Intended Use

The ZMR Hip System is indicated for cementless revision hip arthroplasty. Arthroplasty should be performed only when more conservative methods of treatment have failed to provide symptomatic relief or when there is progressive disability.

Device Description

Like its predicates, the ZMR® Hip System-XL prosthesis is a modular femoral stem manufactured from Tivanium® Ti-6Al-4V Alloy and intended for cementless use in revision hip arthroplasty. This device has two modular junctions: a head/neck junction and a midstem junction. Three components are intraoperatively assembled to construct the device: a proximal "body," a distal stem, and a compression nut.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text describes a Special 510(k) for a device modification of the ZMR® Hip System-XL. The information primarily focuses on the device's regulatory approval based on its substantial equivalence to predicate devices, rather than detailed performance studies with acceptance criteria in the typical sense of clinical or technical performance metrics.

Therefore, many of the requested elements for a comprehensive description of acceptance criteria and a study proving device performance (like specific performance metrics, sample sizes for test sets, expert involvement, MRMC studies, standalone performance, and detailed ground truth establishment) are not present in this regulatory document.

However, I can extract the available information and indicate where details are missing based on the document.


Acceptance Criteria and Device Performance

Based on the provided document, the "acceptance criteria" appear to be related to demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices under the 510(k) pathway, specifically concerning safety and effectiveness. The "device performance" is primarily assessed through non-clinical testing to show this equivalence.

Acceptance Criteria CategorySpecific Criteria (Inferred from document)Reported Device Performance
Intended UseThe modified device must maintain the same intended use as the predicate.The modifications "change neither the intended use" of the device.
Fundamental Scientific TechnologyThe modified device must utilize the same fundamental scientific technology as the predicate.The modifications "change neither... the fundamental scientific technology of the device."
Manufacturing ProcessThe device must be manufactured using the same processes as the predicate.ZMR XL components are "manufactured... using the same processes."
PackagingThe device must be packaged using the same methods as the predicate.ZMR XL components are "packaged... using the same processes."
SterilizationThe device must be sterilized using the same methods as the predicate.ZMR XL components are "sterilized using the same processes."
MaterialsThe device must use the same materials as the predicate.ZMR XL components are "materials" [used are the same]. (Implied by context of "same processes and materials").
Non-clinical PerformanceThe device must demonstrate equivalence to the predicate device through non-clinical testing."Non-clinical performance testing demonstrated that the device is equivalent to the predicate."

Study Details

Given the nature of this document (a 510(k) Summary of Safety and Effectiveness for a device modification), explicit details about a detailed study with specific performance metrics, sample sizes, and expert ground truth are not provided. The term "Performance Data" in this context refers to the non-clinical testing supporting substantial equivalence.

Here's what can be inferred or explicitly stated:

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

    • Not provided. The document states "Non-clinical performance testing," but does not detail the nature of this testing, the number of samples, or the data provenance. This typically refers to bench testing (e.g., mechanical, fatigue, wear) in a lab setting, not human subject data.
  2. 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/Not provided. For non-clinical performance testing of a hip prosthesis, "ground truth" as established by medical experts for diagnostic purposes (like radiologists) is not relevant. Performance is typically measured against engineering standards or predicate device specifications.
  3. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set:

    • Not applicable/Not provided. Adjudication methods are typically associated with clinical trials or diagnostic accuracy studies involving human interpretation. For non-clinical performance testing, test results are usually objective and compared directly to pre-defined specification limits or predicate device results.
  4. 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. An MRMC study is not relevant here. This is a hip prosthesis, not a diagnostic imaging device involving human readers or AI assistance in interpretation.
  5. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done:

    • Not applicable. This is a hardware device (hip prosthesis), not an algorithm or software.
  6. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc):

    • Not applicable in the medical expert sense. For non-clinical performance testing, the "ground truth" would be established engineering specifications, mechanical test standards (e.g., ISO or ASTM for implants), or direct comparison to the physical properties/performance of the predicate device. The document does not specify these details, only that "Non-clinical performance testing demonstrated that the device is equivalent to the predicate."
  7. The sample size for the training set:

    • Not applicable. This is a hardware device, not a machine learning model, so there is no training set.
  8. How the ground truth for the training set was established:

    • Not applicable. (See point 7).

Dear Mr. Williman:

This letter corrects our substantially equivalent letter of June 24, 2003.

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA). it may be subject to additional controls.

§ 888.3358 Hip joint metal/polymer/metal semi-constrained porous-coated uncemented prosthesis.

(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)
Classification. Class II.
