AI/ML Overview

The provided text is a 510(k) Premarket Notification for a medical device called "The Bone Tie." This type of document is for regulatory approval and does not contain information about acceptance criteria or a study proving that the device meets acceptance criteria.

The 510(k) submission process is primarily about demonstrating "substantial equivalence" to a predicate device already on the market, rather than proving the device meets specific performance acceptance criteria through a clinical study. It focuses on the device's design, materials, and intended use being similar to an already approved device.

Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information based on the input text. The document describes:

  1. Device Name: THE BONE TIE
  2. Intended Use/Indications For Use: Fixation of bone fragments for bone fractures, bone reconstructions, and bone traction.
  3. Classification: Class II, Product Code HTY, as a "Smooth or threaded metallic bone fixation fastener."
  4. Regulatory Approval: The FDA has determined the device is substantially equivalent to legally marketed predicate devices.

To answer your request, I would need a different type of document, such as a clinical study report or a detailed design verification and validation document, which would explicitly describe acceptance criteria and present study results against those criteria.

Dear Mr. Fitzer:

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 regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 895. ਉ 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 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 regulations.
