Intended Use

PLEXUR P is intended for use in filling bony voids or gaps of the skeletal system (i.e., spine, pelvis and extremities) that are not intrinsic to the stability of the bony structure. These defects may be surgically created osseous defects or osseous defects resulting from traumatic injury to the bone. Plexur P may also be used as a bone graft extender in the spine. PLEXUR P is resorbed/remodeled and is replaced by host bone during the healing process.

Device Description

PLEXUR P is bone void filler that contains as its principal constituents processed human allograft bone tissue and a resorbable polymer. PLEXUR P is produced in various physical forms/shapes/geometries and may be further shaped or cut by the surgeon to meet the particular needs and preferences of the surgeon. PLEXUR P is intended for use as bone void filler in bony voids or gaps of the skeletal system (i.e., spine, pelvis, and extremities) not intrinsic to the stability of the bony structure. Plexur P mav also be used as a bone graft extender in the spine. PLEXUR P is provided in ready-to-use form in various package sizes by volume or dimension and is intended for single patient use.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text describes the 510(k) summary for the PLEXUR P bone void filler. It indicates that the device has been found substantially equivalent to predicate devices based on certain performance data. However, the document does not include specific acceptance criteria, nor does it detail a study with quantitative results that definitively "proves" the device meets such criteria in the way a clinical trial or a statistically powered non-inferiority study would.

Here's an analysis based on the provided text:

1. Table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance

The document does not explicitly state quantitative acceptance criteria or provide a table of performance metrics. The core of the performance evaluation is based on a comparative, rather than absolute, standard against predicate devices.

Acceptance Criteria (Not Explicitly Stated, Inferred)Reported Device Performance
Support bone in-growth comparable to predicate devicesPLEXUR P supports bone in-growth to an extent at a rate at least comparable to predicate devices.
Support new bone formation comparable to predicate devicesPLEXUR P supports new bone formation to an extent at a rate at least comparable to predicate devices.

2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective)

  • Sample Size for Test Set: The document states "studies in animal" but does not specify the number of animals or the overall sample size used in these studies.
  • Data Provenance: The studies were conducted "in animal." No country of origin is mentioned, and it is implied to be prospective animal studies, not retrospective human data.

3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts (e.g. radiologist with 10 years of experience)

This information is not provided. The animal studies would likely involve veterinary pathologists or researchers assessing bone healing, but no details are given.

4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set

This information is not provided in the document.

5. If a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance

No such study was conducted. This device is a bone void filler, not an AI-powered diagnostic tool, so an MRMC study comparing human readers with and without AI assistance is not applicable.

6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done

This is not applicable as the device is a medical implant, not an algorithm.

7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.)

The ground truth for the animal studies would have been based on biological and histological assessments of bone in-growth and new bone formation, likely through techniques such as histology, histomorphometry, and potentially imaging of the bone healing process. This would fall under pathology/biological outcomes in animal models.

8. The sample size for the training set

This is not applicable as the device is an implant and does not involve machine learning or a training set in the typical sense.

9. How the ground truth for the training set was established

This is not applicable as the device is an implant and does not involve machine learning or a training set.

    1. Name of Product:
Trade/Proprietary/Model Name:PLEXUR P
Common or Usual Name:Bone Void Filler
Classification Name:Resorbable Bone Void Filler
    1. Devices to Which New Product is Substantially Equivalent:
      PLEXUR P is substantially equivalent, for the purpose of this 510(k), to other devices that have received 510(k) clearance for similar indications for use.
    1. Device Description:
      PLEXUR P is bone void filler that contains as its principal constituents processed human allograft bone tissue and a resorbable polymer. PLEXUR P is produced in various physical forms/shapes/geometries and may be further shaped or cut by the surgeon to meet the particular needs and preferences of the surgeon. PLEXUR P is intended for use as bone void filler in bony voids or gaps of the skeletal system (i.e., spine, pelvis, and extremities) not intrinsic to the stability of the bony structure. Plexur P mav also be used as a bone graft extender in the spine. PLEXUR P is provided in ready-to-use form in various package sizes by volume or dimension and is intended for single patient use.
    1. Intended Use/Indications
      PLEXUR P is intended for use in filling bony voids or gaps of the skeletal system (i.e., spine, extremities, and pelvis) that are not intrinsic to the stability of the bony structure. These defects may be surgically created osseous defects or osseous defects resulting from traumatic injury to the bone. Plexur P may also be used as a bone graft extender in the spine. PLEXUR P is resorbed/remodeled and is replaced by host bone during the healing process.

{1}------------------------------------------------

6. Technical Comparison

PLEXUR P is substantially equivalent to one or more of the predicate devices with respect to materials. PLEXUR P contains human allograft bone tissue and polymer that are resorbed and/or remodeled into new host bone. The predicate devices also contain materials that are resorbed and /or remodeled into new host bone. Moreover, like the predicate devices, PLEXUR P is provided ready-to-use in various forms that can be cut or shaped by the user into various shapes or sizes.

    1. Performance Data
      The results of studies in animal showed that PLEXUR P supports bone in-growth and new bone formation to an extent at a rate at least comparable to predicate devices.
    1. Viral Inactivation
      In the production of Plexur P, the allograft bone is subjected to processing steps that have been shown to inactivate viruses, including HIV, hepatitis B and C and CMV.
