Intended Use

In Anatomic:
The humeral stem, humeral head coupler and humeral head may be used by themselves, as a hemiarthroplasty, if the natural glenoid provides a sufficient bearing surface, or in conjunction with a glenoid implant, as a total replacement.

The PERFORM™ Humeral System – Stem is to be used only in patients with an intact or reconstructable rotator cuff, where it is intended to provide increased mobility, stability, and to relieve pain. The PERFORM Humeral System – Stem is indicated for use as a replacement of shoulder joints disabled by:

  • Non-inflammatory degenerative joint disease (i.e. osteoarthritis) and avascular necrosis .
  • Correction of functional deformity
  • Post-traumatic arthritis 0
  • o Revisions or fractures of the humeral head where adequate fixation can be achieved and adequate bone stock remains

Titanium humeral heads are intended for patients with suspected cobalt alloy material sensitivity. The wear properties of titanium and titanium alloys are inferior to that of cobalt alloy. A titanium humeral head is not recommended for patients without a suspected material sensitivity to cobalt alloy.

All components are single use. The humeral stems are intended for cementless use.

The PERFORM Humeral System – Stem is intended to be used with cemented polyethylene glenoid components, in a total shoulder arthroplasty.

In Reverse:
The PERFORM™ Humeral System - Stem is indicated for use as a replacement of a shoulder joint for patients with a functional deltoid muscle, grossly deficient rotator cuff, and pain disabled by one or more of the following:

  • o Non-inflammatory degenerative joint disease (i.e. osteoarthritis) and avascular necrosis
  • Pseudoparalysis or anterior superior escape ●
  • Rotator cuff tear arthropathy
  • Correction of functional deformity
  • Post-traumatic arthritis
  • o Revisions or fractures of the humeral head where adequate fixation can be achieved and adequate bone stock remains

The reversed insert is indicated for use for the conversion from an anatomic to reverse shoulder prosthesis without the removal of a well fixed humeral stem for patients with a functional deltoid muscle.

All components are single use. The humeral stems are intended for cemented or cementless use. The PERFORM Humeral System – Stem is intended to be used with glenoid implants that are anchored to the bone with screws for non-cemented fixation.

2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective)

  • This information is not applicable as no clinical or AI/ML-related test set is described. The document refers to non-clinical testing of the physical device.

3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts (e.g. radiologist with 10 years of experience)

  • Not applicable as this is not an AI/ML device and no expert-based ground truth for a test set is described.

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

  • Not applicable as no AI/ML test set is described.

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 MRMC study was done, as this is a physical implant and not an AI/ML-assisted diagnostic device. The document explicitly states: "No clinical studies were performed."

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

  • Not applicable, as this is a physical medical device and not an algorithm.

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

  • Not applicable, as this is a physical medical device and not an AI/ML model requiring ground truth for performance evaluation in the context of diagnostic or predictive tasks. The "ground truth" for the non-clinical tests would be the specific pass/fail criteria defined by the relevant ASTM/ISO standards.

8. The sample size for the training set

  • Not applicable, as this device does not involve a training set for an AI/ML algorithm.

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

  • Not applicable, for the same reasons as point 8.
