SANTORINI Corpectomy Cages are vertebral body replacement devices intended for use in the cervical and thoracolumbar spine.
When used in the cervical spine (C2-T1), SANTORINI cages are intended for use in skeletally mature patients to replace a diseased or damaged vertebral body caused by tumor, fracture, or osteomyelitis, or for reconstruction following corpectomy performed to achieve decompression of the spinal cord and neural tissues in cervical degenerative disorders. These cages are intended to restore integrity of the spinal column even in the absence of fusion for a limited time period in patients with advanced stage tumors involving the cervical spine in whom life expectancy is of insufficient duration to permit achievement of fusion, with bone graft used at the surgeon's discretion.
When used in the thoracolumbar spine (T1-L5), SANTORINI cages are intended for use to replace a collapsed, damaged, or unstable vertebral body due to tumor and trauma (i.e. fracture). These cages are designed to provide anterior spinal column support even in the absence of fusion for a prolonged period.
The interior of the cages can be packed with autograft or allogenic bone graft comprising cancellous and/or corticocancellous bone graft as an adjunct to fusion.
When used in the thoracolumbar spine, the Santorini Corpectomy cages are intended to be used with supplemental internal fixation appropriate for the implanted level, including K2M Pedicle Screw and Hook Systems, and K2M Spinal Plate Systems.
When used in the cervical spine at one or two levels, the SANTORINI Corpectomy Cage System is intended to be used with supplemental fixation cleared by the FDA for use in the cervical spine. When used at more than two levels, supplemental fixation should include posterior fixation which is cleared by the FDA
CAPRI Corpectomy Cages are vertebral body replacement devices intended for use in the cervical and thoracolumbar spine.
When used in the cervical spine (C2-T1). CAPRI Static cages are intended for use in skeletally mature patients to replace a diseased or damaged vertebral body caused by tumor, fracture, or osteomyelitis, or for reconstruction following corpectomy performed to achieve decompression of the spinal cord and neural tissues in cervical degenerative disorders. These cages are intended to restore integrity of the spinal column even in the absence of fusion for a limited time period in patients with advanced stage tumors involving the cervical spine in whom life expectancy is of insufficient duration to permit achievement of fusion, with bone graft used at the surgeon's discretion.
When used in the thoracolumbar spine (T1-L5), CAPRI Static and Expandable cages are intended for use to replace a collapsed, damaged, or unstable vertebral body due to tumor and trauma (i.e. fracture). These cages are designed to provide anterior spinal column support even in the absence of fusion for a prolonged period.
The interior of the cages can be packed with autograft or allogenic bone graft comprising cancellous and/or corticocancellous bone graft as an adjunct to fusion.
When used in the thoracolumbar spine, the CAPRI Static and Expandable Corpectomy cages are intended to be used with supplemental internal fixation appropriate for the implanted level, including K2M Pedicle Screw and Hook Systems, and K2M Spinal Plate Systems.
When used in the cervical spine at one or two levels, the CAPRI Static cages are intended to be used with supplemental fixation cleared by the FDA for use in the cervical spine. When used at more than two levels, supplemental fixation should include posterior fixation which is cleared by the FDA
The SANTORINI and CAPRI Corpectomy System implants are vertebral body replacement devices that are designed in a variety of lengths, widths and heights to match the patient's anatomy. Solid and adjustable cages are available and can be implanted via posterior, anterior or lateral approaches. The implants of the CAPRI Corpectomy Cage Systems are manufactured from Titanium (per ASTM F3001) and Cobalt Chrome (per ASTM F1537). The SANTORINI implants are made from PEEK OPTIMA LT1 (ASTM F2026) and tantalum (ASTM 560), with some components containing CP titanium (ASTM F67). The purpose of this submission is to expand the indications to include the cervical spine.
Function: The system is used to provide structural stability in skeletally mature individuals following a corpectomy or vertebrectomy.
This document is an FDA 510(k) clearance letter for the SANTORINI and CAPRI Corpectomy Cage Systems. It primarily deals with the substantial equivalence of medical devices, not the performance of an AI/algorithm-based device. Therefore, the detailed information about acceptance criteria, study methodologies, expert ground truth establishment, MRMC studies, or training sets for AI models is not present in this document.
The document discusses the substantial equivalence of the SANTORINI and CAPRI Corpectomy Cage Systems to legally marketed predicate devices, focusing on:
- Device description
- Intended use
- Technological comparison
- Non-clinical performance evaluation via in vitro testing (static/dynamic compression and torsion, subsidence)
- Clinical evaluation via literature review.
Since the request is specifically about "acceptance criteria and the study that proves the device meets the acceptance criteria" in the context of AI/algorithm-based devices, and this document pertains to physical surgical implants, I cannot extract the requested information as it is not relevant to this type of medical device clearance.
The "acceptance criteria" and "study that proves the device meets the acceptance criteria" in this context refer to biomechanical testing and clinical literature review for the physical cage systems, not performance metrics of an AI model.
Therefore, I am unable to populate the table and answer the specific questions related to AI/algorithm performance.

It is also indicated for the treatment of severe 'pondylolisthesis ( grades 3 and 4 ) of the L5-S1 vertebra in skeletally mature patients receiving fusion by utogenous bone graft having implants attached to the lumbar and sacral spine ( L3 to sacrum ) with removal of the implants after the attainment of a solid fusion.
The Mesa Spine System is a top-loading, multiple component, posterior spinal fixation system which consists of pedicle screws, rods, hooks, and transverse connectors. All of the components are available in a variety of sizes to match more closely the patient's anatomy.
Materials: The devices are manufactured from Ti6Al-4V ELI alloy per ASTM and ISO standards.
Function: The system functions as an adjunct to fusion to provide immobilization of spinal segments of the thoracic, lumbar and / or sacral spine.
The provided document is a 510(k) Summary for the Mesa Spinal System, which is a medical device. This type of document is a premarket notification to the FDA to demonstrate substantial equivalence to a legally marketed device. It describes the device's intended use, materials, and a comparison to predicate devices, but it does not contain information about acceptance criteria or a study proving device performance against such criteria in the context of clinical or diagnostic efficacy.
Instead, the document primarily focuses on biomechanical testing to demonstrate equivalence to predicate devices, which is typical for spinal fixation systems. Here's a breakdown of why the requested information cannot be fully provided from the given text:
-
Acceptance criteria and reported device performance (Table 1): The document states: "The Mesa Spine System was biomechanically tested and compared to the predicate systems and other currently marketed systems and performed equal to or better than these systems in ASTM testing to F1717." This indicates a type of performance standard (ASTM F1717) was used, and the device met or exceeded it. However, specific numerical acceptance criteria (e.g., "must withstand X N of force," "fatigue life must exceed Y cycles") and the exact reported performance values are not detailed in this summary. The table below reflects the limited information available.
-
Sample size, data provenance, number of experts, adjudication method, MRMC studies, standalone performance, type of ground truth, training set size, and ground truth establishment for a clinical/diagnostic study: These questions are entirely not applicable to the type of information presented in this 510(k) summary. The document describes a biomechanical study, not a clinical study involving human patients, image analysis, or diagnostic accuracy where such details would be relevant.
Therefore, most of the requested fields cannot be filled based on the provided text.
Here's the closest possible answer based only on the provided text, with explanations where information is absent:
Acceptance Criteria and Device Performance
Acceptance Criteria | Reported Device Performance |
---|---|
Biomechanical Performance: Equal to or better than predicate devices in ASTM F1717 testing. | Performed equal to or better than predicate systems and other currently marketed systems in ASTM testing to F1717. |
Explanation: The document explicitly states that the device was biomechanically tested against the ASTM F1717 standard and compared to predicate devices. The acceptance criterion was implicitly defined as performing "equal to or better than" these established systems. Specific numerical thresholds for this ASTM standard and the exact results are not provided in this 510(k) summary.
Details of the Study
-
Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective):
- Sample Size: Not specified. (This likely refers to the number of devices or components tested in the biomechanical study).
- Data Provenance: Not applicable, as this was a biomechanical study, not a clinical data collection from patients or specific countries.
-
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 was a biomechanical test of physical properties, not a study requiring expert clinical "ground truth" establishment.
-
Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set:
- Not Applicable. (Again, this pertains to clinical/diagnostic studies, not biomechanical tests).
-
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. An MRMC study was not done. This device is a spinal fixation system, not a diagnostic AI tool, so this type of study is irrelevant.
-
If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the loop performance) was done:
- Not Applicable. This is a physical medical device, not an algorithm.
-
The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc):
- Not Applicable. The "ground truth" for a biomechanical study would typically be the physical properties and performance standards defined by the ASTM F1717 standard and the performance of the predicate devices.
-
The sample size for the training set:
- Not Applicable. This device is hardware; there is no "training set" in the machine learning sense.
-
How the ground truth for the training set was established:
- Not Applicable. As there is no training set for this type of device and study.

Materials: The devices are manufactured from Ti6Al-4V ELI alloy per ASTM and ISO standards.
Function: The system functions as an adjunct to fusion to provide immobilization of spinal segments of the thoracic, lumbar and / or sacral spine.
The provided 510(k) summary for the Denali Spinal System does not contain the detailed information requested regarding acceptance criteria and a study proving the device meets those criteria.
This 510(k) submission focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to existing legally marketed devices, rather than establishing de novo acceptance criteria and then proving the device meets them through a specific clinical study with granular details like sample size for test sets, expert qualifications, or MRMC studies.
Here's a breakdown of why the requested information cannot be extracted from the provided document:
- Nature of 510(k) Submissions: 510(k)s are primarily premarket notifications to demonstrate that a new device is as safe and effective as (i.e., substantially equivalent to) a legally marketed predicate device. They typically rely on comparisons of technological characteristics, materials, and intended use, often supported by bench testing (biomechanical, material compatibility) rather than extensive clinical efficacy trials with acceptance criteria in the manner requested.
Information that could be inferred/stated from the document:
1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance:
-
Acceptance Criteria (Implied): The implied acceptance criterion for this 510(k) is "substantial equivalence" to the listed predicate devices in terms of design, function, materials, and intended use.
-
Reported Device Performance (Implied): The document states "The Denali System was biomechanically tested and compared to its predicate devices... The Denali System found to be substantially the same as these systems." and "It's components were manufactured from the same FDA recognized materials and is indicated for the same intended uses as these systems."
Acceptance Criterion (Implied for 510(k)) Reported Device Performance Substantially equivalent in design Found to be substantially the same as predicate devices. Substantially equivalent in function Performed equal to predicate devices. Substantially equivalent in materials Manufactured from the same FDA recognized materials. Substantially equivalent in intended use Indicated for the same intended uses as predicate systems. Biomechanical performance Biomechanically tested and compared favorably to predicate devices.
2. Sample sized used for the test set and the data provenance:
- Not provided. The document mentions "biomechanically tested" but does not specify sample sizes for these tests, nor the data provenance (country, retrospective/prospective). This is typically detailed in engineering reports, not summarized in the 510(k) in this level of detail.
3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts:
- Not applicable/Not provided. For a 510(k) based on substantial equivalence and biomechanical testing, "ground truth" related to clinical outcomes or expert consensus on observations isn't typically established in this manner. The "truth" is based on established engineering principles and comparison to predicate devices.
4. Adjudication method for the test set:
- Not applicable/Not provided. This is relevant for studies involving human interpretation or clinical endpoints, which is not the focus of this 510(k) submission.
5. If a multi reader multi case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done:
- No. An MRMC study is not mentioned or implied. MRMC studies are specific to evaluating the diagnostic performance of imaging devices/algorithms with multiple human readers, often comparing performance with and without AI assistance. This device is a spinal implant, not an imaging device.
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the loop performance) was done:
- No. This refers to AI algorithms for diagnosis or analysis. The Denali Spinal System is a physical medical device (implant), not an algorithm.
7. The type of ground truth used:
- The "ground truth" for demonstrating substantial equivalence for this device would be:
- Engineering specifications and material standards: Adherence to ASTM and ISO standards for materials (Ti6Al-4V ELI alloy).
- Bench test results: Biomechanical performance data showing comparability to predicate devices.
- Functional comparison: Direct comparison of design features and sizing to predicate devices.
8. The sample size for the training set:
- Not applicable/Not provided. There is no "training set" in the context of this 510(k) for a spinal implant. This term relates to machine learning models.
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established:
- Not applicable/Not provided. As there's no training set, there's no ground truth establishment for it.
In summary, the provided document is a 510(k) summary for a physical medical device, not an AI/software device. Therefore, many of the requested details about acceptance criteria, clinical study design, and ground truth establishment (especially those related to human readers, experts, and AI algorithms) are not present and are not typically required for this type of submission.
