The provided text does not contain information about acceptance criteria and a study proving a device meets them in the context of an AI/ML algorithm. Instead, it is an FDA 510(k) clearance letter for a SpineFrontier Lumbar Interbody Fusion Device System, which is a physical medical device (an intervertebral body fusion device).
Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information, which pertains to AI/ML device performance studies and associated details like training/test set sizes, ground truth establishment methods, or human reader effectiveness with AI assistance.
The document discusses:
- Device Name: SpineFrontier Lumbar Interbody Fusion Device System
- Regulatory Class: Class II (under 21 CFR 888.3080)
- Indications for Use: Intervertebral body fusion of the spine for skeletally mature patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) at L2-S1 (one or two contiguous levels), potentially with Grade I spondylolisthesis.
- Device Components: Made of PEEK Optima® LT1, possibly with Tantalum markers and a Titanium Coating.
- Performance Testing: "engineering rationale was performed in lieu of bench testing. No performance data was required because none of the modifications to the subject from its previous clearance under K142504 present a worst case for mechanical testing to the worst case tested for that clearance." This indicates that for this physical device modification, previous mechanical testing from the predicate device (K142504) was considered sufficient.
- Conclusion: The device is substantially equivalent to the predicate (K142504) based on similar intended uses, indications, technological characteristics, and principles of operation, with modifications raising no new safety or effectiveness questions.

A-CIFT™ SoloFuse™ is intended for stand-alone use for intervertebral body fusion of the spine of skeletally mature patients, using autogenous bone graft to facilitate fusion. The A-CIFT™ SoloFuse™ system must be used with the internal bone screws for fixation. The device is indicated for use in patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) of the cervical spine at one level from the C2-C3 disc to the C7-T1 disc. These DDD patients may also have up to Grade I spondylolisthesis or retrolisthesis at the involved level(s). Degenerative Disc Disease is defined as discogenic pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by a history and radiographic studies. These patients should be skeletally mature and have had six (6) weeks of non-operative treatment prior to the treatment with an intervertebral spacer.
The A-CIFT™ SoloFuse™ consists of a PEEK or PEEK-OPTIMA HA Enhanced spacer with titanium bone screws for intervertebral body fusion. Fixation is achieved by inserting bone screws through the openings in the spacer into the vertebral bodies of the cervical spine. The A-CIFT™ SoloFuse™ PEEK-OPTIMA HA Enhanced implants are provided sterile and irradiated by gamma radiation. The A-CIFT™ SoloFuse™ PEEK implants are provided non-sterile with instructions for sterilization. The lordotic and non-lordotic PEEK or PEEK-OPTIMA HA Enhanced spacers are provided in various sizes. The lag and rigid screws are offered in various diameters and lengths.
This document is a 510(k) premarket notification for a medical device called A-CIFT™ SoloFuse™, an intervertebral body fusion device. The purpose of this submission is to introduce a new material (PEEK-OPTIMA HA Enhanced) for an already cleared device.
Based on the provided text, there is no information about acceptance criteria or a study demonstrating the device meets such criteria in terms of clinical performance or algorithm performance. The document focuses on showing substantial equivalence to a predicate device, primarily through a change in material and a "Failure Effects Analysis" (FEA) instead of mechanical testing.
Here's an analysis of what information is not present related to your request:
- A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance: This is not provided. The submission focuses on substantial equivalence based on design changes (material), not a new performance evaluation against specific criteria.
- Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance: Not applicable as no new performance testing study is presented.
- Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts: Not applicable.
- Adjudication method for the test set: Not applicable.
- If a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done: No, an MRMC study was not done. The document states, "No performance testing is being included as part of this submission."
- If a standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done: Not applicable. This device is an implantable medical device, not an AI/algorithm-based diagnostic or therapeutic tool.
- The type of ground truth used: Not applicable.
- The sample size for the training set: Not applicable.
- How the ground truth for the training set was established: Not applicable.
Summary based on the provided text:
The submission for the A-CIFT™ SoloFuse™ is a 510(k) premarket notification to introduce a new material (PEEK-OPTIMA HA Enhanced) for an existing device. It relies on the concept of substantial equivalence to previously cleared predicate devices (K151198 and K142026).
The document explicitly states: "No performance testing is being included as part of this submission. Failure Effects Analysis (FEA) was used in lieu of mechanical testing to show substantial equivalence to the previously cleared design."
Therefore, the submission does not include:
- Acceptance criteria for device performance.
- New studies with test sets, training sets, expert ground truth establishment, or MRMC studies.
Instead, the conclusion is based on "overall technology characteristics and mechanical performance data" (which, for this submission, appears to be primarily the FEA and comparison to the predicate) leading to the conclusion that the device is "safe and effective and substantially equivalent to the previously cleared product."

This document is an FDA 510(k) premarket notification for a medical device called the Arena-C® HA PEEK Cervical Intervertebral Body Fusion Device. It focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to previously cleared devices rather than presenting a study of its own clinical performance against acceptance criteria in the way an AI/ML device would. Therefore, most of the questions about acceptance criteria, sample sizes, ground truth, and expert adjudication are not applicable (N/A) in this context.
Here's an analysis based on the provided text, addressing the questions where information is available or applicable:
1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance
Acceptance Criteria (Not explicitly stated as such for clinical performance, but implied through substantial equivalence to predicate devices for mechanical properties) | Reported Device Performance (from "PERFORMANCE DATA") |
---|---|
Mechanical integrity for intended use (e.g., sufficient strength to withstand spinal loads) | The device underwent mechanical testing according to ASTM standards (F2077, F2267, Draft Standard F-04.25.02.02) for static axial compression, torsion, compressive shear, subsidence, expulsion, and dynamic axial compression and torsion. The device also underwent material characterization, including biocompatibility (ISO 10993) and retention of HA and mechanical performance after artificial aging. |
Biocompatibility | Biocompatibility of PEEK-OPTIMA® HA Enhanced per ISO 10993, including an in-bone study using a large animal model and fusion assessment. |
Conclusion: "The results of this non-clinical testing show that the strength of the Arena-C® HA PEEK Cervical Intervertebral Body Fusion Device is sufficient for its intended use and is substantially equivalent to legally marketed predicate devices." |
2. Sample sized 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: The document describes non-clinical performance testing (mechanical and material characterization). It does not specify sample sizes for these tests, which are typically determined by engineering standards rather than statistical clinical trial sample size calculations.
- Data provenance: N/A. The data is from laboratory performance testing, not human patient data.
- Retrospective or prospective: N/A. This refers to a study design on human subjects, which is not applicable 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)
- N/A. This device is an implant, and its performance is evaluated through mechanical testing and material characterization, not by human experts establishing ground truth for diagnostic imaging or similar.
4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set
- N/A. No human adjudication is involved in the performance testing of this device type.
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 not an AI/ML medical device, and therefore, an MRMC study is not relevant.
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done
- N/A. This is not an AI/ML medical device.
7. The type of ground truth used (expert concensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc)
- For mechanical testing, the "ground truth" is defined by the physical properties and performance metrics established by industry standards (e.g., ASTM F2077, F2267).
- For material characterization and biocompatibility, the "ground truth" is established by relevant ISO standards (e.g., ISO 10993) and scientific principles, potentially including animal studies for in-bone assessment.
8. The sample size for the training set
- N/A. This is not an AI/ML device, so there is no "training set."
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established
- N/A. This is not an AI/ML device.

This document is a 510(k) summary for the SpineFrontier Arena-C® Cervical Intervertebral Fusion System. It describes the device, its indications for use, and a comparison to predicate devices, but it does not contain information about acceptance criteria or a study proving the device meets those criteria in the context of device performance metrics typically reported for AI/ML devices (e.g., sensitivity, specificity, AUC). This document is for a physical medical device, an intervertebral body fusion system, not a software or AI/ML device.
Therefore, many of the requested fields cannot be answered from the provided text as they pertain to the evaluation of AI/ML software.
Here's a breakdown of what can be extracted and what cannot:
1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance
- Cannot be provided. This document does not specify quantitative acceptance criteria for device performance (e.g., success rates, complication rates) that would typically be seen in a clinical study for a physical implant, nor does it present a clinical study with detailed performance results against such criteria. The "performance testing summary" refers to "engineering rationale and finite element analysis" to show that modifications don't create new worst-case scenarios compared to a predicate device, which is a different type of "performance" than what's implied by the request.
2. Sample sized used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective)
- Cannot be provided. This document describes a submission for an add-on to an existing cleared device ("seeking add new sizes to the previously cleared Arena-C device"). It references "engineering rationale and finite element analysis" rather than a clinical study with human subjects for the new sizes.

Summary of available information from the document:
The document focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices for a physical implant rather than proving performance against specific acceptance criteria through a clinical study for the new sizes. The core of the submission for the new sizes relies on:
- Identical Indications for Use.
- Identical Materials of manufacture (Peek Optima®).
- Identical Structural support mechanism.
- "Engineering rationale and finite element analysis were used to demonstrate that the modifications to the Arena-C Cervical Intervertebral Fusion Device do not generate new worst case compared to the predicate device."
Essentially, the "study" demonstrating that the device meets criteria is primarily a biomechanical and materials equivalence assessment, not a clinical study with patient outcomes or expert reads, as would be expected for AI/ML performance evaluation.

SPINEFRONTIER, INC.
The SpineFrontier® PedFuse® Pedicle Screw System is intended to provide immobilization and stabilization of spinal segments in skeletally mature patients as an adjunct to fusion in the treatment of the following acute instabilities or deformities of the thoracic, lumbar, and sacral spine: degenerative spondylolisthesis with objective evidence of neurological impairment, fracture, dislocation, scoliosis, kyphosis, spinal tumor, and failed previous fusion (Pseudarthrosis).
In addition, the SpineFrontier® PedFuse® Pedicle Screw System is indicated for the treatment of severe spondylolisthesis (Grade 3 and 4) of the L5-S1 vertebra in skeletally mature patients receiving fusion by autogenous bone graft, with the device fixed or attached to the lumbar and sacral spine.
When used in a percutaneous approach with MIS instrumentation, the SpineFrontier® PedFuse® Pedicle Screw System is intended to provide immobilization of spinal segments in skeletally mature patients as an adjunct to fusion in the treatment of the following acute instabilities or deformities of the thoracic, lumbar, and sacral spine: degenerative spondylolisthesis with objective evidence of neurological impairment, fracture, dislocation, scoliosis, kyphosis, spinal tumor, failed previous fusion (Pseudarthrosis) and severe spondylolisthesis (Grade 3 and 4) of the L5-S1 vertebra in skeletally mature patients receiving fusion by autogenous bone graft, with the device fixed or attached to the lumbar and sacral spine.
The SpineFrontier® PedFuse® Pedicle Screw System is intended to help provide immobilization and stabilization of spinal segments as an adjunct to fusion of the thoracic, lumbar, and/or sacral spine. The system consists of longitudinal rods, polyaxial screws, and cross connector. Hydroxyapatite (HA)-coated titanium alloy screws and Cobalt Chrome (CoCr) alloy rods are added to the System in this submission.
The provided text describes a 510(k) premarket notification for a medical device, the SpineFrontier® PedFuse® Pedicle Screw System. This specific submission focuses on modifications to an already cleared device, adding hydroxyapatite (HA)-coated titanium alloy screws and Cobalt Chrome (CoCr) alloy rods.
Therefore, the performance data presented is for the mechanical substantial equivalence of these new materials and components to previously cleared versions and predicate devices, rather than a usability or clinical effectiveness study of the entire system as an AI device or a novel medical device establishing its own set of acceptance criteria.
The document does not describe the use of AI in this device, nor does it detail a study involving human readers, test sets, ground truth establishment, or training sets in the context of AI performance. The study mentioned is purely mechanical testing of the physical components.
However, I can extract information related to the mechanical performance testing conducted to demonstrate substantial equivalence, framed in the context of acceptance criteria if we interpret "acceptance criteria" as meeting the performance standards of the predicate devices.
Description of Acceptance Criteria and Study for SpineFrontier® PedFuse® Pedicle Screw System (Mechanical Performance)
This 510(k) submission (K133153) describes an update to the SpineFrontier® PedFuse® Pedicle Screw System, specifically adding Hydroxyapatite (HA)-coated titanium alloy screws and Cobalt Chrome (CoCr) alloy rods. The study presented is a mechanical performance testing summary to demonstrate that these modifications maintain adequate and substantially equivalent mechanical strength compared to previously cleared versions and predicate devices.
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance
For medical devices like pedicle screw systems, "acceptance criteria" for mechanical testing typically involve meeting or exceeding the performance established by recognized ASTM standards or demonstrating equivalence to predicate devices under those standards. The document states the purpose of the testing is to "demonstrate that the modifications... provide adequate and substantially equivalent mechanical strength for their intended use." While explicit numerical acceptance criteria are not provided in this summary, the implicit acceptance criterion is that the modified device's performance is comparable to or better than previously cleared devices and predicate devices when tested under specified ASTM standards.
Acceptance Criterion (Implicit) | Reported Device Performance |
---|---|
Mechanical Strength (Static Axial Compression Bending): Must meet or exceed performance of previously cleared PedFuse® system and predicate devices (e.g., Medtronic TSRH® Spinal System, Pioneer Quantum Spinal System, Globus Transition™ Stabilization System) as per ASTM F1717-13. | The submission states that "The PedFuse Pedicle Screw System was tested in the following modes: Static Axial Compression Bending (ASTM F1717-13)" and concludes that "The overall technology characteristics and mechanical performance data lead to the conclusion that the PedFuse® System is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices." (Specific numerical results are not provided in this summary.) |
Mechanical Strength (Static Torsion): Must meet or exceed performance of previously cleared PedFuse® system and predicate devices as per ASTM F1717-13. | "Static Torsion (ASTM F1717-13)" was performed. Conclusion: "substantially equivalent to the predicate devices." (Specific numerical results are not provided in this summary.) |
Mechanical Strength (Cyclic Axial Compression Bending): Must meet or exceed performance of previously cleared PedFuse® system and predicate devices as per ASTM F1717-13. | "Cyclic Axial Compression Bending (ASTM F1717-13)" was performed. Conclusion: "substantially equivalent to the predicate devices." (Specific numerical results are not provided in this summary.) |
Custom Instrument Testing: Must demonstrate adequate performance. | "Custom Instrument Testing" was performed. Conclusion: "substantially equivalent to the predicate devices." (Specific numerical results are not provided in this summary.) |
2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance
- Sample Size: The document does not specify the exact sample size (number of devices or test repetitions) used for each mechanical test. Mechanical testing, especially for medical devices, typically involves multiple samples to ensure statistical validity, but the specific number is not disclosed in this summary.
- Data Provenance: The testing was conducted by SpineFrontier, Inc. in support of their 510(k) submission. This is internal testing performed by the manufacturer, likely in the USA where the company is based. It is a prospective generation of data specifically for this submission.
