    Overall Substantial Equivalence: Must be substantially equivalent in intended use, design, material, performance, and function."The ASTRA Spine System is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices in terms of indications for use, design, material, performance and function."

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

    This is a physical device, and the "test set" refers to the tested device components.

    • Sample Size: Not explicitly stated in terms of number of components tested for each test, but standard engineering practices for medical device testing would involve a sufficient number (e.g., n=5 or n=10 per test) to ensure statistical significance, though the exact numbers are not provided in this summary.
    • Data Provenance: The tests are non-clinical, meaning they were conducted in a laboratory setting. There is no patient data provenance (e.g., country of origin, retrospective/prospective) since no human data was used for these mechanical tests.

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

    • Not Applicable. For mechanical testing of a physical device, ground truth is established by standardized testing protocols (e.g., ASTM standards) and measured physical properties, not by expert consensus on clinical data. Engineers and lab technicians perform and analyze the tests according to these standards.

    4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

    • Not Applicable. There is no adjudication in the sense of reconciling human expert opinions for clinical images or data. The results of mechanical tests are objective measurements against defined criteria.

    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 physical spinal implant, not an AI/ML diagnostic or assistive device. No MRMC studies were performed.

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

    • Not Applicable. This is a physical spinal implant; there is no algorithm or standalone performance.

    7. The Type of Ground Truth Used

    • Mechanical Test Standards and Predicate Device Performance: The "ground truth" for the non-clinical tests is based on the established performance characteristics and safety profiles of legally marketed predicate devices, as defined by FDA regulations for substantial equivalence, and adherence to relevant ASTM standards (ASTM F1717 and ASTM F1798).

    8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

    • Not Applicable. This is a physical device; there is no AI/ML model or "training set" in the context of machine learning. The device design and materials are based on engineering principles and knowledge of predicate devices.

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

    • Not Applicable. As there is no training set for an AI/ML model, this question is not relevant. The "ground truth" for developing the physical device is based on established biomechanical and medical understanding of spinal fixation and the performance of existing, cleared devices.

    Device Description

    The STRYKER Spine thoraco-lumbar spinal fixation systems, subject of this 510(k), are non-cervical, pedicle and non-pedicle fixation systems comprised of screws, rods, plates, hooks, connectors, washers and staples. The components are manufactured from either Titanium (Titanium Alloy and CP Titanium), Stainless Steel or Cobalt-Chromium-Molybdenum Alloy (Vitallium®). This Special 510(k) submission seeks clearance for sterile labeling of the listed STRYKER Spine thoraco-lumbar spinal fixation systems. All of the components of the subject devices will be sterilized by gamma radiation, a traditional sterilization method as per FDA guidance document, Updated 510(k) Sterility Review Guidance K90-1; Guidance for Industry and FDA.

    AI/ML Overview

    This is a 510(k) Premarket Notification for sterile packaging of a range of spinal systems. The key claim is substantial equivalence to previously cleared non-sterile versions of the same devices. Therefore, the "device" in question for this submission is specifically the sterile packaging and the sterilization process, not the spinal implant itself as a medical device performing a physiological function. The "performance" being evaluated is the ability to maintain sterility and the structural integrity of the device within its packaging over its shelf life.

    Here's the breakdown of the acceptance criteria and the study that proves the device meets them:

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

    Acceptance CriteriaReported Device Performance
    Sterilization EffectivenessDemonstrated by gamma radiation, a traditional sterilization method per FDA guidance document, Updated 510(k) Sterility Review Guidance K90-1; Guidance for Industry and FDA.
    Sterile Barrier Packaging SystemDemonstrated effective in maintaining sterility for the recommended 5-year shelf-life.
    Impact on Device CharacteristicsNo design modifications were incorporated to facilitate sterile packaging. The sterile-packed implant components maintain the same technological characteristics (design, technical requirements, materials of construction, indications/intended use) as the non-sterile predicate devices.
    Shelf LifeDemonstrated a 5-year shelf life in sterile packaging.
    Safety and EffectivenessConcluded to be safe and effective, retaining the same intended use, indications, technological characteristics, and mode of operation as the predicate non-sterile devices.

    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 the sterilization process and packaging rather than clinical performance of the implant itself. Therefore, typical "test set" in the context of clinical or diagnostic AI/software devices (e.g., patient data) is not applicable here.

    • Sterilization and Packaging Validation Data: The document mentions "accelerated aging data" for validating the 5-year shelf life. It does not specify the sample size for this testing, nor the country of origin or whether it was retrospective or prospective. However, these types of tests are typically prospective laboratory studies conducted in controlled environments.

    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. This submission is about the sterility and packaging of medical implants, not a diagnostic or clinical performance study that would require expert ground truth labeling. The "ground truth" here is the scientific validation of sterilization methods and shelf life according to recognized standards and FDA guidance.

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

    Not applicable. Adjudication methods are typically used in clinical studies for establishing ground truth, which is not relevant to this submission on sterile packaging.

    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/software device and no MRMC study was conducted.

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

    Not applicable. This is not an AI/software device.

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

    The "ground truth" for this submission relies on:

    • Scientific Validation of Sterilization: Adherence to established scientific principles and FDA guidance for sterilization (gamma radiation), demonstrating a Sterility Assurance Level (SAL).
    • Accelerated Aging Data: Laboratory testing to simulate real-time aging and demonstrate that the sterile barrier packaging system maintains sterility for the stated shelf life.
    • Material and Design Specification Conformity: Confirmation that the components are manufactured from specified materials and that their design, technical requirements, and intended use are identical to the non-sterile predicate devices.

    8. The sample size for the training set

    Not applicable. This is not a machine learning or AI device that requires a training set.

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

    Not applicable. As this is not a machine learning or AI device, there is no training set and therefore no ground truth establishment for a training set.

    Intended Use

    The XIA® 4.5 Spinal System is intended for anterior/anteriolateral and posterior, noncervical pedicle and non-pedicle fixation for the following indications:

    • 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;
    • Curvatures (i.e. scoliosis, kyphosis, and/or lordosis);
    • Tumor;
    • Pseudoarthrosis: and
    • Failed previous fusion.

    The Stryker Spine DIAPASON™ Spinal System, OPUS™ Spinal System and XIA® 4.5 Spinal System can be linked to the XIA® 4.5 Spinal System via the rod-to-rod connector.

    When used for posterior noncervical pedicle screw fixation in pediatric patients, the XIA 4.5 Spinal System implants are indicated as an adjunct to fusion to treat adolescent idiopathic scoliosis. The XIA 4.5 Spinal System for pediatric use is intended to be used with autograft and/or allografi. Pediatric pedicle screw fixation is limited to a posterior approach.

    Device Description

    The XIA® 4.5 Spinal System consists of a variety of titanium Monoaxial & Polyaxial Bone Screws, Monoaxial & Polyaxial Reduction Screws, Hooks, Blockers, Rod Connectors, Dual Staples and Connectors. The existing components of the XIA 4.5 Spinal System were determined substantially equivalent through K050461 for class II indications consistent with 21 CFR 888.3070 (b) (1). The indications were expanded through K060361 to include class III indications per product code NKB, 21 CFR 888.3070 (b) (2). Subsequent line extensions have been cleared through K060748, and K092605.

    The expansion of indications for the XIA 4.5 Spinal System is proposed for the inclusion of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis alone, and not other indications for a pediation. As pediatric patients are unlikely to exhibit symptoms of degenerative disc disease (DDD) or stenosis due to the wear and tear on the spine necessary to develop these diseases, expansion of these indications to a pediation is not warranted.

    AI/ML Overview

    This document (K121342) is a 510(k) premarket notification for the Stryker XIA® 4.5 Spinal System, seeking clearance for expanded indications, specifically for adolescent idiopathic scoliosis.

    The acceptance criteria and study information indicate that the device's substantial equivalence relies on biomechanical testing and a clinical literature analysis, not on a clinical ground truth study as typically seen for AI/ML devices. Therefore, many of the requested fields are not applicable.

    Here's the information based on the provided text:

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

    • Sample Size: Not applicable. The submission relies on biomechanical testing and literature review rather than a clinical test set in the context of an AI/ML device.
    • Data Provenance: Not applicable for a clinical test set. Biomechanical testing would have been conducted in a lab environment.

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

    • Number of Experts: Not applicable. Ground truth from experts is not mentioned for this type of submission.
    • Qualifications of Experts: Not applicable.

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

    • Adjudication Method: Not applicable. There is no clinical test set requiring adjudication in this submission.

    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

    • MRMC Study: No. This is a spinal implant, not an AI/ML diagnostic or assistive device.

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

    • Standalone Study: No. This product is a physical spinal implant, not an algorithm.

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

    • Type of Ground Truth: For the biomechanical testing, the "ground truth" would be the established performance characteristics of the predicate devices and the relevant ASTM standards for spinal implants. For the clinical literature analysis, the literature itself serves as the basis for comparison. No clinical "ground truth" as in pathology or outcomes data from a prospective study of this device.

    8. The sample size for the training set

    • Sample Size for Training Set: Not applicable. This is not an AI/ML device requiring a training set.

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

    • Ground Truth Establishment for Training Set: Not applicable.
