2. Sample Size for Test Set and Data Provenance:

  • Test Set Sample Size: Not explicitly stated for either the mechanical testing (compression, side-by-side) or the cadaveric validation.
  • Data Provenance: The cadaveric validation implies human anatomical specimens were used, likely from a cadaver lab setting. The country of origin is not specified but commonly such studies are conducted in the country of device development or major academic centers. The study appears to be prospective in nature, as new tests were conducted for the device.

3. Number of Experts and Qualifications:

  • For Cadaveric Validation: Not explicitly stated how many experts were involved or their specific qualifications. However, such studies typically involve orthopedic surgeons specializing in shoulder surgery to assess the surgical workflow and outcomes.
  • For Software Verification & Validation: The summary mentions "trained Arthrex technicians" generating surgical treatment options in the OrthoVis desktop software. These technicians would likely be experts in the use of the software and anatomical planning.

4. Adjudication Method:

  • The document does not specify an adjudication method for the testing or validation activities.

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

  • No mention of an MRMC comparative effectiveness study being performed to assess the effect size of human readers improving with AI vs. without AI assistance. The device is for pre-operative planning and intra-operative guidance, not a diagnostic AI tool for image interpretation by multiple readers.

6. Standalone (Algorithm Only) Performance:

  • The software components (OrthoVis Preoperative Plan, VIP Web Portal) represent the "algorithm only" parts of the system for planning and displaying information. The summary states that "Software verification and validation testing... were conducted". This implies that the standalone performance of the software was assessed for its intended functions, such as accurate planning and display, as part of the V&V process. However, specific metrics for standalone performance are not provided.

7. Type of Ground Truth Used:

  • For Mechanical Testing (Compression and Side-by-Side): The ground truth would be precise engineering measurements and pre-defined specifications for depth control and material properties.
  • For Cadaveric Validation: The ground truth would be the actual anatomical landmarks and the accuracy of implant placement achieved within the cadaveric model, often verified through post-procedure imaging or dissection.
  • For Software Verification & Validation: The ground truth for software would be the expected output based on validated algorithms and reference data, ensuring internal consistency and correctness of computations and displays.

8. Sample Size for Training Set:

  • The document does not provide information about a "training set" in the context of machine learning or AI models. This device appears to be rule-based or algorithm-based software for planning, rather than a machine learning model that requires a distinct training set. The "trained Arthrex technicians" mentioned are users of the software, not data for a training set.

9. How Ground Truth for Training Set Was Established:

  • As the document does not indicate the use of a machine learning training set, this question is not applicable.
