Intended Use

The SBi SR MTP Toe Implant is intended for use as a hemi-arthroplasty implant for the metatarsophalangeal joint, for the treatment of degenerative and posttraumatic arthritis, hallux valgus, hallux rigidus, and an unstable or painful metatarsophalangeal (MTP) joint. The SBi SR MTP Toe Implant is intended for implantation with and without bone cement.

Device Description

The SBi SR MTP Toe Implant is a one-piece, stemmed device intended to replace the articulating surface of the metatarsal at the MTP joint. The implant is available in a range of sizes to match the geometry of the metatarsal head. Design features include an articulating surface which extends posteriorly on the superior side of the implant and a gently barbed stem to improve fixation in the metatarsal. The implants are made from wrought CoCrMo alloy (ASTM F1587) with a plasma coating comprised of commercially pure titanium (ASTM F1580).

AI/ML Overview

This device is a SBi SR MTP Toe Implant, a medical device, not an AI/ML device. Therefore, the concepts of "acceptance criteria" and "study that proves the device meets the acceptance criteria" in the context of AI/ML performance metrics (such as sensitivity, specificity, F1-score, sample sizes for test/training sets, expert consensus for ground truth, MRMC studies) are not applicable.

Instead, for a medical device like this implant, the "acceptance criteria" and "proof" involve demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device already legally marketed. This typically involves comparing characteristics such as:

  • Intended Use: The purpose for which the device is used.
  • Technological Characteristics: The materials, design, and other technical aspects of the device.
  • Performance Data: This might include mechanical testing (e.g., strength, wear) to show the new device performs similarly or better than the predicate, or sometimes clinical data if there are significant differences in technological characteristics or intended use that raise new safety or effectiveness questions.

The provided document, a 510(k) summary and FDA clearance letter, explicitly states how this "acceptance" was met:

Substantial Equivalence:

  • The document states: "Documentation was provided which demonstrated the SBi SR MTP Toe Implant is substantially equivalent to other legally marketed devices."
  • The FDA's letter confirms: "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..."

Therefore, the "study" proving the device met "acceptance criteria" was a demonstration of substantial equivalence based on a comparison to a predicate device, as required for 510(k) clearance by the FDA. The document does not contain the specific performance data (e.g., mechanical testing results) that would have been submitted to demonstrate this equivalence, but rather the conclusion of the FDA's review.

Given this context, I cannot fill in the table or answer the subsequent questions as they pertain to AI/ML device evaluations, which are not relevant here.

Dear Mr. Zigler:

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.
