The Zimmer Periarticular Locking Plate System is a plate and screw system intended for internal fracture fixation. The low-profile periarticular locking plate is anatomically contoured and has threaded holes which accept locking screws to create a stable, fixed angle construct.

AI/ML Overview

This is a 510(k) premarket notification for a medical device (Zimmer Periarticular Locking Plates), not an AI/ML device. Therefore, the typical acceptance criteria and study designs relevant to AI/ML device performance (like those involving test sets, ground truth, expert adjudication, MRMC studies, or standalone algorithm performance) are not applicable or detailed in this document.

The document states:

Performance Data: "The results of non-clinical (laboratory) performance testing demonstrate that the device is safe and effective."
Comparison to Predicate Device: "The Zimmer Periarticular Locking Plate System has the same intended use, has similar performance characteristics, is manufactured from similar materials using similar processes, and is similar in design to the predicate devices."

This indicates that the acceptance criteria for this device are based on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a previously cleared predicate device through non-clinical (laboratory) performance testing, which typically includes mechanical and material testing to ensure safety and effectiveness for its stated intended use.

Since this is not an AI/ML device, the specific information requested in the prompt regarding AI/ML device performance evaluation (e.g., sample sizes for test/training sets, data provenance, number/qualifications of experts, adjudication methods, MRMC studies, standalone performance, ground truth types) is not present in the provided text.

Dear Ms. Williams:

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 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.

Regulation Number and Section

§ 888.3030 Single/multiple component metallic bone fixation appliances and accessories.

(a)
Identification. Single/multiple component metallic bone fixation appliances and accessories are devices intended to be implanted consisting of one or more metallic components and their metallic fasteners. The devices contain a plate, a nail/plate combination, or a blade/plate combination that are made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum, stainless steel, and titanium, that are intended to be held in position with fasteners, such as screws and nails, or bolts, nuts, and washers. These devices are used for fixation of fractures of the proximal or distal end of long bones, such as intracapsular, intertrochanteric, intercervical, supracondylar, or condylar fractures of the femur; for fusion of a joint; or for surgical procedures that involve cutting a bone. The devices may be implanted or attached through the skin so that a pulling force (traction) may be applied to the skeletal system.(b)
Classification. Class II.
