The Memograph® Staple is intended for:
l ) hand and foot bone fragment and osteotomy fixation and joint arthrodesis, 2) fixation of proximal tibial metaphysis osteotomy and 3) fixation of soft tissue to bone such as anterior cruciate reconstruction.
The Memograph® Staple system consists of two and four prong staples for 1) hand and foot bone fragment and osteotomy fixation and joint arthrodesis, 2) fixation of proximal tibial metaphysis osteotomy and 3) fixation of soft tissue to bone such as in anterior crucate ligament reconstruction. The staple is fabricated from Nitinol. The staple's prongs are parallel during insertion. Application of an electrical current from the Warmsystem to the staple causes its prong to deflect inward. This inward deflection causes staple retention and compression across the osteotomy or arthrodesis site.
This document K993714 details the 510(k) summary for the Memograph® Staple System. However, it does not contain the information required to populate the acceptance criteria and study details as requested. This document is a regulatory submission for premarket notification, focusing on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices, rather than presenting a performance study with acceptance criteria.
Therefore, I cannot provide:
- A table of acceptance criteria and reported device performance.
- Sample size used for the test set or data provenance.
- Number and qualifications of experts for ground truth.
- Adjudication method.
- MRMC comparative effectiveness study results or effect size.
- Standalone algorithm performance.
- Type of ground truth used.
- Sample size for the training set.
- How ground truth for the training set was established.
The provided text focuses on the device description, intended use, and substantial equivalence to legally marketed predicate devices, which is typical for a 510(k) submission. It does not include information about specific performance studies with detailed acceptance criteria, test sets, or ground truth establishment.
§ 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)
