymeric materials.

    The EVOS rotate and non-rotate Inserter(s) are instruments intended for use with the EVOS Lumbar Interbody System. The inserter(s) are designed specifically to implant the EVOS device into a prepared disc space. The EVOS non-rotate inserters are designed to work with the EVOS straight and curved devices while the EVOS rotate inserter is designed to work with the EVOS rotate devices.

    AI/ML Overview

    The provided text is a 510(k) summary for the EVOL® Spinal Interbody System and EVOS Lumbar Interbody System. It does not describe acceptance criteria, a specific study proving the device meets acceptance criteria, or any details related to AI/algorithm performance.

    The document focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices based on technological characteristics, intended use, design features, and mechanical performance. It mentions non-clinical performance testing for the EVOL® Spinal Interbody System, specifically:

    • Static Compression
    • Static Compression Shear
    • Dynamic Compression
    • Expulsion testing

    These tests were performed per ASTM F2026, and the conclusion states that the "Testing performed showed substantial equivalence to the predicate." However, specific acceptance criteria values and the reported device performance values are not provided within this summary for these tests.

    For the EVOS Lumbar Interbody System, the document states, "No design changes were made to the existing devices, nor were any new components added to the system. Therefore, no additional testing was required or performed." This implies that prior testing for the original EVOS system would have satisfied the substantial equivalence requirements, but those details are not in this document.

    Therefore, I cannot fulfill the request for information regarding acceptance criteria, device performance, sample sizes, data provenance, expert qualifications, adjudication methods, MRMC studies, standalone algorithm performance, or ground truth details because these particulars are not present in the provided text. The document is a regulatory submission focused on substantial equivalence based on mechanical and material properties, not an AI or diagnostic device study.
