    AI/ML Overview

    Here's a breakdown of the acceptance criteria and study information based on the provided document:

    This document is a 510(k) premarket notification summary for a medical device called the "A.L.P.S. Small Fragment Plating System." As such, it primarily focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices rather than providing detailed acceptance criteria and the results of a specific study designed to "prove" the device meets those criteria in the way a clinical trial for an AI diagnostic might.

    Key takeaway: The document confirms that for this type of device (metallic bone fixation system), clinical data and conclusions were not needed. The substantial equivalence is based on technological comparison and non-clinical tests related to MRI compatibility. Therefore, many of the questions related to acceptance criteria for algorithmic performance, sample sizes for test/training sets, expert adjudication, or MRMC studies are not applicable in this context.

    Here's the information that can be extracted or inferred from the provided text, with clarifications where questions are not applicable:


    1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance

    For this device, the "acceptance criteria" are related to established standards for materials and non-clinical performance, primarily demonstrating MR compatibility and structural integrity through existing test methods. The document doesn't provide specific quantitative acceptance criteria or performance metrics in a table format for this specific device's novel performance. Instead, it states that the device's technological characteristics are similar to predicates and that non-clinical tests were conducted.

    When used as a distal or total humeral replacement, the Comprehensive Segmental Revision System is also intended for:
    Treatment of acute or chronic fractures with humeral epicondyle (elbow) involvement, which are unmanageable using other treatment methods.

    Biomet Comprehensive Segmental Revision System is indicated for use in a reverse application in patients whose shoulder joint has a grossly deficient rotator cuff with severe arthropathy and/or previously failed shoulder joint replacement with a grossly deficient rotator cuff. The patient must be anatomically suited to receive the implants and a functional deltoid muscle is necessary. For the US and Canada only: reverse application is limited to proximal humeral replacement.

    The Comprehensive Segmental Revision System is intended for use with or without bone cement in the proximal shoulder.

    The Comprehensive Segmental Revision System is intended for use with bone cement in distal humeral applications.

    Tissue Attachment Augments provide the option for tissue stabilization and attachment Augments are not available in all markets.

    Device Description

    The Comprehensive Segmental Revision System (SRS) is a multi-piece orthopedic implant designed to replace the humerus up to and including the humeral side of the shoulder and elbow joints. The device is designed specifically for use in cases where there is extensive bone loss requiring extramedullary replacement of bone. The Tissue Attachment Augments provide the option for tissue stabilization and attachment.

    AI/ML Overview

    The provided text describes a medical device, the "Comprehensive Segmental Revision System (SRS)," and its 510(k) premarket notification to the FDA. This document is a regulatory submission for a medical device and thus does not contain information about acceptance criteria or a study proving that a device meets those criteria in the context of an AI-powered diagnostic or predictive system.

    The text does mention:

    • Non-Clinical Tests/Justification: Coating Characterization, Fatigue Strength Report Flanges, Fatigue Strength Analysis Humeral Stems, Shot Peen Testing Summary, and MRI. These are engineering and material science tests relevant to the physical implant's safety and performance, not a study of an AI system's diagnostic accuracy.
    • Clinical Tests: "None provided." This explicitly states that no clinical studies were performed for this specific submission to expand the indications of the device, as substantial equivalence was demonstrated through other means (comparison to predicates, engineering tests).

    Therefore, based on the provided text, I cannot answer questions 1 through 9 as they relate to the performance evaluation of an AI device. The document is about a mechanical orthopedic implant, not an AI system.

    Taperloc® Complete Hip Stems are an implant device, a porous coated femoral stem intended for uncemented biological fixation. The Taperloc® Complete is a series of hip stems with a bi-planar wedge design, titanium substrate, and proximally circumferential titanium porous plasma sprayed design.

    AI/ML Overview

    The document provided is a 510(k) premarket notification for the Taperloc® Complete Hip Stems. It describes the device, its intended use, and provides a summary of performance data to demonstrate substantial equivalence to a predicate device.

    Here's an analysis of the acceptance criteria and study information based on the provided text, focusing on what is stated and explicitly noting what is not present:

    1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance

    The document does not explicitly present acceptance criteria in a formal table with pass/fail thresholds for the tests conducted. Instead, it states that "All testing passed and met the specifications or comparison testing (as applicable) to the predicate devices." This implies that the acceptance criteria were either established by the referenced ASTM standards or through direct comparison to the performance of the predicate device.

    Test PerformedStandard / Comparison BasisReported Device Performance
    Porous Plasma Spray Coating Testing:
    TensileASTM 1147Passed and met specifications or comparison to predicate
    FatigueASTM F1160Passed and met specifications or comparison to predicate
    PorosityASTM F1854Passed and met specifications or comparison to predicate
    Pore SizeASTM F1854Passed and met specifications or comparison to predicate
    ThicknessASTM F1854Passed and met specifications or comparison to predicate
    Tabor AbrasionASTM F1978Passed and met specifications or comparison to predicate
    Shear FatigueASTM F1160Passed and met specifications or comparison to predicate
    Shear StaticASTM F1044Passed and met specifications or comparison to predicate
    RoughnessComparison to predicatePassed and met specifications or comparison to predicate
    One-Step Forging Distal Pot Up/Down Fatigue Testing:
    Rotating Beam FatigueASTM STP 731Passed and met specifications and comparison to predicate device

    2. Sample sizes used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective)

    • Sample Size for Test Set: The document mentions "samples" for the porous plasma spray coating testing and "samples" for the one-step forging distal pot up/down fatigue testing. However, specific numerical sample sizes are not provided for any of these non-clinical tests.
    • Data Provenance: The document states these are "Non-Clinical Tests" performed to support the 510(k) submission. It does not specify the country of origin where the testing was conducted. It is inherently prospective in the sense that the tests were performed specifically for this regulatory submission to evaluate the cumulative changes to the device.

    3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts (e.g. radiologist with 10 years of experience)

    This is a medical device, specifically an orthopedic implant (hip stem), and the performance data is entirely non-clinical (mechanical and material testing). Therefore, there were no human experts involved in establishing ground truth in the traditional sense of clinical or diagnostic studies. The "ground truth" for these engineering tests would be established by the testing protocols and the objective measurements themselves, adhering to the specified ASTM standards.

    4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set

    Not applicable. As stated above, these are non-clinical, objective engineering tests, not clinical evaluations requiring expert adjudication.

    5. If a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance

    Not applicable. This document describes a medical device (hip implant), not an AI/software as a medical device (SaMD) that would involve human readers or AI assistance. No MRMC study was performed.

    6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done

    Not applicable. This document describes a physical medical device, not an algorithm or AI.

    7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc)

    For the non-clinical tests, the "ground truth" is defined by the objective measurements obtained through adherence to the specified ASTM standards and direct comparison to the predicate device's performance. There is no expert consensus, pathology, or outcomes data used as ground truth for these non-clinical mechanical tests.

    8. The sample size for the training set

    Not applicable. There is no "training set" as this is a physical medical device and the studies refer to non-clinical material and manufacturing process changes, not machine learning or AI.

    9. How the ground truth for the training set was established

    Not applicable. As above, there is no training set mentioned or implied.

    Made from same wrought Co-Cr-Mo alloy conforming to ASTM F-1537.Stated in the "Technological Characteristics" section.

    2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance

    The document does not specify a numerical sample size for the test set used in the non-clinical testing. It only states that "Verification testing was conducted."

    The data provenance is not explicitly mentioned (e.g., country of origin). Since this is a 510(k) submission to the FDA, it can be inferred that the testing and data generation occurred within a context relevant to US regulatory standards, likely in the US or by a US-based or affiliated entity. The testing was non-clinical, involving mechanical tests, not human subjects.

    3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications of Those Experts

    This document describes non-clinical, mechanical testing. Therefore, there were no human experts establishing a "ground truth" in the clinical sense (e.g., diagnosis, outcome assessment). The "ground truth" for this engineering verification would be the objective measurements of insertion and extraction forces against predefined engineering specifications or benchmarks for the predicate device. The experts involved would be biomechanical engineers or test technicians, but their number and specific qualifications are not detailed.

    4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

    Not applicable. This was non-clinical testing against engineering specifications, not a study involving human interpretation or subjective assessments that would require adjudication.

    5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study Was Done, If So, What Was the Effect Size of How Much Human Readers Improve with AI vs. Without AI Assistance

    Not applicable. This is a 510(k) submission for a mechanical medical device (femoral knee components) and does not involve AI, human readers, or image interpretation.

    6. If a Standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) Was Done

    Not applicable. This device is a mechanical implant, not an algorithm or AI system.

    7. The Type of Ground Truth Used

    The ground truth used for the non-clinical testing was based on objective engineering measurements of insertion and extraction forces, compared against predefined specifications or performance of the predicate device.

    8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

    Not applicable. There is no mention of a "training set" as this is not a machine learning or AI-based device. The term "training set" is generally used in the context of supervised learning, where an algorithm learns from labeled data.

    9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established

    Not applicable, as there is no "training set" for this mechanical device.

    Device Description

    This device is a screw anchor used to provide a means for attaching soft tissue to bone during healing. The device consists of a screw portion and a head portion. The screw portion engages the bone while the head portion provides a means to drive the anchor in and a means to attach the suture to the anchor. These anchors are comprised of 85% L-Lactide/15% Glycolide and are available in 3.5 mm and 5.5 mm diameter sizes.

    AI/ML Overview

    The provided text is a 510(k) summary for the Biomet LactoScrew™ Screw Anchor, which is a medical device. This type of submission focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device rather than proving clinical effectiveness through a new study with acceptance criteria and performance metrics.

    Therefore, the document explicitly states:

    • Non-Clinical Testing: "Mechanical testing was performed to establish substantial equivalence to the predicate devices."
    • Clinical Testing: "Clinical testing was not used to establish substantial equivalence to predicate devices."

    Due to this, the questions regarding acceptance criteria, device performance, sample sizes, expert ground truth, adjudication methods, MRMC studies, standalone performance, training sets, and ground truth establishment for a study proving acceptance criteria cannot be answered directly from the provided text.

    The 510(k) process for this device relies on demonstrating that its technological characteristics (material and design) are similar to existing, legally marketed predicate devices, and that any differences do not raise new questions of safety or effectiveness. The "acceptance criteria" here would relate to the successful demonstration of substantial equivalence, primarily through non-clinical mechanical testing, rather than performance against pre-defined clinical metrics.

    Intended Use

    Calcigen™ PSI bone graft substitute is indicated for bony voids or gaps of the skeletal system (i.e., the extremities, spine and pelvis) that are not intrinsic to the stability of the bony structure. These defects may be surgically created osseous defects or osseous defects created from disease or traumatic injury to the bone. Calcigen™ PSI bone graft substitute can be combined with autogeneous bone marrow aspirate or autogenous blood. Calcigen™ PSI resorbs and is replaced with bone during the healing process.

    Device Description

    Calcigen™ PSI bone graft substitute is a resorbable osteoconductive scaffold composed of 60% hydroxyapatite (HA) and 40% tri-calcium phosphate (TCP). The device is available as granules, cubes, or cylinders. Calcigen™ PSI is porous with multidirectional interconnected pores resembling that of cancellous bone.

    Similar indications for use (bony voids/gaps in skeletal system, combination with autogenous bone marrow aspirate or blood)Indicated for bony voids or gaps of the skeletal system (i.e., the extremities, spine and pelvis) that are not intrinsic to the bony structure. Can be combined with autogeneous bone marrow aspirate or autogenous blood.
    Safe and effective as legally marketed predicate devices"The technological characteristics (materials, design sizes, and indications) are similar to or identical to that of the predicate devices." "Non-clinical laboratory testing and literature review determined the device will function as indicated."

    2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance

    The document explicitly states: "Clinical Testing: None provided as a basis for substantial equivalence." This indicates that no clinical studies (and therefore no test set) were conducted with the Calcigen™ PSI device itself for this 510(k) submission. Substantial equivalence was claimed based on comparison to legally marketed predicate devices and non-clinical testing/literature review.

    3. Number of Experts Used to Establish Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications

    Since no clinical testing was performed for the Calcigen™ PSI device in this submission, there was no test set requiring expert ground truth establishment.

    4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

    Not applicable, as no clinical testing and test set were used.

    5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study

    No MRMC study was performed or referenced for this 510(k) submission. The document states "Clinical Testing: None provided as a basis for substantial equivalence."

    6. Standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) Study

    Not applicable. This device is a bone graft substitute, not an algorithm, and its performance is not assessed in a standalone algorithmic manner.

    7. Type of Ground Truth Used

    For the Calcigen™ PSI device itself, no specific "ground truth" was established via clinical studies for this 510(k). Instead, the substantial equivalence relied on:

    • Comparison of technological characteristics (materials, design, indications) to legally marketed predicate devices.
    • Non-clinical laboratory testing and literature review, which would implicitly draw on established scientific understanding and historical data regarding bone graft substitutes.

    8. Sample Size for the Training Set

    Not applicable. This document pertains to a medical device (bone graft substitute), not an AI/algorithm-based device that would require a 'training set'.

    9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established

    Not applicable, as there is no training set for this type of medical device.
