Intended Use

OSSIOfiber ® Compression Screws are indicated for maintenance of alignment and fixation of bone fractures, comminuted fractures, fragments, osteotomies, arthrodesis, and bone grafts, of the upper extremity, fibula, knee, ankle and foot in the presence of appropriate brace and/or immobilization.

Device Description

The OSSIOfiber® Compression Screws are cannulated bone screws made of degradable poly (Llactide-co-D, L-lactide) (PLDLA) reinforced with continuous mineral fibers. The polymer content degrades by hydrolysis into alpha-hydroxy acids that are metabolized by the body. The fibers are made of minerals that are found in natural bone. As the OSSIOfiber® implants degrade, the load transfers to the surrounding anatomy throughout the healing period of the osteotomy, fusion, or fracture. Substantial degradation takes place within approximately 18 months as shown in pre-clinical studies, thus eliminating the requirement for future hardware removal surgery.

The OSSIOfiber® Compression Screws are supplied sterile, for single patient use only. The screws are partially threaded and have a cannulated design. The additional devices included in this submission are: 14- 50 mm long, and 3.5 mm diameter.

The OSSIOfiber® Compression Screws are designed to be used with commonly available orthopedic surgical tools such as ISO 5835/ISO 9714 compatible instrumentations.

AI/ML Overview

This document describes the OSSIOfiber® Compression Screw, 3.5mm, a medical device used for bone fixation. The provided text is a 510(k) summary submitted to the FDA to gain clearance for marketing. It primarily focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to previously cleared predicate devices, rather than a study proving the device meets specific performance acceptance criteria in a clinical setting.

Therefore, the requested information elements related to clinical study design, expert evaluation, and AI performance metrics are not applicable to this document, as it outlines a pre-market notification process for a physical medical device based on non-clinical (mechanical) testing and comparison to existing devices.

Here's a breakdown of the requested information based on the provided text:

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

The acceptance criteria are implied by the comparison to predicate devices, particularly the Tyber Medical Compression Screw (K133842) for mechanical performance. The "performance" here refers to mechanical properties, not clinical outcomes.

Acceptance Criterion (Implied)Reported Device Performance (OSSIOfiber® Compression Screw, 3.5mm)
Pull-out Strength (Initial)At least equivalent to the metal predicate device (K133842)
Pull-out Strength (After in-vitro degradation)At least equivalent to the metal predicate device (K133842)
Torsional Strength (Time Zero)Supported by testing and rationale
Driving Torque (Time Zero)Supported by testing and rationale
BiocompatibilityEstablished based on primary predicate (K193660) and reference device (K203465)
In-vitro Degradation ProfileEstablished based on primary predicate (K193660) and reference device (K203465)
Material CompositionSame as primary predicate device (K193660)
Manufacturing and Sterilization MethodsSame as primary predicate device (K193660)
Principles of OperationSame as primary predicate device (K193660)
Intended Use & Indications for UseSame as primary predicate device (K193660)

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

The document does not specify a "test set" in the context of clinical data for AI, but rather references non-clinical (mechanical) testing.

  • Sample Size: Not explicitly stated for each test (e.g., number of screws tested for pull-out). It states "Pull-out testing was performed..." and "Torsional testing and rationale were also provided...".
  • Data Provenance: Non-clinical laboratory testing. No geographical or temporal provenance is mentioned, which is typical for such mechanical bench tests. This is not a human observational study.

3. Number of Experts Used to Establish Ground Truth and Qualifications

  • Not Applicable. This is a physical medical device clearance based on non-clinical mechanical testing and comparison to predicate devices, not an AI or diagnostic imaging device requiring expert ground truth for image interpretation.

4. Adjudication Method

  • Not Applicable. As above, no expert adjudication was involved.

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

  • Not Applicable. This is not an AI-assisted diagnostic device.

6. Standalone Performance (Algorithm Only Without Human-in-the-Loop Performance)

  • Not Applicable. This is a physical medical device, not an algorithm.

7. Type of Ground Truth Used

The "ground truth" for this device's performance is established by:

  • Mechanical Testing Results: Quantitative measurements of pull-out strength, torsional strength, and driving torque.
  • Comparison to Predicate Devices: Demonstrating equivalence or superiority in these mechanical properties to already cleared devices.
  • Validated Pre-clinical Studies: For biocompatibility and in-vitro degradation, referenced from the primary predicate and reference devices.

8. Sample Size for the Training Set

  • Not Applicable. There is no "training set" as this is a physical medical device, not an AI/machine learning model.

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

  • Not Applicable. As above, there is no training set.

Predicate Devices

OSSIOfiber® Compression Screw (K193660) - Primary Predicate

Tyber Medical Compression Screw (K133842)

Reference Devices

OSSIOfiber® Cannulated Trimmable Fixation Nail (K203465)

Purpose of Submission

This traditional 510(k) premarket notification is submitted to obtain clearance for an additional screw design made of the same material including lengths outside the previously cleared range of the OSSIOfiber® Compression Screw family (named OSSIOfiber® Compression Screw, 3.5mm).

Device Description

The OSSIOfiber® Compression Screws are cannulated bone screws made of degradable poly (Llactide-co-D, L-lactide) (PLDLA) reinforced with continuous mineral fibers. The polymer content degrades by hydrolysis into alpha-hydroxy acids that are metabolized by the body. The fibers are made of minerals that are found in natural bone. As the OSSIOfiber® implants degrade, the load transfers to the surrounding anatomy throughout the healing period of the osteotomy, fusion, or fracture. Substantial degradation takes place within approximately 18 months as shown in pre-clinical studies, thus eliminating the requirement for future hardware removal surgery.

The OSSIOfiber® Compression Screws are supplied sterile, for single patient use only. The screws are partially threaded and have a cannulated design. The additional devices included in this submission are: 14- 50 mm long, and 3.5 mm diameter.

{4}------------------------------------------------

K213596

The OSSIOfiber® Compression Screws are designed to be used with commonly available orthopedic surgical tools such as ISO 5835/ISO 9714 compatible instrumentations.

Indications for Use

OSSIOfiber® Compression Screws are indicated for maintenance of alignment and fixation of bone fractures, comminuted fractures, fragments, osteotomies, and bone grafts, of the upper extremity, fibula, knee, ankle and foot in the presence of appropriate brace and/or immobilization.

Summary of Technological Characteristics

The OSSIOfiber® Compression Screws, 3.5mm have the same intended use, indications for use, material composition, manufacturing and sterilization methods and principles of operation as the primary predicate device (K193660). Although there are differences with regards to shape and length as compared to the predicate devices, mechanical pull-out testing demonstrated at least equivalent performance both initially and after in vitro degradation. Any differences between OSSIOfiber® Compression Screws, 3.5mm and its predicate devices do not raise different questions of safety and effectiveness.

Non-Clinical Data

Pull-out testing was performed to verify the fixation properties of the OSSIOfiber® Compression Screw, 3.5mm, and to compare them to those of the metal predicate device (K133842). Testing was done initially and following in-vitro degradation. Torsional testing and rationale were also provided to support the torsional strength and driving torque at time zero for the OSSIOfiber® Compression Screw, 3.5mm.

In vitro degradation and biocompatibility for the implants were established based on the cleared primary predicate device (K193660) and referenced device (K203465). A rationale was provided to support the MR safe labeling of the device.

Conclusions

The OSSIOfiber® Compression Screw, 3.5mm is as safe and effective as its predicate devices. The OSSIOfiber® Compression Screws, 3.5mm have the same intended use, indications for use, material composition, manufacturing and sterilization methods and principles of operation as the primary predicate device (K193660). The minor design differences and additional lengths do not alter the intended surgical use of the device and do not affect its safety and effectiveness when used as labeled. Non-clinical pull-out testing data and torsional rationales demonstrate that the OSSIOfiber® Compression Screw, 3.5mm is at least as safe and effective as its predicates (K193642). Thus, the OSSIOfiber® Compression Screws, 3.5mm are substantially equivalent to its predicate devices.

§ 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.
