The device is intended to be implanted for use in the fixation of long bone fractures and for long bone reconstructions.
The device is an assortment of various sizes and configurations of stainless steel bone plates.
I am sorry, but the provided text only contains a 510(k) summary and FDA clearance letter for an "Orthopedic Plate System." This document primarily focuses on establishing "substantial equivalence" to previously marketed devices rather than detailing specific performance acceptance criteria or a dedicated study proving performance against such criteria.
Therefore, I cannot extract the requested information about acceptance criteria, study details, sample sizes, ground truth establishment, or MRMC studies from the given text.
The document states:
- The device is an assortment of various sizes and configurations of stainless steel bone plates.
- The device is intended to be implanted for use in the fixation of long bone fractures and for long bone reconstructions.
- The Orthopedic Plate System is a standardly used device.
- The FDA determined the device is "substantially equivalent" to predicate devices, implying it meets the same general safety and effectiveness standards as those products.
To provide the requested information, a different type of document, such as a clinical study report, a scientific publication, or a more detailed technical file, would be needed.

Dear Mr. Ferguson:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) notification of intent to market the device referenced above and we have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions The general controls provisions of the Act of the Act. include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (Premarket Approval), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major requlations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Requlations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 895. A substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the current Good Manufacturing Practice requirement, as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (QS) for Medical Devices: General requlation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic (QS) inspections, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply with the GMP requlation may result in regulatory action. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register. Please note: this response to your premarket notification submission does not affect any obligation you might have under sections 531 through 542 of the Act for devices under the Electronic Product Radiation Control provisions, or other Federal laws or requlations.

§ 888.3030 Single/multiple component metallic bone fixation appliances and accessories.
(a)
Identification. Single/multiple component metallic bone fixation appliances and accessories are devices intended to be implanted consisting of one or more metallic components and their metallic fasteners. The devices contain a plate, a nail/plate combination, or a blade/plate combination that are made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum, stainless steel, and titanium, that are intended to be held in position with fasteners, such as screws and nails, or bolts, nuts, and washers. These devices are used for fixation of fractures of the proximal or distal end of long bones, such as intracapsular, intertrochanteric, intercervical, supracondylar, or condylar fractures of the femur; for fusion of a joint; or for surgical procedures that involve cutting a bone. The devices may be implanted or attached through the skin so that a pulling force (traction) may be applied to the skeletal system.(b)
Classification. Class II.
