The Arthrex Synergy UHD4 System is intended to be used as an endoscopic video camera in a variety of endoscopic surgical procedures, including but not limited to: orthopedic, laparoscopic, urologic, sinuscopic, and plastic surgical procedures. The device is also intended to be used as an accessory for microscopic surgery.
The Arthrex SynergyUHD4 System consists of a camera head with light source and a Camera Control Unit (CCU). The system is used in conjunction with an endoscope to allow for visualization onto a monitor during minimally invasive surgical procedures.
The provided document is a 510(k) premarket notification for a medical device called the "Arthrex Synergy UHD4 System," which is an endoscopic video camera system. This type of submission is for demonstrating substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device, not for proving that the device meets specific performance acceptance criteria through the kind of studies often seen for AI/ML devices.
Therefore, the document does not contain the information requested regarding acceptance criteria and studies proving the device meets those criteria, as typically understood for an AI/ML device performance evaluation. Specifically:
- No acceptance criteria table or reported device performance for an AI/ML component is present.
- No sample sizes for test sets or data provenance are mentioned.
- No number of experts or their qualifications for ground truth establishment are detailed.
- No adjudication method is described.
- No multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study is discussed.
- No standalone (algorithm-only) performance is provided.
- No type of ground truth (e.g., pathology, outcomes data) is specified for an AI/ML model.
- No sample size for a training set is mentioned.
- No method for establishing ground truth for a training set is provided.
Instead, the document focuses on demonstrating that the Arthrex Synergy UHD4 System is "substantially equivalent" to an existing predicate device (K071756: Endohub-1.0 Endoscopic Video Camera with Video Capture). The evidence for this substantial equivalence is described as:
- Bench testing: "Bench testing was performed to demonstrate equivalence to the predicate regarding environmental conditions, power requirements, image capture, and video output and resolution."
- Sterilization and electrical safety validations: These were "performed on the system components and comply with ISO 17665-1 and IEC 60601-1:2012 3rd Edition."
The core objective of this 510(k) submission is to show that "Any differences between the Arthrex SynergyUHD4 System and the predicates are considered minor and do not raise questions concerning safety and effectiveness. There are no significant differences between the new device and predicate that raise issues of safety or effectiveness."
In summary, the provided text describes a 510(k) submission for an endoscopic video camera system, not an AI/ML enabled device, and thus does not contain the specific performance study information requested.

Dear Mr. Rogers:
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, listing 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. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting of medical devicerelated adverse events) (21 CFR 803); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
