Intended Use

The SMR Anatomic Shoulder System is indicated for partial or total, primary or revision shoulder joint replacement in patients suffering from disability due to:

  • Non-inflammatory degenerative joint disease including osteoarthritis and avascular necrosis: .
  • Inflammatory degenerative joint disease such as rheumatoid arthritis: .
  • Treatment of acure fractures of the humeral head that cannot be treated with other fracture fixation . methods:
  • Revision of a failed primary implant; .
  • . " Cuff tear arthropathy (CTA Heads only).

The Large Resection Stems (not available in the US) are indicated for oncology applications.

The SMR Reverse Shoulder System is indicated for primary, fracture or revision total shoulder replacement in a grossly rotator cuff deficient joint with severe arthropathy (disabled shoulder). The patient's joint must be anatomically and structurally suited to receive the selected implants and a functional deltoid muscle is necessary to use the device.

The Modular SMR Shoulder System allows the assembly of components in various humeral and glenoid constructs. The constructs are intended for cemented use as specified in the following table.

In the Anatomic shoulder the humeral consists of the humeral stem. the humeral body, the adaptor taper and the humeral head. In the Reverse shoulder the humeral consists of the humeral stem, the reverse humeral body and the reverse liner. On the humeral side the fixation of the humeral stem determines if the construct is cemented or uncemented.

The Anatomic glenoid construct consists of an all polyethylene glenoid or a metal back assembled with a liner while the Reverse glenoid consists of the metal back, the connector and the glenosphere. On the glenoid side, the fixation of the all polyethylene glenoid or the metal-back-determines if the construct is cemented or uncemented.

Device Description

The SMR 3-Pegs Glenoids are made from standard UHMWPE ). They are intended for cemented fixation only.

The SMR 3-Pegs Glenoids are available in two sizes (Small and Standard). They are characterized by an articulating surface with a radius of curvature greater than the corresponding humeral head. This mismatch allows for translation of the head in the superior/inferior and anterior/posterior directions. The back surface of the component is spherical in geometry and has three pegs for fixation in the glenoid.

The SMR 3-Pegs Glenoids are designed to articulate with the Limacorporate SMR humeral heads indicated for use in total shoulder replacement.

AI/ML Overview

This document describes the premarket notification (510(k)) for the Limacorporate SMR 3-Pegs Glenoids, a component for shoulder joint replacement. The submission aims to demonstrate substantial equivalence to previously cleared predicate devices.

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

The device is a medical implant, and its performance is evaluated based on mechanical and material properties, rather than diagnostic accuracy as would be common for AI devices. Therefore, the "acceptance criteria" here refer to meeting established mechanical testing standards and material specifications, and "reported device performance" refers to the results of those tests confirming compliance.

Acceptance Criteria (Mechanical/Material)DescriptionReported Device Performance
ASTM F1829 ComplianceStandard Test Method for Static Evaluation of Glenoid Locking Mechanism in Shear. This standard assesses the static mechanical shear strength of the glenoid component and its ability to resist translation relative to the bone or fixation.Mechanical testing performed. Results demonstrated the device's ability to perform under expected clinical conditions. (Exact numerical results not provided in summary)
ASTM F2028 ComplianceStandard Test Methods for Dynamic Evaluation of Glenoid Loosening or Disassociation. This standard assesses the dynamic mechanical fatigue strength of the glenoid component and its resistance to loosening or disassociation under physiological loading.Mechanical testing performed. Results demonstrated the device's ability to perform under expected clinical conditions. (Exact numerical results not provided in summary)
Range of Motion SimulationEnsure the device design does not overly limit the range of motion of the shoulder joint when implanted.Range of Motion simulation performed. Results ensured that the device design does not overly limit range of motion.
Material SpecificationsMade from standard Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMWPE) or UHMWPE X-Lima.The SMR 3-Pegs Glenoids are made from UHMWPE, or UHMWPE X-Lima, the same material as other cleared SMR System cemented glenoids.
SterilizationSterilized by ethylene oxide (EtO) with a Sterility Assurance Level (SAL) of 10-6 and a shelf life of 5 years.Sterilization method (EtO), SAL, and shelf life are identical to cleared cemented glenoids of the SMR Systems.

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

This is a medical device approval based on non-clinical testing (mechanical and materials), not an AI/software device. Therefore, the concepts of "test set sample size" and "data provenance" (country of origin, retrospective/prospective) are not directly applicable in the same way they would be for an AI study.

  • Test Set Sample Size: "All mechanical testing was done on worst case components or constructs." The specific number of physical units tested is not provided in this summary.
  • Data Provenance: Not applicable as it's mechanical testing of physical components, not patient data.

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

Not applicable. Ground truth for mechanical testing is established by conforming to predefined engineering standards (ASTM standards) and manufacturing specifications, not by expert consensus on clinical cases.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

Not applicable, as this refers to expert review of clinical data, which was not performed.

5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study

Not applicable. This is not an AI device or an imaging device requiring human reader interpretation. No MRMC study was performed.

6. Standalone (Algorithm Only) Performance Study

Not applicable. This is a physical medical device. There is no algorithm, and therefore no standalone algorithm performance to evaluate.

7. Type of Ground Truth Used

The "ground truth" for this medical device submission is established through:

  • Engineering Standards: Compliance with established ASTM (American Society for Testing and Materials) standards (F1829 and F2028) for mechanical properties relevant to glenoid components.
  • Material Specifications: Adherence to specifications for UHMWPE and UHMWPE X-Lima.
  • Design Specifications: Ensuring the dimensions and design features (e.g., radius of curvature, peg design) match those of legally marketed predicate devices and achieve their intended purpose (e.g., range of motion).

8. Sample Size for the Training Set

Not applicable. There is no "training set" in the context of an AI/machine learning model for this physical medical device approval. Performance is demonstrated through direct mechanical testing and comparison to predicate device characteristics.

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

Not applicable, as there is no training set.

*NOTE :

  • . In the US, the SMR Metal Glenoid/Liner construct, used as part of the SMR Anatomic Shoulder Replacement, is intended for use with bone cement and should be used without bone screws.
  • . Outside the US, the SMR Metal Backed Glenoid/Liner construct, used as part of the SMR Anatomic Shoulder Replacement, is intended for uncemented use with the addition of screws for fixation.
  • The SMR Metal Backed Glenoid/Connector/Glenosphere construct, used as part of the SMR . Reverse Shoulder replacement, is intended for uncemented use with the addition of screws for fixation.

Predicate Devices:

  • Limacorporate SMR Cemented Glenoids included in the following cleared 510(k): .
    • SMR Cemented Shoulder System (K100858); ।
    • . SMR Uncemented Shoulder System (K101263);
    • SMR CTA Humeral Heads (K110847); -
    • SMR Revision Stems (K111212). -
  • . Global Shoulder Crosslink Glenoid (DePuy, K052472);
  • Glenoid Component for the Foundation Total Shoulder System (Encore DJO, . K960906).

Comparable Features to Predicate Device(s):

The intended use and indications for the Limacorporate SMR 3-Pegs Glenoids are similar to those of the referenced predicate devices and identical to those of the SMR cemented glenoids (K100858, K101263, K110847 - "rotator cuff tear arthropathy" and K I 1212 - "revision of a failed primary component"). As for all the referenced predicate devices where a glenoid component is used, the SMR 3-Pegs glenoids are used in total shoulder replacements and are intended for use with bone cement only.

The surface of the SMR 3-Pegs Glenoids articulating with the humeral heads and the spherical backside surface are identical to those of the already cleared SMR glenoids. As for all the referenced predicate devices, the SMR 3-Pegs glenoids have a radius of curvature greater than the radius of the articulating humeral heads. The three pegs used for the fixation by means of bone cement are very similar to those of Foundation Total Shoulder glenoid (Encore - DJO) and to the peripheral pegs of the Global Shoulder Crosslink glenoid (DePuv). The presence of grooves on the fixation peg has the same functionality (enhance cement adhesion) for SMR 3-Pegs Glenoids as for the other cemented glenoids of Limacorporate and for the Foundation Total Shoulder glenoid (Encore - DJO).

The UHMWPE used for the SMR 3-Pegs Glenoids is the same material used for the SMR System cemented glenoids (Limacorporate). The two sizes of glenoids available for the SMR 3-Pegs Glenoids have the same identical dimensions of the sizes Small and Standard of the cleared SMR cemented glenoids.

{3}------------------------------------------------

All SMR 3-Pegs Glenoids and referenced Predicate Devices are sterile, single use devices. Sterilization of the SMR 3-Pegs Glenoids performed by means of ethylene oxide (EtO), the Sterility Assurance Level (SAL of 100), the shelf life of 5 years are identical to that of the cleared cemented glenoids of the SMR Systems.

Non-Clinical Testing:

The SMR 3-Pegs Glenoid has undergone mechanical tests according to ASTM F1829 (Standard Test Method for Static Evaluation of Glenoid Locking Mechanism in Shear) and ASTM F2028 (Standard Test Methods for Dynamic Evaluation of Glenoid Loosening or Disassociation). A Range of Motion simulation has been performed to ensure the device design does not overly limit range of motion. All mechanical testing was done on worst case components or constructs. Where possible, standard test methods were used to allow comparison to testing of the predicate devices. The testing results demonstrated the device's ability to perform under expected clinical conditions.

Clinical Testing:

Clinical testing was not necessary to demonstrate substantial equivalence of the SMR 3-Pegs Glenoids to the predicate device(s).
