Intended Use

Hardware: The Materialise Shoulder Guide and Models are intended to be used as a surgical instrument to assist in the intraoperative positioning of glenoid components used with total and reverse shoulder arthroplasty by referencing anatomic landmarks of the shoulder that are identifiable on preoperative CT-imaging scans. The Materialise Shoulder Guide and Models are single use only. The Materialise Shoulder Guide and Models can be used in conjunction with the following total and reverse shoulder implants systems and their respective compatible components: DePuy Synthes', Enovis' (DJO), Smith+Nephew's, Lima's, Stryker's.

Software: SurgiCase Shoulder Planner is intended to be used as a pre-surgical planner for simulation of surgical interventions for shoulder orthopedic surgery. The software is used to assist in the positioning of shoulder components. SurgiCase Shoulder Planner allows the surgeon to visualize, measure, reconstruct, annotate and edit pre-surgical plan data. The software leads to the generation of a surgery report along with a pre-surgical plan data file which can be used as input data to design the Materialise Shoulder Guide and Models.

Device Description

Materialise Shoulder System™ is a patient-specific medical device that is designed to be used to assist the surgeon in the placement of shoulder components during total anatomic and reverse shoulder replacement surgery. This can be done by generating a pre-surgical shoulder plan and, if requested by the surgeon, by manufacturing a patient-specific glenoid guide and models to transfer the glenoid plan to surgery. The device is a system composed of the following: a software component, branded as SurgiCase Shoulder Planner. This software is a planning tool used to generate a pre-surgical plan for a specific patient. Materialise Shoulder Guide and Models, which are a patient-specific guide and models that are based on a pre-surgical plan. This pre-surgical plan is generated using the software component. Patient-specific glenoid guide and models will be manufactured if the surgeon requests patient-specific guides to transfer the glenoid plan to surgery. The Materialise Shoulder Guide is designed and manufactured to fit the anatomy of a specific patient. A bone model of the scapula is delivered with the Materialise Shoulder Guide. A graft model can be delivered with the Materialise Shoulder Guide. The graft model visualizes the graft-space between implant and bone, based on the pre-operative planning of the surgeon. The graft model serves as a visual reference for the surgeon in the OR.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text describes the regulatory clearance for the Materialise Shoulder System™ and mentions performance data, but it does not contain a detailed study proving the device meets specific acceptance criteria in the format requested.

The document is a 510(k) summary, which focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device rather than presenting a comprehensive standalone study with detailed effectiveness metrics.

Here's an analysis of the information that can be extracted, and what is missing based on your request:

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance:

  • Acceptance Criteria: Not explicitly stated in a quantitative manner for the performance of the AI component (SurgiCase Shoulder Planner) or the hardware (Materialise Shoulder Guide and Models) beyond ensuring it performs "as intended" and maintains accuracy.
  • Reported Device Performance: The document states that "Testing verified that the accuracy and performance of the system is adequate to perform as intended." However, no specific performance metrics (e.g., accuracy, precision, sensitivity, specificity, or error margins) are provided for either the software for planning or the hardware for guiding.

2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance:

  • Test Set Sample Size: Not specified for the software component (SurgiCase Shoulder Planner).
  • Data Provenance: Not specified for any software testing.
  • For Hardware: It refers to "simulated surgeries using rapid prototyped bone models and previous cadaver testing." No specific number of models or cadavers is provided, nor is the country of origin or whether it was retrospective or prospective.

3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts:

  • Number of Experts: Not specified.
  • Qualifications of Experts: Not specified.

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

  • Not specified.

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:

  • No MRMC study is mentioned. The document focuses on the planning and guidance aspect for surgeons, but not on a comparative study of human readers (surgeons) with and without AI assistance for diagnosis or planning accuracy.

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

  • A standalone performance evaluation of the software's planning functionality is implied through the statement "Software verification and validation were performed, and documentation was provided following the 'Guidance for the Content of Premarket Submissions for Software Contained in Medical Devices.'" However, no specific metrics or study details are provided. The software is described as a "planning tool used to generate a pre-surgical plan" and for "assisting the surgeon in positioning shoulder components," suggesting a human-in-the-loop workflow.

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

  • Ground Truth Type: Not explicitly stated for the software. For the hardware, the use of "rapid prototyped bone models and previous cadaver testing" implies a physical ground truth for accuracy validation.

8. The sample size for the training set:

  • The document does not mention a training set sample size, which is typical for AI/ML models. This suggests the software functionality described (planning, visualization, measurement) might not be based on deep learning/machine learning that requires explicit training data in the same way as, for example, an image classification algorithm. It seems to be a rules-based or physics-based planning software.

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

  • As no training set is mentioned, the method for establishing its ground truth is also not provided.

In summary:

The provided text from the FDA 510(k) summary states that non-clinical performance testing indicates the device is as safe and effective as its predicate. It mentions software verification and validation and previous hardware testing (biocompatibility, sterility, cleaning, debris, dimensional stability, packaging, simulated surgeries, cadaver testing). However, it lacks the specific quantitative acceptance criteria and detailed study results (such as sample sizes, expert qualifications, clear performance metrics, ground truth establishment for software, and formal comparative effectiveness study results) that are typically expected when describing a study proving specific acceptance criteria in detail. This information is usually found in separate, more detailed technical documentation submitted to the FDA, not in the public 510(k) summary.
