The Catalyft™ LS Expandable Interbody System device, including those with or without micro- and nano-roughened surface textures, is indicated for use as an intervertebral body fusion device in skeletally mature patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD - defined by discogenic back pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by patient history and radiographic studies) at one or two contiguous levels of the lumbar spine (L2-S1). Additionally, the Catalyft™ LS Expandable Interbody System can be used with patients diagnosed with multilevel degenerative scoliosis and sagittal deformities as an adjunct to fusion. When used in patients as an adjunct to fusion in patients diagnosed with multilevel degenerative scoliosis and sagittal deformity conditions, additional supplemental fixation (e.g. posterior fixation) must be used. These patients should be skeletally mature and have undergone 6 months of non-operative treatment prior to surgery. Implants are used to facilitate fusion in the lumbar spine using autogenous bone graft and/or allograft bone graft comprised of cancellous and/or corticocancellous bone, and/or demineralized allograft bone with bone marrow aspirate.
These implants may be implanted via a variety of open or minimally invasive anterior or oblique approaches.
The Catalyft™ LS Expandable Interbody System device may be used as a stand-alone device or in conjunction with supplemental fixation. When used as a stand-alone device, the Catalyft™ LS Expandable Interbody System device is intended to be used with 4 titanium alloy screws. If the physician chooses to use less than 4 or none of the provided screws, additional supplemental fixation in the lumbar spine must be used to augment stability. Implants with lordosis angles greater than 20° are intended to be used with 4 screws and supplemental fixation.
The Catalyft™ LS Expandable Interbody System is an expandable titanium alloy interbody device consisting of expandable interbodies of various widths, lengths, heights, and lordotic angles to accommodate patient anatomy. These devices can be inserted between two lumbar or lumbosacral vertebral bodies to give support and correction during lumbar interbody fusion surgeries. Implants have a central cavity that allows them to be packed with autogenous bone graft and/or allograft bone graft comprised of cancellous and/or corticocancellous bone, and/or demineralized allograft bone with bone marrow aspirate.
The interbody devices incorporate Titan Surface Technologies™, where exterior surfaces include nanoLOCK™ surface treatments designed to improve bone fixation to adjacent bone. nanoLOCK™ surface technology provides a microscopic, roughened surface with nano-scale features. nanoLOCK surface technology is specifically engineered to have nano textured features at a nanometer (10-9) level, which has demonstrated the ability to elicit an endogenous cellular and biochemical response attributed to these nanotextured features in vitro. nanoLOCK surface technology demonstrates elements to be considered nanotechnology as outlined in the FDA nanotechnology guidance document.
The provided document is a 510(k) Premarket Notification for a medical device called the Catalyft™ LS Expandable Interbody System. It details the device's characteristics, indications for use, and a comparison to predicate devices, along with performance data.
However, this document does not describe acceptance criteria for an AI/ML powered device, nor does it detail a study proving such a device meets acceptance criteria.
The device described, an intervertebral body fusion device, is a physical implant, not an AI/ML software device. The "Performance Data" section specifically lists mechanical tests (e.g., Static and Dynamic Compression, Subsidence, Expulsion, Wear Debris, Bone screw push out, MRI Safety Evaluation) that are relevant to the physical and biomechanical characteristics of an implantable device, not to the performance of an AI/ML algorithm.
Therefore, I cannot fulfill your request to describe the acceptance criteria and the study proving an AI/ML device meets them based on the provided input, as the input concerns a traditional medical implant.

The CD Horizon™ Spinal System consists of a variety of shapes and sizes of rods, hooks, screws, Crosslink™ Plates, staples, and connecting components, as well as implant components from other Medtronic spinal systems which can be rigidly locked into a variety of configurations, with each construct being tailor-made for the individual case. A subset of CD Horizon™ Spinal System components may be used for posterior pedicle screw fixation in pediatric cases. These constructs may be comprised of a variety of shapes and sizes of rods (ranging in diameter from 3.5 to 6.35mm), hooks, screws, Crosslink™ plates and connecting components. Similar to the CD Horizon™ implants used in adult cases, these components can be rigidly locked into a variety of configurations, with each construct being tailor-made for the individual case. Certain components within the CD Horizon™ Spinal System are specifically excluded for use in pediatric patients. These include PEEK rods, Shape Memory Alloy Staples, Spire™ plates, and Dynalok™ bolts. Screws used in pediatric cases are only cleared for use via a posterior approach. Components used in pediatric cases are fabricated from medical grade stainless steel, medical grade titanium, titanium alloy, and medical grade cobalt-chromium-molybdenum alloy. Certain implant components from other Medtronic spinal systems can be used with the CD Horizon™ Spinal System in non- pediatric cases. These components include TSRH™ rods, hooks, screws, plates, Crosslink™ plates, connectors, staples, and washers, GDLH™ rods, hooks, connectors, and Crosslink™ bar and connectors; Liberty™ rods and screws; Dynalok™ Plus and Dynalok Classic™ bolts along with rod/bolt connectors; and Medtronic multi-axial rods and screws. Note: certain components are specifically designed to connect to specific rod diameters, while other components can connect to multiple rod diameters. Care should be taken so the correct components are used in the spinal construct. CD Horizon™ hooks are intended for posterior use only. CD Horizon™ staples and CD Horizon™ Eclipse™ rods and associated screws are intended for anterior use only. However, for patients of smaller stature and pediatric patients, CD Horizon™ 4.5mm rods and associated components may be used posteriorly. CD Horizon™ Spinal System implant components are fabricated from medical grade stainless steel, medical grade titanium titanium alloy medical grade cobalt-chromium- molybdenum alloy, or medical grade PEEK Optima-LT1. Certain CD Horizon™ Spinal System components may be coated with hydroxyapatite.
This document, K233951, is a 510(k) premarket notification for the CD Horizon ModuLeX Spinal System (Shanks, Head Assemblies, and Set Screw). It is a notification demonstrating substantial equivalence to previously cleared predicate devices, not a study for a new device with new acceptance criteria and a detailed clinical trial. Therefore, most of the requested information regarding acceptance criteria, study details, and AI performance is not applicable to this type of submission.
Here's a breakdown of the relevant information provided and why other requested details are absent:
-
A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance:
- Acceptance Criteria (General): The acceptance criteria for this type of submission are typically that the new device does not present a "new worst case" compared to the predicate devices and meets established ASTM standards for spinal implants. The document explicitly states: "For the tested subject devices, the pre-determined acceptance criteria was met for all tests."
- Reported Device Performance: The performance data reported is primarily through engineering bench testing according to existing ASTM standards for spinal implants. The document indicates that for tested devices, acceptance criteria were met. For rationalized devices (those where new testing was deemed unnecessary because they do not present a new worst case), the existing predicate data applies.
Acceptance Criteria (Type) Reported Device Performance ASTM F1717: Static Compression, Static Torsion, Compression Fatigue (Relevant for spinal system components) Met pre-determined acceptance criteria for all tested devices. ASTM F1798: Axial Grip, Axial Torsion, Flexion Extension Static, Flexion Extension Fatigue Screw Reduction to Failure Testing (Relevant for pedicle screw systems) Met pre-determined acceptance criteria for all tested devices. ASTM F2503: MRI Compatibility Evaluation Met pre-determined acceptance criteria for all tested devices. Device does not present a "new worst case" compared to predicate devices (for rationalized devices). This implies that the performance characteristics (mechanical strength, material compatibility, etc.) are equivalent to or better than the predicate devices, as demonstrated by the existing predicate data or engineering analysis. The subject devices have the same intended use, indications for use, materials, similar overall design, fundamental technology, sterilization, and surgical technique as the predicate devices. The subject and predicate implants have the same function and fundamental scientific technology. Applicable (existing predicate data is applicable). -
Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g., country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective):
- This document refers to bench testing (mechanical, material, MRI compatibility). The "sample size" for such testing is generally a number of physical specimens tested to meet statistical power for engineering analysis, not a patient-based test set as in clinical studies. The document does not specify the exact number of physical samples for each test (e.g., how many screws were tested for axial grip).
- Data Provenance: This is engineering test data, not patient data. Therefore, concepts like "country of origin of the data," "retrospective," or "prospective" are not applicable.
-
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 is an engineering test of spinal implant components, not an AI or diagnostic device requiring expert interpretation of medical images or patient data to establish ground truth.
-
Adjudication method (e.g., 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set:
- Not applicable. Adjudication methods are used in clinical studies or performance studies where multiple readers or experts assess outcomes. This is bench testing.
-
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 spinal implant device, not an AI or diagnostic software. Therefore, an MRMC study or AI assistance is not relevant to this submission.
-
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 or AI.
-
The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.):
- Not applicable in the clinical sense. For mechanical testing, the "ground truth" is defined by the physical limits and standards outlined in the ASTM protocols (e.g., a screw must withstand a certain load without failure, or a material must not show adverse reactions in an MRI environment).
-
The sample size for the training set:
- Not applicable. This is not an AI/machine learning device that requires a training set.
-
How the ground truth for the training set was established:
- Not applicable. As above, no training set for an AI/ML model is involved.
Summary of the 510(k) Submission:
This 510(k) submission for the CD Horizon ModuLeX Spinal System focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to existing predicate devices already on the market. The primary "study" involved is a series of bench tests (mechanical and MRI compatibility) conducted according to established ASTM standards (F1717, F1798, F2503) for spinal implants. The key "acceptance criterion" for these tests is simply meeting the pre-determined specifications of these standards, and the document states that these criteria were met for all tested devices. For components not subjected to new testing, the justification ("rationalization") relies on the fact that they do not present a "new worst case" compared to previously cleared predicate devices, implying their performance aligns with the existing, cleared data. This type of submission does not involve clinical studies or AI performance evaluations.

- OsteoCool™ 2.0 Radiofrequency Generator
- OsteoCool™ 2.0 Peristaltic Pump & Pump Cable
- OsteoCool™ 2.0 Connector Hub
- OsteoCool™ 2.0 Cart
The OsteoCool™ 2.0 RF Ablation System line extension includes the following commercially available sterile disposables that remain unchanged from the OsteoCool™ RF Ablation System K182497 (S.E. 12/17/2018): - OsteoCool™ RF Ablation Probe with Tube Kit
- OsteoCool™ Independent Thermocouple with Introducer Kit:
The OsteoCool™ 2.0 RF Ablation System delivers controlled radiofrequency (RF) energy in a bipolar manner with a cooling mechanism to facilitate RF lesions in target tissue. The OsteoCool™ 2.0 Radiofrequency (RF) Generator operates together with the OsteoCool™ RF Ablation Probe to deliver the RF energy to the target ablation site(s).

The OsteoCool™ 2.0 Pump Cable connects the OsteoCool™ 2.0 Peristaltic Pump to the OsteoCool™ 2.0 RF Generator, which controls the pump flowrate.
The OsteoCool™ 2.0 Connector Hub connects the OsteoCool RF Ablation Probe(s) and OsteoCool™ Thermocouple (s) to the OsteoCool™ 2.0 RF Generator. The OsteoCool™ Thermocouple Monitor is used with the OsteoCool™ Thermocouple Introducer and enables temperature monitoring around the thermal ablation zones during procedures.
This document describes the OsteoCool™ 2.0 RF Ablation System and its substantial equivalence to a predicate device (OsteoCool™ RF Ablation System, K182497 S.E. 12/17/2018). The information provided focuses on the device's characteristics and the testing performed, rather than a study proving the device meets acceptance criteria in the context of an AI/ML model for medical imaging, as might be implied by the prompt's structured questions.
However, interpreting "acceptance criteria" as the criteria for demonstrating substantial equivalence for a medical device and "device performance" as the data presented to support this claim, I will attempt to answer the questions based on the provided text.
The provided text does NOT describe an AI/ML device or a study involving human readers and AI assistance for an imaging application. Therefore, many of the questions regarding AI/ML specific criteria, ground truth establishment, expert adjudication, MRMC studies, and training/test set details are not applicable (N/A) to this document.
The document details the physical device's technical specifications and bench-top testing to demonstrate substantial equivalence to a prior version.
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance
Based on the document, the "acceptance criteria" are implied by the substantial equivalence demonstration, which relies on showing that the new device has "the same fundamental scientific technology, including principles of operation and mechanism of action" and performs comparably to the predicate device through various tests.
| Acceptance Criteria (Implied for Substantial Equivalence to Predicate Device) | Reported Device Performance (Summary from "Performance Data") |
|---|---|
| Functional Equivalence: Device delivers controlled RF energy for ablation. | The OsteoCool™ 2.0 RF Ablation System delivers controlled radiofrequency (RF) energy in a bipolar manner with a cooling mechanism to facilitate RF lesions in target tissue. The generator, pump, and probes work together to deliver RF energy and circulate cooling water, consistent with the principle of operation. |
| Safety and Performance Compliance: Meets mechanical, electrical, biocompatibility, data integrity, temperature accuracy, cleaning, connectivity, and usability requirements. | Bench top testing was performed to demonstrate substantial equivalence. System components were subjected to the following verification and validation tests, as applicable: mechanical, electrical, biocompatibility, data integrity, temperature accuracy, cleaning, connectivity, and usability. The document states these tests were performed and implies successful completion to support substantial equivalence. |
| Comparative Ablation Characteristics: Produces comparable lesion size and thermal effects to the predicate device. | Bench-top validation testing was performed for the OsteoCool™ 2.0 RF Ablation System using ex-vivo tissue and product usage in cadaveric bone as per the guidance. Lesion size (length and width) was measured during ex-vivo testing at the 50 degree C isotherm. Color change due to blood coagulation at elevated temperatures between thermally affected tissue and raw tissue was evaluated. (The document states these measurements were taken but does not provide the specific numerical results of the lesion sizes or a direct comparison to the predicate's performance, only that it "demonstrated substantial equivalence" through these tests). |
The product being reviewed is an RF ablation system, a physical medical device, not a software/AI system for diagnostics from imaging data. Therefore, the following AI/ML-specific questions are largely not applicable.
2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance:
- Sample Size for Test Set: The document mentions "ex-vivo tissue" and "cadaveric bone" were used for bench-top validation testing. It does not specify the number of samples (e.g., number of tissue blocks, cadaveric segments) used.
- Data Provenance: The testing was "bench-top testing" performed by the manufacturer (Medtronic Sofamor Danek USA Inc.). It is laboratory testing; thus, it is not "country of origin of the data" in the sense of patient data, nor is it retrospective or prospective in the clinical study sense. It is laboratory product validation.
3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts:
- N/A. This is a physical device being tested for its functional performance (e.g., lesion creation, electrical safety), not an AI/ML system requiring expert-annotated ground truth from medical images.
4. Adjudication method (e.g., 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set:
- N/A. Not applicable to physical device bench 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:
- N/A. This is a physical RF ablation device, not an AI/ML software for image interpretation or diagnosis.
6. If a standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done:
- N/A. This is a physical device designed for human use in a medical procedure. It is not an algorithm that functions in a "standalone" capacity.
7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.):
- The "ground truth" for this device's performance would be the physical measurements of the lesions created (length, width, temperature isotherm), electrical parameters, and material biocompatibility, as determined by standard laboratory techniques and instruments, not expert consensus on medical images or pathology from human subjects.
8. The sample size for the training set:
- N/A. This device is not an AI/ML model that undergoes "training." Its performance is based on its engineered design and physical properties.
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established:
- N/A. Not applicable as there is no "training set" for this physical device.

To achieve additional levels of fixation, CD Horizon™ Spinal System rods may be connected to the Vertex™ Reconstruction System with the Vertex™ rod connector. Refer to the Vertex™ Reconstruction System package insert for a list of Vertex™ indications.
CD Horizon™ Fenestrated Screw Set
The CD Horizon™ Fenestrated Screw Set consists of a variety of cannulated screws. These screws contain a series of fenestrations which allows polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) bone cement (Medtronic HV-R™ Fenestrated Screw Cement or Kyphon™ Xpede™ Bone Cement) to be injected into the treated site. This cement is used to augment screw fixation into the pedicle in patients whose life expectancy is of insufficient duration to permit achievement of fusion. These implants may also serve as traditional pedicle screws when used without bone cement in patients.
CD Horizon™ Fenestrated Screws are specifically designed to connect to appropriate rods and associated connecting components contained within the CD Horizon™ Spinal System. Refer to the CD Horizon™ Spinal System package insert for information regarding those implants. Care should be taken so the correct components are used in the spinal construct.
CD Horizon™ Fenestrated Screw Set implant components are fabricated from medical grade titanium and/or medical grade titanium alloy and/or medical grade cobalt-chromium-molybdenum alloy. Never use stainless steel and titanium implant components in the same construct.
Do not use CD Horizon™ Fenestrated Screw implants with components from any system other than the CD Horizon™ Spinal System.
CD Horizon™ Spinal System
The CD Horizon™ Spinal System consists of a variety of shapes and sizes of rods, hooks, screws, Crosslink™ Plates, staples, and connecting components, as well as implant components from other Medtronic spinal systems which can be rigidly locked into a variety of configurations, with each construct being tailor-made for the individual case.
CD Horizon™ Spinal System implant components are fabricated from medical grade stainless steel, medical grade titanium, titanium alloy, medical grade cobalt-chromium-molybdenum alloy, or medical grade PEEK Optima-LT1.
The provided text does not describe a study involving an AI/ML device or its acceptance criteria. Instead, it is an FDA 510(k) clearance letter for a Class II medical device (Thoracolumbosacral Pedicle Screw System), specifically the Medtronic CD Horizon™ ModuLeX™ FNS Screw Set and CD Horizon™ ModuLeX™ Spinal System.
The document discusses:
- Device Description: Spinal screws, rods, and associated components used for spinal fixation.
- Indications for Use: Various spinal conditions like degenerative disc disease, spondylolisthesis, trauma, etc., for which the device can be used as an adjunct to fusion, or to restore spinal column integrity for a limited time in tumor patients when augmented with bone cement.
- Predicate Devices: The new devices are compared to previously cleared Medtronic spinal systems (K201362 and K221244) to establish substantial equivalence.
- Performance Data: The performance data primarily consists of mechanical/bench testing conducted according to ASTM standards (ASTM F1798 and ASTM F1717) to demonstrate that the new device has similar design features and does not present a new worst-case compared to the predicate devices. A risk analysis was also performed.
Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information regarding acceptance criteria, study details, expert review, or ground truth for an AI/ML device, as this information is not present in the provided document. The document focuses on demonstrating the mechanical equivalence of a physical implantable medical device to existing predicate devices, not the performance of an AI/ML algorithm.
