Device Description

The TaperIoc® Complete Microplasty Stems are an update to the existing TaperIoc® Microplasty Stems and are designed to replace the patient's natural hip, femoral neck, and head, due to disease or accident. The Taperloc® Complete Microplasty Stems will combine the design features of the Taperioc® Complete full-length stems to the shortened design of the existing Taperloc® Microplasty Stems. These design features include: a reduced neck angle, shorter/longer neck lengths, reduced Type 1 taper geometry with neck flats, polished neck, standard and high offset versions, two distal profiles, and an updated insertion hole. Stem sizes ranges are within the ranges of legally marketed predicates. The substrate material is Ti-6AI-AV, ASTM F-136. The proximal intramedullary region is sprayed with porous plasma spray.

AI/ML Overview

Here's an analysis of the provided text regarding the acceptance criteria and the study that proves the device meets them:

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

Acceptance CriteriaReported Device Performance
Distal Stem Fatigue:
ISO 7206-4:2002, ASTM F2068-03Passed for 5 million cycles at 67 lbs to 517 lbs (for 6 worst-case stems)
Proximal Stem Fatigue:
ISO 7206-6:1992Passed for 10 million cycles at 120 lbs (for 6 worst-case stems)
Range of Motion Analysis:
ISO 21535:2009Passed its simulation
PPS Plasma Sprayed Coating Characterization:Meets the regulatory definition of porous coating for the hip construct per 21 CFR 888.3358.

2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance

  • Sample Size for Mechanical Testing: 6 worst-case stems were used for both distal and proximal stem fatigue testing. The sample size for the Range of Motion analysis is not explicitly stated but implies at least one simulation.
  • Data Provenance: The data is from non-clinical testing performed by Biomet Manufacturing Corp. The country of origin is not explicitly stated, but the company is based in Warsaw, IN, USA. The data is prospective in the sense that it was generated for the purpose of this 510(k) submission, not gathered retrospectively from existing patient data.

3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications of Those Experts

This section is not applicable as the studies described are non-clinical mechanical engineering tests, not studies requiring human expert assessment of medical images or patient outcomes. The "ground truth" for these tests is defined by the international standards (e.g., ISO, ASTM) and the specified load/cycle requirements.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

This section is not applicable for the same reasons as above. There were no human expert assessments requiring adjudication. The tests were objective mechanical measurements against predefined pass/fail criteria.

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, a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was not done. The document explicitly states: "Clinical Testing: None provided as a basis for substantial equivalence." This device is a hip implant, and the testing described is mechanical, not related to AI-assisted human reading.

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

No, a standalone algorithm performance study was not done. This device is a physical medical implant, not an algorithm or AI system.

7. The Type of Ground Truth Used

The ground truth used for these non-clinical tests was based on internationally recognized engineering standards and specifications. Specifically:

  • Distal Stem Fatigue: ISO 7206-4:2002, ASTM F2068-03
  • Proximal Stem Fatigue: ISO 7206-6:1992
  • Range of Motion Analysis: ISO 21535:2009
  • PPS Plasma Sprayed Coating: "Guidance Document for Testing Orthopedic Implants with Modified Metallic Surfaces Apposing Bone or Bone Cement" and 21 CFR 888.3358.

The "ground truth" is therefore adherence to these established mechanical performance and material characterization standards.

8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

This section is not applicable. There is no "training set" as this is not an AI/machine learning device. The number of samples for mechanical testing (6 worst-case stems) served as the test set.

9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established

This section is not applicable for the same reason as above. There is no training set mentioned or implied.

Summary of Technologies:

The technological characteristics are the same as the predicates identified in the Legally Marketed Devices to which substantial equivalence is claimed. The subject microplasty stems are designed to update the existing Taperloc® Microplasty implants (K062994) to join the Taperloc® Complete family of stems as a microplasty option. The subject microplasty stems combine the design features of the Taperloc® Complete full-length stems (K101086 and K103755) and the shortened design of the Taperloc® Microplasty stems, both standard and high offset, or lateralized (K062994). Technological characteristics include a tapered wedge, a porous plasma sprayed region, a modified shortened trunnion (Type 1), a reduced neck angle, two distal profiles and an updated insertion/extraction hole, identical to the Taperloc® Complete full-length stem predicates (K101086 and K103755). Stem lengths are within the range of the legally marketed predicates.

Non-Clinical Testing:

Nonclinical performance testing included distal and proximal stem fatigue testing of the worst-case stem, consistent with the "Guidance for Industry and FDA Staff Non-clinical Information for Femoral Stem Prostheses", ISO 7206-4:2002, ASTM F2068-03 and ISO 7206-6:1992, as well as a Range of Motion analysis consistent with ISO 21535:2009. All 6 stems passed distal stem fatigue for 5 million cycles at 67 lbs to 517lbs,

{2}------------------------------------------------

meeting the acceptance criteria. All 6 stems passed 10 million cycles at 120lbs in proximal fatigue test, meeting the acceptance criteria. The minimum Range of Motion passed its simulation, meeting the acceptance criteria.

Additional Ti-alloy (ASTM F1580) plasma sprayed metallic coating characterization data was performed for clarification per the "Guidance Document for Testing Orthopedic Implants with Modified Metallic Surfaces Apposing Bone or Bone Cement" and per the "Guidance for Industry on the Testing of Metallic Plasma Sprayed Coatings on Orthopedic Implants to Support Reconsideration of Postmarket Surveillance Requirements." The PPS plasma sprayed coating is the same as the PPS coating previously cleared and meets the regulatory definition of porous coating for the hip construct per 21 CFR 888.3358.

Clinical Testing:

None provided as a basis for substantial equivalence.

The results of mechanical testing indicated the devices performed within the intended use, did not raise any new safety and efficacy issues and were found to be substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.

§ 888.3330 Hip joint metal/metal semi-constrained, with an uncemented acetabular component, prosthesis.

(a)
Identification. A hip joint metal/metal semi-constrained, with an uncemented acetabular component, prosthesis is a two-part device intended to be implanted to replace a hip joint. The device limits translation and rotation in one or more planes via the geometry of its articulating surfaces. It has no linkage across-the-joint. This generic type of device includes prostheses that consist of a femoral and an acetabular component, both made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum. The femoral component is intended to be fixed with bone cement. The acetabular component is intended for use without bone cement (§ 888.3027).(b)
Classification. Class III.(c)
Date PMA or notice of completion of PDP is required. A PMA or a notice of completion of a PDP is required to be filed with the Food and Drug Administration on or before May 18, 2016, for any hip joint metal/metal semi-constrained prosthesis with an uncemented acetabular component that was in commercial distribution before May 28, 1976, or that has, on or before May 18, 2016, been found to be substantially equivalent to a hip joint metal/metal semi-constrained prosthesis with an uncemented acetabular component that was in commercial distribution before May 28, 1976. Any other hip joint metal/metal semi-constrained prosthesis with an uncemented acetabular component shall have an approved PMA or a declared completed PDP in effect before being placed in commercial distribution.
