The WMT Implantable K-Wires are indicated for use in fixation of bone fractures, for bone reconstructions, and as guide pins for insertion of other implants. Additionally, WMT Implantable K-Wires are indicated for the fixation of osteotomies and reconstruction of the lesser toes following correction procedures for hammertoe, claw toe, mallet toe, and metatarsophalangeal joint instability.
The WMT Implantable K-Wires are offered in surgical grade stainless steel. A range of diameters are offered from the manufacturer and planning should be conducted prior to implantation to determine the best fit.
The provided document, K132895, describes the WMT Implantable K-Wires. However, it is a 510(k) summary for a medical device seeking substantial equivalence to a predicate device. This type of regulatory submission typically focuses on demonstrating that a new device is as safe and effective as an already legally marketed device, primarily through technological comparison and potentially non-clinical studies.
Crucially, this document does not contain information related to a study designed to prove the device meets specific acceptance criteria based on algorithm performance, human reader studies, or ground truth establishment, as would be common for AI/ML-based medical devices or diagnostic tools.
The document states:
- "Through mechanical analysis the new wires do not represent a new worst-case." (Non-Clinical Evidence)
- "A literature summary was provided to support the modified indications." (Non-Clinical Evidence)
- "N/A" for "Substantial Equivalence - Clinical Evidence".
Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information for acceptance criteria and study details because the provided text does not describe such a study for this device.
Here's a breakdown of why this information is not available in the provided text in relation to your specific questions:
- A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance: Not available. The document discusses mechanical analysis and literature summary, but no specific performance metrics or acceptance criteria are listed.
- Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance: Not available. No "test set" in the context of an algorithm's performance is mentioned.
- Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts: Not applicable/available. Ground truth establishment for a diagnostic algorithm is not part of this 510(k) summary.
- Adjudication method for the test set: Not applicable/available.
- If a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done: Not available. Clinical studies, especially MRMC studies, for comparative effectiveness are not described and are marked "N/A" for clinical evidence.
- If a standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done: Not applicable. This device is a physical K-wire, not an algorithm.
- The type of ground truth used: Not applicable.
- The sample size for the training set: Not applicable. This device is not an AI/ML algorithm requiring a training set.
- How the ground truth for the training set was established: Not applicable.
In summary, the provided document relates to a traditional medical device (K-wires) seeking 510(k) clearance based on substantial equivalence, not an AI/ML-based device that would typically involve the types of studies and criteria you are asking about.

Dear Ms. Fitch:
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. Iisting 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.

§ 888.3040 Smooth or threaded metallic bone fixation fastener.
(a)
Identification. A smooth or threaded metallic bone fixation fastener is a device intended to be implanted that consists of a stiff wire segment or rod made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum and stainless steel, and that may be smooth on the outside, fully or partially threaded, straight or U-shaped; and may be either blunt pointed, sharp pointed, or have a formed, slotted head on the end. It may be used for fixation of bone fractures, for bone reconstructions, as a guide pin for insertion of other implants, or it may be implanted through the skin so that a pulling force (traction) may be applied to the skeletal system.(b)
Classification. Class II.
