The METS® Modular Total Femur is intended for the replacement of the total femoral bone.
Limb salvage procedures where radical resection and replacement of the bone is required
Painful and disabled joint resulting from avascular necrosis osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis or traumatic arthritis
Correction of varus, valgus or post traumatic deformity
Correction of revision of unsuccessful osteotomy, arthrodesis, or previous joint replacement
Ligament deficiencies
Tumor resections
Revision of previously failed total joint arthroplasty
Trauma
Treatment of non-unions, femoral neck and trochanteric fracture of the proximal femur with head involvement, unmanageable using other techniques
All of the METS® Modular Total Femur tibial and acetabular components are for cemented use only
All of the METS® Modular Total Femur and their components are for single use only
The single use METS® Modular Total Femur is a standard modular system that is intended for the replacement of diseased or deficient bone in the femur. The system is intended for cemented use only and comprises titanium (Ti) components including a trochanter section, shaft. The trochanter trunnion is made to interchange with Stanmore Implants Worldwide Limited's, 28mm and 32mm Ø Cobalt Chrome femoral heads. The METS® Modular Total Femur is offered with an optional set of trochanters which are only to be used for hard tissue attachment using a plate and two screws, or Ti or cobalt chromium (CoCr) wire. A range of shafts, femoral component (including axle, bushes and circlip), bumper and the SMILES knee (available in 3 types of arrangements and in a rotating or fixed configuration). The materials used in the manufacture of the systems include titanium (Ti), cobalt-chromium-molybdenum (CoCrMo) and ultra high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE).
The provided text describes a medical device, the METS® MODULAR TOTAL FEMUR, and its regulatory clearance process (510(k) summary). However, it does not contain information related to software performance, AI algorithms, or detailed acceptance criteria for a study proving such performance.
The "Performance Data" section specifically states:
- Non Clinical Testing: "The results of the non-clinical performance testing demonstrate that the device is safe and effective and substantially equivalent to the predicate devices. The Performance testing included: knee fatigue and wear test, disassembly force testing for the taper connections, ASTM F1800-07." This refers to mechanical and material performance of the physical implant, not a software or AI component.
- Clinical Performance Conclusions: "Clinical evaluation was carried out based upon published papers and post market surveillance." This indicates a review of existing literature and real-world data, not a specific clinical study with defined acceptance criteria for a device's performance that would involve expert review or ground truth establishment in the way your request describes.
Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information, such as:
- A table of acceptance criteria and reported device performance: This document does not define numerical acceptance criteria for "device performance" in the context of an algorithm or AI.
- Sample size used for the test set and data provenance: No such test set is described for performance evaluation in the context of an algorithm.
- Number of experts used to establish ground truth and their qualifications: Not applicable to the type of performance data presented.
- Adjudication method: Not applicable.
- Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study: Not conducted or reported for this device's performance as described.
- Standalone (algorithm only) performance: Not applicable as this is a physical medical implant.
- Type of ground truth used: Not applicable.
- Sample size for the training set: Not applicable as there is no mention of a training set for an algorithm.
- How ground truth for the training set was established: Not applicable.
The document focuses on the mechanical safety and effectiveness of a femoral implant and its substantial equivalence to previously cleared predicate devices, based on physical testing and literature review. It is not an AI/software device and thus does not include the type of performance study details you are asking for.
§ 888.3350 Hip joint metal/polymer semi-constrained cemented prosthesis.
(a)
Identification. A hip joint metal/polymer semi-constrained cemented prosthesis is a 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 have a femoral component made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum, and an acetabular resurfacing component made of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene and is limited to those prostheses intended for use with bone cement (§ 888.3027).(b)
