Device Description

The Biomet Calcaneal Plate is an open structure bone plate with a cross-strut in the center manufactured from 316 LVM Stainless Steel. The device has 11 or 13 screw holes, depending on plate size, to ensure bone purchase of screws. The devices is slightly malleable, to conform to each patient's anatomy at the time of surgery. The device can also be cut in the operating room it achieve better fit.

The device is universal in design and therefore may be used on either the right or left foot. Three sizes are available, small, large and extra-large. A series of 3.5mm cortical screws are used in conjunction with the device.

AI/ML Overview

The presented document is a 510(k) premarket notification for the Biomet Calcaneal Plate, a bone plate used for fixation of calcaneal fractures and osteotomies.

Based on the provided information, no acceptance criteria or study demonstrating device performance are described.

The document explicitly states:

  • Non-Clinical and Clinical Testing: None provided (from the "Summary of Safety and Effectiveness" section).

This indicates that the submission for the Biomet Calcaneal Plate did not include specific performance criteria or a study to demonstrate its performance against such criteria. The device's approval or "substantial equivalence" determination by the FDA was based on its similarity to legally marketed predicate devices, not on a new study showing its performance against pre-defined acceptance criteria.

Therefore, the following information cannot be extracted from the provided text:

  1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance: Not provided.
  2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance: Not applicable as no testing was provided.
  3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts: Not applicable.
  4. Adjudication method: Not applicable.
  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 device is a physical bone plate, not an AI or imaging device).
  6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the loop performance) was done: Not applicable.
  7. The type of ground truth used: Not applicable.
  8. The sample size for the training set: Not applicable.
  9. How the ground truth for the training set was established: Not applicable.

Dear Ms. Beres:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices. good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

§ 888.3030 Single/multiple component metallic bone fixation appliances and accessories.

(a)
Identification. Single/multiple component metallic bone fixation appliances and accessories are devices intended to be implanted consisting of one or more metallic components and their metallic fasteners. The devices contain a plate, a nail/plate combination, or a blade/plate combination that are made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum, stainless steel, and titanium, that are intended to be held in position with fasteners, such as screws and nails, or bolts, nuts, and washers. These devices are used for fixation of fractures of the proximal or distal end of long bones, such as intracapsular, intertrochanteric, intercervical, supracondylar, or condylar fractures of the femur; for fusion of a joint; or for surgical procedures that involve cutting a bone. The devices may be implanted or attached through the skin so that a pulling force (traction) may be applied to the skeletal system.(b)
Classification. Class II.
