Intended Use

The REMA Shaver Blades are intended to provide shaving, cutting and abrading of bone and tissue during arthroscopic surgical procedures conducted by qualified surgeons.

Device Description

The REMA Shaver Blades consists of an outer tube with a hub and a rotating inner tube with a connector. The inner and outer tube consists of stainless steel. The hub and connector can consist of stainless steel or Polyphenylsulfone (PPSU). The components are designed and intended to be operated exclusively as a unit.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text describes a 510(k) summary for REMA Shaver Blades, which is a medical device. However, the document does not contain any information regarding acceptance criteria, performance studies, sample sizes, expert involvement, or any of the other specific details requested in your prompt.

The document primarily focuses on:

  • Identification of the device and applicant.
  • Classification and proprietary names.
  • Identification of predicate devices.
  • Description of the device's components and materials.
  • Intended use/indications.
  • A general statement about safety and substantial equivalence based on material selection and similarity to predicate devices.
  • The FDA's decision letter regarding substantial equivalence.

Therefore, I cannot provide the requested table and study details as they are not present in the given text.

The table below reflects that the requested information is not available in the provided document.

Information CategoryDetails from provided document
