This is a medical device clearance, not an AI/ML device. Therefore, the questions regarding AI/ML device evaluations (sample size, experts, adjudication, MRMC, standalone performance, ground truth establishment for training set, etc.) are not applicable.
The document describes the acceptance criteria and study for a Tibial baseplate and Tibial insert, which are components of a knee replacement system. This is a traditional medical device, not an AI/ML powered device. Therefore, the concepts related to AI/ML device performance such as ground truth, expert adjudication, train/test sets, effect size of AI assistance, etc., are not relevant to this document.
However, I can extract the information provided regarding the device's performance analysis and acceptance criteria, based on the non-clinical tests conducted.
Here's the summary of the acceptance criteria and the study that proves the device meets them, based on the provided text:
1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance
The document does not explicitly list 'acceptance criteria' with numerical targets and then 'reported device performance' side-by-side in a table format. Instead, it states that "the following non-clinical tests were conducted to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the subjected device, and the test results indicated that this device is safe and effective." This implies that the device met the internal acceptance criteria for each test.
Acceptance Criteria Category (Implied) | Reported Device Performance (Implied by Conclusion) |
---|---|
Range of Motion | Met Safety and Effectiveness requirements |
Locking Strength of Tibial baseplate and Insert | Met Safety and Effectiveness requirements |
Contact Area and Contact Pressure | Met Safety and Effectiveness requirements |
Wear Simulation Test | Met Safety and Effectiveness requirements |
Fatigue Test of Tibial baseplate | Met Safety and Effectiveness requirements |
Spine Fatigue Test of Tibial insert | Met Safety and Effectiveness requirements |
2. Sample sized used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective)
The document does not specify the sample sizes (number of devices tested) for the non-clinical tests. It also does not provide information about data provenance as these are laboratory-based mechanical tests, not clinical data sets.
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 is a mechanical device, not an AI/ML device requiring expert ground truth for image interpretation or diagnosis.
4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set
Not applicable. This is a mechanical device. Adjudication methods are relevant for subjective interpretations, typically in clinical studies or AI/ML ground truth establishment.
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 mechanical device, not an AI/ML device.
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done
Not applicable. This is a mechanical device, not an AI/ML device.
7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.)
Not applicable. For mechanical devices, "ground truth" is typically defined by engineering specifications, material properties, and mechanical test standards (e.g., ISO or ASTM standards) that define acceptable performance limits. The document states that the "non-clinical tests were conducted to evaluate the safety and effectiveness," implying adherence to established engineering and material science principles, but specific ground truth definition is not explicitly detailed in this summary.
8. The sample size for the training set
Not applicable. This is a mechanical device, not an AI/ML device that requires a training set.
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established
Not applicable. This is a mechanical device, not an AI/ML device.

The U2 Total Knee system is indicated in knee arthroplasty for reduction or relief of pain and/or improved knee function in skeletally mature patients with severe knee pain and disability due to rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, primary and secondary traumatic arthritis, polyarthritis, collagen disorders, avascular necrosis of the femoral condyle or pseudogout, posttraumatic loss of joint configuration, particularly when there is patellofemoral erosion, dysfunction or prior patellectomy, moderate valgus, varus, or flexion deformities. This device may also be indicated in the salvage of previously failed surgical attempts if the knee can be satisfactorily balanced and stabilized at the time of surgery. This device is a single use implant and intended for cemented use only.
This subjected device includes femoral component, tibial insert, XPE tibial insert and ultracongruent insert. It is a size extension to the cleared "UNITED" U2 Total Knee System (K051640, K120507, K131864, K103733, K132752, and K140073). The indications, materials, design of this subject device are identical to the cleared "UNITED" U2 Total Knee System except for its dimension.
The provided text is a 510(k) summary for the U2 Total Knee System-Additional Sizes. This document outlines the regulatory filing for a medical device and typically focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device, rather than presenting a detailed study proving the device meets specific performance acceptance criteria in terms of AI/software performance.
Therefore, many of the requested categories related to AI/software performance, such as sample size for test sets, expert ground truth, adjudication methods, MRMC studies, standalone performance, and training set details, are not applicable to this type of regulatory submission for a physical knee implant.
However, I can extract information related to the device's non-clinical performance and its comparison to a predicate device, as that is the focus of this document.
Here's the breakdown of the information that can be extracted, and where applicable, a note on why certain information is not present:
1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance
The document does not explicitly state quantitative "acceptance criteria" for the non-clinical tests in the usual sense of a specific pass/fail threshold with reported numerical performance values against those thresholds. Instead, it states that the tests "demonstrated that this device is safe and effective." The demonstration of safety and effectiveness relies on the device having the "same basic design, intended use, materials and the same manufacturing method" as predicate devices, with the only difference being "dimension." The non-clinical tests listed below were performed to confirm performance characteristics.
Test Performed | Reported Device Performance |
---|---|
Range of Motion | "demonstrated that this device is safe and effective" |
Contact Area and Contact Pressure on Femorotibial Joint | "demonstrated that this device is safe and effective" |
Contact Area and Contact Pressure on Femoropatellar Joint | "demonstrated that this device is safe and effective" |
Constraint of Femorotibial Joint | "demonstrated that this device is safe and effective" |
Fatigue Compression Test of Femoral Component | "demonstrated that this device is safe and effective" |
Locking Strength of Tibial Insert | "demonstrated that this device is safe and effective" |
Fatigue Performance of Tibial Insert Spine | "demonstrated that this device is safe and effective" |
Materials Properties of U2 XPE Tibial Insert | "demonstrated that this device is safe and effective" |
Note: The document confirms these tests were conducted "in accordance with the Agency's, 'Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Knee Joint Patellofemorotibial and Femorotibial Metal/Polymer Porous-Coated Uncemented Prostheses; Guidance for Industry and FDA'." This implies that the tests were designed and evaluated against established industry and regulatory standards, which serve as the implicit "acceptance criteria." However, the exact numerical criteria and specific results are not detailed in this summary.
2. Sample sizes used for the test set and the data provenance: Not applicable. This document describes physical device testing, not AI/software performance evaluation with a "test set" in the computational sense. The "tests" refer to laboratory-based mechanical and materials evaluations.
3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts: Not applicable. No "ground truth" establishment by experts in the context of image analysis or diagnostic AI is mentioned. Evaluations are based on engineering principles and test results.
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 is a physical prosthetic device, not an AI software.
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done: Not applicable.
7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc): Not applicable in the context of conventional AI/software ground truth. The "truth" for this device lies in its compliance with engineering standards, material properties, and mechanical performance under simulated physiological conditions, benchmarked against predicate devices.
8. The sample size for the training set: Not applicable. This is not an AI/machine learning device.
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established: Not applicable.
Summary of the Study that Proves the Device Meets Acceptance Criteria (as described in the document):
The "study" refers to a series of non-clinical performance tests conducted on the U2 Total Knee System-Additional Sizes. The summary states these tests were performed "in accordance with the Agency's, 'Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Knee Joint Patellofemorotibial and Femorotibial Metal/Polymer Porous-Coated Uncemented Prostheses; Guidance for Industry and FDA'".
The key premise for demonstrating safety and effectiveness and meeting acceptance criteria, as per this 510(k) summary, is substantial equivalence to several predicate devices (e.g., "UNITED" U2 Total Knee System K051640). The document explicitly states:
- "U2 Total Knee System, Additional Sizes has the same basic design, intended use, materials and the same manufacturing method as device of the 'United' U2 Total Knee System..."
- "The only difference between the cleared and subjected device is dimension."
The non-clinical tests listed above (Range of Motion, Contact Area and Pressure, Constraint, Fatigue Compression, Locking Strength, Fatigue Performance of Insert Spine, Material Properties) were performed to confirm that, despite the dimensional differences, the additional sizes maintain the same performance characteristics as the predicate devices, thereby ensuring safety and effectiveness. The conclusion provided is that "the test results demonstrated that this device is safe and effective."
Clinical Performance Data:
The document explicitly states: "None provided as a basis for substantial equivalence." This reinforces that the substantial equivalence determination for this submission relies entirely on non-clinical data and comparison to predicate devices, rather than new clinical trials for the specific additional sizes.

This device is indicated in knee arthroplasty in skeletally mature patients with severe knee pain and disability due to rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, primary and secondary traumatic arthritis, polyarthritis, collagen disorders, avascular necrosis of the femoral condyle or pseudogout, posttraumatic loss of joint configuration, particularly when there is patellofemoral erosion, dysfunction or prior patellectomy, moderate valgus, varus, or flexion contraction. This device is intended for use in patients who require augmentation and/or stem extensions due to inadequate bone stock and/or require increased stabilization for tibiofemoral joint due to soft tissue imbalance. The femoral and tibial augments are to be attached to their respective components with a fixation screw or screws. Note: In the US, this device is for cemented use only.
"UNITED" Augment and Screw - PSA Type, including femoral augments - distal only and tibial augments, is an extension of cleared "UNITED" U2 Total Knee System -PSA Type (K082424). The raw materials, safety and effectiveness of this subject device are identical to the "UNITED" U2 Total Knee System - PSA Type (K082424), except for increasing their thickness and modifying the shape to mimic anatomy. Femoral augment - distal only made of Co-Cr-Mo alloy (ASTM F75 or ASTM F1537) are available in 12 mm and 16 mm thickness and can be positioned on either side of femoral component. This component is only available distally. Tibial augments are made of Ti-6Al-4V alloy (ASTM F136/ISO 5832-3) and with 15 mm thickness. The periphery of the distal end of tibial augments is larger than that of the proximal end. It is left/right specific. The femoral augments and tibial augments are sized to match the femoral components and tibial base plates, respectively. There are 6 sizes (sizes #1 through 6) to match the corresponding augmentable femoral components - PSA type and tibial baseplates - PSA type (K082424). The augments are affixed to the tibial and femoral components with screw fixation and that the implant construct as a whole is to be fixed with cement. This device should not be used with another manufacturer's total knee systems since dimensional compatibility cannot be assured. It also should not be used with U2 Total Knee System - PS Type and CR Type. For total knee replacement, "UNITED" patella components (K021657, K051640, K082469, and K103733) are intended to be used with U2 Total Knee System - PSA Type (K082424) and the subject device.
The provided text is a 510(k) summary for the "Augment and Screw, PSA Type" knee system. This document focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices, primarily through engineering and manufacturing comparisons rather than clinical performance data typical of AI/ML devices. Therefore, many of the requested fields are not applicable to this type of submission.
Here's an analysis of the provided information relative to your request:
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance
Acceptance Criteria | Reported Device Performance |
---|---|
Locking Strength between femoral component and femoral augment | Demonstrated substantial equivalence to predicate device. |
Locking Strength between tibial baseplate and tibial augment | Demonstrated substantial equivalence to predicate device. |
Explanation: The document states, "The locking strength evaluation between femoral component and femoral augment, as well as tibial baseplate and tibial augment completed as part of the design assurance process, demonstrated that this device is substantially equivalent to the predicate device." Acceptance criteria for "locking strength" are not explicitly quantified (e.g., minimum Newtons of force, cycles endured), but the conclusion is that the new device performs equivalently to established predicate devices.
2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance:
- Sample Size: Not explicitly stated. The performance data section refers to "locking strength evaluation," implying mechanical testing rather than a clinical dataset. The number of samples tested for this evaluation is not provided.
- Data Provenance: Not applicable in the traditional sense of clinical data. This is a mechanical engineering evaluation of a physical device.
3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts:
- Not Applicable. Ground truth, in the context of AI/ML, refers to human annotations or confirmed diagnoses used for model training and validation. For this mechanical device, "ground truth" would be the measured physical properties during testing, likely assessed against engineering specifications by qualified engineers or technicians, though their qualifications are not detailed.
4. Adjudication method (e.g., 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set:
- Not Applicable. Adjudication methods are typically used to resolve discrepancies among expert opinions in clinical ground truth establishment. This document describes mechanical 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 is a hardware device (knee augment and screw) and not an AI/ML-driven device that assists human readers. Therefore, an MRMC study is not relevant to this submission.
6. If a standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done:
- No. This is a hardware device. "Standalone performance" in the context of AI/ML refers to the algorithm's performance without human intervention. This concept does not apply here.
7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.):
- Mechanical Test Results/Engineering Specifications. The "ground truth" for this device's performance would be the direct measurements from mechanical tests (e.g., force required for failure, displacement under load) compared against established engineering standards or the performance of predicate devices.
8. The sample size for the training set:
- Not Applicable. There is no "training set" in the context of an AI/ML model for this hardware device. The device's design is based on engineering principles and iterative design assurance processes, not machine learning.
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established:
- Not Applicable. See point 8.
