This is a 510(k) premarket notification for a medical device, which seeks to demonstrate substantial equivalence to previously cleared devices. Therefore, the information provided focuses on comparative data rather than a standalone clinical study with acceptance criteria in the same manner as a de novo or PMA submission might require.

However, based on the provided text, we can infer some "acceptance criteria" related to magnetic resonance compatibility and how the study "proves" the device meets them.

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

Explanation: The "acceptance criteria" here are indirectly established by the selection of specific ASTM standards for magnetic resonance compatibility. The study "proves" the device meets these criteria by performing tests according to these standards and reporting that the "results demonstrated compatibility conditions." While the exact quantitative thresholds are not provided in this summary, the FDA's clearance implies that the performance met the requirements set by these recognized standards for MR safety.

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

• Sample Size for Test Set: Not specified. The document states that "non-clinical testing was conducted in alignment with the following standards." This usually means a set of representative devices or components are tested, but the specific number is not provided in this summary.
• Data Provenance: The nature of the tests (magnetic resonance compatibility) indicates laboratory testing of the devices themselves, rather than human subject data. Therefore, "country of origin of the data" and "retrospective or prospective" do not directly apply in the traditional sense of clinical studies. The tests were performed to demonstrate that the device materials and design are safe within an MR environment.

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

This submission is for device clearance based on non-clinical (laboratory) testing for MR compatibility. Therefore, there were no experts used to establish ground truth for a test set in the clinical sense. The "ground truth" is governed by the objective measurements defined by the ASTM standards for MR compatibility.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

Not applicable. As this is non-clinical laboratory testing, there is no adjudication method involving human interpretation or consensus. The data points are quantitative measurements against predefined ASTM standard limits.

5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study was done

No. An MRMC comparative effectiveness study was not done. This type of study is relevant for assessing the impact of AI on diagnostic performance with human readers, which is not the purpose of this submission. This submission is for the clearance of physical medical devices (spinal systems) and their magnetic resonance compatibility labeling.

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

No. A standalone algorithm-only performance study was not done. This submission concerns physical medical devices and their MR compatibility, not an algorithm.

7. The Type of Ground Truth Used

The "ground truth" for the non-clinical tests was defined by the specifications and limits within the cited ASTM standards (ASTM F2213, ASTM F2052, ASTM F2119, ASTM F2182) for magnetic resonance compatibility. These standards outline methodologies and acceptable thresholds for torque, displacement force, image artifacts, and heating.

8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

Not applicable. There is no "training set" in the context of this 510(k) submission, as it relates to physical device testing for MR compatibility, not machine learning or AI algorithm development.

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

Not applicable. As there is no training set, there is no ground truth to establish for it.
