AI/ML Overview

I am sorry, but based on the provided document, there is no information about acceptance criteria, device performance tables, sample sizes for test or training sets, data provenance, expert ground truth establishment, adjudication methods, multi-reader multi-case studies, standalone algorithm performance, or ground truth types.

The document is a 510(k) summary for a medical device (KSEA Bioabsorbable Interference Screw Megafix™), which focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices rather than providing detailed study results or performance metrics in the way you've requested. It states that "The minor differences between the KSEA Bioabsorbable Interference Screw and the predicate devices raise no new issues of safety and effectiveness, as these minor differences have no effect on the performance, function or intended use of the device." This implies a comparison to existing devices, but the specific studies and acceptance criteria are not detailed here.

§ 888.3040 Smooth or threaded metallic bone fixation fastener.

(a)
Identification. A smooth or threaded metallic bone fixation fastener is a device intended to be implanted that consists of a stiff wire segment or rod made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum and stainless steel, and that may be smooth on the outside, fully or partially threaded, straight or U-shaped; and may be either blunt pointed, sharp pointed, or have a formed, slotted head on the end. It may be used for fixation of bone fractures, for bone reconstructions, as a guide pin for insertion of other implants, or it may be implanted through the skin so that a pulling force (traction) may be applied to the skeletal system.(b)
Classification. Class II.
