    AI/ML Overview

    The provided FDA 510(k) clearance letter pertains to "Preat Abutments," which are endosseous dental implant abutments. This type of device is mechanically tested and does not typically involve the kinds of studies (e.g., AI integration, human reader studies, clinical outcomes) that would necessitate the extensive "acceptance criteria" and "study proving device meets acceptance criteria" information you've requested.

    The document describes non-clinical performance data to demonstrate substantial equivalence, focusing on engineering aspects and material compatibility, rather than clinical efficacy or diagnostic accuracy.

    Therefore, many of the specific points you've asked for (e.g., sample size for test set, data provenance, number of experts for ground truth, adjudication method, MRMC study, effect size, standalone performance, ground truth for training set, training set sample size) are not applicable to this type of device and are not present in the provided FDA submission information.

    Here's a breakdown based on the available information:

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

    The document does not explicitly state acceptance criteria in a quantitative table format as one might find for a diagnostic AI device. Instead, it details the engineering and material performance tests conducted to demonstrate substantial equivalence to predicate devices. The "reported device performance" is described qualitatively by stating that the tests were performed and that the device is substantially equivalent.

    CategoryAcceptance Criteria (Inferred/Stated)Reported Device Performance (as per document)
    Mechanical Performance- Static compression testing according to ISO 14801.- "Worst-case constructs were subjected to static compression and compression fatigue testing."
    • This implies the device met the standards of ISO 14801, demonstrating mechanical integrity comparable to predicates. (Specific pass/fail values or results are not provided in this summary, but would have been in the full submission). |
      | | - Compression fatigue testing according to ISO 14801. | |
      | Software Validation | - Restrictions to prevent design outside stated design parameters. | - "Software verification included testing of restrictions that prevent design of components outside of the stated design parameters." |
      | | - Abutment design library limitations are locked and unmodifiable. | - "The abutment design library was validated to demonstrate that the established design limitations and specifications are locked and cannot be modified by the user." |
      | | - CAM restriction zones avoid damage/modification of connection geometry and are locked. | - "Validation testing of the CAM restriction zones was conducted, including verification to show avoidance of damage or modifications of the connection geometry, and locking of restriction zones from user editing in the CAM software." |
      | Biocompatibility | - Conforms to ISO 10993-1 and ISO 10993-5. | - "Biocompatibility has been demonstrated through the sponsor's K220823 device testing according to ISO 10993-1, and ISO 10993-5." (Leveraged from predicate). |
      | Sterilization | - Conforms to ISO 17665-1 and ISO 14937. | - "Sterilization validation was demonstrated through and leveraged from the sponsor's K220823 device testing according to ISO 17665-1 and ISO 14937." (Leveraged from predicate). |
      | MR Safety | - Assessment of magnetically induced displacement force and torque. | - "Non-clinical worst-case MRI review was performed... using scientific rationale and published literature... Rationale addressed parameters per the FDA guidance 'Testing and Labeling Medical Devices for Safety in the Magnetic Resonance (MR) Environment,' including magnetically induced displacement force and torque." (Indicating an assessment was made to show safety, though specific results are not detailed). |
      | Material Composition | - Ti-6Al-4V ELI alloy conforming to ASTM F136. | - "All abutments and screws are manufactured from Ti-6Al-4V ELI alloy conforming to ASTM F136." |
      | Design Parameters (for CAD/CAM customizations) | - Minimum wall thickness: 0.5 mm to 0.9 mm (varies).
    • Minimum post height single-unit: 4.0 mm.
    • Maximum Angle: 30° (0° for some Astra Tech models).
    • Minimum gingival height: 0.5 mm.
    • Maximum gingival height: 1.5 mm to 4.5 mm (varies). | - The device is designed to these parameters, and software validation ensures these are maintained. |

    2. Sample size 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 "worst-case constructs" for mechanical testing, but does not specify a numerical sample size. For software, it refers to "testing of restrictions" and "validation testing," without numerical samples. Biocompatibility and sterilization data are leveraged from previous submissions (K220823).
    • Data Provenance: Not specified in terms of country of origin. The data is non-clinical/bench testing.

    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)

    • Not applicable. This device is an implant abutment, not a diagnostic device requiring expert interpretation of medical images or data to establish ground truth. The "ground truth" here is adherence to engineering standards and material properties.

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

    • Not applicable. As above, this is not a diagnostic study 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 is not a diagnostic device involving AI and human readers.

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

    • Not applicable. This device is a dental implant component, not an algorithm. The software mentioned is for design and manufacturing control, not for standalone diagnostic performance.

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

    • The "ground truth" for this device's performance is adherence to recognized international standards (e.g., ISO 14801 for mechanical testing, ISO 10993 for biocompatibility, ISO 17665-1 and ISO 14937 for sterilization), material specifications (e.g., ASTM F136 for Ti-6Al-4V ELI alloy), and internal design parameters and software validation criteria.

    8. The sample size for the training set

    • Not applicable. This is not a machine learning/AI device requiring a training set.

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

    • Not applicable.

    AI/ML Overview

    The provided document describes the Preat Abutments and their substantial equivalence to predicate devices, based on non-clinical performance data. It does not contain information about studies involving human readers, ground truth establishment for a test or training set, or specific details on sample sizes for a test set in the context of AI/algorithm performance.

    Here's the information that can be extracted relevant to acceptance criteria and device performance based on the provided text:

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

    The document describes non-clinical performance data used to demonstrate substantial equivalence, focusing on mechanical testing and material properties. The acceptance criteria are implicitly met by comparing the subject device to predicate and reference devices, and by conforming to relevant ISO standards where applicable.

    Acceptance Criteria (Implicit)Reported Device Performance
    Mechanical Strength & Durability:
    - Static Compression (ISO 14801)Worst-case constructs for each compatible OEM implant line (except Astra Tech OsseoSpeed EV) were subjected to static compression testing according to ISO 14801. (Performance data is implied to be acceptable as part of demonstrating substantial equivalence).
    - Compression Fatigue (ISO 14801)Worst-case constructs for each compatible OEM implant line (except Astra Tech OsseoSpeed EV) were subjected to compression fatigue testing according to ISO 14801. (Performance data is implied to be acceptable as part of demonstrating substantial equivalence).

    Sterilization Efficacy:Demonstrated through and leveraged from predicate device testing according to ISO 17665-1 and ISO 14937. (Implies the Preat Abutments, and the recommended end-user sterilization method, meet these standards).
    Magnetic Resonance (MR) Safety:Non-clinical worst-case MRI review performed based on scientific rationale and published literature (e.g., Woods et al., 2019) and FDA guidance "Testing and Labeling Medical Devices for Safety in the Magnetic Resonance (MR) Environment." Rationale addressed parameters including magnetically induced displacement force and torque. (Implies the device is deemed safe for the MR environment based on this review).
    Material Conformance:Abutments and screws manufactured from Ti-6Al-4V ELI alloy conforming to ASTM F136. Zirconia superstructures manufactured from Zirconia conforming to ISO 13356. (Implies materials meet specified standards).
    Design Parameters for CAD/CAM Components (e.g., Superstructure, Blank):For Titanium Base abutment zirconia superstructure: Minimum wall thickness - 0.5 mm; Minimum post height for single-unit restorations – 4.0 mm; Maximum gingival height – 5.0 mm; and All zirconia superstructures are for straight abutments only.
    For CAD/CAM Titanium Blank custom abutment: Minimum wall thickness – 0.5 mm to 0.9 mm (varies); Minimum post height for single-unit restoration – 4.0 mm; Maximum Angle - 30°* (Astra Tech® OsseoSpeed™ Plus-compatible limited to 0° max. correction); Minimum gingival height - 0.5 mm; Maximum gingival height – 2.0 mm to 4.5 mm (varies).
    (Implies that these design parameters are met as part of manufactured components).
    Compatibility with Implant Systems:Demonstrated through reverse engineering of OEM implant bodies, OEM abutments, and OEM abutment screws, confirmed with mechanical testing. (Implied that the device is compatible with the listed OEM implant systems and their interfaces).
    "Substantially Equivalent" (Overall):The subject device is substantially equivalent to the predicate device (K183518) in indications, intended use, design principles, materials (Ti-6Al-4V alloy), and mode of operation. Differences are related to compatible implant systems and additional abutment designs, supported by reference devices and mitigated by mechanical performance testing.

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

    The document does not detail specific sample sizes for the mechanical testing ("worst-case constructs"). The data provenance is not explicitly stated in terms of country of origin, nor is it described as retrospective or prospective in the context of test sets. The studies are non-clinical (laboratory testing).

    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 information is not applicable. The studies described are non-clinical performance and material conformance tests, not diagnostic studies or those requiring expert interpretation of results to establish ground truth in the way medical imaging algorithms might.

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

    This information is not applicable. Adjudication methods typically apply to human interpretation of data, often in clinical studies or when establishing ground truth for AI algorithms, which is not the nature of the studies 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:

    This information is not applicable. An MRMC comparative effectiveness study is used for diagnostic AI devices involving human readers. This document describes non-clinical performance testing for dental abutments, which is a physical device, not an AI algorithm.

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

    This information is not applicable. The device is a physical dental abutment, not an algorithm.

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

    The concept of "ground truth" as typically used in the context of evaluating diagnostic algorithms (e.g., expert consensus, pathology) is not applicable here. For the non-clinical tests, the "ground truth" or reference for performance is the compliance with specified ISO and ASTM standards and the performance of the predicate/reference devices through comparative testing. For example:

    • Mechanical Testing: The "ground truth" would be the passing criteria defined by ISO 14801.
    • Material Conformance: The "ground truth" would be the specifications in ASTM F136 and ISO 13356.
    • Biocompatibility & Sterilization: The "ground truth" would be the specifications in ISO 10993-1, ISO 10993-5, ISO 17665-1, and ISO 14937.

    8. The sample size for the training set:

    This information is not applicable. There is no AI algorithm being described, and therefore no training set.

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

    This information is not applicable for the same reason as above.

    AI/ML Overview

    The provided document is a 510(k) Premarket Notification for dental implant abutments. It focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to previously cleared devices rather than providing detailed performance data from a clinical or standalone study. Therefore, most of the requested information regarding acceptance criteria for an AI/device performance study, sample sizes for test/training sets, expert qualifications, and ground truth establishment is not available in this document.

    The document details the technical and material characteristics of the Preat Abutments and compares them to predicate devices to argue for their equivalence. It includes non-clinical performance data related to mechanical testing, sterilization, and biocompatibility, but not data related to an AI's diagnostic performance or human reader improvement with AI assistance.

    Here's an attempt to answer the questions based on the provided text, indicating when the information is not present:


    Analysis of Device Performance and Acceptance Criteria (Based on Substantial Equivalence)

    This 510(k) submission for Preat Abutments relies on demonstrating substantial equivalence to existing legally marketed predicate devices. The "acceptance criteria" here are implicitly related to meeting the performance characteristics and safety profiles of these predicates, rather than specific statistical thresholds for a new diagnostic algorithm's accuracy or efficacy. The "study" proving acceptance is primarily the non-clinical testing performed and the comparison to predicate devices.

    1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

    Acceptance Criteria (Implicit for Substantial Equivalence)Reported Device Performance (Method/Finding)
    Sterilization Efficacy
    (Device can be effectively sterilized by end-user)Demonstrated: Sterilization validation performed according to ISO 17665-1 and ISO 14937. (Same method as predicate K170588)
    Biocompatibility
    (Device materials are safe for human contact)Demonstrated: Confirmatory biocompatibility testing performed according to ISO 10993-12 (and ANSI / AAMI / ISO 10993-5, though 10993-12 refers to sample preparation and reference materials, and 10993-5 refers to in vitro cytotoxicity, suggesting this was the specific test performed).
    Mechanical Strength/Fatigue Resistance
    (Device can withstand forces in intended use)Demonstrated: Mechanical performance testing performed according to ISO 14801 (static compression and compression fatigue testing). Worst-case constructs for each compatible OEM implant line were tested. For Astra Tech OsseoSpeed™ and BioHorizons Tapered Internal (3.0 mm implant body/platform), a fatigue limit of 133 N was established, supported by reference device K100993. Other implant lines demonstrated sufficient strength for intended use.
    Compatible Implant System Fit/Function
    (Device interfaces correctly with implants)Demonstrated: Reverse engineering of OEM implant bodies and abutment screws was performed to confirm compatibility.
    Equivalence in Intended UseDemonstrated: "Subject device abutments are substantially equivalent in intended use to the primary predicate K170588, and the reference devices K120414, K161416, K151621, and K100993. All are intended for use with endosseous dental implants in the maxilla and mandible to provide functional and esthetic rehabilitation of the edentulous maxilla and mandible." Minor language differences were deemed not to affect intended use.
    Equivalence in Technological CharacteristicsDemonstrated: The device is made of the same materials (Ti-6Al-4V alloy), has similar abutment designs (with some additions justified by reference devices), similar restoration types (single/multi-unit), and platform diameters, and is sterilized similarly. (Details provided in comparison tables on pages 10-11)

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

    • Sample Size for Test Set: Not applicable in the context of an AI/diagnostic performance study. For the mechanical testing, the document states "worst-case constructs were subjected to static compression fatigue testing," but does not specify the number of samples or "test set" size.
    • Data Provenance: Not applicable for location (country of origin), as this is a physical device testing submission. The data is from laboratory testing (mechanical, biocompatibility, sterilization validation). The testing is prospective in nature, as it was conducted specifically for this submission.

    3. Number of Experts Used to Establish Ground Truth and Qualifications

    • Not applicable. There is no "ground truth" established by experts in the context of a diagnostic performance study. The ground truth for mechanical and material properties is based on established engineering standards and test methods (e.g., ISO 14801, ISO 10993, ISO 17665).

    4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

    • Not applicable. No human-based adjudication was performed for a diagnostic test set.

    5. If a Multi Reader Multi Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study was done

    • No. This is not a submission for a diagnostic AI device, so an MRMC comparative effectiveness study was not performed.
    • Effect Size: Not applicable.

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

    • No. This is not an AI algorithm submission. The "standalone" performance here relates to the physical device's mechanical and material properties, which were tested in a laboratory setting as described under "Performance Data."

    7. The Type of Ground Truth Used

    • For physical device performance: The "ground truth" is defined by international standards (e.g., ISO 14801 for mechanical testing, ISO 10993 for biocompatibility, ISO 17665 for sterilization) and engineering specifications derived from predicate device performance and design.
