Medtronic Surgical Instruments are intended to be used during the preparation and placement of Medtronic implants during spinal surgery to assist the surgeon in precisely locating anatomical structures in either open, or minimally invasive, procedures. Medtronic Surgical Instruments are specifically designed for use with the MAZOR X Stealth™ Edition, which is indicated for any medical condition in which the use of stereotactic surgery may be appropriate, and where reference to a rigid anatomical structure, such as a skull, a long bone, or vertebra can be identified relative to a CT or MR-based model, fluoroscopy images, or digitized landmarks of the anatomy. Medtronic Surgical Instruments can be navigated or non-navigated manual instruments that may or may not be guided through the MAZOR X Arm Guide. Medtronic surgical drills shall only be used through the MAZOR X arm guides, Medtronic cannulas, and Medtronic drill guides. Some of the Medtronic Surgical Instruments are also compatible with the IPC™ POWEREASE™ System. An instrument may incorporate a measuring function which has uses as described on the label and the instrument.

DO NOT IMPLANT THE INSTRUMENTS

The CD HORIZON™ Spinal System surgical instruments are non-sterile, single or re-usable instruments that may be used during the preparation and placement of various Medtronic spinal implants during spinal surgery. The subject instruments are made of a variety of materials commonly used in orthopedic and neurological procedures which meet available national or international standards specifications. Single-use Medtronic Surgical instruments should never be reused under any circumstances.

The CD HORIZON™ instruments are specifically designed for use in spinal procedures with MAZOR X Stealth™ Edition. The instruments can be navigated or non-navigated manual instruments that may or may not be guided through the MAZOR X Arm Guide. Some instruments (e.g. drills, drivers, taps etc.) are also compatible with Medtronic's IPC™ POWEREASE™ System when connected to the POWEREASE™ Driver, these CD HORIZON™ instruments may or may not be guided through the MAZOR X Arm Guide. Medtronic surgical drills shall only be used through the MAZOR X arm guides, cannulas, and drill guides. Placing Medtronic single-use sterile spheres on each of the NavLock™ Tracker passive stems allow MAZOR X Stealth™ Edition to track the Medtronic instruments in the surgical field.

The document provided describes the CD HORIZON Spinal System Instruments for use with MAZOR X Stealth™ Edition. This is a medical device subject to FDA approval, specifically a 510(k) premarket notification. The document states that the device is substantially equivalent to a predicate device.

The provided text does not contain the detailed information requested regarding specific acceptance criteria, reported device performance metrics (e.g., sensitivity, specificity, accuracy), sample sizes for test or training sets, expert qualifications, or adjudication methods. The information pertains to the regulatory approval process and a general summary of performance testing.

Therefore, many parts of your request cannot be answered from the provided document. I can, however, extract the information that is present.

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

The document does not provide specific quantitative acceptance criteria or reported device performance metrics in the format of sensitivity, specificity, or accuracy, which are typical for AI/diagnostic devices. Instead, it lists general performance tests conducted.

2. Sample sized used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective)

The document does not specify the sample sizes used for any of the described tests, nor does it detail the provenance of any data (e.g., country of origin, retrospective/prospective nature). The tests are described as "simulated use" and "analysis" rather than clinical trials with patient data.

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)

The document does not mention using experts to establish ground truth for a test set. The nature of the device (surgical instruments for navigation) suggests performance testing would involve engineering and functional verification rather than expert clinical assessment of diagnostic output.

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

The document does not mention any adjudication method, as it doesn't describe expert-based ground truth establishment or a review process for a test set in the context of diagnostic performance.

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

The document does not indicate that an MRMC comparative effectiveness study was done. This device is a set of surgical instruments used with a navigation system (MAZOR X Stealth™ Edition), not typically an AI-powered diagnostic device that assists human readers.

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

This request is not applicable to the device described. The device consists of surgical instruments that are part of a system intended for human use during surgery. It is not an algorithm that can perform standalone diagnostics or analysis.

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

The concept of "ground truth" in the diagnostic sense (e.g., pathology for a diagnosis) is not directly applicable here. The "ground truth" for the performance tests would likely be engineering specifications, physical measurements, and expected functional behavior of the instruments and system. For instance, "Navigation Accuracy Analysis" would involve comparing the navigated position to an objectively measured physical position, which is a form of engineering ground truth.

8. The sample size for the training set

The document does not mention a training set specific to an AI algorithm. This device is a set of physical surgical instruments, not a machine learning model that requires training data.

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

Not applicable, as no training set for an AI algorithm is mentioned or relevant to this device description.
