Synthes Lateral Entry Femoral Nail System is intended to stabilize femoral shaft fractures, subtrochanteric fractures, ipsilateral neck/shaft fractures, impending pathologic fractures, non-unions and malunions.
Synthes Lateral Entry Femoral Nail System is composed of cannulated femoral nails, solid 6.5 mm recon locking screws and cannulated end caps. Recon locking screws, as well as Synthes commercially available 5.0 mm and 6.0 mm locking screws, are used to secure the nail in the bone.
The provided text is a 510(k) summary for the Synthes (USA) Lateral Entry Femoral Nail System. It describes the device, its indications for use, and its substantial equivalence to predicate devices. However, this document describes a medical device (intramedullary fixation rod), not an AI/ML powered device, and therefore does not contain information typically found in a study proving an AI/ML device meets acceptance criteria.
Specifically, the document does not provide information on:
- Acceptance criteria for an AI/ML device: As it's a physical device, the acceptance criteria would relate to mechanical properties, biocompatibility, and manufacturing quality, not performance metrics like accuracy, sensitivity, or specificity.
- A study proving an AI/ML device meets acceptance criteria: The 510(k) process for this type of device relies on demonstrating substantial equivalence to legally marketed predicate devices, often through mechanical testing, material characterization, and comparison of design features and indications for use, rather than a clinical study evaluating AI performance.
Therefore, I cannot populate the requested table and answer the study-specific questions for an AI/ML device based on the provided text. The document's purpose is to establish "substantial equivalence" of a medical implant to existing devices for market clearance, not to evaluate the performance of an AI/ML algorithm.

Trade/Device Name: Synthes (USA) Lateral Entry Femoral Nail System Regulation Number: 21 CFR 888.3020 Regulation Name: Intramedullary fixation rod Regulatory Class: II Product Code: HSB Dated: February 10, 2004 Received: February 11, 2004
Dear Ms. Musgnung:
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 enclosurc) 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 application (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 such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.

This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your Section 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.
If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801), please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4659. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21CFR Part 807.97). You may obtain other general information on your responsibilities under the Act from the Division of Small Manufacturers, International and Consumer Assistance at its toll-free number (800) 638-2041 or (301) 443-6597 or at its Internet address http://www.fda.gov/cdrh/dsma/dsmamain.html
