The R3 Constrained Liner Acetabular System is a cemented or uncemented prosthesis intended to replace a hip joint. The Constrained Liner is intended for primary or revision patients at high risk for hip dislocation due to a history of prior dislocation, bone loss, soft tissue laxity, neuromuscular disease, or intra-operative instability and for whom all other options to constrained acefabular components have been considered. The R3 Constrained Liner is intended for single use only.
The R3 Constrained Liner and Shell Construct is a multi-piece acetabular component made up of an R3 Shell and the Constrained Liner Constrained Liner Construct includes a bipolar bearing which articulates with a captured outer polyethylene liner, locking ring and outer poly support ring.
The R3 Constrained Liner may be used with previously implanted femoral stems, femoral heads and acetabular shells as in a revision case, or it may be used in primary cases and implanted along with a shell, head and stem. The R3 Constrained liner was designed to be used with existing Smith & Nephew hip components. The R3 Constrained Liner should not be used with ceramic femoral heads or skirted femoral heads of any material.
The provided document is a 510(k) summary for the Smith & Nephew R3 Constrained Liners. This document details the regulatory clearance process for a medical device and relies on showing "substantial equivalence" to a predicate device, rather than explicit acceptance criteria and performance studies for the new device.
Therefore, the document does not contain the requested information regarding specific acceptance criteria, a study proving the device meets those criteria, sample sizes, data provenance, expert ground truth establishment, adjudication methods, MRMC studies, standalone performance, or training set details.
Instead, the document states:
- D. Summary of Technological comparison: "The intended use, design, and materials of the R3 Constrained Liners are substantially equivalent to the previously cleared Osteonics Constrained Liners (P960047). Design Control Activities have been completed and the results indicated that the subject device is safe and effective."
This indicates that the safety and effectiveness of the R3 Constrained Liners were established through design control activities and a comparison to a predicate device, rather than through a performance study against predefined acceptance criteria for the new device as would be typical for software or AI medical devices.
To answer your request, if this were a software/AI device, I would need a different type of submission document that would detail performance studies.

Dear Mr. Sells:
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.
This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your Section 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.
If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801), please contact the Center for Devices and Radiological Health's (CDRH's) Office of Compliance at (240) 276-0120. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21CFR Part 807.97). For questions regarding postmarket surveillance, please contact CDRH's Office of Surveillance and Biometric's (OSB's) Division of Postmarket Surveillance at 240-276-3474.

§ 888.3310 Hip joint metal/polymer constrained cemented or uncemented prosthesis.
(a)
Identification. A hip joint metal/polymer constrained cemented or uncemented prosthesis is a device intended to be implanted to replace a hip joint. The device prevents dislocation in more than one anatomic plane and has components that are linked together. This generic type of device includes prostheses that have a femoral component made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum, and an acetabular component made of ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene with or without a metal shell, made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum and titanium alloys. This generic type of device is intended for use with or without bone cement (§ 888.3027).(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). The special control for this device is the FDA guidance document entitled “Class II Special Controls Guidance: Hip Joint Metal/Polymer Constrained Cemented or Uncemented Prosthesis.”
