AI/ML Overview

The provided text describes a 510(k) submission for the Sodem High Speed System (Electric), focusing on its substantial equivalence to predicate devices. It does not contain information about a study proving the device meets acceptance criteria in the way typically expected for a medical device efficacy or performance study (e.g., clinical trials, algorithm performance testing). Instead, the submission argues for substantial equivalence based on comparisons of intended use, materials, sterility status, system description (console, accessories, electrical power), and speed.

Therefore, a table of acceptance criteria and reported device performance or details of a study structured around those criteria cannot be directly extracted from this document, as the document's purpose is to demonstrate equivalence rather than report on a performance study against specific acceptance metrics.

However, I can extract the information that is present according to your numbered list, acknowledging that many points will be stated as "Not applicable" or "Not provided" given the nature of a 510(k) summary for a high-speed surgical system based on equivalence.

1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance

This document does not present a table of acceptance criteria and reported device performance for a study in the context of efficacy or clinical outcomes. Instead, it compares the Sodem High Speed System (Electric) to predicate devices based on various technical and operational characteristics to establish substantial equivalence.

The "performance" is demonstrated by showing that the device's technical specifications are comparable to predicate devices. For example:

CharacteristicAcceptance Criteria (Predicate Devices)Reported Device Performance (Sodem High Speed System)

Electrical Power SourceElectrical power source controlled by foot pedalElectrical power source controlled by foot pedal
Max Drill Speed (RPM)Linvatec E9000/Advantage: 0-80,000 rpm; Stryker TPS: 0-75,000 rpmAdjustable from 0-80,000 rpm

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

Not applicable. The document describes a 510(k) submission based on substantial equivalence to predicate devices, not an independent performance study with a test set of data. No data provenance or sample size for a test set is provided.

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. This document is a regulatory submission for device clearance, not a study evaluating human performance or diagnostic accuracy where expert ground truth would be established.

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

Not applicable. No test set or expert adjudication 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

Not applicable. This document pertains to a high-speed surgical system, not an AI-assisted diagnostic or interpretive device. No MRMC study, human reader improvement, or AI assistance is mentioned.

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

Not applicable. This device is a surgical tool, not an algorithm.

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

Not applicable. The concept of "ground truth" as used in diagnostic or AI studies is not relevant to this 510(k) submission for a surgical instrument. The "truth" in this context is the predicate device's established safety and effectiveness.

8. The sample size for the training set

Not applicable. This document does not describe the development of an algorithm using a training set.

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

Not applicable. This document does not describe the development of an algorithm using a training set or its associated ground truth.

5. INTENDED USE

The Sodem High Speed motor allows the fixation of spindles, which operate with drills, burs and cutters for drilling, cutting and sculpting hard tissue and bone (knee, ankle, hand, foot, facial and maxillary bones) for orthopedics and general plastic surgery.

Motor, attachments and cutting tools are for use in general orthopedics and general plastic surgery.

6. BASIS FOR CLAIM OF SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE

The Sodem High Speed System (Electric) claims substantial equivalence to other currently marketed high-speed electric power systems. This claim is based on equivalence in:

Intended use

The Sodem High Speed System (Electric) and predicate electric instruments share the same clinical applications and intended used (orthopedics and general plastic surgery).

Materials

Patient contact materials for all systems consist of surgical stainless steel.

Sterility Status

All systems are supplied non sterile except burs and drills (special 510k Nº K94175), requiring reprocessing between surgical applications. Sterilization of all systems is accomplished using steam. All systems require decontamination after use, and resterilization by the user facility.

System Description

- Console

All cited systems are operated using an electrical power console. Console allows to select motors and to choose operating speed. All console provide one or more connection for several hand pieces/motors (ex E9000 of Linvatec one connection for 14 hand pieces, TPS of Stryker 3 connections for approximately 10 hand pieces). Difference between Sodem console and other currently marketed consoles is that Sodem console has two specific connection (one for High Speed Motor, and one for Skull Perforator Motor, an inversion is not possible).

Accessories ।

The Sodem High Speed System (Electric) and predicate systems consist of various attachments (burs, spindles). All offer a wide variety of accessories including but not limited to chuck, adapters, spindles and burs. The technical characteristics of the various adapters are identical or similar. That is, adapters allow the use of hand pieces with various power system accessories.

Some hand pieces are designed with a terminal angle (nose piece). The Sodem and Stryker systems have an angled nose. The Linvatec E9000 / Advantage systems have an integral angling capability from straight to 20 degrees with a twist of the collet. all mighting to ability to change burs and spindles without the need for a wrench.

Electrical power -

All cited systems are operated using an electrical power source controlled by a foot pedal. For all systems, users can choose maximum operating speed on the console and with the foot pedal increase or reduce speed until maximum speed selected.

The nominal power output of the Sodem High Speed System is identical or substantially equivalent to the other commercially available electrical motors (Linvatec, Stryker). The maximum drill speed of the Sodem High Speed System (Electric) is adjustable with the console from 0-80'000 rpm, the drill speed of the E9000 / Advantage system of Linvatec is adjustable with the console from 0-80'000 rpm, the drill speed of the TPS of Stryker is adjustable with the console from 0-75'000 rpm.

Based on the above comparison, SodemSystems believes that the Sodem High Speed System (Electric) is substantially equivalent to the systems cited, that any differences between the Sodem High Speed System (Electric) and these other currently available powered systems are minor and raise no new issues of safety and effectiveness.
