    Intended Use

    The Headway Microcatheter is intended for general intravascular use, including the peripheral, coronary and neuro vasculature for the infusion of diagnostic agents, such as contrast media, and therapeutic agents, such as occlusion coils.

    Device Description

    The Headway 27 Microcatheter is a single lumen catheter designed to be introduced over a steerable guidewire to access small, tortuous vasculature. The semi-rigid proximal section transitions to a flexible distal tip to facilitate advancement through vessels. Dual radiopaque markers at the distal end facilitate fluoroscopic visualization. An introducer sheath and shaping mandrel are also provided.

    AI/ML Overview

    The provided text describes the MicroVention, Inc. Headway 27 Microcatheter and its substantial equivalence to a predicate device (Headway 27 Microcatheter, K110813). The document primarily focuses on bench testing and biocompatibility testing to demonstrate this equivalence.

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

    The document describes general bench testing and biocompatibility testing. It does not specify the sample sizes (number of units tested) for each individual bench test or the biocompatibility studies.

    The data provenance is not explicitly stated as retrospective or prospective, nor does it mention the country of origin of the data. Given the context of a 510(k) submission, this data would typically be generated by the manufacturer (MicroVention, Inc., USA) as part of their device development and validation process, likely in a controlled laboratory environment.

    3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts:

    This information is not provided in the document. The studies performed are primarily physical and chemical bench tests, and in vitro and in vivo biocompatibility tests, which do not typically involve human expert interpretation for "ground truth" establishment in the way, for example, a diagnostic image review would. For "rated 3 or higher," "passed," etc., these would be based on predefined objective criteria in test protocols, not subjective expert consensus.

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

    This information is not applicable and not provided in the document. Adjudication methods are typically used in studies involving human interpretation or decision-making, such as clinical trials or diagnostic accuracy studies, to resolve discrepancies among multiple reviewers. The tests described are objective, physical, chemical, and biological assessments.

    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:

    This is not applicable and not provided. The device in question is a microcatheter, a physical medical device used for intravascular delivery. It is not an AI-powered diagnostic or assistive technology that would involve "human readers" or "AI assistance" in the sense of an MRMC study.

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

    This is not applicable and not provided for the same reasons as point 5. The device is a physical tool, not an algorithm.

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

    The "ground truth" for the bench tests are the pre-defined engineering specifications and performance criteria for the physical properties of the catheter (e.g., length, diameter, burst pressure, kink resistance, force at break). For the biocompatibility tests, the "ground truth" is established by standardized ISO 10993 biological evaluation test methods which define acceptable biological responses (e.g., non-toxic, non-irritant, non-hemolytic).

    8. The sample size for the training set:

    There is no mention of a "training set." This concept is relevant to machine learning or AI algorithms. The Headway 27 Microcatheter is a physical medical device, and its development and testing involve traditional engineering and biological validation, not machine learning model training.

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

    This is not applicable as there is no training set for this device.
