This document is a 510(k) premarket notification from Howmedica Osteonics Corp., dba Stryker Orthopaedics, for their Global Modular Replacement System, Modular Replacement System, and Modular Rotating Hinge Knee. The submission, K222056, aims to modify the labeling of these devices to include MR Conditional language and to add an additional contraindication to the GMRS Press Fit Stems with Hydroxyapatite.
Here's an analysis of the provided text regarding acceptance criteria and supporting studies:
-
Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance:
The document does not explicitly present a table of acceptance criteria with corresponding device performance metrics for clinical outcomes. Instead, it focuses on non-clinical testing for MR compatibility and states that these tests were performed according to recognized ASTM standards. The "acceptance criteria" can be inferred as meeting the requirements of these standards.
Acceptance Criteria (Inferred) Reported Device Performance Compliance with ASTM F2052-15 for Magnetically Induced Displacement Force Testing performed as outlined in FDA guidance. Compliance with ASTM F2213-17 for Magnetically Induced Torque Testing performed as outlined in FDA guidance. Compliance with ASTM F2119-07 (2013) for Image Artifacts Testing performed as outlined in FDA guidance. Compliance with ASTM F2182-19e1 for Heating by RF Fields (including additional analyses for tissue heating) Testing performed as outlined in FDA guidance. -
Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective):
The document describes non-clinical testing performed on the devices themselves, not on human subjects. Therefore, the concept of a "test set" in the context of clinical data (e.g., patient cases) does not apply here. The "samples" would be the physical devices or components tested. The document does not specify the number of devices tested for each non-clinical evaluation (e.g., how many different GMRS components were subjected to MR compatibility testing). The data provenance is non-clinical laboratory testing, not human-derived data, and thus country of origin or retrospective/prospective status is not applicable in this context.
-
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. Ground truth, in the sense of clinical diagnoses or outcomes, is not established for this type of non-clinical device testing. The "ground truth" for MR compatibility is determined by the physical properties of the materials and design, evaluated against established engineering standards like ASTM.
-
Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set:
This information is not applicable. Adjudication methods are used in clinical studies or expert reviews to resolve discrepancies in diagnoses or assessments from multiple reviewers. For non-clinical engineering tests, the outcome is determined by measurements against predefined tolerances within the ASTM standards.
-
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:
No MRMC comparative effectiveness study was done. The submission is for a medical device (orthopedic implants), not an AI-powered diagnostic or assistive tool.
-
If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done:
Not applicable. The device is a physical orthopedic implant, not an algorithm.
-
The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.):
The "ground truth" for the non-clinical testing is based on established engineering principles and the requirements defined in the ASTM standards (e.g., limits for magnetically induced displacement, torque, image artifact levels, and localized heating).
-
The sample size for the training set:
Not applicable. This is not an AI/machine learning device; therefore, there is no "training set."
-
How the ground truth for the training set was established:
Not applicable. There is no training set for this type of device.

Summary of Technological Characteristics:
There have been no changes to the technological characteristics of the subject Global Modular Replacement System devices as a result of the labeling to add MR Conditional language. The subject GMRS components have the same design and are manufactured from the same materials as the corresponding proximal femoral bodies and distal stems of the predicate devices.
Non-Clinical Testing:
The Global Modular Replacement System has been evaluated for use in a Magnetic Resonance Environment through non-clinical testing as outlined in the FDA guidance document "Testing and Labeling Medical Devices for Safety in the Magnetic Resonance (MR) Environment -Guidance for Industry and FDA Staff'', dated May 20, 2021. This testing was conducted to characterize the compatibility of Stryker Orthopaedics GMRS passive implants in the MR environment. FDA guidance "Assessment of Radiofrequency-Induced Heating in the Magnetic Resonance (MR) Environment for Multi-Configuration Passive Medical Devices -Guidance for Industry and FDA Staff", dated March 22, 2016, was also consulted for the heating evaluations performed. Testing was performed according to the standards listed below:
- Magnetically Induced Displacement Force Test Performed per ASTM F2052-15, Standard Test Method for Measurement of Magnetically Induced Displacement Force on Medical Devices in the Magnetic Resonance Environment
- Magnetically Induced Torque Test Performed per ASTM F2213-17, Standard Test Method for Measurement of Magnetically Induced Torque on Medical Devices in the Magnetic Resonance Environment
- Image Artifact Test Performed per ASTM F2119-07 (2013), Standard Test Method for Evaluation of MR Image Artifacts from Passive Implants
- Heating by RF Fields Test Performed per ASTM F2182-19e1, Standard Test Method for Measurement of Radio Frequency Induced Heating on or Near Passive Implants During Magnetic Resonance Imaging
Additional analyses have been performed to address heating in the tissue of interest as indicated in the May 2021 guidance document.
{12}------------------------------------------------
The labeling of the GMRS system has been modified to include the MR conditional symbol and to provide the parameters under which a patient who has the device can be safely scanned. The labeling of the GMRS Press Fit Stems with Hydroxyapatite has also been revised to add an additional contraindication.
Clinical Testing:
Clinical testing was not required as a basis for substantial equivalence.
Conclusion:
Based upon a comparison of the intended use, materials, summary of technological characteristics, and preclinical evaluation, the subject Global Modular Replacement System components are considered substantially equivalent to the predicate devices identified in this premarket notification.
§ 888.3350 Hip joint metal/polymer semi-constrained cemented prosthesis.
(a)
Identification. A hip joint metal/polymer semi-constrained cemented prosthesis is a device intended to be implanted to replace a hip joint. The device limits translation and rotation in one or more planes via the geometry of its articulating surfaces. It has no linkage across-the-joint. This generic type of device includes prostheses that have a femoral component made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum, and an acetabular resurfacing component made of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene and is limited to those prostheses intended for use with bone cement (§ 888.3027).(b)
Classification. Class II.
