MITEK RAPIDLOC-PDS MENISCAL REPAIR SYSTEM
The RAPIDLOC-PDS Meniscal Repair System is intended for use in the arthroscopic fixation of longitudinal vertical meniscus lesions (bucket-handle lesions) located in the vascularized area of the meniscus (red-red and red-white areas).
The RAPIDLOC-PDS Meniscal Repair System consists of a two piece (polydiaxonone tophat and polylactic acid backstop) bioabsorbable meniscal tissue fixation implant mounted on a 2/0 pre-knotted PANACRYL braided long-term absorbable suture. It is applied using a cannulated needle and arthroscopic pusher.
The provided text describes a 510(k) premarket notification for the Mitek RAPIDLOC-PDS Meniscal Repair System. This is a medical device, not a software algorithm or AI. Therefore, the questions related to acceptance criteria, study details for AI/software performance, ground truth, sample sizes for training/test sets, MRMC studies, and standalone algorithm performance are not applicable.
The submission focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices based on non-clinical testing and shared technological characteristics.
Here's a summary of the relevant information provided:
Device: Mitek RAPIDLOC-PDS Meniscal Repair System
Device Type: Biodegradable Fixation Fastener for meniscal repair.
Intended Use: Arthroscopic fixation of longitudinal vertical meniscus lesions (bucket-handle lesions) located in the vascularized area of the meniscus (red-red and red-white areas).
Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance:
Acceptance Criteria (Implied) | Reported Device Performance |
---|---|
Substantial equivalence to predicate devices (RAPIDLOC Meniscal Repair System and Mitek "H"-Fix Meniscal Fastener) | "Testing conducted to characterize performance of the RAPIDLOC-PDS Meniscal Repair System has demonstrated that it is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices and is suitable for the intended use specified." |
Similar technological characteristics, design, and configuration to predicate devices. | "The proposed device has similar technological characteristics and is similar in design and configuration compared to the predicate devices." |
Safety and performance acceptable for intended use. | "Based on 1) safety and performance data, and 2) similarities in design, operating principles, biocompatibility and sterilization method, The Mitek RAPIDLOC-PDS Meniscal Repair System has been shown to be substantially equivalent to predicate devices..." |
Study that Proves the Device Meets Acceptance Criteria:
A "Summary of Non-clinical Test" was conducted. The document states: "Testing conducted to characterize performance of the RAPIDLOC-PDS Meniscal Repair System has demonstrated that it is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices and is suitable for the intended use specified."
Regarding AI/Software Specific Questions:
- Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance: Not applicable, as this is a physical medical device, not an AI/software. No specific "test set" in the AI sense is mentioned.
- Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts: Not applicable.
- Adjudication method for the test set: Not applicable.
- 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.
- If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done: Not applicable.
- The type of ground truth used: Not applicable. The "ground truth" for a physical device like this would be its physical and mechanical properties, biocompatibility, and functional performance, which are assessed through non-clinical testing.
- The sample size for the training set: Not applicable.
- How the ground truth for the training set was established: Not applicable.
Clinical Data:
The document explicitly states: "Clinical Data: Not Applicable". This indicates that the device's substantial equivalence and suitability for its intended use were established through non-clinical testing and comparison to predicate devices, without requiring new human clinical trials for this 510(k) submission.
