    AI/ML Overview

    This document is a 510(k) Premarket Notification from the FDA regarding several spinal intervertebral body fusion devices manufactured by Spinal Elements, Inc. The document states that the devices are substantially equivalent to previously marketed predicate devices and therefore do not require a premarket approval application.

    Critically, this document is a regulatory approval notice based on the substantial equivalence principle, not a study evaluating the performance of an AI/ML powered medical device. It explicitly states under "Performance Data" that: "No changes were made to the existing devices nor were any new components were added to the systems. Therefore, no additional testing was required or performed."

    As such, this document does not contain the information required to answer the prompt regarding acceptance criteria and a study that proves the device meets those criteria for an AI/ML powered medical device. The device described (intervertebral body fusion devices) is a physical implant, not a software-based AI/ML product.

    Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information based on this document.

The remote control gives the user the added advantage of controlling these functions from within the sterile field. Additionally, the system communicates with different existing, marketed accessories like power supply, tubing sets, cables, shaver sensor etc.

    AI/ML Overview

    This document is a 510(k) Summary of Safety & Effectiveness for the CONMED CrystalView™ Pro Irrigation System, comparing it to a predicate device. This type of document is typically for medical devices that are substantially equivalent to an already legally marketed device, and therefore does not usually contain extensive clinical study data (such as MRMC studies, large training/test sets for AI, or detailed ground truth methodologies) as might be seen for novel devices or AI/ML-driven diagnostics. The focus here is on bench testing and demonstrating equivalence rather than proving clinical performance against a disease gold standard.

    Based on the provided text, here is the information requested:

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

    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 primarily discusses "extensive bench testing" and "design verification and validation testing." There is no mention of a clinical "test set" with patient data. The testing described appears to be laboratory-based engineering and quality assurance testing. Therefore, information on sample size for a test set based on patient data and data provenance is not applicable.

    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)

    This information is not provided. The testing described is against engineering specifications and regulatory standards, not against "ground truth" established by experts for diagnostic performance. "User Validation" is mentioned, which might involve expert users, but no details are given about their number, qualifications, or how they established a ground truth.

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

    Not applicable, as there is no traditional "test set" for diagnostic performance described in the document that would require an adjudication method.

    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

    An MRMC comparative effectiveness study was not done. The device is an irrigation system, not an AI-driven diagnostic tool or an assistive technology for human readers/clinicians in the way an AI algorithm might be.

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

    This is not applicable. The CONMED CrystalView™ Pro Irrigation System is a physical medical device (a pump system), not an algorithm.

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

    The "ground truth" in this context refers to the device meeting its own specifications and applicable industry/regulatory standards. This includes:

    • Engineering specifications: For flow and pressure performance, reliability, electrical safety, EMC, software functionality, etc.
    • Regulatory standards: Such as IEC 60601-1-2 for electrical safety and ISO 14971 for risk management.
    • User requirements: Validated through "User Validation."

    There is no mention of expert consensus, pathology, or outcomes data being used as ground truth for the performance tests described.

    8. The sample size for the training set

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

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

    Not applicable, as there is no training set for an AI/ML algorithm.

    2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance

    The document states: "Bench tests, laboratory tests, and evaluations were completed on the proposed B+L Crystalsert Lens Delivery System (Model Cl-26). No animal or clinical testing was required for this submission."

    • Sample Size: The exact sample sizes for each nonclinical test are not specified in the provided text.
    • Data Provenance: The data provenance is from nonclinical bench and laboratory testing. The country of origin of the data is not explicitly stated, but the submitter (Bausch + Lomb) is based in St. Louis, Missouri, USA, implying the testing likely occurred within the US or by US-affiliated labs. The nature of the testing is prospective as it was conducted for the purpose of this submission.

    3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Their Qualifications

    Since this submission relies solely on nonclinical bench and laboratory testing, the concept of "ground truth" established by human experts in the way it applies to diagnostic or prognostic devices is not directly applicable. The "ground truth" for these tests would be defined by the technical specifications, standards (e.g., ISO, AAMI), and predefined acceptance criteria for each test. The individuals performing and evaluating these tests would be laboratory technicians and engineers, whose qualifications are not detailed but are assumed to be appropriate for conducting such tests.

    4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

    As the evaluation is based on objective nonclinical tests against predetermined acceptance criteria, there is no human adjudication method in the sense of a 2+1 or 3+1 design. The results are binary (Pass/Fail) based on direct measurement and comparison to specifications.

    5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study Was Done

    No, a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was not done. The document explicitly states: "No animal or clinical testing was required for this submission." This type of study is relevant for diagnostic imaging or AI devices involving human interpretation, which is not the case here.

    6. If a Standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) Was Done

    No, this is not an algorithm or AI device. It's a medical device for delivering intraocular lenses. Therefore, a standalone algorithm performance study is not applicable and was not done.

    7. The Type of Ground Truth Used

    The "ground truth" for the nonclinical tests is based on engineering specifications, established industry standards (ISO, AAMI), and predefined acceptance criteria for each test (e.g., IOL surface homogeneity, lens power, dimensions, sterility, biocompatibility). It is objective and measurable, rather than expert consensus, pathology, or outcomes data, which are typically associated with diagnostic or therapeutic efficacy studies in clinical settings.

    8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

    Not Applicable. This device is not an AI or machine learning algorithm, so there is no "training set" in the conventional sense. The device itself is manufactured, and its performance is evaluated against engineering and safety standards.

    9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established

    Not Applicable. (See point 8).

Wear debris data (number of particulates and size) indicates the device coating performs similarly to predicate Calix PC (K112036).
    Static ShearPerformance comparable to the predicate devices.Tested in accordance with ASTM F1044-05. Results used to support substantial equivalence.
    Static TensionPerformance comparable to the predicate devices.Tested in accordance with ASTM F1147-05. Results used to support substantial equivalence.
    Abrasion ResistancePerformance comparable to the predicate devices.Tested in accordance with ASTM F1978-00. Results used to support substantial equivalence.

    2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance

    The document does not explicitly state the sample sizes (e.g., number of units tested) for each mechanical test. The data provenance is derived from non-clinical bench testing conducted to support the substantial equivalence claim. There is no mention of country of origin for this testing, but it is typically conducted by the manufacturer or a contract research organization.

    3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications of Those Experts

    Not applicable. This submission relies on non-clinical bench testing and comparison to predicate device performance, not on expert-established ground truth from clinical data.

    4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

    Not applicable for non-clinical bench testing focused on mechanical properties.

    5. If a Multi-reader Multi-case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study was done

    No, an MRMC comparative effectiveness study was not done. The submission explicitly states: "Clinical Studies No clinical studies were performed."

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

    This is not applicable as the device (intervertebral body fusion device) is a physical implant, not a software algorithm. The document explicitly states: "Software Verification and Validation Testing The device does not contain software. Therefore no software verification and validation testing were performed."

    7. The Type of Ground Truth Used

    The ground truth used is based on the established performance characteristics and safety profile of the predicate devices and recognized consensus standards (e.g., ASTM, ISO) for material and mechanical testing. For the wear debris, the ground truth for comparison was specifically the predicate Calix PC (K112036).

    8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

    Not applicable. As a physical medical device, there is no "training set" in the context of machine learning or AI.

    9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established

    Not applicable. There is no training set.

    Intended Use

    Crystal® Ultra is indicated for use as a dental restoration including inlays, onlays, veneers, crowns, and bridges.
    For use by or on the order of a dental professional.

    Device Description

    The Crystal® Ultra CAD/CAM formed materials consist of interpenetrating networks of glass ceramic and polymer material to form a solid block of material. The unique marriage of the two materials creates a dual-network hybrid, which lends the positive physical properties of each individual material to the other. This results in a material with significantly lower brittleness compared to a pure ceramic and better abrasion behavior than a pure resin, (similar to natural enamel). The material is milled in a dental CAD/CAM machine into its restorative form.

    AI/ML Overview

    The provided text describes a 510(k) submission for a dental CAD/CAM material called "Crystal® Ultra." This device is a material, not an AI-powered diagnostic tool, and therefore most of the requested information about acceptance criteria, study design, and ground truth establishment for AI performance metrics are not applicable.

    However, I can extract the relevant information regarding the non-clinical performance data and how the device's equivalence was established.

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

    The submission states that bench testing was performed in accordance with FDA recognized standards and compared to predicate devices. The "acceptance criteria" here are implicitly the satisfactory performance against these standards and demonstrating substantial equivalence to the predicate devices. The reported device performance is that it met these criteria.

    Performance Metric (Standard)Acceptance Criteria (Implicit)Reported Device Performance
    Flexural Strength (ISO 6872)Comparable to predicate devicesSubstantially equivalent to predicate devices

    Modulus of ElasticityAssessed for mechanical propertiesIncluded in testing, results are satisfactory for substantial equivalence
    Biocompatibility (ISO 10993)Meets biocompatibility standards for dental materialsConcluded to be substantially equivalent in safety to predicate device

    2. Sample size 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 for the bench tests. The tests were performed in accordance with FDA recognized standards (ISO 6872, ISO 10477, ISO 7405, ISO 4049, ISO 10993). These are likely laboratory bench tests, not clinical studies involving human patients or specific geographical data provenance. Therefore, terms like "retrospective or prospective" are not applicable.

    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)

    This is not applicable as the device is a material, and the "ground truth" for its performance is established through standardized physical and chemical testing, not expert interpretation of cases.

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

    This is not applicable for a material test. The "adjudication" is based on the results of standardized laboratory tests against predefined specifications.

    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

    This is not applicable. This device is a material, not an AI or diagnostic tool that would involve human readers.

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

    This is not applicable as the device is a material, not an algorithm.

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

    The "ground truth" for this device's performance is derived from standardized physical and chemical measurements obtained through bench testing according to ISO standards (e.g., flexural strength, solubility, density). The comparison is made to the established performance characteristics of legally marketed predicate dental materials.

    8. The sample size for the training set

    This is not applicable as the device is a dental material, not an AI algorithm requiring a training set.

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

    This is not applicable as there is no training set for this type of device.

    Intended Use

    The Crystalsert Delivery System is intended to be used to fold and deliver the Crystalens accommodating intraocular lens and other intraocular lens identifying the Crystalsert Delivery System in their approved labeling.

    Device Description

    The Crystalsert Delivery System is a device used for folding and delivering the Crystalens accommodating intraocular lens (AT-52SE, AT-50SE, HD520, HD500, AT50AO, AT52AO), Trulign™ Toric, and other IOLs indicating use of the Crystalsert Delivery System in their approved labeling into the eye. The Crystalsert Delivery System consists of a syringe shaped body and tip with a plunger and drawer. The Crystalsert Delivery System is a sterile, disposable plastic device, with a small tubular pathway in which the lens can be placed into the eye with one continuous motion, designed for single use only.

    AI/ML Overview

    The provided document describes the Bausch & Lomb Crystalsert Delivery System, an intraocular lens guide. It outlines the device's description, indications for use, and a comparison to a predicate device. However, the document does not contain a study that proves the device meets specific acceptance criteria in the format typically expected for clinical or performance studies with quantitative results.

    Instead, the submission focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device (K123736, Crystalsert Delivery System) based on similar indications for use, contraindications, materials, single-use nature, sterility, sterilization method, sterility assurance level, and shelf life.

    The "Brief Summary of Nonclinical Test and Results" section states: "The Crystalsert Delivery System has successfully undergone functional and biocompatibility testing and was found in conformance with the requirements set forth in respective standards." However, it does not provide specific acceptance criteria or the reported device performance from these tests. The details of these tests (e.g., sample sizes, methodology, and quantitative results) are not included in this summary document.

    Therefore, most of the requested information regarding acceptance criteria and a study demonstrating the device meets these criteria cannot be extracted from the provided text.

    Here's an attempt to answer the questions based only on the information available in the provided text, with explicit notes where information is missing:


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

    The document does not provide a table of explicit, quantified acceptance criteria with corresponding performance data from a specific study. Instead, it relies on demonstrating equivalence to a predicate device by matching various characteristics.

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

    • Sample Size: Not specified in the provided summary.
    • Data Provenance: Not specified in the provided summary. The summary only states that "functional and biocompatibility testing" was performed.

    3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts

    This information is not applicable and not provided. The document describes a medical device (an IOL delivery system), and the testing mentioned (functional, biocompatibility) typically involves engineering and laboratory assessments against standards, rather than expert-derived ground truth as might be seen in diagnostic AI.

    4. Adjudication method for the test set

    Not applicable and not provided, as the tests mentioned are functional and biocompatibility, not expert-based assessment requiring adjudication.

    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

    Not applicable. This device is a delivery system, not an AI-assisted diagnostic tool for human readers.

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

    Not applicable. This device is a physical delivery system, not an algorithm.

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

    For the functional and biocompatibility testing, the "ground truth" would be adherence to established industry standards or internal specifications for mechanical performance and biological safety. The specific standards or specifications are not detailed in this summary.

    8. The sample size for the training set

    Not applicable. This device is a physical product, not an AI algorithm requiring a training set.

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

    The Crystalsert Delivery System is intended to be used to fold and deliver the Crystalens accommodating intraocular lens and other intraocular lenses identifying the Crystalsert delivery system in their approved labeling.

    Device Description

    The Crystalsert Delivery System is a sterile, single-use device used to fold and insert an intraocular lens through surgical procedure into a human eye. The system provides a tubular pathway through an incision over the iris, allowing delivery of an IOL into the capsular bag.

    AI/ML Overview

    The provided document describes the Bausch & Lomb Crystalsert Delivery System, a device for inserting intraocular lenses. However, it does not contain a study to prove the device meets acceptance criteria in the context of an AI/ML algorithm or a typical clinical trial with acceptance criteria for performance metrics like sensitivity, specificity, or accuracy.

    Instead, this 510(k) submission focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device through comparative analysis and functional testing against an international standard.

    Therefore, I cannot fulfill all parts of your request as the information is not present in the provided text. I will address the parts that are relevant to this type of device submission.

    Here's the breakdown of what can be extracted from the provided text:

    1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

    This document does not present acceptance criteria or reported performance in the typical format of a study for an AI/ML device (e.g., sensitivity, specificity thresholds). Instead, safety and effectiveness are established through demonstrating equivalence to a predicate device and conformance to an international standard.

    Acceptance Criteria (Implicit)Reported Device Performance

    Shelf life12 months (matches predicate)
    Indications for UseIntended to be used to fold and deliver the Crystalens accommodating intraocular lens and other intraocular lenses identifying the Crystalsert delivery system in their approved labeling (expanded from predicate but still functionally equivalent).

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

    Not applicable for this type of device submission. This is a medical device for IOL insertion, not an AI/ML algorithm evaluated on a data set. The "test set" would be the functional testing of the device itself (e.g., number of units tested during engineering verification), which is not explicitly stated but implied by the "successful functional testing" claim. Data provenance like country of origin or retrospective/prospective is not relevant here.

    3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts

    Not applicable. Ground truth for an AI/ML algorithm is not relevant. The "ground truth" for this device would be its ability to correctly fold and insert an IOL, which is assessed via engineering and performance testing against a standard. Experts would be engineers and quality control personnel.

    4. Adjudication method for the test set

    Not applicable. Adjudication methods (e.g., 2+1) are for human interpretation of data for AI/ML algorithm training/testing. This device relies on objective functional testing against a standard.

    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

    Not applicable. This is not an AI-assisted diagnostic or prognostic device for human readers.

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

    Not applicable. This device is a manual tool, not an algorithm.

    7. The type of ground truth used

    For this device, the "ground truth" is established by conformance to an international standard (ISO 11979-3, section 5) and successful functional performance specifications for its intended use (folding and inserting an IOL without damage). This is validated through engineering and performance testing.

    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

    Intended Use

    The Crystalsert™ Crystalens® Delivery System is intended to be used to fold and deliver the Crystalens® (AT-50SE, AT-52SE, HD520 and HD500) accommodating intraocular lens into the capsular bag.

    Device Description

    The Crystalsert consists of a plunger, body, drawer and inserter tip. All of the components are manufactured with medical grade polypropylene. There is also a stainless steel spring for the plunger return. The plunger tip is 2.8 mm that requires the lens to be folded when delivered. The body has a loading dock area for placement of the lens with forceps with an additional notch to allow for correct haptic placement. Once the lens is placed in the loading dock, the drawer is pressed closed and then the plunger can be depressed to deliver the lens. Finger flanges are also built onto the body to assist in the deliver.

    AI/ML Overview

    The provided document describes the Crystalsert™ Crystalens® Delivery System, an intraocular lens inserter. It is a 510(k) submission, which means it aims to demonstrate substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device, rather than proving de novo safety and effectiveness through extensive clinical trials.

    Therefore, the study information requested (e.g., sample size for test/training sets, number of experts for ground truth, MRMC studies, standalone performance) is not applicable or not provided in this type of submission. 510(k) clearances typically rely on performance testing that demonstrates the device meets its design specifications and functions as intended, aligning with the predicate device.

    Here's a breakdown of the available information:

    1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

    The document does not explicitly present a table of "acceptance criteria" in the sense of performance metrics with specific thresholds that would be used in a clinical study to quantify device efficacy (e.g., sensitivity, specificity for a diagnostic device). Instead, it focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device (MPort (MP-30)) by comparing technological characteristics and intended use. The "performance" assessment is implied through validation activities.

    Feature/CharacteristicPredicate Device (MPort (MP-30))Subject Device (Crystalsert Inserter)Comparison/Assessment
    Operating PrincipleLens loaded through loading deck, pushed into position by closing drawer. Lens lays flat. Haptic puller used. Delivered by direct forward motion of syringe-type plunger. Single lens inserted through 3 mm tip, folded when pushed.Lens loaded into loading dock in unfolded flat state. Put in proper position by closing drawer. No haptic puller necessary. Delivered by direct forward motion of syringe-type plunger. Single lens inserted through 2.8 mm tip, folded when pushed.Substantially Equivalent: Both operate on the principle of folding and delivering an IOL via a plunger. The Crystalsert has a slightly smaller tip (2.8mm vs 3mm) and eliminates the need for a haptic puller by having a notch in the loading area for correct haptic placement, which could be considered an enhancement while maintaining the core operating principle.
    DesignPlunger, inserter body, drawer, haptic puller. Loading dock attached to end of body.Plunger, inserter body, drawer. Loading dock attached to end of body. Additional notch cut in loading area for correct haptic placement.Substantially Equivalent: Core components are the same. The Crystalsert removed the haptic puller and added a notch in the loading area, a design modification to improve usability while achieving the same function.
    MaterialMedical Grade Polypropylene with PA-208 lubricant. Stainless steel plunger return spring. Silicone plunger O-ring.Body and drawer: Medical Grade Polypropylene (Huntsman) with 1% InCon GMB#2 Lubricant. Plunger: medical grade polypropylene (BP Amoco). Stainless steel plunger return spring. No plunger O-ring.Substantially Equivalent: Both use medical-grade polypropylene and stainless steel springs. Differences in specific lubricant, polypropylene supplier, and absence of an O-ring for the Crystalsert are considered minor material differences for a 510(k) submission, likely supported by biocompatibility and performance testing (not detailed here).
    Intended Use/Indications for UseThe Mport Foldable Lens Placement system is indicated for compressing and inserting a Soflex™ series multi-piece intraocular lens into the eye during small incision cataract surgery.The Crystalsert™ Crystalens delivery system is intended to be used to fold and deliver the Crystalens® (AT-50SE, AT-52SE, HD520 and HD500) accommodating intraocular lens into the capsular bag.Substantially Equivalent: Both are IOL delivery systems for cataract surgery. The specific IOL models differ, as the Crystalsert is designed for Crystalens, but the fundamental function (folding and delivering an IOL) is the same.
    Cleaning/Sterilization InformationEtO sterilized to SAL of 10-6. Single use. 6-month shelf life.SameIdentical: No differences reported.
    Validations (IOL/Viscoelastic compatibility)Validated for use with LI61U, LI51U, C31UB and Silens6/Soflex 2. Bausch & Lomb Ocucoat Viscoelastic and Amvisc viscoelastics can used.Validated with Crystalens models AT-50SE or AT-52SE and validated with Bausch & Lomb Viscoelastic Amvisc Plus.Functionally Equivalent: Both are validated for specific IOLs and viscoelastics. The specific models differ, as expected, given the Crystalsert's intended use with Crystalens. This indicates internal testing was performed to ensure compatibility and proper function for its indications.

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

    • Not applicable / Not provided. As a 510(k) submission for an IOL delivery system, the "test set" would typically refer to the various IOLs and viscoelastic materials validated for use with the device and performance testing to ensure the device consistently delivers these IOLs without damage. Specific sample sizes for such tests are not detailed in this summary. Data provenance is also not specified as there are no clinical trials mentioned.

    3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts

    • Not applicable / Not provided. Ground truth, in the context of diagnostic device validation, is not relevant here. For a device like an IOL inserter, the "truth" is whether it successfully delivers the IOL undamaged, which is determined through engineering and performance testing.

    4. Adjudication method for the test set

    • Not applicable / Not provided. Adjudication methods are typically used in clinical studies with human readers/assessors. For a mechanical device, performance is evaluated against defined specifications.

    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

    • Not applicable / Not provided. This type of study is relevant for diagnostic or AI-assisted devices that involve human interpretation of results. This device is an IOL delivery system.

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

    • Not applicable / Not provided. This is also relevant for AI-powered diagnostic devices. The Crystalsert is a mechanical delivery system. Its "standalone performance" would be assessed by its ability to reliably fold and insert an IOL, which is implied by the "Validations" section.

    7. The type of ground truth used

    • Not applicable / Not provided. For this type of device, ground truth would be synonymous with demonstrable mechanical performance and successful, undamaged IOL delivery, established through bench testing and engineering validation, rather than expert consensus, pathology, or outcomes data from a clinical trial.

    8. The sample size for the training set

    • Not applicable / Not provided. Training sets are used for machine learning algorithms.

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

    • Not applicable / Not provided. Training sets are used for machine learning algorithms.

    In summary, this 510(k) submission focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device through a comparison of technological characteristics, materials, and intended use, supported by internal validation testing (e.g., IOL compatibility). It does not involve the types of clinical studies or AI-related assessments that would provide the requested information about sample sizes, expert ground truth, or reader studies.

    Intended Use

    When used as a vertebral body replacement, the Crystal device is intended for use in the thoracic and/or thoracolumbar spine (T1-L5) to replace a collapsed, damaged, or unstable vertebral body resected or excised (i.e., partial or total vertebrectomy procedures) due to tumor or trauma (i.e., fracture). This device is intended to be used with supplemental spinal fixation systems that have been cleared for use in the thoracic and/or lumbar spine (i.e., posterior pedicle screw and rod systems, anterior plate systems, and anterior screw and rod systems). The interior of the spacer can be packed with allograft or autograft. When used as an intervertebral body fusion device, the Crystal device is intended for spinal fusion procedures at one level (C3-C7) in skeletally mature patients with degenerative disc disease (defined as back pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies) of the cervical spine. Implants are to be implanted via an open, anterior approach and packed with autogenous bone.

    Device Description

    Spinal Elements' Crystal device is a generally box-shaped devices with various holes located throughout its geometry and teeth on the superior and inferior surfaces. The device may be made from titanium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V) or polyetheretherketone (PEEK).

    AI/ML Overview

    Here is an analysis of the provided 510(k) summary regarding the Crystal® device:

    Acceptance Criteria and Device Performance Study for Crystal®

    The provided document describes a 510(k) premarket notification for the Crystal® Intervertebral Body Fusion Device. It outlines the device's description, intended use, and a claim of substantial equivalence. However, it does not explicitly detail acceptance criteria or a clinical study proving device performance against those criteria in the way a typical AI/software device submission would.

    For medical devices, particularly those claiming substantial equivalence, the "acceptance criteria" are often implied by meeting the performance characteristics of the predicate device(s) and relevant FDA guidance. The "study" typically refers to specific testing (mechanical, biocompatibility, etc.) that demonstrates the device's safety and effectiveness for its intended use, aligning with the performance of predicate devices.

    Based on the provided text, here is the information:


    1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

    Note: The document does not provide a table of explicit acceptance criteria or detailed performance metrics from a clinical study. Instead, it states that the device was found substantially equivalent to predicate devices based on mechanical testing. The "acceptance criteria" can be inferred as meeting the mechanical performance standards of similar legally marketed intervertebral body fusion devices.

    Acceptance Criterion (Inferred)Reported Device Performance
    Biomechanical/Mechanical Performance: Capable of performing in accordance with its intended use (stability, load-bearing capacity, fatigue resistance, etc.) as demonstrated by comparison to predicate devices."Mechanical testing indicates that the Crystal device is capable of performing in accordance with its intended use." The product was found "substantially equivalent" to predicate intervertebral body fusion devices.
    Material Biocompatibility: Materials (Ti-6Al-4V or PEEK) are biocompatible and safe for implantation.(Not explicitly stated as a test result, but implied by the use of commonly accepted medical-grade materials and the substantial equivalence claim).
    Device Design/Dimensions: Physical characteristics, including holes for bone graft and teeth for stability, are comparable to predicate devices."Crystal was shown to be substantially equivalent through comparison to predicate intervertebral body fusion devices."

    2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance

    • Test Set Sample Size: Not applicable in the context of this 510(k) submission. This document describes mechanical testing and a comparison to predicate devices, not a clinical trial with a "test set" of patients.
    • Data Provenance: Not applicable. The "data" refers to mechanical test results, which would have been generated in a laboratory setting.

    3. Number of Experts Used to Establish Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications

    • Not applicable. There was no "ground truth" derived from human experts in the context of a clinical test set for this type of device submission. Ground truth for mechanical devices is typically established through recognized engineering standards and validated testing methodologies.

    4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

    • Not applicable. There was no clinical test set requiring an adjudication method.

    5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study

    • No MRMC study was done. This device is a passive implantable medical device (an intervertebral body fusion device), not an imaging or AI-assisted diagnostic tool that would typically involve an MRMC study.

    6. Standalone (Algorithm Only Without Human-in-the-Loop Performance) Study

    • Not applicable. This is a physical medical device, not an algorithm or software. Therefore, the concept of "standalone performance" for an algorithm is not relevant.

    7. Type of Ground Truth Used

    • Mechanical Performance Standards and Predicate Device Characteristics: The "ground truth" for this device's performance would be the established biomechanical properties and safety profiles of legally marketed predicate intervertebral body fusion devices, as demonstrated through adherence to relevant ASTM or ISO standards for spinal implants, and successful performance in preclinical mechanical testing (e.g., compression, shear, fatigue, expulsion resistance).

    8. Sample Size for the Training Set

    • Not applicable. This is a physical medical device, not a software or AI device that requires a "training set."

    9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established

    • Not applicable, as there was no training set.

    Summary of the K073351 Filing:

    The provided 510(k) summary for the Crystal® Intervertebral Body Fusion Device indicates that substantial equivalence was established through mechanical testing comparing Crystal® to legally marketed predicate intervertebral body fusion devices. The FDA's letter concurs with this determination, allowing the device to be marketed. This type of filing for a physical implantable device relies heavily on engineering data and material science rather than clinical trials with patient populations or studies involving expert consensus on images, which are more common for AI/software devices.
