Intended Use

The ITALITE tm Light Wand is indicated for illumination during joint examinations, arthroscopies, biopsies, in minimally invasive procedures of the knee, shoulder, temporal-mandibular joint, ankle, and elbow.

The ITALITE tm Light Wand is disposable, single use and is intended to be discarded after the procedure. It is supplied clean but not sterile and must be sterilized before use.

The ITALITE tm is for illumination only and is not indicated for viewing. It is to be used by physicians only.

Device Description

The ITALITE tm models of Light Wands range in size as follows:

MODELLENGTHDIAMETER
650-3.1650 mm3.1 mm
600-3.1600 mm3.1 mm
550-3.1550 mm3.1 mm
500-3.1500 mm3.1 mm
450-2.0450 mm2.0 mm
400-2.0400 mm2.0 mm

The ITALITE tm series of Light Wands are semi rigid type devices which are intended for illumination during joint examinations, biopsies, in minimally invasive procedures of the knee, shoulder, temporal mandibular joint, ankle, and elbow.

The device consists of a thin walled stainless steel tube (either 3.1 mm or 2.0 mm) varying in length from 400 to 650 mm depending on the model number as above. 50 micron glass fibers fill the inner diameter of the tube. At the proximal end the fibers are sealed with epoxy and polished. They are terminated in a light pipe connector compatible with off the shelf light sources such as those manufactured by ACMI, Wolff, Stortz, and Olympus. A stainless steel knob at the proximal end facilitates the direction and placement of the Light Wand.

The distal end of the Light Wand has a window perpendicular to the shaft where the fibers terminate. They are epoxied and polished to form a window perpendicular to the shaft. Hence the light is directed perpendicular to the shaft and provides illumination in that direction instead of head on from the end of the Light Wand.

AI/ML Overview

Here's an analysis of the provided text regarding the acceptance criteria and study for the ITALITE™ Light Wand, structured to answer your questions:

Acceptance Criteria and Study for ITALITE™ Light Wand

1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance

Based on the provided K070021 510(k) summary, formal, quantitative acceptance criteria and specific reported device performance values (e.g., lumens, wavelength, beam uniformity) are not explicitly detailed. The device's performance is primarily validated through demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices and adherence to general safety and quality standards.

The closest stated "acceptance criteria" are implied by the device's design and materials, and adherence to relevant standards.

Acceptance Criteria (Implied)Reported Device Performance
Functional Specifications:Device met all functional specifications. (Statement from "Performance tests designed to ensure that the device met all of its functional specifications.")
Safety Compliance:Device complies with applicable industry and safety standards. (Statement from "Safety tests have been performed to ensure the device complies with applicable industry and safety standards.")
Biocompatibility:Constructed of materials of the same specifications as predicate devices to ensure biocompatibility. (Statement from "The ITALITE™ series of Light Wands are constructed of materials of the same specifications as the predicate devices to ensure biocompatibility.")
Sterilization Efficacy:Ability to sterilize the device has been confirmed by the recommended sterilization validation protocol. (Statement from "The ability to sterilize the device has been confirmed by the recommended sterilization validation protocol.")
Adherence to Standards:Designed to meet applicable portions of IEC60601-2-18 and Manufacturing under an approved Quality System. Conforms to applicable ISO standards. (Statements from "PERFORMANCE STANDARDS" and "The ITALITE™ Light Wands conforms to applicable ISO standards.")
Safety and Effectiveness:Shown to be safe and effective (by meeting functional specifications, safety compliance, and providing clear labeling). (Statement from "It has therefore shown to be safe and effective.")
Substantial Equivalence:Substantially equivalent in safety and efficacy to predicate devices. (Conclusion stated.)

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 a sample size for a test set, nor does it provide details on data provenance (country of origin, retrospective or prospective). The submitted information focuses on design characteristics, material equivalence, and adherence to general standards rather than a specific clinical or performance evaluation with a dedicated test set.

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)

This information is not provided in the document. As the submission relies on substantial equivalence and compliance with general safety standards, there is no mention of a formal test set requiring expert-established ground truth.

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

This information is not provided in the document, as there is no described test set requiring a ground truth adjudication process.

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

A multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was not done and is not applicable to this device. The ITALITE™ Light Wand is an illumination device without any AI components or human-in-the-loop performance measurement.

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

A standalone performance study (algorithm only) was not done and is not applicable to this device, as it does not contain any algorithms or software. The device itself is a physical light wand.

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

The concept of "ground truth" as typically applied to diagnostic or AI devices is not directly relevant or mentioned for the ITALITE™ Light Wand. Its validation is based on:

  • Material Equivalence: To predicate devices.
  • Functional Testing: To ensure it meets its own specifications (not defined in detail).
  • Safety Testing: To confirm compliance with standards.
  • Sterilization Validation: Confirmation of protocol.

There are no diagnostic claims or parameters that would require a ground truth derived from expert consensus, pathology, or outcomes data.

8. The sample size for the training set

This information is not applicable and not provided. The ITALITE™ Light Wand is a passive medical device without any software or AI components that would require a training set.

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

This information is not applicable and not provided, as there is no training set for this device.

  1. Substantially Equivalent Devices

JG Medical Products LLC believes that the ITALITE tm light wand Models 500-3.1; 550-3.1; 600-3.1; 650-3.1; 450-2.0; 400-2.0 is substantially equivalent to the following cleared devices:

Trade or Proprietary NameManufacturer510(k) Number
Medscope 4mm ArthroscopeMedscope Corp.K894303
ASAP ArthroscopeASAP Endoscopic ProductsK031972

All of the above predicate Arthroscopes have two fiber optic channels, one for viewing and one for illuminating the subject field. The ITALITE tm light wand models above are made of similar materials, fibers, and epoxies.to the predicate devices above. In fact the ITALITE tm light wand uses exactly the same materials and construction methods as the Medscope 4mm Arthroscope K894303, However the ITALITE tm light wand Models have only an illumination channel and are not used for viewing. Illumination is perpendicular to the shaft. Substantial equivalence is claimed for the indications for use for this application.
