The provided document is a 510(k) premarket notification for the Extremity Medical Suture Anchor, a medical device used for the fixation of soft tissue to bone. The document does not describe the acceptance criteria or the study that proves the device meets the acceptance criteria in the manner requested. Instead, it focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device.
Here's an analysis based on the information provided in the document, highlighting why the requested information about AI/algorithm performance and ground truth is not applicable or present:
The device in question, the "Extremity Medical Suture Anchor," is a physical implantable device, not an AI or algorithmic medical device. Therefore, many of the requested categories related to AI performance, ground truth, training sets, and expert adjudication are not relevant to this type of medical device submission.
However, I can extract information related to the physical device's testing:
Device Acceptance Criteria and Performance (as applicable for a physical medical device):
| Acceptance Criteria (Implied) | Reported Device Performance (Implied from substantial equivalence) |
|---|---|
| Equivalent Indications for Use | The modified Suture Anchor and predicate devices are equivalent in terms of indications for use. |
| Equivalent Design | The modified Suture Anchor and predicate devices are equivalent in terms of design. |
| Equivalent Material Mechanical Properties | The modified Suture Anchor and predicate devices are equivalent in terms of material mechanical properties. |
| Satisfactory Pull-out Strength | Bench testing, including pull-out strength, was performed and compared to the predicate device. (The report implies satisfactory performance by concluding substantial equivalence, but specific numerical criteria or results are not provided.) |
Explanation Regarding AI/Algorithm-Specific Questions:
-
Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g., country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective):
- Not Applicable. This is a physical medical device. The "test set" in this context refers to bench testing of the physical implant, not a data set for an algorithm.
-
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):
- Not Applicable. There is no "ground truth" to establish for an AI algorithm. Bench testing for pull-out strength would involve engineering and materials science experts and validated testing methodologies, but not clinical "ground truth" in the AI sense.
-
Adjudication method (e.g., 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set:
- Not Applicable. Again, this is for a physical device, not an AI algorithm.
-
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 device is not an AI diagnostic tool that human readers would interact with.
-
If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the loop performance) was done:
- Not Applicable. This is a physical implantable device.
-
The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc):
- Not Applicable. The "ground truth" for a physical device's performance relies on validated engineering tests (e.g., ASTM standards for mechanical properties) and comparison to predicate devices, not clinical or pathological ground truth in the context of diagnostic algorithms.
-
The sample size for the training set:
- Not Applicable. This is a physical device, no training data for an algorithm.
-
How the ground truth for the training set was established:
- Not Applicable. This is a physical device, no training data or ground truth for an algorithm.
Summary of what the document does state regarding testing:
- Study Type: Non-clinical bench testing was performed.
- Specific Tests: Pull-out strength testing was explicitly mentioned.
- Comparison: The results of the bench testing were compared to the predicate device (K083151 - Suture Anchor from Extremity Medical).
- Clinical Testing: "No clinical testing was performed."
- Conclusion: The submission concludes that the modified Suture Anchor is "substantially equivalent" to its predicate device based on indications for use, materials, design, and test data (including the unspecified pull-out strength results) and principles of operation. This "substantial equivalence" is the regulatory criterion met, rather than specific performance metrics against pre-defined acceptance criteria, which are not detailed in this summary.

Study Proving Acceptance Criteria:
The device's acceptance criteria were primarily met through non-clinical bench testing and clinical simulations in cadavers, demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices.
2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance
- Test Set Sample Size: The document does not explicitly state the numerical sample size for the bench testing (e.g., number of screws/washers tested for pull-out strength, torque, bending). For clinical simulations, it mentions "cadavers," implying a biological sample, but the specific number is not provided.
- Data Provenance: The data provenance is retrospective, as it involves testing performed on the device and comparator devices rather than on human patients in a prospective clinical trial. The country of origin of the data is not explicitly stated but is implied to be within the scope of the submitting company's operations, likely the USA given the FDA submission.
3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications of Those Experts
This information is not provided in the given document. The study primarily relies on objective mechanical testing and cadaveric simulations, not expert interpretation of results to establish ground truth in the way it would be for diagnostic imaging.
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set
This information is not applicable and therefore not provided. "Adjudication method" typically refers to how disagreements are resolved among multiple human reviewers when establishing a ground truth, often in the context of diagnostic studies. The studies performed here (mechanical bench testing, cadaveric simulations) do not involve such a process.
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
No, an MRMC comparative effectiveness study was not done. This type of study is relevant for AI-powered diagnostic tools where human performance is compared with and without AI assistance. This device is a surgical implant system, not a diagnostic AI.
6. If a Standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done
No, a standalone algorithm-only performance study was not done. This device is a physical implant; it does not have an "algorithm-only" mode. The device's performance is inherently linked to its physical properties and how it's used in a surgical context by a human.
7. The Type of Ground Truth Used
The "ground truth" for this device's performance was established through:
- Bench Test Standards: Mechanical properties (pull-out strength, torque, bending) were measured against established engineering standards or direct comparison to the performance of legally marketed predicate devices. The "truth" is that the new device's performance met or exceeded the predicate device's performance.
- Cadaveric Verification: The "truth" in clinical simulation was the successful verification of the surgical technique in cadavers, confirming the device's usability and appropriate mechanical behavior within a biological model.
8. The Sample Size for the Training Set
This information is not applicable and therefore not provided. The concept of a "training set" is relevant for machine learning algorithms. This device is a physical medical implant, not an AI/ML algorithm, and therefore does not have a training set.

6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done
- Standalone Performance Study: No. This is not an AI algorithm.
7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc)
- Type of Ground Truth: For the mechanical properties, the "ground truth" would be established by direct physical measurement using calibrated lab equipment for metrics like pull-out strength and torque, and by comparing these values to those of the predicate devices. For surgical technique verification, the "ground truth" would be the successful and safe application of the device in cadaveric models as assessed by trained surgeons.
8. The sample size for the training set
- Training Set Sample Size: Not applicable. This document describes a physical medical device, not an AI algorithm requiring a training set.
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established
- Ground Truth for Training Set Establishment: Not applicable, as there is no training set for a physical implant.

The EXTREMITY MEDICAL Trapezium Prosthesis
The provided text is a 510(k) summary for the EXTREMITY MEDICAL Trapezium Prosthesis. This document focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices rather than proving performance against specific acceptance criteria through a clinical study. Therefore, most of the requested information (acceptance criteria, device performance, sample sizes, expert qualifications, adjudication methods, MRMC studies, standalone performance, ground truth types, training set details) is not applicable or not present in this type of regulatory submission.
Here's a breakdown of the available information:
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance:
- Acceptance Criteria: Not explicitly stated as performance metrics. The core "acceptance criteria" for K092548 is demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices in terms of indications for use, materials, design, and principles of operation.
- Reported Device Performance: No specific performance metrics (e.g., success rates, complication rates, functional outcomes) are reported for the EXTREMITY MEDICAL Trapezium Prosthesis itself. The study's "performance" is its argument for substantial equivalence.
2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance:
- Sample Size: Not applicable. This document is a regulatory submission for substantial equivalence, not a clinical study reporting on patient outcomes with a specific test set.
- Data Provenance: Not applicable for a test set of the device itself. The data provenance for the predicate devices would be from their original studies or regulatory submissions, which are not detailed here.
3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts:
- Not applicable. There is no "test set" in the context of clinical performance evaluation described here, nor is there a ground truth established by experts for performance data of this specific device.

6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done:
- No. This is a medical implant, not an algorithm.
7. The type of ground truth used:
- The "ground truth" for this submission is the established safety and effectiveness of the predicate devices. The new device aims to demonstrate it is substantially equivalent to these already-approved devices, rather than establishing de novo safety and effectiveness through clinical trials with a primary ground truth (like pathology or outcomes data for a novel treatment).
8. The sample size for the training set:
- Not applicable. There is no "training set" as this is not an algorithm being developed.
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established:
- Not applicable. See point 8.
Summary of what the document does provide regarding the "study" for acceptance:
- Study Type: This is a predator-based 510(k) submission, not a clinical or performance study of the subject device. The "study" here refers to the process of comparing the new device against legally marketed predicate devices.

The EXTREMITY MEDICAL Suture Anchor
The provided text is a 510(k) summary for the EXTREMITY MEDICAL Suture Anchor. It primarily focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices, rather than presenting a study for meeting specific acceptance criteria derived from device performance.
Therefore, the requested information regarding acceptance criteria, device performance testing, sample sizes, expert ground truth establishment, adjudication methods, MRMC studies, standalone performance, and training set details for a study proving the device meets acceptance criteria cannot be found in the provided document.
This type of 510(k) submission generally relies on a comparison of design, materials, and intended use to existing legally marketed devices, rather than extensive clinical performance studies with specific statistical acceptance criteria. The "study" here is essentially the comparison to predicate devices, and the "acceptance criterion" is substantial equivalence.
Here's what can be extracted based on the nature of the document:
While the document doesn't present traditional "acceptance criteria" and a "study" to meet them in the context of device performance metrics (like sensitivity, specificity, accuracy for an AI device, or specific mechanical thresholds for a medical device), it does present the implicit acceptance criteria for its regulatory pathway: Substantial Equivalence to legally marketed predicate devices.
1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance:
| Acceptance Criteria (Implicit for 510(k) Pathway) | Reported Device Performance (as stated in the 510(k) summary) |
|---|---|
| Substantial Equivalence to Predicate Devices: - Same indications for use - Similar design - Similar materials - Similar principles of operation | The EXTREMITY MEDICAL Suture Anchor is substantially equivalent to its predicate devices (TwinFix Ti 2.8 Suture Anchor K972326, TwinFix PK FP Suture Anchor K073509) based on: - Same indications for use - Similar design - Similar materials - Similar principles of operation |
2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance:
- Sample Size: Not applicable. This 510(k) summary does not describe a performance study with a "test set" in the traditional sense of clinical or technical data. The "test set" here is conceptually the comparison of the new device's characteristics against the predicate devices.
- Data Provenance: Not applicable. The data is descriptive of the device itself and its comparison to existing devices, not empirical performance data from patients or laboratory tests for this specific device in this document.
3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts:
- Not applicable. Ground truth establishment by experts for a test set is not described in this 510(k) summary, as it's not a performance study.
4. Adjudication method for the test set:
- Not applicable. No test set or adjudication method is described.
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 device is a physical suture anchor, not an AI or imaging device, and therefore an MRMC study with human readers assisting AI is irrelevant.
6. If a standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done:
- Not applicable. This is a physical medical device, not an algorithm.
7. The type of ground truth used:
- Not applicable in the context of a performance study. The "ground truth" for the 510(k) substantial equivalence claim is the established legal marketing status and characteristics of the predicate devices.
8. The sample size for the training set:
- Not applicable. There is no mention of a "training set" as this is not a study involving machine learning or statistical modeling.
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established:
- Not applicable.
In summary, the provided document is a regulatory submission for substantial equivalence of a physical medical device, not a report on a performance study with quantitative acceptance criteria and a test set.
