Here's an analysis of the provided text regarding the Trident® Porous Titanium Acetabular Component with Peri-Apatite™ Coating, focusing on the acceptance criteria and the study that proves the device meets them.
Disclaimer: This 510(k) summary is for a medical device submitted in 2001. The criteria, methodologies, and regulatory landscape for medical device approval have significantly evolved since then. The information presented here reflects the document's content and not necessarily current best practices or regulatory requirements.
The provided document is a 510(k) Summary for the Trident® Porous Titanium Acetabular Component with Peri-Apatite™ Coating. A 510(k) submission is a premarket notification demonstrating that the device is substantially equivalent to a legally marketed predicate device. This process primarily relies on comparing the new device's technological characteristics and proposed indications for use to those of existing predicate devices, rather than comprehensive clinical studies to establish independent acceptance criteria and direct performance metrics in the way a PMA (Premarket Approval) would.
Therefore, the concept of "acceptance criteria" in this context refers to demonstrating that the new device is as safe and effective as the predicate device(s) through comparison of materials, design, indications, contraindications, and performance testing where relevant (e.g., sterilization, biocompatibility, mechanical testing – though specific details of these tests are often summarized rather than fully detailed in the 510(k) summary).
There is no explicit table of discrete acceptance criteria with numerical targets and reported device performance presented in this 510(k) summary. The "study" that proves the device meets the acceptance criteria is primarily the comparative analysis to the predicate devices, supported by characterization of the unique features (like the Peri-Apatite™ coating).
Analysis based on the provided document:
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance
As mentioned, a formal table is not present in the 510(k) summary. The "acceptance criteria" are implicitly met by demonstrating substantial equivalence to the predicate devices. The document implies performance through:
| Acceptance Criteria (Implicit) | Reported Device Performance (Implicit/Derived) |
|---|---|
| Material Composition | Device manufactured from ASTM F-136 Ti6Al-4V ELI alloy and ASTM F-67 Commercially Pure (CP) Titanium, comparable to other Howmedica Osteonics acetabular components. |
| Porous Coating Structure | Meets the definition of porous coating outlined in 21 CFR 888.3358, comparable to other Howmedica Osteonics hip and knee components. |
| Peri-Apatite™ Coating | Characterized using "Calcium Phosphate [Ca-P] Coating Draft Guidance for Preparation of FDA submissions for Orthopedic and Dental Endosseous Implants." (Specific numerical performance not detailed in this summary). Used on the Vitalock® Solid Back Shell with Peri-Apatite™ coating (a predicate). |
| Geometric Compatibility | Single radius (hemispherical) geometry, allows mating with Trident® UHMWPE inserts through maximum conformity and wireless locking mechanism. |

(a)
Identification. A hip joint metal/polymer/metal semi-constrained porous-coated uncemented prosthesis is a device intended to be implanted to replace a hip joint. The device limits translation and rotation in one or more planes via the geometry of its articulating surfaces. It has no linkage across the joint. This generic type of device has a femoral component made of a cobalt-chromium-molybdenum (Co-Cr-Mo) alloy or a titanium-aluminum-vanadium (Ti-6Al-4V) alloy and an acetabular component composed of an ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene articulating bearing surface fixed in a metal shell made of Co-Cr-Mo or Ti-6Al-4V. The femoral stem and acetabular shell have a porous coating made of, in the case of Co-Cr-Mo substrates, beads of the same alloy, and in the case of Ti-6Al-4V substrates, fibers of commercially pure titanium or Ti-6Al-4V alloy. The porous coating has a volume porosity between 30 and 70 percent, an average pore size between 100 and 1,000 microns, interconnecting porosity, and a porous coating thickness between 500 and 1,500 microns. The generic type of device has a design to achieve biological fixation to bone without the use of bone cement.(b)
