Fine Osteotomy
Fine Osteotomy™ is a system intended for open- and closed-wedge osteotomies, treatment of bone and joint deformities, fixation of fractures and malalignment caused by injury or disease, such as osteoarthritis, of the distal femur and proximal tibia.
Fine Osteotomy disposable instrumentation is intended to assist in pre-operative planning and/or in guiding the marking of bone and/or guiding of surgical instruments in non-acute, non-joint replacing osteotomies around the knee.
Fine Osteotomy is a patient-specific device.
The Fine Osteotomy™ System is a patient-specific orthopedic device designed to assist surgeons in planning and performing precise osteotomies around the knee. It utilizes patient imaging data to create 3D anatomical models used for the design of cutting guides and fixation implants tailored to the individual anatomy. The system includes single-use cutting guides manufactured from PA 12 polymer and fixation components made of titanium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V ELI). The implants are designed to support stable bone fixation following the osteotomy. The device operates without an energy source and relies on mechanical alignment and rigid fixation principles. Minor refinements have been incorporated to improve compatibility with surgical planning and instrument design, without affecting the intended use or fundamental function of the system. The device is supplied non-sterile and includes a combination of patient-specific and reusable components.
This FDA 510(k) clearance letter for the Fine Osteotomy™ system does not contain the detailed information required to describe the acceptance criteria and the specific study that proves the device meets those criteria.
The document primarily focuses on the regulatory aspects of the 510(k) submission, confirming substantial equivalence to a predicate device. While it mentions "non-clinical testing" was performed, it provides a high-level summary and lacks the specific data points requested in your prompt.
Here's a breakdown of why the requested information cannot be extracted from this document:
- Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance: The document states, "All tests confirmed that the device meets applicable requirements and continues to perform as intended." However, it does not specify what those "applicable requirements" or performance metrics are, nor does it provide a table of actual results against specific acceptance criteria.
- Sample Size and Data Provenance: The document does not mention sample sizes for any tests, nor the country of origin of data, or whether it was retrospective or prospective.
- Experts for Ground Truth Establishment: There is no mention of experts, ground truth establishment, or any details related to human interpretation or readings.
- Adjudication Method: Not applicable as there's no mention of expert review or ground truth establishment requiring adjudication.
- Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Study: The document explicitly states, "No clinical testing was necessary, as the modifications do not alter the intended use, safety, or effectiveness of the device." Therefore, no MRMC study was conducted. There is no information about human readers or AI assistance.
- Stand-alone (Algorithm Only) Performance: While the device has a software component("support usability through a software update"), the document does not break down performance specific to an algorithm's standalone performance. It focuses on the overall system (hardware and software).
- Type of Ground Truth Used: Not applicable, as no ground truth for diagnostic accuracy is discussed. The testing mentioned appears to be related to mechanical/dimensional properties and software verification.
- Training Set Sample Size: No information about a training set is provided, as the document mainly describes the device and its regulatory clearance process, not its development or training of any AI/ML components.
- How Ground Truth for Training Set was Established: Not applicable as no training set is discussed.
Conclusion:
This 510(k) clearance letter for Fine Osteotomy™ is a regulatory approval document. It confirms that the device is substantially equivalent to a previously cleared predicate and that non-clinical testing was sufficient to demonstrate this. However, it does not provide the detailed scientific study results, acceptance criteria, ground truth methodology, or clinical performance metrics (especially for diagnostic accuracy or human-AI interaction) that you are requesting. These details would typically be found in a more comprehensive clinical study report or a detailed design verification and validation document, which are not part of this public FDA clearance letter.

I am sorry, but the provided text does not contain the detailed information necessary to fully address all aspects of your request regarding the acceptance criteria and the study that proves the device meets them. The document is an FDA 510(k) summary, which focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device rather than providing a detailed clinical study report or explicit acceptance criteria for device performance.
Specifically, the document does not contain:
- A table of acceptance criteria and reported device performance. While it mentions mechanical performance testing and engineering analysis, it doesn't quantify specific targets (e.g., "accuracy within X mm") or provide numerical results for those targets.
- Sample sizes used for the test set. The performance data section refers to "testing" and "engineering analysis" but does not specify sample sizes for any experimental validation or testing.
- Number of experts used to establish ground truth or their qualifications. The document does not describe any studies involving human experts establishing ground truth.
- Adjudication method for the test set. Given that no human expert evaluation is described, no adjudication method is mentioned.
- Details on a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study, effect size regarding AI assistance, or standalone performance. This document describes a surgical planning system and instruments, not an AI/Software as a Medical Device (SaMD) that typically undergoes MRMC studies to evaluate AI assistance.
- The type of ground truth used. The validation discussed is engineering analysis and mechanical testing, not a ground truth derived from clinical outcomes or expert consensus in an AI context.
- Sample size for the training set or how ground truth for the training set was established. This information would be relevant for an AI/machine learning device, which this submission does not explicitly describe. The "software re-validation" is mentioned but without details on its nature (e.g., whether it involves machine learning model training).
What the document does convey regarding device performance and validation:
The document states that the "changes to the software and implant and instrument design were analyzed, tested, and validated." The performance data summarized relates to demonstrating that the modified device (Fine Osteotomy™ K211646) is substantially equivalent to its predicate (K193614), not necessarily a comprehensive clinical performance study.
Here's a summary of the performance data and validation mentioned, organized to implicitly address parts of your request where information is available:
1. Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance (Implicit/Inferred):
While a specific table isn't present, the document implies the following "acceptance criteria" through its performance testing descriptions, with the "reported performance" being that these were met sufficiently to demonstrate substantial equivalence.
Implicit Acceptance Criterion | Reported Device Performance |
---|---|
Mechanical Performance (Torsional Strength & Fixation) | "The results of this testing showed no significant difference in torsional strength and fixation into simulated bone between the subject T20 and the primary predicate T15 bone screws." (ASTM F543 and FDA Guidance Document "Orthopedic Non-Spinal Metallic Bone Screws and Washers, Performance Criteria for Safety and Performance Based Pathway") |
Bone Plate Strength/Worst Case Analysis | "Engineering analysis of the subject bone plate device relative to the minimum section modulus / design of the primary predicate bone plate demonstrated that no new worst case was created relative to the least strong predicate bone plate." This was based on: (1) Same minimum cross-section modulus and bounding-box, (2) No change in minimum distances between screw holes and osteotomy location. |
Software Equivalence | "Verification and validation activities demonstrated that the Bodycad software used to design the subject device patient specific guides and implants is substantially equivalent to the Bodycad software used to design the primary predicate devices." The software was "re-validated per FDA guidance documents." |
Biocompatibility | "The original assessment of biocompatibility of the primary predicate device was adopted for the subject device because no new materials, manufacturing processes, or worst-case device was created by the line extension of T20 screws and minor design updates." (Evaluated per ISO 10993-1). |
Cleaning and Sterilization (for modified components) | "The original cleaning and sterility validation of the implant and disposable instrument kit and the reusable instrument kit were applicable to the subject device because no new worst cases were created by the updates to the Fine Osteotomy System." AND "Cleaning and sterilization was validated to a SAL of 10⁻⁶ by Nelson Labs for a new screw tray caddy and bone screws per ANSI/AAMI/ISO 17665-1:2006/(R)2013, Annex D and ANSI/AAMI/ISO 14937:2009/(R)2013, Annex D (Approach 3)." This indicates that the validation for new components (screw tray caddy, T20 screws) met the sterility assurance level (SAL) of 10⁻⁶, a standard acceptance criterion for sterile medical devices. |
2. Sample Sizes and Data Provenance:
- Test Set Sample Sizes: Not specified. The document mentions "testing" (e.g., mechanical) and "engineering analysis" but does not provide numbers of devices or simulations.
- Data Provenance: Not specified. The manufacturing and submitting companies are Canadian (Quebec), but the origin of any data used for design or validation (e.g., patient imaging data that the software processes) is not mentioned. The studies are retrospective in the sense that they are engineering and mechanical tests based on device design, not prospective human trials.
3. Number of Experts and Qualifications:
- Not applicable as the described validation is primarily engineering and mechanical testing, not a human reader study for an AI device.
4. Adjudication Method:
- Not applicable for the reasons above.
5. MRMC Comparative Effectiveness Study:
- No MRMC or human-in-the-loop study is mentioned. This device is a surgical planning and instrument guide system, not an AI for image analysis or diagnosis. Therefore, a comparative effectiveness study showing human readers improve with AI assistance is not relevant to this submission type.
6. Standalone Performance:
- The "performance data" section details the device's mechanical and software performance attributes as a standalone product (e.g., screw strength, bone plate strength, software function), but not "standalone algorithm performance" in the context of an AI device. The device itself (the surgical guides, plates, and screws) has performance characteristics validated.
7. Type of Ground Truth Used:
- For mechanical testing, the "ground truth" is established by physical measurement and standardized test methods (e.g., ASTM F543) and engineering principles (e.g., section modulus calculations).
- For software, the "ground truth" for re-validation would likely involve software verification and validation protocols ensuring that the software performs its intended functions (e.g., designing guides/implants from CT images) accurately according to specifications.
- For biocompatibility and sterilization, the "ground truth" is adherence to international standards (ISO 10993-1, ISO 17665-1, ISO 14937) and achieving specified safety levels (e.g., SAL of 10⁻⁶).
8. Sample Size for the Training Set:
- Not applicable. This is not an AI/machine learning model where a "training set" in that sense would exist. The software develops patient-specific designs from patient CT images, implying it's a rule-based or algorithmic design system, not a trained neural network.
9. How Ground Truth for the Training Set was Established:
- Not applicable for the reasons above.
In summary, the provided FDA 510(k) document focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence for a modified surgical device through mechanical and engineering analyses, rather than detailing a rigorous clinical study with patient outcomes, human expert review, or AI model performance validation that would typically include the requested criteria.

FINE Osteotomy around the knee
Fine Osteotomy is a system intended for osteotomies, treatment of bone and joint deformities, fixation of fractures and malalignment caused by injury or disease, such as osteoarthritis, of the distal femur and proximal tibia.
Specifically,
-
The Fine Osteotomy tibial plates are indicated for open- and closed-wedge osteotomies of the medial tibia, treatment of bone and joint deformities, fractures, non-unions, and malalignment caused by injury or disease, such as osteoarthritis, of the proximal tibia.
-
The Fine Osteotomy femoral plates are indicated for open- and closed wedge osteotomies of the medial and lateral distal femur, treatment of bone and joint deformities, fractures, and malalignment caused by injury or disease, such as osteoarthritis, of the distal femur.
-
Fine Osteotomy instrument guides are intended to assist in pre-operative planning and/or in guiding the marking of bone and/or guiding of surgical instruments in non-acute, non-joint replacing osteotomies around the knee.
Fine Osteotomy is a patient-specific device.
Fine Osteotomy™ for the knee is a system for planning and performing osteotomies of the distal femur and proximal tibia, and for stabilizing the bone with bone screws and a patient-specific bone plate designed to fit the patient's anatomy. Fine Osteotomy™ consists of patient-specific surgical planning and instrument guides designed from long-standing x-ray and computed tomography (CT) images of the patient's bones, a patient-specific bone plate designed from the CT images, compression and/or locking bone screws, and manual reusable instruments. The bone plate is a patient-specific, single-use implant; the patient-specific surgical planning and instrument guides are single-use and discarded after surgery. Fine Osteotomy™ is offered in three configurations: 1) as a system of patient specific implants and single use instruments for performing the osteotomy and implanting hardware to stabilize the resection. 2) as patient specific single use instrumentation for performing an osteotomy alone, and 3) as patient specific bone plate and screws for stabilizing a bone resection or fracture.
When used as a system, Fine Osteotomy™ enables the surgeon to perform an osteotomy and stabilize the bone around the knee that matches the pre-surgical plan via the patient-specific cutting guides and bone plate designed from the patient's CT images. When the planning guides and resection instruments are used alone, Fine Osteotomy™ enables the surgeon to perform an osteotomy the bone around the knee that matches the pre-surgical plan via the patient-specific cutting guides designed from the patient's CT images. When the bone plate and screws are used alone, Fine Osteotomy™ enables the surgeon to stabilize fractured or resected bone per the pre-surgical plan using the patient's CT images in design of the Bodycad plate and use of the bone models intra operatively to guide placement of the implants and alignment of bone.
Materials: Wrought Titanium-6Aluminum-4Vanadium ELI Alloy (Ti6A14V ELI; ASTM F136-13) for the bone plates and screws. ADM Nylon-12 for patient specific resection quides and models.
Here's a breakdown of the acceptance criteria and study information for the "Fine Osteotomy" device, based on the provided FDA 510(k) summary:
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance
The FDA 510(k) summary does not explicitly list distinct "acceptance criteria" with numerical targets in the same way a diagnostic AI device might. Instead, it details that pre-clinical performance testing was conducted according to various standards and guidance documents, and the results demonstrated substantial equivalence to predicate and reference devices.
Therefore, the "acceptance criteria" are implicitly defined by compliance with these standards and the achievement of "substantial equivalence." The reported device performance is the affirmation that these criteria were met.
Acceptance Criteria (Implicit) | Reported Device Performance |
---|---|
Material Properties: | |
Compliance with ASTM F136-13 (Ti6Al4V ELI) for bone plates and screws. | Ti6A14V ELI (ASTM F136-13) used. Conforms. |

2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance
The summary does not provide specific numerical sample sizes for the mechanical testing or cadaver studies. It mentions:
- "Evaluation of biomechanical characteristics of subject devices in simulated HTO model"
- "Cadaver simulation of use of the Fine Osteotomy system"
The provenance of this data is implicitly from pre-clinical lab testing and cadaver studies, conducted by or for Bodycad Laboratories Inc.
3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications of Those Experts
This information is not provided in the document. For pre-clinical mechanical and cadaver studies, "ground truth" often refers to measurements against established physical standards or surgical outcomes in a simulated environment, rather than expert consensus on medical images.
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set
This information is not applicable/provided. Adjudication methods like "2+1" or "3+1" are typically used in clinical studies involving interpretation of medical images or patient outcomes by multiple human readers, often for AI or diagnostic devices. This document describes pre-clinical engineering and cadaver testing.
5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study Was Done, and Effect Size
No, an MRMC comparative effectiveness study was not done or reported in this 510(k) summary. The document focuses on pre-clinical performance and substantial equivalence to predicate devices, not on human reader performance with or without AI assistance.
6. If a Standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) Was Done
The device includes "patient-specific surgical planning and instrument guides designed from long-standing x-ray and computed tomography (CT) images." The summary mentions "Validation and verification of software per FDA guidance documents."
This indicates that the software component (which creates the patient-specific guides and plates) was evaluated in a standalone manner (algorithm only) to ensure it performs according to specifications. However, no specific performance metrics for the standalone algorithm (e.g., accuracy of measurement extraction, segmentation accuracy) are provided in this summary. The "acceptance criteria" for the software are broadly stated as "validation and verification per FDA guidance documents."
7. The Type of Ground Truth Used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.)
For the pre-clinical studies, the "ground truth" would be established by:
- Engineering Specifications/Standards: For mechanical testing (e.g., ASTM, ISO standards).
- Physical Measurements: In the cadaver study, the "accuracy of correction and position of implants" would be measured directly against the pre-surgical plan and possibly conventional surgical outcomes, serving as the ground truth.
- Design Specifications: For the software, the ground truth would be the intended design output when processing CT images (e.g., correct anatomical measurements, precise guide designs).
8. The Sample Size for the Training Set
This information is not provided and is likely not applicable in the traditional sense. The device is not learning from a "training set" of medical images for diagnostic purposes. Instead, the software is programmed based on algorithms to generate patient-specific designs from individual CT images. If any "training" occurred, it would be in the development and refinement of the design algorithms, not in the context of a machine learning training set for diagnostic output.
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established
As above, this information is not provided and likely not applicable as there's no mention of a traditional machine learning "training set" for diagnostic classification. The software's "ground truth" would be its ability to accurately translate CT image data into precise, patient-specific surgical plans, instrument guides, and implant designs according to engineering and anatomical principles. This would be established through internal design validation and verification processes.
