    AI/ML Overview

    The provided text is a 510(k) summary for the Ortho Solutions UltOS Plating System, a medical device for orthopedic fixation. It discusses the device's description, intended use, and argues for its substantial equivalence to currently marketed devices.

    However, the document states: "No nonclinical testing was used in the determination of substantial equivalence." This means that the submission does not contain any data from a study that proves the device meets specific acceptance criteria. The basis for regulatory clearance is substantial equivalence to predicate devices based on material, geometry, and indications, not on performance data from a specific study demonstrating compliance with acceptance criteria.

    Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information about acceptance criteria, reported device performance, sample sizes, expert qualifications, adjudication methods, MRMC studies, standalone performance, or ground truth establishment. The document explicitly states that no such testing was performed for this submission.

    Intended Use

    The Ortho Solutions Limited Oxford Ankle Fusion Nail (AFN) System is a tibiotalocalcaneal (TTC) solid fusion system that has been developed for the following indications:

    • Failed ankle replacement
    • Arthritis of ankle and subtalar joint
    • Correcting neuromuscular imbalance of hindfoot, where bone fusion is required
    • Revision of failed ankle and/or subtalar fusion
    • Revision of failed Tibiotalocalcaneal (TTC) fusion
    • Talar Avascular Necrosis (AVN)
    • Charcot
    • Trauma
    • Neuroarthropathy
    • Pseudoarthrosis
    • Rheumatoid arthritis
    Device Description

    The Ortho Solutions Oxford Ankle Fusion Nail (AFN) System is composed of three(3) diameter (10, 11 & 12mm) sizes by two(2) lengths (150 & 180mm) as a straight nail, cannulated, to accept a 3.9mm Guide Pin. The cannulated nail is inserted through a dorsal heel incision over a guide wire using x-ray fluoroscopy within the ankle boney anatomy and distal tibia medullary canal. The guidewire is used to achieve adequate positioning. A Revision Nail in all sizes is also offered where the angled transverse hole is removed. A low-profile head 5.0mm Cortical Transverse Bone Screw (in 26 lengths of 20 - 115mm in 2 & 5mm increments) is used for proximal and distal multiple 'cross-screw' fixation after compression of the ankle joint space. Dynamization Slots(2) are located at the Proximal End of the nail. Also offered is a Standard and Locking End Cap for closing the distal end of the nail. The Locking End Cap rests and locks against the most distal Transverse 5.0mm Cortical Screw. For completion of long bone fractures, End Caps in 3 lengths (+0, +5 & +10) and in 3 diameters (10, 11 & 12mm) are used for distal IM Nail Length Extension as necessary. As well, all End Caps seal the end of the nail to avoid ingrowth of tissues. All bone hole preparation and bone screw insertion is with the assistance of intra-operative x-ray fluoroscopy. All implant components are offered 'Sterile' for Single Use. With the Intramedullary Nail inserted into the ankle bone, an instrument 'Targeting Arm' with alignment holes is attached to the distal end of the nail. This external Targeting Arm allows proper orientation, preparation, and alignment of the proper cannula for transverse and angled drilling of bone screw holes into the nail and ankle anatomy cortical and cancellous bone. The bone hole preparation is for proper alignment to the referenced transverse and angled holes within the Intramedullary Nail for insertion of Transverse 5.0mm Cortical Bone Screws. All implant components are made from 6-4 Alloyed Titanium material to ASTM F 136 and are anodized with a Type II surface preparation. The IM Nail, End Cap and Transverse Screws may be removed when long bone fracture(s) are healed or the ankle joint space is fused. A full complement of instrumentation (external Targeting Arm Main Jig. guide wire/pins, drill guides/sleeves, cannulated tissue protector sleeves, depth gauge, reamers, reaming rod, drills, drivers, cannulated guide tube & trocar, etc.) is available with the system. A 'sterile single use' disposable pack is available encompassing a guide pin, guide rod, drills, reamer, reaming rod and exchange tube. A implant extraction/removal instrumentation set is also made available.

    AI/ML Overview

    The provided text is a 510(k) summary for the Oxford Ankle Fusion Nail (AFN) System. This document describes a medical device seeking market clearance based on substantial equivalence to previously approved devices, rather than comprehensive clinical studies proving independent acceptance criteria and performance metrics.

    Therefore, the information listed below regarding "acceptance criteria" and various study details is largely not applicable (N/A) in the context of a 510(k) submission for a device like an intramedullary nail. The FDA's 510(k) pathway focuses on demonstrating that a new device is as safe and effective as a legally marketed predicate device, not on establishing novel performance benchmarks through extensive clinical trials.

    The summary emphasizes "equivalence" and "similarity in material, geometry design/markings, and indications" to predicate systems. The "Summary of Safety and Effectiveness" simply states the device is "shown to be safe and effective for use as 'sterile' and for single-use in a surgical setting," which typically refers to non-clinical testing (e.g., biocompatibility, sterilization validation, mechanical testing) and comparison to predicate devices, not specific performance criteria from a clinical study.

    Here's an attempt to populate the requested table and sections based on the provided text, indicating "N/A" where the information is not present or not relevant to a 510(k) for this type of device:


    Acceptance Criteria and Device Performance Study Analysis

    1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

    Acceptance Criteria (Not explicitly stated in typical 510(k) for this device type)Reported Device Performance (Implied by substantial equivalence)
    Mechanical Performance: (e.g., strength, fatigue, torsional resistance) - Criteria not explicitly defined in this summary but assumed to meet standards comparable to predicate devices.Material: 6-4 Alloyed Titanium (ASTM F 136), anodized.
    Geometry: Three diameters (10, 11, 12mm), two lengths (150, 180mm), cannulated. Low-profile head 5.0mm Cortical Transverse Bone Screw.
    Functionality: Provides tibiotalocalcaneal (TTC) solid fusion. Allows for proximal and distal multiple 'cross-screw' fixation. Includes Dynamization Slots. Designed for removal after healing.
    Biocompatibility: (e.g., non-toxic, non-allergenic) - Criteria not explicitly defined in this summary but assumed to meet standards comparable to predicate devices and material specifications.All implant components made from 6-4 Alloyed Titanium material to ASTM F 136 and are anodized with a Type II surface preparation.
    Sterility: (e.g., validated sterilization methods) - Criteria not explicitly defined in this summary but assumed to meet standards.All implant components are offered 'Sterile' for Single Use. A 'sterile single use' disposable pack is available.
    Clinical Performance: (e.g., fusion rates, complication rates) - Not typically required for 510(k) of this device type; inferred through equivalence to predicate devices."The Ortho Solutions Limited Oxford Ankle Fusion Nail (AFN) System is shown to be safe and effective for use as 'sterile' and for single-use in a surgical setting." (This statement is a high-level summary, not a report of specific clinical outcomes or statistical performance metrics).
    Intended Use: Device performs as intended for specified indications.Intended Use matches predicate devices and supports various conditions requiring tibiotalocalcaneal (TTC) solid fusion (e.g., failed ankle replacement, arthritis, trauma, Charcot, etc.).

    Note: For devices cleared through the 510(k) pathway, detailed, statistically significant acceptance criteria and performance data from clinical studies are often not provided in the summary document. Instead, the focus is on demonstrating that the new device is "substantially equivalent" to existing, legally marketed predicate devices. This typically involves non-clinical (bench) testing, material characterization, and comparison of design and indications for use.

    2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance

    • Sample Size (Test Set): N/A (No clinical test set data from a study to prove acceptance criteria is described in this 510(k) summary.)
    • Data Provenance: N/A (As no clinical test set is described, data provenance for such a set is also not applicable.)

    3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts

    • N/A (No human-adjudicated test set is described. The 510(k) process for this device type typically relies on engineering and material standards, and comparison to predicate devices, rather than expert-established ground truth from patient data for performance evaluation.)

    4. Adjudication method for the test set

    • N/A (No test set requiring adjudication 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

    • N/A (This device is an intramedullary nail, not an AI-powered diagnostic or assistive device. Therefore, MRMC studies involving human readers and AI assistance are not relevant.)

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

    • N/A (This device is a physical implant, not a software algorithm.)

    7. The type of ground truth used

    • N/A (For this type of 510(k), "ground truth" in the sense of clinical outcomes or expert labels is generally not derived directly from a new clinical study. Instead, the ground truth is often established by the successful performance and safety record of the predicate devices that the new device is compared against, along with non-clinical testing verifying material properties and mechanical performance.)

    8. The sample size for the training set

    • N/A (No training set is mentioned or applicable as this is not a machine learning/AI device.)

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

    • N/A (No training set is mentioned or applicable.)

    AI/ML Overview

    This 510(k) summary for the Ortho Solutions Trauma Plates for Osteosynthesis does not contain the kind of detailed study information (acceptance criteria, sample sizes, ground truth establishment, expert qualifications, etc.) that would typically be described for a device employing AI or requiring such rigorous validation.

    Instead, this document focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to existing predicate devices based on material, geometry, design/markings, and indications for use. It's a regulatory submission for a traditional, hardware-based medical device (bone plates, screws, and washers), not a software or AI-driven diagnostic or treatment device.

    Therefore, the requested information regarding acceptance criteria and a study proving the device meets those criteria, as typically understood for AI/software-based devices, is not present in this document.

    However, I can extract the information that is implicitly part of a substantial equivalence claim for a traditional medical device:


    Implicit Acceptance Criteria and "Study" for Substantial Equivalence

    For a traditional device like the Ortho Solutions Trauma Plates, the "acceptance criteria" and "study" are interpreted through the lens of regulatory substantial equivalence. The "study" isn't a clinical trial or algorithm performance test, but rather a comparison to legally marketed predicate devices. The "acceptance criteria" are the demonstration that the new device is as safe and effective as the predicate devices.

    1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

    Acceptance Criteria (Implicit for Substantial Equivalence)Reported Device Performance (as stated in 510(k) Summary)
    Material Equivalence: Device materials meet established standards and are equivalent to predicates."All bone plates, bone screws, and washers are made of surgical grade 316LVM Stainless Steel to ASTM F138." (Page 2) "All components are manufactured of surgical grade 316LVM Stainless Steel to ASTM F138." (Page 2) "The Ortho Solutions Trauma Plates for Osteosynthesis is Similar in Material, Geometry Design/Markings, and Indications to many predicate systems currently sold in the U.S. market." (Page 3)
    Geometric/Design Equivalence: Device geometry and design are equivalent to predicates and suitable for intended use."The Ortho Solutions Trauma Plates for Osteosynthesis consists of general predicate type trauma implant components commonly found with large companies with orthopedic markets in the United States." (Page 2) Detailed descriptions of various plates, screws, and washers, their sizes, configurations (e.g., 2.7mm ACP plates, 3.5mm Reconstruction plates, 4.5mm Narrow ACP, various angled hip plates), and intended bone locations. (Page 2) "The Ortho Solutions Trauma Plates for Osteosynthesis is Similar in Material, Geometry Design/Markings, and Indications to many predicate systems currently sold in the U.S. market." (Page 3)
    Indications for Use Equivalence: Device is indicated for the same or very similar uses as predicates, without raising new questions of safety or effectiveness."The intended use of the Ortho Solutions Trauma Plates for Osteosynthesis of fixation device(s) is to draw two or more aligned bone fragments together to facilitate healing." (Page 3) Specific indications are listed for bone plates/screws (small bones in hand/foot, large and long bones) and for the Compression Hip Screw System (fracture fixation in proximal/distal femur, including various types of hip/femoral neck fractures, osteotomies, hip arthrodesis, supracondylar/distal femoral fractures). (Page 3 & 5) "The Ortho Solutions Trauma Plates for Osteosynthesis is Similar in Material, Geometry Design/Markings, and Indications to many predicate systems currently sold in the U.S. market." (Page 3) "The Ortho Solutions Trauma Plates for Osteosynthesis is substantially equivalent to predicate systems from many orthopedic companies (as listed)." (Page 3)
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    |
    

    | Safety and Effectiveness: Implied by equivalence to predicates that are already deemed safe and effective. New device is safe and effective in its 'sterile' and 'single-use' condition. | "The Ortho Solutions Trauma Plates for Osteosynthesis is shown to be safe and effective for use as 'sterile' and for single-use in a surgical setting." (Page 3) The FDA's substantial equivalence determination implies that the device is considered as safe and effective as the predicate devices for its stated indications. |
    | Sterility & Biocompatibility: Device components can be supplied sterile and are biocompatible for implantation. (Implicit, as 316LVM Stainless Steel is a well-established implant material) | "All plates, screws, and washers are offered 'sterile' to the customer." (Page 2) "All plates and screws are offered 'sterile' to the customer." (Page 2) Implicitly, surgical grade 316LVM Stainless Steel is known to be biocompatible for its stated use. |
    | Manufacturing Quality: Device is manufactured under appropriate quality systems. (Implicit, as a requirement for all medical devices cleared by FDA) | The FDA letter mentions: "good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820)." (Page 4) This is a general regulatory requirement for the firm, not a specific performance metric, but central to device safety and effectiveness. |

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

    • Sample Size: Not applicable in the context of an "algorithm only" or "human-in-the-loop" study. The "test set" here refers to the comparison of the device's specifications against predicate devices. The "sample" is the detailed technical specifications and intended use of the Ortho Solutions device components compared to the listed predicate devices.
    • Data Provenance: Not applicable. This is a comparison of technical specifications and regulatory clearances, not clinical data or images.

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

    • Number of Experts: Not applicable. Establishing "ground truth" with experts, typical for diagnostic software, is not relevant here. The ground truth for substantial equivalence is the established safety and effectiveness of the predicate devices as determined by regulatory bodies and clinical consensus over time.
    • Qualifications of Experts: N/A.

    4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

    • Adjudication Method: Not applicable. There is no human adjudication of algorithm output in this context. The "adjudication" is the FDA's regulatory review process, determining if the comparison to predicate devices is sufficient for substantial equivalence.

    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

    • MRMC Study: No, this type of study is entirely irrelevant for a bone fixation hardware device. There are no "human readers" or "AI assistance" involved in the device's function.

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

    • Standalone Study: No, this device does not involve any algorithms. It is a physical implant.

    7. The type of ground truth used

    • Ground Truth: The "ground truth" implicitly used for this type of submission is the established safety and effectiveness profile of the legally marketed predicate devices against which the Ortho Solutions device is compared. This is based on years of clinical use, regulatory review, and scientific understanding of biomechanics and biomaterials.

    8. The sample size for the training set

    • Sample Size: Not applicable. There is no "training set" as this device does not use machine learning or AI.

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

    • Ground Truth Establishment: Not applicable. Refer to point 8.

    In summary, the provided document is a 510(k) summary for a traditional medical device (bone plates and screws), demonstrating substantial equivalence to existing products. The framework for "acceptance criteria" and "study" in your request is designed for AI/software devices and therefore does not directly apply to this submission. The "study" here is the comparative analysis presented in the 510(k) demonstrating that the new device is "similar in material, geometry design/markings, and indications" to cleared predicate devices.

    AI/ML Overview

    This document is a 510(k) Summary of Safety and Effectiveness for the Ortho Solutions Trauma Implants for Osteosynthesis. It is a premarket notification for a medical device and therefore describes the device's indications for use and substantial equivalence to previously cleared devices, rather than presenting a study of its performance against specific acceptance criteria.

    Here's an analysis based on the provided text:

    1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance:

    The document does not report specific acceptance criteria or performance metrics (e.g., accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, or mechanical properties with thresholds) for the device. Instead, it relies on demonstrating substantial equivalence to existing legally marketed predicate devices.

    Acceptance Criteria (Not Explicitly Stated for this device)Reported Device Performance (Demonstrated by Substantial Equivalence)
    No explicit performance-based acceptance criteria are provided in this document. For devices like bone fixation implants, typical performance criteria would involve:
    • Mechanical properties: (e.g., tensile strength, torsional strength, fatigue life, bending strength, pull-out strength) meeting established ASTM or ISO standards for similar devices.
    • Biocompatibility: (e.g., non-toxic, non-allergenic) as per ISO 10993 standards.
    • Sterility assurance level (SAL).
    • Clinical efficacy/safety in terms of successful fracture healing, low complication rates, etc. | The device is substantially equivalent to a long list of legally marketed predicate devices in terms of:
    • Material: Surgical grade 316LVM Stainless Steel to ASTM F138 and/or 6-4 Alloyed Titanium to ASTM F136.
    • Geometry Design/Markings: Similar to predicate devices.
    • Indications for Use: The stated indications for individual components (K-Wires, Steinman Pins, Guide Pins, Fixation Pins, Rush Pins, Cerclage Wire, Cannulated Bone Screws & Washers) are consistent with the predicate devices.
    • Safety and Effectiveness: Shown to be safe and effective for use as 'sterile' and for single-use in a surgical setting, based on equivalence. |

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

    • This document is a 510(k) premarket notification for a Class II medical device (smooth or threaded metallic bone fixation fastener). For such devices, a clinical study with a specific test set and sample size is typically not required if substantial equivalence can be demonstrated through comparison to legally marketed predicate devices.
    • Therefore, no specific test set or data provenance (country of origin, retrospective/prospective) related to a clinical performance study is described in this document. The "study" implicitly involved a detailed comparison of the new device's design, materials, and indications for use against the established characteristics of numerous predicate devices.

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

    • Since there was no explicit clinical or performance study with a "test set" in the traditional sense, no experts were used to establish ground truth for such a set.
    • The "ground truth" for substantial equivalence is based on regulatory standards and the characteristics of predicate devices already deemed safe and effective by the FDA. The review process itself involves FDA experts (e.g., within the Division of Surgical, Orthopedic and Restorative Devices).

    4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set:

    • No adjudication method is mentioned as there was no test set requiring human interpretation or consensus. The review process is regulatory, comparing the new device to predicates based on objective criteria (materials, design, intended use).

    5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study Was Done:

    • No, an MRMC comparative effectiveness study was not done. This type of study is typical for diagnostic imaging devices where human readers interpret images, often with and without AI assistance. The Ortho Solutions product is a sterile, single-use surgical implant, not a diagnostic tool where reader performance is assessed.

    6. If a Standalone (Algorithm Only Without Human-in-the-Loop Performance) Was Done:

    • No, a standalone performance study was not done. This concept applies to AI algorithms that operate independently. The Ortho Solutions product is a physical implant, not an algorithm. Its "performance" is inherent in its physical properties and how it functions in the body when used by a surgeon.

    7. The Type of Ground Truth Used:

    • The "ground truth" in this context is the established safety and effectiveness of the predicate devices. The applicant demonstrates that their device shares the same fundamental scientific technology, materials, design, and intended use as these predicates, implying it will be equally safe and effective.
    • For the manufacturing aspects, ground truth would also involve adherence to established material specifications (e.g., ASTM F138, ASTM F136) and Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP).

    8. The Sample Size for the Training Set:

    • Not applicable. This device is a physical implant, not an AI model or algorithm that requires a "training set" of data.

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

    • Not applicable. As a physical implant, there is no training set or associated ground truth in the AI/machine learning sense.

    Intended Use

    Ortho Solutions sterile drill bits are intended to bore a hole into bone for insertion of a screw, wire, cable, plate, pin, bolt, etc.

    Device Description

    All Ortho Solutions Sterile Single-Use Drills Bits are manufactured from common Stainless Steel materials that are either cold-worked or heat treated for hardness cutting durability and for corrosion resistance. Ortho Solutions sterile drill bits are available in various sizes and lengths, have a fluted design, and are either in a solid or cannulated form and may be calibrated. The Ortho Solutions drill bits have various end coupling mechanisms. Ortho Solutions drill bits will be provided to the user 'sterile'. Gamma Radiation will be used to sterilize the device.

    AI/ML Overview

    The provided 510(k) summary for Ortho Solutions Sterile Drill Bits (K102743) states that the device is substantially equivalent to the Synthes K962913 Sterile Drill Bits. This means that the device's acceptance criteria and the study proving it meets these criteria are based on demonstrating equivalence, rather than a standalone clinical study with detailed performance metrics.

    Here's the information extracted from the provided text, recognizing the nature of a 510(k) SE submission:

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

    Acceptance Criteria CategoryAcceptance Criteria (Implied by SE)Reported Device Performance (Implied by SE)
    MaterialIdentical to predicate deviceIdentical to Synthes Sterile Drill Bits
    Geometry Design/MarkingsIdentical to predicate deviceIdentical to Synthes Sterile Drill Bits
    Indications for UseIdentical to predicate deviceIdentical to Synthes Sterile Drill Bits (Intended use: "to bore a hole into bone for insertion of a screw, wire, cable, plate, pin, bolt, etc.")
    Sterilization MethodGamma RadiationGamma Radiation used

    2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance:

    • Sample size: Not explicitly stated as a separate test set. The claim of "identical" in material, geometry, and indications implies that the design and manufacturing specifications of the Ortho Solutions drill bits conform to the established characteristics of the predicate device (Synthes K962913). Demonstrating this identity typically involves detailed engineering comparisons and possibly verification testing on a sample of the manufactured devices, rather than a clinical "test set" in the traditional sense of a clinical trial.
    • Data provenance: Not applicable in the context of a comparative effectiveness study or clinical trial. The data provenance would relate to the manufacturing specifications and design verification documentation of the Ortho Solutions device, showing its equivalence to the predicate. The predicate device's country of origin is not specified, but the manufacturing firm for the new device is based in the United Kingdom.

    3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts:

    • Not applicable. Ground truth as established by experts for a test set (e.g., in an AI or diagnostic device context) is not part of this type of 510(k) submission. The "truth" here is the equivalence to the predicate device, which is a regulatory and technical assessment.

    4. Adjudication method for the test set:

    • Not applicable. There was no clinical "test set" requiring adjudication in the context of a clinical trial. The adjudication is regulatory, based on the FDA's assessment of the provided documentation for substantial equivalence.

    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, a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was not done. This type of study is relevant for diagnostic devices (especially imaging) involving human interpretation with or without AI assistance, which is not applicable to a surgical drill bit.

    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 is also relevant for AI/software-as-a-medical-device (SaMD) products, which does not apply to a physical surgical instrument.

    7. The type of ground truth used:

    • The "ground truth" in this context is the identity and performance characteristics of the predicate device (Synthes Sterile Drill Bits, K962913). The Ortho Solutions device's performance is demonstrated to be equivalent to this established standard. This is based on a technical and regulatory comparison, rather than pathology, expert consensus on clinical cases, or outcomes data from the new device itself.

    8. The sample size for the training set:

    • Not applicable. There is no concept of a "training set" for physical surgical instruments in this type of 510(k) submission. Training sets are relevant for machine learning algorithms.

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

    • Not applicable, as there is no training set.
