    AI/ML Overview

    This document is a 510(k) summary for the Renovis S141 Lumbar Interbody Cage System. It primarily focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices based on indications for use, materials, dimensions, function, and mechanical testing. It is not a study that proves a device meets acceptance criteria in the sense of a clinical trial or an AI/software performance study.

    Therefore, many of the requested items related to AI/software performance, ground truth, expert adjudication, and clinical study details are not applicable or cannot be extracted from this type of regulatory submission. This document describes mechanical performance testing against established standards, not a clinical study with human subjects, AI algorithms, or expert readers.

    Here's a breakdown of what can be extracted and what cannot:

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

    Acceptance CriteriaReported Device Performance
    Testing Standards:The Renovis S141 Lumbar Interbody Cage System was tested according to:
    ASTM F2077- Static and dynamic axial compression
    ASTM F2267- Subsidence
    - Expulsion
    Outcome:Test results demonstrate that the Renovis S141 Lumbar Interbody Cage System is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.

    Note: The document states the device was tested to these standards and found substantially equivalent, but it does not provide specific numerical acceptance criteria or performance metrics for each test (e.g., "subsidence must be less than X mm, and observed subsidence was Y mm"). It only states the overall conclusion of substantial equivalence.

    Regarding the other requested information:

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

      • Not Applicable / Not Provided. This document describes mechanical testing of physical devices, not a study involving human patient data or software/AI. The "test set" here refers to the physical samples of the interbody cage system tested mechanically. The sample size for these mechanical tests is not specified, nor is data provenance in the context of clinical/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)

      • Not Applicable. Ground truth in the context of expert review applies to diagnostic devices or AI, not mechanical orthopedic implants. The "ground truth" for mechanical testing is defined by the physical properties and performance characteristics measured against engineering standards.
    • 4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set

      • Not Applicable. Adjudication is relevant for expert review or clinical event assessment, not for mechanical testing of physical devices.
    • 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 a mechanical device, not an AI or diagnostic imaging device. Therefore, no MRMC study, human readers, or AI assistance is involved.
    • 6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the loop performance) was done

      • Not Applicable. This is a physical medical device (lumbar interbody cage system), not an algorithm or software. No standalone algorithm performance was assessed.
    • 7. The type of ground truth used (expert concensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc)

      • Not Applicable. For mechanical testing, the "ground truth" is defined by the established engineering standards (ASTM F2077 and ASTM F2267) and the measured physical performance (axial compression, subsidence, expulsion).
    • 8. The sample size for the training set

      • Not Applicable. This document does not describe a machine learning algorithm, so there is no "training set."
    • 9. How the ground truth for the training set was established

      • Not Applicable. As there is no training set for a machine learning algorithm, this question is not relevant.

    AI/ML Overview

    The InterForm Interbody Cage System is intended for spinal fusion procedures.
    Here's a breakdown of the acceptance criteria and the study done:

    1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

    TestAcceptance Criteria (Implied by equivalence to predicate devices)Reported Device Performance
    Static Compression (per ASTM F2077)Comparable to predicate devicesIndicates equivalence to predicate devices
    Dynamic Compression (per ASTM F2077)Comparable to predicate devicesIndicates equivalence to predicate devices
    Subsidence (per ASTM F2267)Comparable to predicate devicesIndicates equivalence to predicate devices
    ExpulsionComparable to predicate devicesIndicates equivalence to predicate devices

    Explanation: The documentation explicitly states that the device is considered "substantially equivalent to the predicate devices in terms of intended use, design, materials used, mechanical safety and performances." The acceptance criteria, while not explicitly numerical, are therefore met by demonstrating performance comparable to the already legally marketed predicate devices. The study concludes that the results indicate the InterForm Interbody Cage System is equivalent.

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

    This information is not provided in the document. The studies listed are non-clinical tests (mechanical testing), not studies involving human or animal subjects that would generate a "test set" of data in the typical sense of evaluating AI or clinical outcomes. The provenance of the samples (e.g., specific batches of PEEK and tantalum used in testing) is not detailed, nor is it relevant given the mechanical nature of the tests.

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

    This information is not applicable as the studies are non-clinical mechanical tests, not clinical evaluations requiring expert interpretation or ground truth establishment.

    4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

    This information is not applicable as the studies are non-clinical mechanical tests.

    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, an MRMC comparative effectiveness study was not done. The document explicitly states: "No clinical studies were performed." This device is a physical medical implant, not an AI or imaging device that would typically involve human reader studies.

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

    This information is not applicable as the device is a physical medical implant and not an algorithm or AI system.

    7. The Type of Ground Truth Used

    The "ground truth" for the non-clinical tests would be the established mechanical properties and performance standards outlined in the ASTM F2077 and ASTM F2267 standards, and the performance characteristics of the predicate devices. For mechanical tests, the ground truth is objectively measured physical properties and behaviors of the material and device under specific conditions.

    8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

    This information is not applicable as the device is a physical medical implant and would not have a "training set" in the context of machine learning or AI. For mechanical testing, the "samples" would be the manufactured devices or materials subjected to the tests. The exact number of units tested for each non-clinical test (static compression, dynamic compression, subsidence, expulsion) is not specified, but it would typically be a statistically significant number of physical samples to ensure reliability and reproducibility of the results according to the ASTM standards.

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

    This information is not applicable for the same reasons as #8. The "ground truth" for material and device properties in mechanical testing is established through standardized testing procedures and validated measurement techniques, as defined by organizations like ASTM.
