The Foundation® Porous Hip Stem is intended for treatment of patients who are candidates for total hip arthroplasty because of degenerative joint disease including osteoarthritis and avascular necrosis; rheumatoid arthritis; correction of functional deformity; revision procedures where other treatments or devices have failed: : and treatment of nonunion, femoral neck and trochanteric fractures of the proximal femur with head involvement, which is unmanageable using other techniques. It is intended to be used in a cementless mode.
The Foundation® Porous Hip Stem is fabricated from wrought/forged Ti-6A1-4V that conforms to ASTM F136. The outside surface of the stem is porous coated with commercially pure titanium (ASTM F67 grade 2) beads.
The Foundation® Porous Hip Stem is available with and without a calcar collar and has a Morse type taper to receive modular heads.
The provided document is a 510(k) submission for a medical device (Foundation® Porous Hip Stem) to the FDA. It does not contain any information regarding acceptance criteria, device performance measures, or study details typically found in a clinical or performance evaluation for an AI/ML medical device.
The document focuses on:
- Device Description: Materials, porous coating, availability with/without calcar collar, and modular heads.
- Intended Use: Specific conditions for total hip arthroplasty (degenerative joint disease, rheumatoid arthritis, correction of deformity, revision procedures, fractures).
- Comparable Features to Predicate Devices: Geometry, material, and indications are the same.
- Test Results (mentioned briefly): "fatigue testing on the Morse type taper." This is a mechanical engineering test, not a study involving human subjects or AI performance.
- FDA Correspondence: Substantial equivalence determination, regulatory class, and general compliance information.
Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information based on the given text. The questions about acceptance criteria, study details, sample sizes, expert qualifications, adjudication methods, MRMC studies, standalone performance, ground truth establishment, and training set information are not applicable to the content of this 510(k) submission. This document pertains to a traditional orthopedic implant, not an AI-powered device.

Dear Ms. De Los Santos:
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 Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 895. ਸੈ 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 regulation (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 regulation may result in regulatory In addition, FDA may publish further announcements action. 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 regulations.

§ 888.3358 Hip joint metal/polymer/metal semi-constrained porous-coated uncemented prosthesis.
(a)
Identification. A hip joint metal/polymer/metal semi-constrained porous-coated uncemented 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 has a femoral component made of a cobalt-chromium-molybdenum (Co-Cr-Mo) alloy or a titanium-aluminum-vanadium (Ti-6Al-4V) alloy and an acetabular component composed of an ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene articulating bearing surface fixed in a metal shell made of Co-Cr-Mo or Ti-6Al-4V. The femoral stem and acetabular shell have a porous coating made of, in the case of Co-Cr-Mo substrates, beads of the same alloy, and in the case of Ti-6Al-4V substrates, fibers of commercially pure titanium or Ti-6Al-4V alloy. The porous coating has a volume porosity between 30 and 70 percent, an average pore size between 100 and 1,000 microns, interconnecting porosity, and a porous coating thickness between 500 and 1,500 microns. The generic type of device has a design to achieve biological fixation to bone without the use of bone cement.(b)
Classification. Class II.
