AI/ML Overview

I am sorry, but the provided text does not contain the information requested to describe the acceptance criteria and the study that proves the device meets those criteria. The document is a 510(k) clearance letter from the FDA for a device called "Helical Compression Anchor System, Cannulated, Version 2." It primarily states that the device has been found substantially equivalent to a legally marketed predicate device for the stated indications for use.

The document does not include:

  1. A table of acceptance criteria or reported device performance.
  2. Details about sample sizes, data provenance, or types of studies conducted (e.g., test set, ground truth experts, adjudication methods, MRMC studies, standalone performance).
  3. Information on the training set or how its ground truth was established.

The "Indications for Use Statement" only provides the general purpose of the device: "This device is used in the general management of fractures and reconstructive surgery." This is an intended use statement, not a list of performance acceptance criteria.

§ 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.
