AI/ML Overview

This is a 510(k) summary for a medical device (Edgelock Plate System) and does not contain information about an AI/ML powered device or a study involving human readers or ground truth in the context of diagnostic performance. Therefore, most of the requested fields cannot be filled.

Here's what can be extracted:

Device Name: Edgelock Plate System

Device Description: The OrthoHelix Edgelock Plate System is a set of metallic, implantable, bone fixation plates, made from implant grade titanium alloy.

Intended Use/Indications for Use: The Edgelock Plate System is indicated for fixation of fractures, fusions and osteotomies of small bones in the hand, wrist, foot and ankle in pediatric and adult patients.

Study Type: Substantial Equivalence Study


1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance

Acceptance CriteriaReported Device Performance
Substantial equivalence to predicate devices (Edgelock Plate System) for intended use.Finite Element Analysis and mechanical testing confirm that the implants within the Edgelock Plate System are substantially equivalent to its predicate devices. The device meets the specified requirements for its intended use.
No new issues of safety or efficacy raised.No new issues of safety or efficacy have been raised.

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

This information is not provided in the 510(k) summary. The study was a non-clinical evaluation (Finite Element Analysis and mechanical testing) comparing the device to its predicates.

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)

Not applicable. The study involved engineering analysis and mechanical testing, not ground truth established by medical experts.

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

Not applicable. This was a non-clinical study.

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

Not applicable. This device is a bone fixation plate, not an AI-powered diagnostic tool, and no MRMC study was conducted.

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

Not applicable. This is a physical medical device, not an algorithm.

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

Not applicable. The "ground truth" equivalent here would be engineering standards and performance characteristics for bone fixation plates, established through Finite Element Analysis and mechanical testing, and comparison to predicate devices, rather than medical ground truth.

8. The sample size for the training set

Not applicable. This is a physical medical device, not an AI/ML algorithm requiring a training set.

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

Not applicable. This is a physical medical device, not an AI/ML algorithm.

Dear Mr. Lewis:

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. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to 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); medical device reporting (reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803); 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.
