Intended Use

The AperFix™ Femoral Implant with Inserter is intended for use with soft tissue grafts to provide tendon to bone fixation during arthroscopic or open ACL reconstruction procedures.

Device Description

The Cayenne Medical AperFix™ Femoral Implant with Inserter is a non-absorbable internal fixation device intended to provide tendon to bone fixation in hamstring tendon arthroscopic or open anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. It includes a body, wedge and two deployable arms with compression pads. AperFix Femoral Implants are available in diameters of 9, 10 and 11 mm with a standard length of 35 mm. Each device is intended for single use and is pre-loaded on a sterile inserter.

The AperFix Femoral Implant with Inserter will be supplied sterile. Sterilization will be accomplished by means of Co60 gamma irradiation at a dose of 25-40 kGy .

Mechanical testing was performed on the AperFix Femoral Implant. It was shown that pull-out strength is significantly higher than that of a predicate interference screw.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text is a 510(k) summary for the AperFix™ Femoral Implant with Inserter, a medical device for ACL reconstruction. It focuses on administrative information, device description, and substantial equivalence to previously marketed devices. This type of documentation typically does not include the detailed information requested in your prompt regarding acceptance criteria and performance study specifics that are common for AI/software devices.

Therefore,Based on the provided 510(k) summary, I cannot provide the requested information for the following reasons:

  • This document is for a mechanical medical implant, not a software or AI device. The questions you've posed (e.g., sample size for test set, number of experts, adjudication method, MRMC study, standalone performance, training set, ground truth) are highly relevant to the validation of AI/ML algorithms, particularly in medical imaging or diagnostic contexts.
  • The 510(k) summary for this device focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate mechanical devices. The primary "study" mentioned is "Mechanical testing... shown that pull-out strength is significantly higher than that of a predicate interference screw." This is a mechanical engineering test, not a clinical study involving human readers or AI performance metrics.

Therefore, I cannot populate the table or answer the specific questions about acceptance criteria and study details as they pertain to AI/software validation, because this information is not present in the provided document about a mechanical implant.

Dear Mr. Larson:

We have reviewed your Scction 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.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
