I am sorry, but based on the provided text, I cannot provide details on the acceptance criteria and the study that proves the device meets those criteria. The document describes a 510(k) submission for a medical device (Gelbfish Flex Vascular Dilator) and its substantial equivalence to a predicate device.
The provided text focuses on:
- Device Identification: Proprietary and generic names, classification, product code, and intended use.
- Predicate Device: Identification of the predicate device.
- Comparison to Predicate Device: Highlights two differences: the shaft material (polyurethane vs. stainless steel) and the bonding method for the tip (medical grade adhesive vs. laser welding).
- Conclusion: States that the modified device is substantially equivalent to the predicate device and has no additional safety issues, based on physical properties, performance characteristics, and intended use.
- FDA Communication: The FDA's letter granting substantial equivalence based on the submitted information.
There is no information in the provided text regarding:
- A table of acceptance criteria or reported device performance.
- Sample sizes used for test sets or data provenance.
- Number of experts or their qualifications for establishing ground truth.
- Adjudication methods.
- Multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness studies.
- Standalone algorithm performance.
- The type of ground truth used.
- Sample size for the training set.
- How ground truth for the training set was established.
This type of information is typically detailed in the full 510(k) submission, specifically in sections related to performance testing and clinical data, which are not included in this summary. The current text primarily addresses the regulatory path for a modified device claiming substantial equivalence to an existing one.

11.5 Predicate Device
| 510(k) Number: | K012256 |
|---|---|
| Proprietary Name: | Gelbfish Vascular Dilators |
| Generic Name: | Dilator, Vessel, For Percuteneous Catheterization |
| Classification: | Class II |
| Relevant Section: | 870.1310 |
| Product Code: | DRE |
| Intended Use: | These devices are intended to be used over a guidewire todilate or calibrate blood vessels. |
11.6 Comparison to Predicate Device
-
- The original 510(k) on these dilators limited the shaft material to stainless steel. The modified device has a polyurethane shaft.
-
- The original device uses laser welding to bond the tip to the shaft. The modified device will use a medical grade adhesive to bond the tip to the shaft.
11.7 Conclusion
Comparison of the original device with the modified device for physical properties, performance characteristics and intended use, indicate that these devices are substantially equivalent and that there are no additional safety issues.
