    The document provided is a 510(k) summary for the LEUCADIA™ Pedicle Screw System. It details the device's indications for use and states that biomechanical performance tests were conducted to demonstrate substantial equivalence to a predicate device.

    However, the provided text does not include an acceptance criteria table, reported device performance metrics against specific criteria, or details regarding studies that would involve human readers, ground truth establishment, or sample sizes related to clinical or image-based performance. The study described is a series of biomechanical tests.

    Therefore, many of the requested items cannot be extracted from this document.

    Here's what can be extracted based on the provided text:

    1. Table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance

    Acceptance CriteriaReported Device Performance
    (Not explicitly defined in terms of specific pass/fail values in the document)"The test results were equivalent to the predicate device and/or other similar implants and are sufficient for in vivo loading."

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

    • Sample Size for test set: Not applicable for biomechanical tests in the context of clinical or image-based studies. The "test set" here refers to the biomechanical testing of the device components.
    • Data Provenance: The tests are biomechanical in nature, conducted on the device components themselves, not on patient data.

    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 this context would be related to biomechanical standards and measurements, not expert clinical assessment.

    4. Adjudication method for the test set

    • Not applicable. Biomechanical tests follow standardized protocols (e.g., ASTM F1717, F1798, F543). The "adjudication" is based on meeting the requirements of these standards or demonstrating equivalence to a predicate device.

    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, a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) study was not done. This device is a pedicle screw system, a physical implant, not an AI-powered diagnostic or assistive tool.

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

    • No, a standalone (algorithm only) performance study was not done. This device is a physical implant.

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

    • The "ground truth" for the biomechanical tests would be the quantitative measurements dictated by the ASTM standards (e.g., force, displacement, torque values) and comparison to established predicate device performance or industry benchmarks for in vivo loading sufficiency.

    8. The sample size for the training set

    • Not applicable. This is not an AI/ML device that requires a training set.

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

    • Not applicable. This is not an AI/ML device that requires a training set.

    Study details (from the document):
