The Genostis Osteosynthesis System comprises of fracture fixation plates, corresponding screws and required surgical instruments. Different shapes and sizes are available to accommodate for different anatomical regions and locations of fractures. The plate screw interface is either locking, non-locking or, for some plates, realized by a combination hole offering both options (locking and non-locking).
All plates and screws are made of titanium alloy (Ti 6Al 4V ELI) according to ASTM F136 and ISO 5832-3.
The implants of the Genostis Osteosynthesis System are sterilized by radiation and are delivered sterile.
The provided FDA 510(k) clearance letter for the Genostis Osteosynthesis System does not describe a study involving an AI/software device or human readers. Instead, it describes a traditional medical device (bone fixation plates and screws) and primarily references non-clinical (biomechanical and biocompatibility) testing to demonstrate substantial equivalence to predicate devices.
Therefore, many of the requested criteria related to AI/software performance, human reader studies, and ground truth establishment in a diagnostic context are not applicable to this document.
However, I can extract and structure the information that is relevant to the device's acceptance criteria based on the provided text, particularly concerning non-clinical testing.
Here's the breakdown based on the information available:
Acceptance Criteria and Study for Genostis Osteosynthesis System
The Genostis Osteosynthesis System is a traditional medical device (bone fixation plates and screws), not an AI/software diagnostic device. As such, the "acceptance criteria" and "study" proving it meets them are primarily based on non-clinical engineering and biological tests, not AI performance metrics or human-in-the-loop diagnostic studies.

Note: The document states "All results were satisfactory" for all tests, indicating the device met the pre-defined acceptance criteria for each test.
2. Sample Sizes Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance
- Sample Size: The document does not specify the exact number of units or samples used for each biomechanical or biocompatibility test. It generally states that testing was "performed" and "conducted on final sterile product."
- Data Provenance: Not explicitly stated as "country of origin," but testing would be performed in a controlled laboratory environment. The tests are non-clinical (biomechanical and biocompatibility), not data from patients. The study is by nature prospective in that new manufactured devices were tested to meet the standards, not a retrospective analysis of existing data.
3. Number of Experts Used to Establish Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications
- Not Applicable. This is a medical device (hardware) clearance, not an AI/software diagnostic device that requires expert ground truth for interpretation of medical images or other diagnostic data. The "ground truth" here is the adherence to established engineering and biocompatibility standards.
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set
- Not Applicable. As this is non-clinical mechanical and biocompatibility testing, there is no "adjudication" in the sense of reconciling expert opinions on diagnostic findings. The results are quantitative and objective measurements against established standard thresholds.
5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study Was Done
- Not Applicable. MRMC studies are for evaluating clinical interpretation of diagnostic results, typically with AI assistance. This device is a physical implant, not a diagnostic tool or AI.
6. If a Standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) Was Done
- Not Applicable. This pertains to AI algorithm performance. The device is a bone fixation system and does not rely on an algorithm for its primary function.
7. The Type of Ground Truth Used
- Pre-defined Standards and Controls: The "ground truth" for this device's performance is established by well-defined, internationally recognized (ISO) and American (ASTM) standards for material properties, mechanical strength, and biocompatibility. The device must perform within the specified parameters of these standards. For example, screws must meet certain torque resistance (ASTM F543), and plates must meet specific load-sharing characteristics (ASTM F382).
8. The Sample Size for the Training Set
- Not Applicable. This device does not involve a "training set" in the context of machine learning or AI.
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established
- Not Applicable. There is no "training set" for this type of medical device clearance. The design and manufacturing processes are established based on engineering principles and existing predicate device designs, with performance validated against the standards mentioned above.

The testing involves mechanical specimens (e.g., plates and screws) tested according to the cited ASTM standards. The specific number of specimens tested for each standard is not detailed in this summary.
- Data Provenance: Not applicable as it's not a clinical or imaging study. The tests are mechanical and presumably 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. This is a submission for a bone fixation device, not a diagnostic device requiring expert interpretation for ground truth establishment. Mechanical testing relies on standardized methodologies, not expert consensus on clinical cases.
4. Adjudication method for the test set:
Not applicable for a mechanical 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 a medical device for bone fixation, not an AI or diagnostic tool.
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the loop performance) was done:
Not applicable. This is a medical device for bone fixation, not an algorithm.
7. The type of ground truth used:
The "ground truth" in this context is the established performance benchmarks defined by recognized industry standards (ASTM F382, ASTM F384, ASTM F543 for performance, and ASTM F136, ASTM F138, ASTM F139 for materials). The device is deemed acceptable if it conforms to these standards, indicating mechanical properties are comparable to legally marketed devices.
8. The sample size for the training set:
Not applicable. This is a mechanical device, not a machine learning model requiring a training set.
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established:
Not applicable, as there is no training set for this type of device submission. The "ground truth" for demonstrating substantial equivalence rests on adherence to material and performance standards, which are developed and accepted by the scientific and engineering community.

The PERI-LOC™ Bone Plating and Screw System can be used for adult and pediatric patients, as well as patients with osteopenic bone. PERI-LOC™ bone plates and screws are indicated for fixation of pelvic, small and long bone fractures, including those of the tibia, fibula, femur, pelvis, acetabulum, metacarpals, metatarsals, humerus, ulna, radius, calcaneus and clavicle.
The PERI-LOC™ Bone Plating and Screw System represents titanium versions of stainless steel PERI-LOC™ Periarticular Locked Plating System bone plates and bone screws previously cleared under K082516, K061352, K051735, and K033669. Like the predicate devices, the PERI-LOC™ Bone Plating and Screw System devices feature various lengths of straight and contoured locking bone plates: locking and non-locking bone screws, washers, plus a screw adapter accessory. Bone plates in the PER/-LOC™ Bone Plating and Screw System feature a screw to-plate locking feature, which forms a locked, fixed-angle construct to aid in maintaining fracture reduction.
The provided text is a 510(k) summary for the PERI-LOC™ Bone Plating and Screw System. It describes the device, its intended use, and its substantial equivalence to predicate devices. However, this document does not contain information about acceptance criteria or a study that proves the device meets specific performance criteria.
The 510(k) pathway is primarily focused on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device, rather than requiring new clinical studies to prove performance against specific acceptance criteria like those outlined in your request. While the device's technological characteristics are mentioned as being similar to predicate devices, there's no discussion of quantitative performance metrics, study designs, sample sizes, or ground truth establishment.
Therefore, I cannot populate the table or answer most of your detailed questions based solely on the provided text. The document focuses on regulatory approval through substantial equivalence, not on a detailed performance study with defined acceptance criteria.
Here's what I can infer or explicitly state based on the provided text:
1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance
Acceptance Criteria | Reported Device Performance |
---|---|
Not specified in the document. The 510(k) primarily focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices, rather than establishing new performance acceptance criteria for a novel device. | Not specified in the document. The document states that the new device has "similar technological characteristics" and "similarities in design features and overall indications for use" to predicate devices, implying comparable performance without providing specific metrics. |
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 and not mentioned in the document. The 510(k) submission does not describe a performance test set.
- Data provenance: Not applicable. No performance data is presented.
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. The document does not describe a study involving ground truth establishment by experts.
4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set
- Not applicable. No test set or adjudication process 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
- Not applicable. This device is a bone plating and screw system, not an AI-based diagnostic tool for which MRMC studies are typically performed.
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the loop performance) was done
- Not applicable. This device is a mechanical implant, not an algorithm.
7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc)
- Not applicable. The document does not reference performance studies that would require ground truth. The substantial equivalence argument relies on the established safety and effectiveness of predicate devices.
8. The sample size for the training set
- Not applicable. This submission doesn't describe an algorithm or a training set.
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established
- Not applicable. This submission doesn't describe an algorithm or a training set.
Summary of what the document does communicate regarding evidence for substantial equivalence:
The "study" referenced in a 510(k) context is often the comparison to legally marketed predicate devices. The device's safety and effectiveness are supported by demonstrating that it has:
- Similar intended use.
- Similar technological characteristics (e.g., made of titanium like some predicate devices, screw-to-plate locking feature).
- No new questions of safety or effectiveness compared to those predicates.
The acceptance criteria for a 510(k) largely revolve around demonstrating this substantial equivalence, which is typically shown through engineering comparisons, material biocompatibility, and sometimes mechanical testing (though specific results of such tests are not detailed in this summary). The document lists several predicate devices (K082516, K072818, K061352, K051735, K033669, K993106, K000682, K000684, K011815) to which the PERI-LOC™ Bone Plating and Screw System is compared. The "study" proving it meets acceptance criteria is the regulatory review finding of substantial equivalence based on the submitted documentation comparing the device to these predicates.
