AI/ML Overview

The provided text is a 510(k) summary for the Auxein Nailing System, which is a medical device. This type of document is for premarket notification of a device to the FDA to demonstrate substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device. It focuses on comparing the new device to existing ones based on design, materials, and intended use, and generally does not contain information about clinical studies with human participants, AI algorithms, or detailed performance metrics like sensitivity/specificity derived from such studies.

Therefore, many of the requested items, which are typical for studies involving AI algorithms or comparative effectiveness of diagnostic devices, are not present in this document.

Here's a breakdown of what can and cannot be answered based on the provided text:

1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance

The document does not specify quantitative acceptance criteria for device performance beyond compliance with material and performance standards. The "performance" is demonstrated through adherence to these standards and comparison to a predicate device.

Acceptance Criteria (Standards Adherence)Reported Device Performance (Compliance)
Material Standards:
ASTM F 136 (Wrought Titanium Alloy)Complied with standard (material verified)
ASTM F 899-12 (Wrought Stainless Steels for surgical instruments)Complied with standard (material verified)
Performance Standards:
ASTM F 543-17Device's performance demonstrated against this standard
ASTM F1264 (Screw Cut-Out Test - specifically for Ajax Blade)Device's performance demonstrated against this standard
ASTM F384Device's performance demonstrated against this standard
Custom Fatigue TestingDevice's performance demonstrated against this testing
Sterilization Standards:
ASTM F1980 (Accelerated Aging of Sterile Barrier Systems)Sterilization method validated using this standard
ISO 11737-2:2019 (Tests of sterility)Sterilization method validated using this standard

2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective)

This information is not applicable and not provided. The testing described is non-clinical (material and mechanical), not involving human patient data.

3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts (e.g. radiologist with 10 years of experience)

This information is not applicable and not provided. "Ground truth" in the context of clinical expert consensus is not relevant to the non-clinical testing performed here.

4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set

This information is not applicable and not provided.

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

This is not an AI device. No MRMC study was performed or is relevant to this submission.

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

This is not an AI device. No standalone algorithm performance was assessed.

7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc)

The "ground truth" for the non-clinical testing is compliance with established engineering and material standards (e.g., ASTM F136 for material composition, ASTM F543 for mechanical properties).

8. The sample size for the training set

This information is not applicable and not provided. There is no AI training set for this device.

9. How the ground truth for the training set was established

This information is not applicable and not provided. There is no AI training set for this device.

Dear Rahul Luthra:

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. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database located at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. 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

From the data available we can justify that the Auxein Nailing System is as safe, and as effective and performs as same indications for use as that of already marketed predicate devices identified in A.3. of 510(k) summary. Hence our devices can be considered safe and effective for their intended use.

Non Clinical Testing

Gap assessment was performed between the previously cleared 510k and the new submission. Since this submission includes sterile version of products as new additions and no other technical changes are being included. No additional risk for mechanical testing and biocompatibility testing was identified.

We have performed the Mechanical Testing as per ASTM F384 and Screw Cut-Out test for the Ajax Blade.

The sterilization method was validated using the below standards:

  • ASTM F1980-Standard Guide for Accelerated Aging of Sterile Barrier Systems for ● Medical Devices.
  • ISO 11737-2:2019-Sterilization of health care products-Microbiological methods-Part . 2: Tests of sterility performed in the definition, validation and maintenance of a sterilization process.

Conclusion

Bases upon the non-clinical testing, the Auxein Nailing System has been demonstrated to be substantially equivalent to the predicate device and effective for its intended use.

§ 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.
