AI/ML Overview

The provided text is a 510(k) summary for the BIORAPTOR PK Suture Anchor. It primarily focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices based on intended use and technological characteristics, particularly material composition. It does not contain the kind of detailed information about acceptance criteria, specific device performance metrics, study designs (sample sizes, data provenance, ground truth establishment, expert qualifications, adjudication methods), or comparative effectiveness studies (MRMC, standalone) that your request outlines.

Therefore, I cannot extract the requested information from the provided text. The document states:

  • "The performance testing conducted demonstrates that the insertion and fixation properties of the BIORAPTOR PK anchor are substantially equivalent to the Smith & Nephew BIORAPTOR OC and the Smith & Nephew KINSA anchors."

This is a general statement of equivalency based on performance testing, but it does not provide the specific data points, acceptance criteria, or methodological details required to answer your questions comprehensively.

In summary, the document does not contain the information needed to fill out your request.

§ 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.
