Clearance to Clinic’s Spine Evidence Index
A searchable index connecting FDA-cleared orthopedic technology with the clinical evidence—or lack of it—behind the same function.
Field notes
The index groups spine-related AI devices into platform families rather than treating each clearance as an isolated product. Its records pair submission numbers and FDA product codes with an evidence-function match, safety-search result, and links to the underlying FDA record. The Acorn 3D entry illustrates the distinction the project is making: sponsor-submitted bench testing reported angular accuracy within 3°, while the index found no exact peer-reviewed clinical evaluation for the machine-learning segmentation function.
