The Freedom Wrist Arthroplasty System is indicated for intractable pain resulting from traumatic arthritis, osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and trauma-induced osteoarthritis of the radial/carpal joint and is intended to replace functionality of the joint due to deformity or elements stated above. The Freedom Wrist Arthroplasty System is intended for cemented use.
The Freedom Wrist Arthroplasty System consists of components to replace the articulation of the distal radius and proximal row of carpal bones of the wrist joint. The components are intented together as a system, not individually as hemi-arthroplasty components. The radial component is made of Cobalt Chrome Molybenum Alloy (CrCoMo) and has a concave articulating surface and is fixed by means of a stem which is inserted into the radial intramedullary canal. The carpal implant is an assembly consisting of a titanium carpal plate, which is fixed into the carpal bones with a cemented central peg and locking caps. A convex Ultra-High-Molecular-Weight Polyethylene (UHMWPE) bearing is locked onto the carpal plate to articulate with the radial component.
Unfortunately, the provided text does not contain information about an AI/ML-based medical device study. The document is an FDA 510(k) clearance letter for the "Freedom Wrist Arthroplasty System," which is a physical medical device (a wrist implant).
The text primarily focuses on:
- Device Description: The components and materials of the wrist implant.
- Intended Use/Indications for Use: What the implant is designed to treat.
- Predicate Device Comparison: How it compares to previously cleared devices.
- Non-Clinical Testing: Specifically, tests related to MRI safety and compatibility (Magnetically Induced Displacement Force, Torque, RF-Induced Heating, Image Artifacts).
Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information regarding acceptance criteria, study details, sample sizes, expert involvement, ground truth establishment, or specific performance metrics for an AI/ML device, as this information is not present in the provided document.
§ 888.3800 Wrist joint metal/polymer semi-constrained cemented prosthesis.
(a)
Identification. A wrist joint metal/polymer semi-constrained cemented prosthesis is a device intended to be implanted to replace a wrist 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 either a one-part radial component made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum, with an ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene bearing surface, or a two-part radial component made of alloys and an ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene ball that is mounted on the radial component with a trunnion bearing. The metallic portion of the two-part radial component is inserted into the radius. These devices have a metacarpal component(s) made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum. This generic type of device is limited to those prostheses intended for use with bone cement (§ 888.3027).(b)
