    The Trocar Models: Auto-Locking Trocar, Bladeless Trocar and Visible Trocar, has application in a variety of endoscopic procedures to provide a port of entry for endoscopic instruments.

    Device Description

    The Auto-Locking Trocar has application in a variety of endoscopic procedures to provide a port of entry for endoscopic instruments. The Auto-Locking Trocar is available in three kinds of diameter sizes: 5mm, 10mm and 12mm. The cannula assembly has a universal seal, a valve, and a stopcock. This device has a bladed tip with an internal shield, which is designed to cover the cutting edges once the body cavity has been entered. Auto-Locking Trocar 10 mm can accept 4 mm to 11 mm sized instruments with its built-in universal seal without the use of a converter. Auto-Locking Trocar 12 mm can accept 4 mm to 13 mm sized instruments with its built-in universal seal without the use of a converter.

    The Bladeless Trocar has application in a variety of endoscopic procedures to provide a port of entry for endoscopic instruments. The Bladeless Trocar is available from 5-12mm: The cannula assembly (10mm to 12mm type) has a universal seal, a valve, and a stopcock. The cannula assembly (5mm type) has a stopcock.

    The Visible Trocar has application in a variety of endoscopic procedures to provide a port of entry for endoscopic instruments. This device has a blunt tip,, which is designed for open Laparoscopy. The visible trocar is available in three sizes: 5mm, 10mm and 12mm. This device allows direct visualization of the abdominal wall layers when the trocar is traversed, which offers a safe and rapid option of primary trocar. The cannula assembly has a universal seal, a valve and a stopcock.

    AI/ML Overview

    The provided document is a 510(k) summary for a medical device (Trocar), not a study proving an AI device meets acceptance criteria. It focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices based on design, intended use, and non-clinical performance testing. Therefore, it does not contain the information requested about acceptance criteria, test sets, expert involvement, and statistical analyses typical for AI/ML device validation studies.

    Specifically, the document does not provide information on:

    1. A table of acceptance criteria and reported device performance for an AI/ML device.
    2. Sample sizes for a test set (it mentions in-house non-clinical tests, but not a large-scale clinical test set for AI).
    3. Data provenance for a test set.
    4. Number of experts or their qualifications for establishing ground truth for a test set.
    5. Adjudication method for a test set.
    6. Multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study, nor the effect size of human readers improving with AI assistance.
    7. Standalone performance of an algorithm (as it's a physical device).
    8. Type of ground truth used (e.g., pathology, outcomes data).
    9. Sample size for a training set (not an AI/ML device).
    10. How ground truth for a training set was established.

    Instead, the document states:

    Acceptance Criteria & Device Performance (for the physical Trocar device):

    • Acceptance Criteria (Implied): The device is expected to meet various performance requirements related to its function, biocompatibility, and sterilization. Specifically, the document mentions:

      • Biocompatibility as per ISO 10993 standards (e.g., Cytotoxicity, Sensitization, Intracutaneous reactivity, Acute systemic toxicity, Material-Mediated Pyrogenicity).
      • Sterilization validation per ISO 11135:2014.
      • Specific performance aspects: Obturator Compatibility, Insertion & Cannula Stability, Air Leakage, Trocar Insertion/Removal force.
    • Reported Device Performance: The document states, "All the test results demonstrate Trocar meet the requirements of its pre-defined acceptance criteria and intended uses." However, it does not provide specific numerical or qualitative results for each criterion; rather, it makes a general statement of compliance.

    Study Proving Device Meets Acceptance Criteria:

    • Type of Study: Non-clinical testing (bench testing, biocompatibility testing, sterilization validation). This is conducted by the manufacturer, WickiMed (Huizhou) Medical Equipment Manufacturing Co., Ltd.
    • Sample Size Used for Test Set: Not specified. The document only mentions that "a series of tests were performed" and "The performance testing conducted on subject device is listed below." No quantitative sample sizes for these tests are provided.
    • Data Provenance: Implied to be in-house testing conducted by the manufacturer in China, as per their address. It's non-clinical, so "retrospective or prospective" is not directly applicable in the same way it would be for patient data.
    • Number of Experts/Qualifications & Adjudication Methods: Not applicable, as this is a physical medical device undergoing bench and biocompatibility testing, not an AI/ML assessment involving human interpretation of data.
    • MRMC Comparative Effectiveness Study/Standalone Performance: Not applicable for a physical surgical instrument.
    • Type of Ground Truth: The ground truth for this device's performance is objective measurements against established engineering specifications, biocompatibility standards (e.g., ISO 10993), and sterilization standards (e.g., ISO 11135).
    • Training Set/Ground Truth for Training Set: Not applicable, as this is not an AI/ML device.
