Synthes 3.5mm LCP Posteromedial Proximal Tibia Plates are indicated for internal fixation of posteromedial proximal tibia fractures including buttressing of fractures of the proximal, distal, and metaphyseal areas of the tibia.
The Synthes 3.5mm LCP Posteromedial Proximal Tibia Plates are pre-contoured bone fixation plates intended for the treatment of fractures of the tibia. The plates are offered sterile and non-sterile and are available in stainless steel and titanium.
Here's an analysis of the provided text regarding the acceptance criteria and study for the Synthes (USA) 3.5mm LCP Posteromedial Proximal Tibia Plates:
Based on the provided [K082624](https://510k.innolitics.com/search/K082624) document, there is no study described that establishes acceptance criteria for device performance in the context of human or AI-assisted interpretation.
This document is a 510(k) summary for a medical device (bone fixation plates), which primarily focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device. This type of submission typically relies on design, material, and mechanical testing to ensure safety and effectiveness, rather than clinical studies involving diagnostic accuracy or human performance with or without AI.
Therefore, most of the requested information regarding acceptance criteria, study design, expert involvement, and AI performance is not present in this document.
Here's a breakdown of what can be extracted and what is not present:
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance
Not applicable as an AI/human interpretation study is not described. The acceptance criteria for this device would typically be related to mechanical properties (e.g., strength, fatigue life), biocompatibility, and sterilization, which are not detailed in this 510(k) summary beyond the general statement of substantial equivalence.
2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance
Not applicable. No test set for an AI/human interpretation study is described.
3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Their Qualifications
Not applicable. No ground truth for an AI/human interpretation study is described.
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set
Not applicable. No adjudication method for an AI/human interpretation study is described because there is no such study.
5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study
No. The document makes no mention of an MRMC study or any study comparing human readers with and without AI assistance. This device is a passive implant, not a diagnostic or interpretive tool.
6. Standalone (Algorithm Only) Performance Study
No. This is not an AI algorithm.
7. Type of Ground Truth Used
Not applicable. No ground truth (in the context of diagnostic performance or interpretation) is mentioned. For this type of device, "ground truth" would relate to the successful fixation of fractures, assessed by clinical outcomes and imaging following surgery, which are not part of this 510(k) clearance document.
8. Sample Size for the Training Set
Not applicable. There is no AI algorithm being trained.
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established
Not applicable. There is no AI algorithm being trained.
In summary: The provided document [K082624](https://510k.innolitics.com/search/K082624) is a 510(k) summary for a physical medical device (bone plates). It demonstrates substantial equivalence to predicate devices, which is a regulatory pathway that does not typically involve the kind of performance studies you're asking about (e.g., AI performance, human reader studies, diagnostic accuracy, etc.). Therefore, the information requested in your prompt is not contained within this document.

Dear Mr. Nittinger:
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.

§ 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.
