Intended Use

The Synthes Midfacial System is a plate and screw system, manufactured from commercially pure (CP) titanium, and is intended for use in selective trauma of the midface and craniofacial skeleton: craniofacial surgery; reconstructive procedures; and selective orthognathic surgery of the maxilla and chin.

Device Description

The Synthes Midfacial System is a plate and screw system, manufactured from commercially pure (CP) titanium, and is intended for use in selective trauma of the midface and craniofacial skeleton: craniofacial surgery; reconstructive procedures; and selective orthognathic surgery of the maxilla and chin. The plates are available in a variety of configurations to accommodate various fracture sites, and attach to bone via 1.3 mm or 1.7 mm self-tapping screws, with a low plate/screw profile.

AI/ML Overview

This document is a 510(k) summary for a medical device (Synthes Midfacial System) and does not describe a study involving an AI/ML device. Therefore, the requested information regarding acceptance criteria, study design, expert involvement, and ground truth for an AI/ML device cannot be extracted from the provided text.

The document primarily focuses on:

  • Device Description: The Synthes Midfacial System, a plate and screw system for midfacial and craniofacial surgery.
  • Predicate Device Comparison: It compares the Synthes system to the Howmedica Luhr Pan Fixation System.
  • Basis for Equivalence: It states that equivalence is "Based on mechanical test results," implying physical/mechanical testing, not a clinical study involving AI.

Therefore, I cannot populate the table or answer the specific questions related to AI/ML device performance, human reader studies, or ground truth establishment.

§ 872.4760 Bone plate.

(a)
Identification. A bone plate is a metal device intended to stabilize fractured bone structures in the oral cavity. The bone segments are attached to the plate with screws to prevent movement of the segments.(b)
Classification. Class II.
