The Head Bed™ infant positioner is indicated for infants aged 0-6 months to aid in the prevention of deformational plagiocephaly.
The Head Bed device is a U-shaped soft polyurethane foam cushion covered in flame retardant cloth material. Outside dimensions are 17.5cm (w) x 18.5cm (1) x 4cm (h). Inside dimensions are 13.5cm (h) x 6.5cm (w). The device is adequately soft so as to provide support for the infants head without being abrasive. The removable cloth cover is flame retardant and machine washable.
The provided text is a 510(k) summary for the "Head Bed™ Infant Sleep Positioner." This document establishes substantial equivalence to a predicate device, but it does not contain information about acceptance criteria or a study proving the device meets those criteria, nor does it include information about the performance claims (e.g., sensitivity, specificity, accuracy) that would be evaluated in such a study.
The document details the device description, intended use, and a comparison to a predicate device ("NightForm™ Infant Sleep Positioner"). It also includes the FDA's clearance letter.
Therefore, I cannot fulfill your request for:
- A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance: This information is not present in the provided text. The submission focuses on substantial equivalence based on design, materials, and intended use, not on specific performance metrics or clinical study results demonstrating efficacy or safety beyond the predicate.
- Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance: Not applicable as no performance study is described.
- Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts: Not applicable as no performance study is described.
- Adjudication method for the test set: Not applicable as no performance study is described.
- If a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, and the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance: Not applicable. This device is not an AI-assisted diagnostic tool; it's a physical infant positioner.
- If a standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done: Not applicable. This device is not an algorithm.
- The type of ground truth used: Not applicable as no performance study is described.
- The sample size for the training set: Not applicable as no performance study is described, and this is a physical device, not a machine learning model.
- How the ground truth for the training set was established: Not applicable as no performance study is described, and this is a physical device, not a machine learning model.
In summary, the provided 510(k) summary focuses on establishing substantial equivalence to a predicate device based on design, materials, and intended use, rather than presenting results from a performance study against specific acceptance criteria. Such a study would typically be required for devices making new performance claims or those classified differently.

Device Name and Classification:
| Common Name: | Infant Sleep Positioner |
|---|---|
| Classification Name: | Holder, Infant Position, Code FRP, CFR 880.5680 |
| Trade Name: | Head Bed™ |
| Class: | Class 1 |
Device Description:
The Head Bed device is a U-shaped soft polyurethane foam cushion covered in flame retardant cloth material. Outside dimensions are 17.5cm (w) x 18.5cm (1) x 4cm (h). Inside dimensions are 13.5cm (h) x 6.5cm (w). The device is adequately soft so as to provide support for the infants head without being abrasive. The removable cloth cover is flame retardant and machine washable.
Intended Use:
Deformational plagiocephaly is an abnormal flattening of the infant's head resulting from lying in one position. Some medical conditions predispose infants to this condition. Frequent changes in head position can help prevent or correct deformational plagiocephly. The Head Bed device is intended for use as an infant sleep positioner. The Head Bed device is used to position the head so as to aid in the prevention of deformational plagiocephaly. It is intended for use in infants less than 6 months of age or in those infants who cannot roll from back to front. The device is placed on the mattress, around the head to control head position. This selective positioning of the head allows some control over the forces that create flattening of the head.
Predicate Device:
The subject device is substantially equivalent to a predicate device NightForm Infant Sleep Positioner.

Dear Dr. Warnock:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (first the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices may keted in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the gremeral controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to such additional controls.
