Intended Use

The OSStaple™ Chill is indicated for: Fracture and osteotomy fixation and joint arthrodesis of the hand and foot and, Fixation of proximal tibial metaphysis osteotomy.

Device Description

The OSStaple M Chill is a nitinol implant that comes in a range of sizes and models for use in extremity bone fragment fixation, osteotomy fixation, and joint arthrodesis. The implant is delivered to the operating room in an "open" martensitic state. The implant is. then transformed by body heat after insertion, and contracts to a "closed" austenitic state. The OSStaple TM Chill differs from the OSStaple TM in that the staples:do not require any external heating; they are completely transformed by body heat. The OSStaple! 100 Chill also includes staples with smooth and barbed legs to achieve increased pull-out resistance: All other characteristics of the implant are identical to the OSStapleTM predicate.

AI/ML Overview

This is a medical device 510(k) premarket notification for a bone staple. It does not contain information about the acceptance criteria and study proving a device meets acceptance criteria related to software or AI/ML performance. Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information about AI/ML device performance.

The document describes the OSStaple™ Chill, a nitinol implant for bone fixation. The "Device Description and Testing" section mentions "Bench testing of the OSStaple™ Chill showed that the implants remain in their open martensitic state at operating room temperatures (20°C - 24°C), and fully transform to their closed shape by body temperature (37°C). Testing also showed that both the smooth and barbed versions of the OSStaple™ Chill achieve equivalent or superior pullout resistance to the OSStaple™."

This relates to the physical and mechanical properties of the staple, not to an AI/ML device.

The implant is delivered to the operating room in an "open" martensitic state. The implant is. then transformed by body heat after insertion, and contracts to a "closed" austenitic state.

The OSStaple TM Chill differs from the OSStaple TM in that the staples:do not require any external heating; they are completely transformed by body heat. The OSStaple! 100 Chill also includes staples with smooth and barbed legs to achieve increased pull-out resistance: All other characteristics of the implant are identical to the OSStapleTM predicate.

Bench testing of the OSStaple™ Chill showed that the implants remain in their open martensitic state at operating room temperatures (209C - 249C), and fully transform to. their closed shape by body temperature (37°C). Testing also showed that both the smooth and barbed versions of the OSStaple™ Chill achieve equivalent or superior pullout resistance to the OSStapleTM ..

§ 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.
