    Intended Use

    The NEO Pedicle Screw System™, when used as a posterior pedicle screw system, is intended to provide immobilization and stabilization of spinal segments in skeletally mature patients as an adjunct to fusion. The system is intended for posterior, non-cervical 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 (scolosis, and/or lordosis), tumor, pseudarthrosis, and/ or failed previous fusion.

    When used in conjunction with BonOs® Inject Cement, the NEO Pedicle Screw System™ is intented to restore the integrity of the spinal column even in the absence of fusion for a limited time period in patients with advanced stage tumors involving the thoracic and lumbar spine in whom life expectancy is of insufficient duration to permit achievement of fusion. NEO Pedicle Screws augmented with BonOs® Inject Cement are for use with 5 mm to 8 mm screw diameters at spinal levels where the structural integrity of the spine is not severely compromised.

    BonOs® Inject bone cement is indicated for the treatment of pathological fractures of the vertebral body due to osteoporosis, cancer, or benign lesions using vertebroplasty or balloon kyphoplasty procedure.

    When used in conjunction with NEO Pedicle Screw System™ BonOs® Inject is intended to restore the integrity of the spinal column even in the absence of fusion for a limited time in patients with advanced stage tumors involving the thoracic and lumbar spine in whom life expectancy is of insufficient duration to permit achievement of fusion. NEO Pedicle Screws augmented with BonOs® Inject Cement are for use at spinal levels where the structural integrity of the spine is not severely compromised.

    Device Description

    BonOs® Inject is a radiopaque, injectable bone cement for use in spine surgery like percutaneous vertebral augmentation during vertebroplasty or kyphoplasty. It is a twocomponent system consisting of a powder and a liquid. Methylmethacrylate polymer is the primary constituent of the powder component. Zirconium dioxide is added as radiopacifier. Methylmethacrylate monomer is the primary constituent of the liquid component. Mixing the two separate sterile components, initially an injectable paste is produced which can be transferred into a syringe and which then can be injected under slight pressure into the vertebral body. After curing of the bone cement by exothermic polymerization it stabilizes the vertebral lesions and vertebral compression fractures.

    The NEO Pedicle Screw System™ consists of screws, rods and connectors which are available in different sizes. The system includes the relevant instruments which are mainly single use, disposable and delivered sterile, just few optional instruments are reusable and delivered non-sterile.

    All the system components are made of materials compliant with ASTM and/or ISO standards. The screws are made out of a titanium alloy and delivered pre-mounted to a screw extender including a tissue dilator and sterile. The rods are made out of a titanium alloy or cobalt chrome allov and delivered sterile. Connectors are made out of titanium allov and delivered sterile.

    The pedicle screws are offered in diameters of 4.5 – 8.0 mm and lengths of 25 - 55 mm. Illiac screws are offered in diameters of 8.0 mm and lengths of 70 – 100 mm. Three different types of rods are available: pre-bent, straight or special bent rod for S1/L5. All rods have a diameter of 5.5 mm. Pre-bent rods are offered in lengths of 40 – 100 mm, straight rods in lengths from 30 - 500 mm and the special-bent rod in either 30 or 40 mm length.

    Intended Use

    The Calvary Spine Pedicle Screw System is 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 or deformities of thoracic, lumbar, and sacral spine (T1 to S1/ilium); degenerative disc disease (defined as back pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies), degenerative spondylolisthesis with objective evidence of neurological impairment, fracture, deformities or curvatures (i.e. scoliosis, kyphosis, and/or lordosis), spinal tumor, pseudarthrosis and failed previous fusion.

    When used for posterior, non-cervical (T1 to S1/ilum), pedicte screw fixation in pediatric patients, the Calvary Spine Pedicle Screw System implants are indicated as an adjunct to fusion to treat progressive spinal deformities (i.e., scoliosis, kyphosis, or lordosis) including idiosis, neuromuscular scoliosis, and congenital scoliosis. Additionally, the Calvary Spine Pedicle Screw System is intended to treat pediatric patients diagnosed with spondylolisthesis/spondylolysis, fracture caused by tumor and/or trauma, pseudarthrosis, and/or failed previous fusion.

    This system is intended to be used with autograft. Pediatric pedicle screw fixation is limited to a posterior approach.

    Device Description

    Calvary Spine Pedicle Screw System includes screws and connecting components in a wide variety of sizes and shapes, which can be locked in various configurations, each assembly being tailor-made. Calvary pedicular screws must be used with Ø 5.5mm straight and curved rods.

    AI/ML Overview

    Here's an analysis of the provided text regarding the acceptance criteria and study for the Calvary Spine Pedicle Screw System:

    Based on the provided FDA 510(k) summary (K201568), there is no information about acceptance criteria or a study proving the device meets specific performance criteria in terms of an AI/algorithm-based medical device.

    The document describes a traditional medical device, specifically a pedicle screw system, which is a hardware implant used in spinal fusion surgery. The "acceptance criteria" discussed in this document refer to the regulatory requirements for establishing substantial equivalence to previously cleared predicate devices, primarily based on design, materials, and mechanical performance through non-clinical testing.

    Therefore, I cannot populate most of the requested fields because they are specifically tailored for studies validating AI/algorithm performance.

    However, I can extract the relevant information regarding the type of study and the basis for substantial equivalence:


    1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

    As this is a traditional medical device and not an AI/algorithm, there are no specific performance metrics like sensitivity, specificity, or AUC to list as acceptance criteria for automated diagnosis or analysis. The "acceptance criteria" for this device are broadly the demonstration of substantial equivalence to predicate devices based on:

    Acceptance Criteria (Broad Interpretation for Traditional Device)Reported Device Performance (Summary)
    Intended Use EquivalenceEquivalent to predicate devices.
    Material EquivalenceUses same materials (Ti-6Al-4V ELI, CP Titanium, CoCrMo).
    Design EquivalenceEquivalent in shape, sizes, material, manufacturing process.
    Strength EquivalenceGreater or equivalent strength values compared to predicate devices.

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

    • Not applicable (N/A) for an AI/algorithm test set.
    • The "test set" in this context refers to the samples used in non-clinical mechanical testing, which are typically manufactured units of the device. No information on the specific number of units tested for each mechanical test is provided, but it would involve standard engineering sample sizes for material and mechanical property evaluations.
    • Data Provenance: The data provenance for mechanical testing would be from internal laboratory testing of the manufactured devices. No country of origin for data in the AI sense is relevant here, nor is retrospective or prospective human data.

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

    • N/A for an AI/algorithm test set.
    • Ground truth for mechanical properties is established through standard engineering and materials testing protocols (e.g., ASTM standards), not by human experts adjudicating images or clinical data.

    4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

    • N/A for an AI/algorithm test set.
    • Mechanical test results are objective measurements against defined standards, not subject to human adjudication methods like 2+1 or 3+1.

    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 study was not done.
    • This device is not an AI/algorithm, therefore, there is no human-in-the-loop performance improvement with AI assistance to measure.

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

    • No. A standalone algorithm performance study was not done.
    • This device is not an AI/algorithm.

    7. The Type of Ground Truth Used

    • Mechanical and Material Standards: The "ground truth" for this medical device's performance is compliance with established material specifications (e.g., ASTM F136, F67, F1582) and mechanical testing standards for spinal implants, demonstrating equivalent or superior strength to predicate devices.

    8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

    • N/A for an AI/algorithm training set.
    • This device does not involve a training set as it's not an AI/algorithm.

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

    • N/A for an AI/algorithm training set.
    • Not applicable as there is no training set.

    Summary of what was done (based on the provided text):

    The Calvary Spine Pedicle Screw System underwent non-clinical testing to demonstrate that it is substantially equivalent to legally marketed predicate devices. This equivalence was established based on:

    • Similar materials (Ti-6Al-4V ELI, CP Titanium, CoCrMo).
    • Similar intended use.
    • Similar design (shape, sizes, manufacturing process).
    • Comparable or superior strength values, presumably measured through mechanical testing (though specific tests and methodology are not detailed in this summary).

    The document explicitly states: "No clinical studies were performed." This is common for 510(k) clearances where substantial equivalence can be demonstrated through non-clinical data.

    • Polyaxial Reductionheads

    The implants of the MOSS VRS System are single-use only and the system is provided non sterile.

    AI/ML Overview

    This appears to be a 510(k) Summary for a medical device (MOSS VRS Spinal System). The document describes the device, its indications for use, and a comparison to predicate devices, including performance data. However, it does not describe a study involving an AI/Machine Learning device or specific acceptance criteria for such a device in the way your prompt requests.

    The performance data section (8.1 Non-Clinical Test Summary) details bench testing for mechanical properties of the physical spinal implant system. It explicitly states, "No clinical tests were performed" (8.2 Clinical Test Summary).

    Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information for an AI/ML device because this submission focuses on a traditional medical device (a spinal implant system) and its mechanical performance, not an AI-powered diagnostic or therapeutic tool.

    If this document were for an AI/ML device, the requested information would typically be found in dedicated sections outlining the algorithm's performance study.

    Intended Use

    The NEO Pedicle Screw System™ is intended to provide immobilization of spinal segments in skeletally mature patients as an adjunct to fusion. The system is intended for posterior, non-cervical firation 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, tumor, pseudarthrosis, and/or failed previous fusion.

    Device Description

    The NEO Pedicle Screw System™ consists of pedicle screws and connecting rods which differ in length and diameter. The system includes the relevant instruments which are single use, disposable and delivered sterile. All components and instruments are sterilized by gamma irradiation.

    The screws are offered in diameters of 5.0 - 7.0 mm and lengths of 35 - 55 mm. Three different types of rods are available: pre-bent, straight or special bent rod for S1/L5. All rods have a diameter of 5.5 mm. Pre-bent rods are offered in lengths of 40 - 100 mm, straight rods in lengths from 30 - 300 mm and the special-bent rod in either 30 or 40 mm length. All spinal implant components are made of titanium alloy (Ti6Al4V Eli) in accordance with ASTM F136. The screws are color coded for better identification of the different diameters. The screws are double threaded, cannulated, fenestrated and selftapping.

    AI/ML Overview

    This document pertains to the 510(k) premarket notification for a medical device called the "NEO Pedicle Screw System™." This submission is for a Class II medical device, and as such, it focuses on demonstrating "substantial equivalence" to legally marketed predicate devices, rather than proving a totally new level of device performance through extensive clinical trials.

    Therefore, the information typically sought regarding acceptance criteria and studies proving the device meets those criteria (especially in the context of device performance metrics like accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, or human-AI reader performance improvements) is not present in this type of regulatory submission.

    Here's why and what information IS available:

    1. Nature of the Device: The NEO Pedicle Screw System™ is an orthopedic implant (pedicle screws and rods) used for spinal fixation. Its primary function is mechanical support. Unlike diagnostic AI software, its performance is not measured by diagnostic accuracy or an effect size on human reader improvement.
    2. Regulatory Pathway (510(k)): The 510(k) pathway for Class II devices primarily requires demonstration of "substantial equivalence" to a predicate device already on the market. This is achieved by showing that the new device has:
      • The same intended use as the predicate.
      • The same technological characteristics as the predicate, OR
      • Different technological characteristics, but these do not raise new questions of safety and effectiveness, AND the device is as safe and effective as the predicate.
    3. Focus of Testing: The testing detailed in this document is primarily non-clinical and focuses on:
      • Material properties: Biocompatibility (ISO 10993-1), chemical analysis.
      • Mechanical performance: Static and dynamic axial compression, static torsion (in accordance with ASTM F1717), showing comparability to other marketed systems.
      • Sterilization: Validation (ISO 11137-2), pyrogenicity.
      • Packaging: Shelf life (ISO 11607-1), transport studies.
      • MRI Compatibility: Magnetic field interactions, heating, artifacts (ASTM F2052-15, F2182-11a, F2119-07).
      • Usability: WetLab study with orthopedic surgeons.

    Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information about acceptance criteria for AI performance, MRMC studies, or specific effect sizes, as this device is a mechanical implant and not an AI/diagnostic software.

    However, I can extract the information relevant to the types of studies conducted for this specific device:

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

    For this device, the "acceptance criteria" are not based on diagnostic performance metrics (e.g., sensitivity, specificity). Instead, they are based on meeting established standards for mechanical performance, biocompatibility, sterility, and durability, demonstrating "comparability" and "substantial equivalence" to predicate devices. The document implies that the device met these standards, as it received 510(k) clearance.

    Test CategoryAcceptance Criteria (Implied)Reported Device Performance
    Mechanical TestingPerformance comparable to currently marketed pedicle screw systems, in accordance with ASTM F1717 standards (static and dynamic axial compression, static torsion)."The results revealed that the NEO Pedicle Screw System™ is comparable with regards to mechanical strength to other currently marketed pedicle screw systems."
    SterilizationValidated using VDmax 55 method as described in ISO 11137-2, achieving a Sterility Assurance Level (SAL) of 10⁻⁶."Validated using VDmax 55 method as described in ISO 11137-2 and confirmed a Sterility Assurance Level SAL of 10⁻⁶."
    PyrogenicityResult below the detection limit of the test system (LAL-Test)."LAL-Test (Limulustest) showed result below the detection limit of the test system."
    Packaging ValidationCompliance with ISO 11607-1 for sterile barrier system, demonstrated 5-year shelf life and packaging integrity."The sterile barrier system complies with ISO 11607-1. Real time and accelerated ageing studies as well as transport studies were performed to demonstrate 5 year shelf life and packaging integrity."
    BiocompatibilityPerformance in accordance with ISO 10993-1, including chemical analysis (ISO 10993-18) and cytotoxicity testing."Biological evaluation has been performed in accordance with ISO 10993-1. Chemical Analysis according to ISO 10993-18 and Cytotoxicity testing were performed on worst case components of the NEO Pedicle Screw System™." (Implied acceptance - no adverse findings reported, allowing clearance).
    MRI CompatibilityDemonstrated MRI conditional status while meeting ASTM F2052-15, F2182-11a, and F2119-07 standards."The following tests were performed Magnetic field interactions ASTM F2052-15, MRI-related heating ASTM F2182-11a and Artifacts ASTM F2119-07 (R2013). The NEO Pedicle Screw System™ is MRI conditional and information is provided in the labeling." (Implied acceptance - findings met the criteria for "MRI conditional").
    Monoaxial ModeLocking mechanism of the polyaxial screw with a clip performs as intended."Verification of this unique feature showed that lock of the polyaxial screw with a clip performs as intended."
    UsabilitySuitability of instruments and system use confirmed."Suitability of the instruments and use of the NEO Pedicle Screw System™ including its labeling was confirmed in a WetLab study with orthopedic surgeons."
    Clinical EquivalenceDemonstrates equivalence to predicate devices based on scientific literature and non-clinical data."Clinical Evaluation: Based on review scientific literature, comparison with similar device and non-clinical performance data. Clinical studies were not required. The NEO Pedicle Screw System™ is substantially equivalent to its predicate devices in terms of intended use, material, design, mechanical properties and function." (This is the overarching conclusion of the 510(k) pathway, not a specific performance metric of the device itself.)

    2. Sample sized used for the test set and the data provenance:

    • Sample Size for Test Set: Not applicable in the context of diagnostic AI. For mechanical and biological testing, sample sizes are dictated by the specific ASTM/ISO standards referenced (e.g., number of test specimens for mechanical strength, number of samples for sterility validation), but these specifics are not provided in this summary. Data provenance is implied to be from the manufacturer's own internal testing and external certified labs commissioned by the manufacturer. It is not clinical data (retrospective or prospective) in the sense of patient data.

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

    • Not applicable for this type of device. "Ground truth" in the context of AI diagnostic performance relies on expert consensus or biopsy/pathology. Here, the "truth" for mechanical performance is defined by adherence to engineering standards (ASTM, ISO), and human experts (orthopedic surgeons) were involved in a "WetLab study" for usability, but not to establish "ground truth" for a diagnostic test.

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

    • Not applicable. This refers to methods for consolidating expert opinions in diagnostic studies, which is not relevant here.

    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 study is for evaluating human performance with and without AI assistance for diagnostic tasks. This device is a surgical implant, not a diagnostic AI.

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

    • Not applicable. This refers to the performance of an AI algorithm alone.

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

    • For this device, "ground truth" is established by:
      • Engineering standards and specifications: For mechanical strength (ASTM F1717), sterility (ISO 11137-2), biocompatibility (ISO 10993-1), MRI compatibility (ASTM F2052-15, F2182-11a, F2119-07), and packaging (ISO 11607-1).
      • Functional verification: For the monoaxial mode and overall usability (WetLab confirmation by surgeons).
      • Published scientific literature: Used for clinical evaluation to demonstrate equivalence to predicate devices, as "Clinical studies were not required."

    8. The sample size for the training set:

    • Not applicable. This term is relevant for machine learning models.

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

    • Not applicable. This term is relevant for machine learning models.

    In summary, the provided document describes a regulatory submission for a physical medical device (spinal implant) through the 510(k) pathway. The evidence presented focuses on ensuring the device is safe and effective as a mechanical and biological component, rather than as a diagnostic tool or AI algorithm.

    The EXPEDIUM Spine System and VIPER 2 Systems are intended for noncervical pedicle fixation and nonpedicle 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, and/or lordosis); tumor, pseudoarthrosis; and failed previous fusion in skeletally mature patients.

    When used in a posterior percutaneous approach with MIS instrumentation, the VIPER and VIPER 2 Systems are intended for noncervical 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 radies); spondylolisthesis; trauma (i.e., fracture or dislocation); spinal stenosis; curvatures (i.e., scoliosis, and/or lordosis); tumor, pseudoarthrosis; and failed previous fusion in skeletally mature patients.

    When used for posterior non-cervical pedicle screw fixation in pediatric patients, the EXPEDIUM Spine System and VIPER and VIPER 2 Systems metallic implants are indicated as an adjunct to treat adolescent idiopathic scoliosis. The EXPEDIUM Spine System and VIPER 2 Systems are intended to be used with autograft and/or allograft. Pediatric pedicle screw fixation is limited to a posterior approach.

    Device Description

    The EXPEDIUM and VIPER/VIPER 2 Spine Systems are metallic implants intended to provide immobilization and stabilization of spinal segments. They can be used for skeletally mature patients as an adjunct to fusion in the treatment of acute and chronic instabilities or deformities of the thoracic, lumbar and sacral spine; or for posterior non-cervical pedicle screw fixation in pediatric patients as an adjunct to fusion to treat adolescent idiopathic scoliosis. The EXPEDIUM and VIPER/VIPER2 systems are intended to be used with autograft and/or allograft.

    The EXPEDIUM Spine System consists of longitudinal rods, monoaxial screws, polyaxial screws, uniplanar screws, reduction screws, cable/wire screws, bolts, slotted connectors, wires, hooks, reduction hooks, transverse connectors, SFX Cross Connector System, dual rod connectors, sacral extenders, lateral connectors, and washers. The VIPER and VIPER 2 Systems consist of cannulated polyaxial screws, monoaxial screws, uni-planar screws, reduction screws, and rods used in a percutaneous approach.

    AI/ML Overview

    This document is a 510(k) premarket notification for spinal systems (EXPEDIUM Spine System, VIPER and VIPER 2 Systems) and primarily focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to existing predicate devices based on technological characteristics, materials, and intended use. It does not contain information about the performance or acceptance criteria of a new device or software algorithm, nor does it describe a study proving such a device meets acceptance criteria.

    The document discusses:

    • Device Description: Spinal systems consisting of metallic implants (rods, screws, connectors) intended for immobilization and stabilization of spinal segments.
    • Indications for Use: Treatment of chronic instabilities, deformities, degenerative disc disease, spondylolisthesis, trauma, spinal stenosis, curvatures, tumor, pseudoarthrosis, and failed previous fusion in skeletally mature patients, and adolescent idiopathic scoliosis in pediatric patients.
    • Materials: Commercially pure titanium, titanium alloy, stainless steel, cobalt-nickel-chromium-molybdenum alloy, and cobalt-chromium-molybdenum alloy.
    • Performance Data: References only mechanical testing (ASTM F1717) and optical/visual analysis for corrosion compatibility of materials, stating that these materials are compatible even in aggressive environments for the duration expected for spinal fusion.

    Therefore, based on the provided text, I cannot extract the requested information regarding acceptance criteria, device performance, study design (sample size, data provenance, expert review, adjudication, MRMC, standalone performance), or ground truth establishment for an AI/software device.

    The document's "Performance Data" section specifically addresses the compatibility of the materials used in the predicate and subject devices, not the performance of a digital health or AI/ML-enabled device. It confirms material compatibility through mechanical testing and corrosion analysis, which is typical for implantable medical devices, but not for software or AI performance related to diagnostic or evaluative tasks.
