The Easyspine® Posterior Spinal System is a posterior, non-cervical pedicle and non-pedicle system 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 and chronic instabilities of the thoracic, lumbar and sacral spine:

• Degenerative disc disease (defined as back pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies.
• Spondylolisthesis .
• Trauma (i.e., fracture or dislocation) .
• Spinal stenosis .
• Deformities or curvatures (i.e., scoliosis, kyphosis, and/or lordosis)
• . Tumor
• Pseudoarthrosis .
• Failed previous fusion ●

The Easyspine Spinal System is a side-loading posterior spinal pedicle fixation system consisting of various implant components. The 4.25 mm pedicle screws and curved rods represent a line extension to the previously cleared Easyspine Spinal System (K043094, K063794, and K082592). The subject devices are identical to their predicates with respect to general technological characteristics and intended use.

The provided document describes the LDR Spine Easyspine Posterior Spinal System, a medical device for spinal fixation. However, the document does NOT contain information about acceptance criteria for device performance, nor does it detail a study proving the device meets such criteria in terms of clinical or algorithm performance.

Instead, the document focuses on:

• Device Description: The Easyspine Spinal System is a side-loading posterior spinal pedicle fixation system. The K123134 submission is for a line extension of 4.25 mm pedicle screws and curved rods to an existing system.
• Indications for Use: The system is intended to provide immobilization and stabilization of spinal segments in skeletally-mature patients as an adjunct to fusion for various spinal instabilities.
• Non-Clinical Testing: This section states that non-clinical testing was performed on the proposed 4.25 mm pedicle screws in accordance with ASTM standards (F-1717 and F-1798) for static and dynamic axial compression, static torsion, axial gripping capacity, and flexion-extension cantilever.
• Conclusion: The non-clinical testing results demonstrate that the performance of the proposed LDR Spine Easyspine implants is "substantially equivalent" to their legally marketed predicates. This is the basis for the FDA's 510(k) clearance, which is a regulatory pathway to demonstrate that a new device is as safe and effective as a legally marketed predicate device.

Therefore, based on the provided text, I cannot extract the requested information regarding acceptance criteria for device performance and a study proving those criteria are met for a clinical or software-based outcome. The document describes a non-clinical (benchtop) study designed to demonstrate substantial equivalence to predicate devices based on mechanical performance standards, not a study evaluating human-in-the-loop performance, standalone algorithm performance, or using human expert ground truth.

If this were a submission for a software-as-a-medical-device (SaMD) or AI-based device, the requested information would be pertinent. However, for this spinal implant submission, the "study" is the non-clinical mechanical testing, and the "acceptance criteria" are implicitly defined by the chosen ASTM standards and the demonstration of substantial equivalence to predicate devices, rather than a quantifiable clinical performance metric.
