Intended Use

The I.T.S. Distal Humeral Plates with Angular Stability is a titanium implant fracture fixation system for stabilizing fractures of the distal humerus in the elbow of a pediatric or adult patient.

Indications for Use include intra-articular fractures, supracondylar fractures, osteotomies, and non-unions of the distal humerus.

Device Description

The I.T.S. GmbH Distal Humeral Plates with Angular Stability is a fracture fixation plating system for repairing factures located in the distal area of the humerus in the elbow (in the area of medial and lateral epicondyles of the distal humerus). The Distal Humeral Plates consist of two plate designs as a medial (8 hole) and dorsolateral (5 hole) left and right plate configuration - anatomically pre-contoured to fit the distal humerus human anatomy and manufactured from Commercialy Pure (CP) Titanium material for minor intra-operative forming by the surgeon. The offset opposite location of the plates on the medial and lateral epicondyles provide a girder-like construct for difficult bone fracture reconstruction stability. The added benefit of locking screws within each plate and up to a +- 15° angle position allows a fixed-angle contruct of screw-to-plate and offers angle-flexibility in screw positioning for further optimal fracture stability. Small holes in the plate allow intermediate 'k-wire bone fracture segment positioning' for reducing and aligning the fracture bone segments while positioning the plates and introducing multiple sizes of locking/non-locking screws as needed for stabilizing the fracture(s) - when using optional x-ray fluroscopy. The system offers a 3.5mm locking and non-locking cortical screw and a 4.2mm locking cancellous screw in multiple lengths manufactured from High Strength 6-4 Alloyed Titanium material. All plates and screws are processed with a TIODIZE II surface treatment - which improves the material surface hardness and biocompatibility to adjacent tissues. The low-profile and contoured left and right plate design minimizes soft-tissue irritation for the patient. A full compliment of instrumentation is available for use with the system.

AI/ML Overview

I am sorry but the provided text does not contain information about acceptance criteria, device performance results, or a clinical study. The document is a 510(k) summary for a medical device (Distal Humeral Plates with Angular Stability) seeking marketing clearance based on substantial equivalence to predicate devices, not on direct performance against acceptance criteria from a study. It outlines the device description, intended use, and substantial equivalence to legally marketed devices. Therefore, I cannot generate the requested table and answer the study-related questions based on this input.

Dear Mr. Lippincott:

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.

§ 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.
