    The IMN Screws System is intended to stabilize the intramedullary nail-bone construct for temporary stabilization.

    The T2 Humeral Nail is intended to provide temporary stabilization of various types of fractures, malunions, and non-unions of the humerus. The nails are inserted using an open or closed technique and can be static, dynamic, or compression locked. The subject and predicate devices are indicated for use in the humerus. Types of fractures include, but are not limited to, fractures of the humeral shaft, non-unions, malalignments, pathological humeral fractures, and impending pathological fractures.

    Device Description

    The T2 Alpha Humerus Nailing System is an intramedullary humerus fracture nailing system consisting of sterile implants (Nails, End Caps, Compression Screw, and Washer) and non-sterile indication-specific instrumentation. The Nails, End Caps, Compression Screw, and Washer are made of titanium alloy as per ASTM F136. The T2 Alpha Humerus Nailing System will be used with the existing Locking Screws and Advanced Locking Screws of the IMN Screws System.

    The IMN Screws System includes bone screws (Locking Screws and Advanced Locking Screws) that are inserted through the intramedullary nail to stabilize the nail-bone construct. All screws are sterile and made of titanium alloy (Ti6Al4V ELI) per ASTM F136.

    The T2 Humeral Nail System is an intramedullary nailing system that allows antegrade and retrograde humeral nailing. The nails, end caps, compression screw, and washer are provided sterile and made of titanium alloy as per ASTM F136.

    AI/ML Overview

    The provided FDA 510(k) clearance letter (K251400) does not concern an AI/software device. Instead, it pertains to a physical medical device: the Stryker T2 Alpha Humerus Nailing System, IMN Screws System, and T2 Nailing System, which are intramedullary fixation rods and bone screws used for treating humerus fractures.

    Therefore, the concepts of "acceptance criteria" and "study that proves the device meets the acceptance criteria" as they relate to AI/software performance metrics (e.g., accuracy, sensitivity, specificity, F1-score, expert consensus, MRMC studies) are not applicable to this submission.

    The document discusses non-clinical performance testing for the physical device, focusing on mechanical properties, sterilization, packaging, and biocompatibility, to demonstrate substantial equivalence to previously cleared predicate devices.

    Key points from the document regarding "performance":

    • Non-Clinical Performance: This section details various engineering and material tests performed on the physical implants, such as dynamic and static bending, torsional stiffness, targeting accuracy, insertion torque, pull-out force, MRI assessment (magnetically induced displacement/torque, RF-induced heating, image artifacts), packaging tests, and biocompatibility evaluation. All these tests are standard for orthopedic implants.
    • Clinical Performance: The document explicitly states: "Clinical data were not needed for the subject devices to demonstrate substantial equivalence to the predicate devices." This is a common situation for 510(k) submissions of physical devices where substantial equivalence can be demonstrated through non-clinical testing and comparison to predicates.

    Since the request asks for information relevant to AI/software device performance, and this document is for a physical orthopedic device, I cannot extract the requested information (e.g., sample size for test/training sets, number of experts for ground truth, MRMC studies, standalone performance) because it is not present and not relevant to this specific biological device 510(k) submission.

    In summary, there is no AI/software component in this device clearance that would require the types of performance statistics and study methodologies described in the prompt.

    Device Description

    The reprocessed HARMONIC 700 with Advanced Hemostasis are designed for soft tissue incisions requiring bleeding control and minimal thermal injury. The instruments serve as an adjunct to or substitute for electrosurgery, lasers, and steel scalpels in various procedures, including general, pediatric, gynecologic, urologic, and thoracic surgeries, as well as in the sealing and transection of lymphatic vessels. They enable the coagulation of vessels up to 7 mm in diameter using the Advanced Hemostasis hand control button.

    The instruments are available in three (3) shaft lengths: 23cm, 36cm, and 45cm lengths (HAR723, HAR736, and HAR745 respectively). Each shaft length has a diameter of 5 mm. The following features are essential to the control and performance of the device:

    • An actuating trigger that closes and releases the clamp arm, securing tissue against the scalpel rod.
    • MIN/MAX control buttons that adjust energy levels between minimum and maximum modes on the generator, enabling vessel sealing up to 5 mm.
    • An Advanced Hemostasis button that allows the clinician to activate an additional energy mode, enabling vessel sealing up to 7 mm.
    • A rotation knob to rotate the shaft 360° unless energy is being delivered.
    • A torque wrench, a sterile, single-use component, used to apply the correct amount of torque when attaching the Hand Piece to the device.

    The instruments connect to a generator and hand piece, which are essential for the device's functionality but are outside the scope of this submission.
    The hand piece is a reusable component that attaches to the device and plugs into the generator, allowing the device to interface with the generator. This component contains the transducer, which converts electrical power to ultrasonic mechanical energy.

    The generator is a reusable component that generates the electrical signal. Colored light indicators on the front panel of the generator visually communicate device status information to the user.

    AI/ML Overview

    This document is a 510(k) premarket notification for reprocessed medical devices, not an AI medical device. Therefore, the questions related to AI device performance, such as MRMC studies, training and test sets, ground truth establishment, and expert adjudication, are not applicable to the content provided.

    However, I can extract the acceptance criteria and the study that proves the device meets those criteria from the provided text, focusing on the reprocessed medical device context.

    Here's the information based on the provided FDA 510(k) letter for the Reprocessed HARMONIC 700 Shears:

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

    The document describes functional performance tests conducted to demonstrate safety and effectiveness. While explicit numerical acceptance criteria values are not provided, the general categories of testing imply the criteria for performance equivalence to the predicate device. The reported performance is that the device meets these criteria and is at least as safe and effective as the predicate.

    Acceptance Criteria CategoryReported Device Performance
    Validation of ReprocessingDemonstrated to be effective.
    Electrical Safety and Electromagnetic CompatibilityTested in accordance with IEC 60601-1 and IEC 60601-1-2; results deemed acceptable.
    Functional Performance Tests:
    Jaw Clamp ForceTested and found acceptable for intended function.
    Tissue Retention ForceTested and found acceptable for intended function.
    Burst Pressure (for vessel sealing)Tested and found acceptable for sealing vessels up to 7mm.
    Maximum Jaw and Shaft TemperatureTested and found acceptable.
    Device ReliabilityDemonstrated to be reliable.
    ATT Functionality and Transection TimeTested and found acceptable for intended function.
    BiocompatibilityPreviously identified and cleared materials and reprocessing methods were maintained, demonstrating continued biocompatibility.
    Sterilization/Shelf-LifeValidated to a 10-6 sterility assurance level (SAL) through an EO sterilization process in accordance with ISO 11135. Shelf-life not explicitly detailed but implied as validated.
    Preclinical Laboratory Evaluations (Animal Model):
    Thermal SpreadTested and found acceptable.
    Ability to achieve Hemostasis of VesselsTested and found acceptable for sealing vessels up to 7mm.

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

    • Sample Size: The document does not specify the exact sample sizes (number of devices or tests) for each bench and laboratory test.
    • Data Provenance: The studies were conducted as part of the manufacturer's premarket notification submission to the FDA. They are internal validation studies performed by Stryker Sustainability Solutions. The document does not specify country of origin for the data or whether it was retrospective or prospective, but these studies for 510(k) submissions are typically prospective and specifically designed for the submission.
      • For the preclinical laboratory evaluations, an "animal model" was used.

    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 to traditional reprocessing medical device submissions. Ground truth in this context is established through engineering specifications, material science, and performance testing against established standards and predicate device performance, not expert consensus on medical images or patient outcomes.

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

    Not applicable. Adjudication methods like 2+1 or 3+1 refer to human expert review processes for AI model output or image interpretation, which is not relevant for this type of device submission. Device performance is determined through standardized engineering and biological tests.

    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 reprocessed surgical instrument, not an AI-assisted diagnostic or therapeutic device. MRMC studies are specific to evaluating human reader performance with and without AI assistance in diagnostic imaging.

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

    Not applicable. This is not an AI algorithm. Its performance is inherent to its physical properties and functionality.

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

    The "ground truth" for this device's performance is established by:

    • Engineering specifications and design requirements: The device must meet predefined physical, mechanical, and electrical parameters.
    • Performance of the original (new) predicate device: The reprocessed device must demonstrate substantial equivalence in performance to the original, legally marketed predicate device.
    • Established industry standards: Compliance with standards like ISO 10993-1 (Biocompatibility) and ISO 11135 (EO Sterilization) serves as a ground truth for safety aspects.
    • Preclinical (animal) studies: In vivo performance (e.g., thermal spread, hemostasis) in animal models serves as a proxy for clinical performance.

    8. The sample size for the training set:

    Not applicable. There is no "training set" in the context of a reprocessed medical device. The device itself is manufactured and reprocessed, not "trained" like a machine learning model.

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

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

Interlinking dowels to the femoral nail are manufactured from CoCr and will be provided sterile packaged.

    AI/ML Overview

    This appears to be a 510(k) clearance letter for an orthopedic implant, not an AI/Software as a Medical Device (SaMD). The document describes the "T2 Alpha Femur Retrograde Nailing System," which is a physical device used for internal fixation of femoral fractures.

    Therefore, the information requested in your prompt regarding acceptance criteria, study details, expert ground truth, MRMC studies, standalone performance, and training/test set provenance does not apply to this clearance document. These criteria are typically evaluated for AI/SaMD products, where algorithmic performance and human-AI interaction are critical.

    The provided document details:

    • Device Type: Intramedullary fixation rod (physical implant).
    • Performance Data: Non-clinical bench testing (fatigue strength, cut-out performance, stiffness, shear-off, pull-out, insertion, static bending, fretting corrosion, targeting accuracy, MR assessment, packaging) and references to clinical evidence from peer-reviewed scientific literature.
    • Comparison to Predicate Devices: Focuses on material, manufacturing, intended use, and mechanical performance equivalence.

    No mention of AI, algorithms, or software performance evaluation is present.

    Device Description

    The devices covered by this submission are Stryker and Serf femoral stems, femoral heads, acetabular shells and liner, and Serf acetabular bone screw, to form traditional hip or dual mobility (DM) hip systems. All devices are commercially available and have been cleared in prior 510(k) submissions.

    AI/ML Overview

    This FDA 510(k) clearance letter details the clearance of Stryker and Serf hip devices. It's important to note that this document is for traditional medical devices (implants) and NOT for a medical device (AI/ML) software. Therefore, many of the requested categories related to AI/ML software performance (like accuracy, F1 score, sample sizes for test/training sets, expert ground truth, MRMC studies) are not applicable to this submission.

    The "device" in this context refers to the physical hip implant components. The submission (K250989) is primarily for updating labeling to inform users of compatibility between components from Stryker and Serf, and for adding MR safety information to Serf products.

    Here's an analysis of the provided text based on the requested information categories, indicating when a category is not applicable:


    1. Table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance

    Since this is for physical hip implant components and primarily a labeling update for compatibility, the "acceptance criteria" and "reported device performance" are based on engineering analyses verifying the physical and functional compatibility and MR safety of the combined components, rather than typical performance metrics for AI/ML software.

    Acceptance Criteria (Implied)Reported Device Performance (Implied)
    Mechanical Compatibility:Satisfied: Engineering analyses confirmed safe compatibility.
    - Wear and articular surface tolerances- Acceptable wear and articular surface tolerances when combined.
    - Impingement- No unacceptable impingement issues.
    - Range of motion- Maintained appropriate range of motion.
    - Femoral head disassembly- No premature femoral head disassembly.
    MR Safety:Satisfied: Demonstrated safe under MRI conditions.
    - Heating- Acceptable heating levels.
    - Displacement- Negligible displacement.
    - Induced torque- Acceptable induced torque levels.
    - Image artifact- Acceptable levels of image artifact.
    Substantial Equivalence:Achieved: Determined to be substantially equivalent to predicate devices.

    2. Sample sized 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: Not applicable in the context of clinical images or AI/ML data. The "test set" here refers to the physical samples of the hip implant components and their combinations. The document does not specify the exact number of physical samples tested for each engineering analysis (wear, impingement, etc.).
    • Data Provenance: Not applicable in the context of clinical images. The data provenance would be internal laboratory testing results performed by the manufacturer. No country of origin for clinical data is relevant here. The studies were non-clinical (engineering analyses).

    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. For physical device compatibility and MR safety, ground truth is established through engineering principles, mechanical testing, and standardized MR safety protocols, not by expert consensus on clinical data.

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

    Not applicable. No clinical adjudication of results from image analysis is relevant for this type of device submission.

    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 an AI/ML software device.

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

    Not applicable. This is not an AI/ML software device.

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

    Given the nature of the device (physical hip implants), the "ground truth" for the engineering analyses would be:

    • Established engineering standards and specifications: For wear, impingement, range of motion, and femoral head disassembly.
    • International standards for MR safety: Such as ASTM standards for MR compatibility testing (e.g., heating, displacement, induced torque, image artifact).

    8. The sample size for the training set

    Not applicable. This is not an AI/ML software device.

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

    Not applicable. This is not an AI/ML software device.


    Summary of the Study that Proves the Device Meets Acceptance Criteria:

    The study that proves the device meets the (implied) acceptance criteria is a series of non-clinical engineering analyses. The submission states:

    • Non-Clinical Testing: "Performance of the subject combinations of Stryker and Serf hip devices were evaluated in a series of engineering analyses. These included wear and articular surface tolerances, impingement, range of motion, femoral head disassembly, and MR safety (including heating, displacement, induced torque, and image artifact)."
    • Clinical Testing: "Clinical testing was not required as a basis for substantial equivalence."
    • Conclusion on Equivalence: "Based upon a comparison of the intended use, indications for use, design, material, sterilization method, technical and performance characteristics, and operational principles, the Stryker and Serf subject hip devices, when used in the proposed compatible combinations with each other, are substantially equivalent to the predicate devices identified in this premarket notification."

    The FDA's clearance is based on the determination that these engineering analyses confirm the safety and effectiveness of the proposed compatible combinations and MR safety, demonstrating substantial equivalence to previously cleared predicate devices. The acceptance criteria are implicit in the successful completion of these standard engineering tests for orthopedic implants.

    Device Description

    The subject THK components are a line extension of the previously cleared Triathlon® Hinge Knee System (K223528, K230416). The THK System (K223528, K230416) is a tricompartmental knee system consisting of a stemmed femoral component and a stemmed tibial bearing component connected by a set of previously cleared MRH or THK Bushings and an MRH or THK Axle (K994207, K002552, K223528, K230416). A bumper locks this assembly. This assembly provides motion through the MRH or THK Axle/Bushings combination in the flexion/extension plane. The articulation between the bearing surfaces on the underside of a tibial bearing component and a tibial insert provides motion in the rotating plane. A hinge tibial insert is assembled to a Triathlon® Hinge Revision Tibial Baseplate that incorporates a longitudinal bore to accept a previously cleared MRH Tibial Sleeve (K994207, K002552) or Triathlon Tibial Sleeve (K223528, K230416). Optional distal femoral and tibial augments are available to fill bone defects.

    The subject Triathlon® Hinge Small Proximal Tibial Bearing Component and Triathlon® End Cap are sterile, single use devices intended for cemented use only and are being added to the previously cleared THK system (K223528, K230416) as an extension. They can be used with previously cleared MRH Knee components (K994207, K002552), GMRS (K023087, K222056), and Triathlon® Knee System components (K172634, K172326, K190991, K143393, K141056, K132624, K070095, K061521, K053514, K052917, K051948, K051146, K040267).

    AI/ML Overview

    This FDA 510(k) clearance letter is for a mechanical medical device (a knee implant system), not an AI/software as a medical device. Therefore, the request for "acceptance criteria and the study that proves the device meets the acceptance criteria" using metrics relevant to AI/software (like sensitivity, specificity, MRMC studies, ground truth for training/test sets, etc.) is not applicable here.

    The document provided details about the substantial equivalence of the "Triathlon® Hinge Knee System" to previously cleared predicate devices. The "study" proving the device meets acceptance criteria for a mechanical implant typically involves non-clinical (benchtop) testing and engineering analyses to demonstrate performance, material compatibility, and safety, rather than clinical trials or AI performance evaluations with ground truth.

    Here's how the provided information relates to the typical evaluation of such a device, addressing the closest analogues to your requested points:


    Acceptance Criteria and Device Performance for a Mechanical Implant:

    For mechanical implants like the Triathlon® Hinge Knee System, "acceptance criteria" are generally tied to the successful completion of various non-clinical (benchtop) tests and analyses. These tests simulate the physical stresses and conditions the implant will experience in the human body. The "study" proving the device meets these criteria is the execution and successful outcome of these non-clinical tests.

    No direct table of "acceptance criteria" vs. "reported device performance" in the AI sense is provided in this 510(k) summary. Instead, the summary lists the types of non-clinical tests performed to demonstrate performance and substantial equivalence to predicate devices. The implied acceptance is that the device passed these tests, meaning its performance in these simulated scenarios was deemed acceptable and comparable to existing, legally marketed devices.

    AI/ML Overview

    The provided FDA 510(k) clearance letter for the SPY Laparoscope primarily details bench testing and compliance with various recognized standards to demonstrate substantial equivalence to a predicate device. It explicitly states that "The subject device does not require clinical studies to support the determination of substantial equivalence."

    Therefore, the information you've requested regarding acceptance criteria and study proving performance, particularly related to human-in-the-loop performance, multi-reader multi-case studies, and the specifics of clinical ground truth establishment, is not available in this document. The clearance is based on a demonstration of equivalent technical performance and safety through non-clinical testing.

    Here's how we can address your request based on the provided text, focusing on the available information:


    Acceptance Criteria and Device Performance (Based on Non-Clinical Testing)

    Since no clinical study data is presented, the "acceptance criteria" here refers to meeting the performance specifications and standards compared to the predicate device, primarily through bench testing.

    Information Not Available (Due to Reliance on Non-Clinical Testing)

    The following points cannot be addressed from the provided document because the 510(k) clearance was based on non-clinical testing for substantial equivalence, not on clinical performance studies involving human subjects or AI:

    2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance: Not applicable in the context of clinical data. The "test set" here refers to the physical units of the SPY Laparoscope and reference devices used in the various bench tests. Data provenance is internal lab testing.
    3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts: Not applicable. Ground truth for bench testing is derived from metrology and engineering standards.
    4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set: Not applicable.
    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 an endoscope, not an AI-driven image analysis tool. The document explicitly states "The subject device does not require clinical studies to support the determination of substantial equivalence."
    6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done: Not applicable. This is a hardware device; no AI algorithm is mentioned or evaluated in this context.
    7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc): For non-clinical tests, "ground truth" is defined by established engineering and optical standards, and measurements. For example, FOV measurements are compared against an acceptable range, not a clinical diagnosis.
    8. The sample size for the training set: Not applicable. This is not an AI or machine learning device requiring a training set.
    9. How the ground truth for the training set was established: Not applicable.


    In summary: The FDA clearance for the SPY Laparoscope, as described in this 510(k) summary, is based entirely on a demonstration of non-clinical substantial equivalence to a predicate device. This includes demonstrating equivalent optical performance, electrical safety, biocompatibility, reprocessing efficacy, and overall risk management. Clinical studies or studies involving human-in-the-loop performance, AI, or advanced diagnostic accuracy metrics were not part of this clearance process.

    Intended Use

    The SPY Cystoscopes/Hysteroscopes are intended to provide visualization in general urological and gynecological surgery through the minimally invasive approach, by utilizing natural orifices to access the surgical site.

    Device Description

    The SPY Cystoscope/Hysteroscope is part of Stryker's rigid endoscope product portfolio. The SPY Cystoscope/Hysteroscope is an optical instrument used to visualize or image a patient's anatomy during minimally invasive, endoscopic procedures for examination, diagnosis or therapy.

    AI/ML Overview

    Based on the provided FDA 510(k) clearance letter for the SPY Cystoscope/Hysteroscope (K252012), here's a description of the acceptance criteria and the study that proves the device meets them:

    Important Note: The provided document is a 510(k) clearance letter, which summarizes the information submitted by the manufacturer. It does not contain the full details of the testing performed. Therefore, some of the requested information (especially regarding specific test methodologies, exact sample sizes for training/test sets, expert qualifications, and ground truth establishment details) is not explicitly stated in this summary. I will highlight what is present and what is inferred based on standard regulatory practices for this type of device.


    Study Proving Device Meets Acceptance Criteria

    The study performed to demonstrate the device meets acceptance criteria was a non-clinical performance and safety evaluation, primarily involving bench testing. This approach is common for optical, non-diagnostic devices like endoscopes, where functionality can be objectively measured. The submission explicitly states, "The subject device does not require clinical studies to support the determination of substantial equivalence."

    1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

    The letter outlines the types of non-clinical tests performed, implying these are the areas for which performance criteria were established. While the letter doesn't provide specific numerical acceptance thresholds or the exact measured values, it states that the testing "demonstrates the device conforms with design input requirements, user needs and intended uses."

    Acceptance Criteria Category (Implied)Reported Device Performance Summary
    Optical Performance Characteristics:• Demonstrates conformity with design input requirements, user needs, and intended uses.
    • Comparative bench top testing shows subject and reference device's optical performance are equivalent.
    Optimal Object Distance (Depth of Field)Testing performed.
    Fiber TransmissionTesting performed.
    Optical TransmissionTesting performed.
    DistortionTesting performed.
    Modulated Transfer Function (MTF) Center and FringesTesting performed.
    VignettingTesting performed.
    Field of View (FOV)Testing performed.
    Apparent Field of View (AFOV)Testing performed.

    Hardware Compatibility (Stryker and Karl Storz series models)Testing performed.
    Safety & Risk Assessment:• Risk management activities concluded that the benefits associated with the use of the device outweigh the residual risk; the overall residual risk is acceptable.
    Packaging Qualification:• A summary of packaging qualification is provided.

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

    • Sample Size: The document does not specify the exact sample sizes (e.g., number of devices tested) for the non-clinical bench tests. For most bench testing, typically a representative sample or a statistically significant number of production units are tested to ensure consistency and meet specifications.
    • Data Provenance: This was non-clinical bench testing, not human data. Therefore, concepts like "country of origin of the data" or "retrospective/prospective" do not directly apply to the primary performance testing.

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

    • Not Applicable: Since this device is an optical instrument for visualization (not an AI/diagnostic algorithm interpreting images), and the testing was non-clinical bench testing, "experts" in the sense of clinical reviewers establishing ground truth for a test set (e.g., radiologists reading images) were not involved in the direct performance evaluation of the device's optical properties. The "ground truth" for these tests would be the established engineering and optical performance specifications.

    4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

    • Not Applicable: Given that the performance evaluation was based on objective, quantitative bench testing (e.g., measuring MTF, FOV, transmission), there was no need for human adjudication of test results in the way one would adjudicate case labels for diagnostic AI. The results are based on instrumental measurements compared against specifications.

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

    • No: The document explicitly states: "The subject device does not require clinical studies to support the determination of substantial equivalence." An MRMC study is a clinical study involving human readers. Therefore, no MRMC study was performed or required for this 510(k) clearance.
    • Effect Size: Not applicable as no MRMC study was conducted.

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

    • Not Applicable: This device is a physical optical instrument (cystoscope/hysteroscope), not an AI algorithm. Therefore, the concept of "standalone algorithm performance" does not apply. Its performance is its ability to transmit light and form an image according to specifications, which was evaluated via bench testing.

    7. The Type of Ground Truth Used

    • Engineering/Optical Specifications: The ground truth for this device's performance evaluation was established through pre-defined engineering and optical specifications (design input requirements) that the device must meet (e.g., a specific MTF value, a defined FOV range, acceptable levels of distortion, etc.). These specifications are typically derived from industry standards, predicate device performance, and user needs.

    8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

    • Not Applicable: This is a hardware device; thus, it does not have a "training set" in the context of machine learning. The design and manufacturing processes are refined through engineering, prototyping, and iterative testing, not through training on data.

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

    • Not Applicable: As there is no "training set," this question is not relevant for this device. Ground truth for hardware development is established through engineering design principles, materials science, and manufacturing tolerances.

    Summary of Approach:

    The clearance for the SPY Cystoscope/Hysteroscope relied on a "Comparison to Predicate" approach, underpinned by extensive non-clinical bench testing to demonstrate that the new device's different technological characteristics (specifically smaller outer diameter and increased field-of-view) "do not raise different questions of safety or effectiveness" compared to the predicate devices. The safety and effectiveness were established by confirming the device met its design specifications for various optical and mechanical parameters.

    Intended Use

    Intended Use: The Incompass Total Ankle System is intended to give a patient limited mobility by reducing pain, restoring alignment and replacing the flexion and extension movement in the ankle joint.

    Indications for Use: The Incompass Total Ankle is indicated for patients with ankle joints damaged by severe rheumatoid, post-traumatic, or degenerative arthritis. The Incompass Total Ankle is additionally indicated for patients with a failed previous ankle surgery.

    Device Description

    Incompass™ Total Ankle System is a total ankle replacement system consisting of implants and instruments.

    Incompass™ Total Ankle System will harmonize the Infinity™ and Inbone™ Total Ankle Systems into one comprehensive system consisting of modular stemmed and low-profile pegged tibial trays, tibial inserts, and talar domes. The harmonized system is facilitated by sharing the same tibial resection geometry between the pegged and the stemmed tibial tray designs.

    AI/ML Overview

    The provided text is a 510(k) clearance letter for the Incompass Total Ankle System. It outlines the device's indications for use, its classification, and declares its substantial equivalence to predicate devices based on non-clinical evidence.

    However, the clearance letter explicitly states: "Clinical testing was not necessary for the determination of substantial equivalence."

    This means that the information requested regarding acceptance criteria, study details, sample sizes, expert involvement, and ground truth establishment (which are typical for studies proving a device meets acceptance criteria, especially for AI/ML-based devices or those requiring clinical trials) is not included in this document. The clearance was based on non-clinical performance bench testing to demonstrate substantial equivalence in wear, articular stability, lock detail, manufacturing processes, static strength, fatigue strength, fretting, corrosion, and MRI safety, rather than clinical efficacy studies.

    Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information from this document. If this were a submission for a device that required clinical performance data to demonstrate safety and effectiveness (e.g., an AI/ML device), this section would typically contain summaries of those studies.

    Based on the provided document, here's what can be inferred or explicitly stated regarding the acceptance criteria and study proving adherence to them:

    The device in question is a Total Ankle System, a type of orthopedic implant, not an AI/ML-based device or one that underwent a clinical efficacy study for its 510(k) clearance.

    The "study" that proves the device meets acceptance criteria, in this context, refers to non-clinical performance bench testing.

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

    Since no clinical efficacy study was conducted for this 510(k) clearance, there's no data to populate such a table detailing clinical performance metrics (like sensitivity, specificity, or human reader improvement).

    The acceptance criteria for this device were related to substantial equivalence through bench testing. The document states:

    Acceptance Criteria (Implied for Substantial Equivalence)Reported Device Performance (from Non-Clinical Bench Testing)
    Demonstrate wear performance comparable to predicate.Testing performed to demonstrate substantial equivalence in wear.
    Demonstrate articular stability comparable to predicate.Testing performed to demonstrate substantial equivalence in articular stability.
    Demonstrate lock detail comparable to predicate.Testing performed to demonstrate substantial equivalence in lock detail.
    Adherence to manufacturing processes.Testing performed to demonstrate substantial equivalence in manufacturing processes.
    Demonstrate static strength comparable to predicate.Testing performed to demonstrate substantial equivalence in static strength.
    Demonstrate fatigue strength comparable to predicate.Testing performed to demonstrate substantial equivalence in fatigue strength.
    Demonstrate fretting performance comparable to predicate.Testing performed to demonstrate substantial equivalence in fretting.
    Demonstrate corrosion resistance comparable to predicate.Testing performed to demonstrate substantial equivalence in corrosion.
    Demonstrate MRI safety.Testing performed to demonstrate substantial equivalence in MRI safety.
    Overall, no new questions of safety or effectiveness raised compared to predicates."The differences in design specifications do not raise any new questions of safety and effectiveness over the predicate, which is demonstrated in the performance testing and process validation."

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

    • Sample Size: Not specified in the document, as it refers to engineering and materials testing (bench testing) rather than a dataset of patient cases. For bench testing, "samples" would refer to the number of devices or components tested.
    • Data Provenance: Not applicable in the context of clinical patient data (e.g., country of origin, retrospective/prospective), as the evidence was non-clinical bench testing. The testing would have been conducted in a laboratory setting.

    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 typically defined for AI/ML or clinical studies (e.g., expert consensus on medical images) was not established. The "ground truth" for bench testing is determined by engineering standards, material science principles, and established testing methodologies.

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

    • Not applicable. This is relevant for studies involving human reviewers or AI output, not for materials and mechanical bench testing.

    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. This type of study is specifically for AI/ML-assisted diagnostic devices. The Incompass Total Ankle System is a physical medical implant.

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

    • No. This is relevant for AI/ML algorithms.

    7. The type of ground truth used:

    • The "ground truth" for this clearance was established through engineering standards, material specifications, and validated bench testing protocols comparing the device's physical and mechanical properties against those of legally marketed predicate devices. It is not based on expert consensus, pathology, or outcomes data in the clinical sense.

    8. The sample size for the training set:

    • Not applicable. This device is not an AI/ML algorithm that requires a training set.

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

    Device Description

    The Knotilus+ Biocomposite Knotless Anchors are hard-body, push-in, knotless bone anchors. The subject device is comprised of a poly-ether-ether-ketone (PEEK) eyelet and poly-L-lactide ("PLLA") and beta-tricalcium phosphate ("β-TCP") anchor body, pre-assembled onto a disposable stainless-steel inserter, which enables insertion of the anchor into bone after creation of a pilot hole. The devices are single use, provided sterile, and are packaged in sterile barrier systems (SBS).

    AI/ML Overview

    It appears there has been a misunderstanding. The FDA 510(k) clearance letter you provided is for a Knotilus+ Biocomposite Knotless Anchor, which is a medical device used for soft-tissue to bone fixation. This is a physical, implantable device, not a software or AI-driven diagnostic tool.

    The questions you've asked (about acceptance criteria, test set sample sizes, data provenance, expert ground truth, MRMC studies, standalone algorithm performance, training set details, etc.) are highly relevant to the validation of Artificial Intelligence (AI) or machine learning (ML) medical devices, particularly those performing image analysis or diagnostic functions.

    Since the provided document describes a physical bone anchor device, the concept of "acceptance criteria" and "study that proves the device meets the acceptance criteria" as they relate to AI/ML performance metrics (like sensitivity, specificity, AUC, etc., derived from test sets and human expert evaluations) does not apply.

    For a physical device like a bone anchor, "acceptance criteria" would typically relate to:

    • Mechanical properties: E.g., Ultimate Tensile Strength (UTS), pull-out strength, fatigue life, torsional strength.
    • Biocompatibility: Absence of adverse tissue reactions.
    • Sterility: Ensuring the device is free from microorganisms.
    • Dimensional accuracy: Conforming to design specifications.
    • Material properties: Chemical composition, degradation rates (for biocomposite materials).

    The document states that "Non-clinical benchtop testing was performed to evaluate the performance characteristics of the Knotilus+ Biocomposite Knotless Anchor, including ultimate tensile strength (UTS), UTS after Cyclic Loading, UTS after Degradation, and insertion testing." It also mentions "Bacterial endotoxin testing." These are the types of studies that prove this device meets its performance and safety acceptance criteria.

    Therefore, I cannot populate the table or answer the specific questions related to AI/ML device validation based on the provided document because it describes a different class of medical device.

    If you have a document related to an AI/ML medical device, please provide that, and I will be happy to answer your questions accordingly.
