Device Description

DRG Sherlock™ MF Bone Screw, Cocrmo Self-Tapping, Ti Alloy

AI/ML Overview

I apologize, but the provided text from the FDA 510(k) summary for the "DRG Sherlock™ MF Bone Screw" does not contain the detailed information necessary to answer your request regarding acceptance criteria, study details, and performance metrics as if it were an AI/ML device.

The document is a clearance letter for a medical device (bone screw), and it focuses on:

  • Substantial Equivalence: It states that the device is substantially equivalent to legally marketed predicate devices. This is a regulatory pathway for traditional medical devices, not for AI/ML performance evaluation.
  • Regulatory Class: It identifies the device's regulatory class (Class II) and product code (DZL).
  • Intended Use: It specifies the indications for use for the bone screws (craniofacial and mandibular trauma and reconstruction).
  • General Controls: It mentions compliance with general controls provisions like annual registration, good manufacturing practice (GMP), etc.

There is no mention of an algorithm or AI/ML performance, nor any data from a study that would include acceptance criteria, sample sizes, expert qualifications, or ground truth establishment relevant to AI/ML device evaluation.

Therefore, I cannot populate the table or answer the specific questions about AI/ML device performance and study details based on the information provided in the input text.

Dear Dr. Deslauriers:

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 legally marketed predicate 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 of the Act. The general controls provisions 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. ਚੋ substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the Current Good Manufacturing Practice requirements, 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 requlation may result in regulatory action. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Reqister. Please note: this response to your premarket notification submission does not affect any obligation you might have under sections 531
