2. Sample Sizes and Data Provenance
- Test Set (Simulated-Use): Triplicate trials for the Mycobacterium terrae reduction study, using "selected clinically relevant flexible endoscopes and their accessories." The document states these "represented the range of most challenging devices, accessories, and processing situations." No specific number of endoscopes or accessories is provided beyond "selected."
- Test Set (In-Use): Three flexible endoscopes were used, representing the range of types indicated in the product labeling. Triplicate evaluations were performed for each endoscope.
- Test Set (Material Compatibility): "300 processing cycles" were performed on medical devices, including flexible endoscopes and/or common materials of device construction.
- Data Provenance:
- The "In-Use" study was conducted in a "US hospital."
- Other studies (Sporicidal, Tuberculocidal, Virucidal, Bactericidal, Fungicidal, Simulated-Use, Biocompatibility, Material Compatibility, Stability) appear to be laboratory-based studies.
- All data are prospective as they are part of a premarket notification for a new device.
3. Number of Experts and Qualifications
The document does not specify the number or qualifications of experts used to establish ground truth for any of the described tests. The studies rely on established microbiological test methods (e.g., AOAC) and standard laboratory and in-use protocols rather than expert consensus on diagnostic imaging or similar subjective assessments.
4. Adjudication Method
Adjudication methods (like 2+1 or 3+1 for resolving discrepancies) are typically used in studies involving human interpretation or subjective assessment where a "ground truth" needs to be established from multiple readers. This document describes performance testing of a physical device and chemical efficacy, which relies on objective measurements (e.g., bacterial reduction, presence of residues, visual cleanliness, functional integrity) rather than subjective human interpretation. Therefore, no adjudication method as typically described in imaging studies was used or mentioned.
5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study
No, a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was not done. The document is for an automated endoscope processing system, which does not involve human readers interpreting cases or images.
6. Standalone (Algorithm Only) Performance Study
The entire document describes the standalone performance of the "Reliance Endoscope Processing System," which is an automated device performing the washing and high-level disinfection process. All the performance figures reported (microbiological efficacy, cleaning efficacy, cycle performance, material compatibility) characterize the device's inherent capabilities without human intervention during the defined processing cycle (though human manual pre-cleaning and loading/unloading are explicit parts of the overall process).
7. Type of Ground Truth Used
The ground truth for the various tests was established using:
- Microbiological assays: For sporicidal, tuberculocidal, virucidal, bactericidal, fungicidal, and Mycobacterium terrae reduction (quantitative measures of organism reduction/kill).
- Visual inspection and quantitative protein assays: For cleaning efficacy (visual cleanliness and µg/cm² protein).
- Chemical analysis and cytotoxicity testing: For residue levels and biocompatibility.
- Functional and visual inspection after repeated cycles: For material compatibility.
- Analytical measurements: For critical process parameters (temperature, volume, pressure, etc.) and germicide stability.
- Clinical observation/microbiological cultures: For the in-use study (recovery of organisms).
- Standardized electrical tests: For electrical standards compliance.
8. Sample Size for the Training Set
The document focuses on validation studies, not on the development of a machine learning algorithm that would require a distinct "training set." Therefore, no training set sample size is applicable or mentioned. The device's operational parameters and design would have been developed iteratively, but not through a formal "training set" in the context of AI/ML.
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established
As there is no training set for an AI/ML algorithm involved, the question of how its ground truth was established is not applicable.

Reliance Endoscope Processing System K040049
3. Description of Device
The Reliance Endoscope Processing System is an economical, easy-to-use high level disinfection system intended to wash and high level disinfect up to two manually cleaned, immersible, reusable, heat-sensitive, semi-critical devices such as GI flexible endoscopes and related accessories.
The system utilizes Reliance™ DG Dry Germicide, a proprietary, safe, and dry peracetic acid generating oxidative chemistry. The Reliance Endoscope Processing System was designed to be versatile in meeting the growing demands of the modern flexible endoscope processing department, while offering the highest level of patient and staff safety. The Reliance Endoscope Processing System is a combination of products that are used to wash and high level disinfect flexible endoscopes and their accessories.
- The Reliance Endoscope Processor is an electromechanical washer/high level . disinfector with a microprocessor-based controller that provides for automated endoscope processing cycles and processor self-decontamination cycles.
- . Reliance DG Dry Germicide is a proprietary, two-part, dry, single-use oxidative chemistry, designed to generate the high level disinfection solution upon automatic dilution in water within the Reliance Endoscope Processor.
- Optional washing is provided through the automated delivery of Klenzyme . Enzymatic Presoak and Cleaner during the wash phase of the cycle.
- CIP 200 Acid-Based Process and Research Cleaner, a general cleaning agent, . is used in one of the two self-decontamination cycles provided by the processor.
- Various accessories are available to accommodate the processing needs of . specific endoscopes and endoscopic accessories.
- Verify Reliance CI Process Indicator is available to monitor for the presence . of the Reliance DG active ingredient, peracetic acid.
{2}------------------------------------------------
The Reliance Endoscope Processing Cycle has the following features:
-
The first part of this cycle is an optional programmable washing phase. This phase consists of a wash that uses Klenzyme, followed by a rinse. The washing phase can be programmed on or off. In the "on" mode, the user can choose either one or two washing phases per processing cycle, and the wash time can be adjusted to be between 5 and 10 minutes. The Reliance cleaning phase does not replace manual cleaning by the user.
K102244 -
=> The second part is a high level disinfection phase that is non-optional and the parameters cannot be changed by the user. In this phase, the proprietary Reliance DG components, provided in a single use container, are dissolved with water at ~50°C for four minutes of generation time and circulated throughout the processor and through device lumens for 6 minutes of high level disinfection solution exposure time.
-
Following the high level disinfection phase, the Reliance Endoscope Processor removes the high level disinfection solution through a rinse phase which is non-optional and the parameters cannot be changed by the user. The processor filters the rinse water (as well as all of the water used throughout the cycle) through a 0.2 micron bacterial-retentive filter. It also incorporates an automatic internal integrity check of this filter at the end of each processing cycle. If the integrity check fails, an alarm alerts the user, and the processor does not complete the cycle.
-
The last step in the processing cycle is an air purge phase using HEPAfiltered air. The air purge helps to remove excess rinse water from the processed devices. The final air purge is preset to run for 4 minutes; additional air purge time may be selected by the operator.
-
The processor will print a detailed cycle summary at the end of each cycle that includes information such as processor number, cycle date, start and stop times, as well as phase parameters. With an optional bar code reader, the printouts can also include identification numbers for the operator, patient, device, doctor and procedure.
The processor features two decontamination cycles that are to be used without endoscopes in the processor:
-
The first, called D-SHORT, consists of hot water circulating through the processor for 10 minutes, followed by a 10-minute hot air purge. This cycle is to be run every 54 hours. D-SHORT is intended to prevent biofilm from forming.
-
The second, called D-LONG, consists of a cycle in which CIP 200 Acid-Based Process and Research Cleaner is added to hot water. The cleaning solution is then circulated through the processor for 20 minutes; this is followed by three rinses to remove the solution from the processor and a 10minute hot air purge. D-LONG is to be used on those occasions when the D-SHORT cycle has not been run within the past 54 hours.

4. Intended Use
The Reliance Endoscope Processing System is intended for washing and high level disinfection of up to two manually cleaned, immersible, reusable, heat-sensitive, semi-critical devices such as GI flexible endoscopes, bronchoscopes and their accessories. High level disinfection is achieved within the 50 - 57°C HLD Phase of the Endoscope Processing Cycle (4 minute generation sequence followed by a 6minute exposure sequence).
5. Description of Safety and Substantial Equivalence
The Reliance Endoscope Processing System has the same technological characteristics as the predicate device.
A summary of performance testing applicable to both the proposed Reliance Endoscope Processing System and its predicate Reliance Endoscope Processing System is provided in the Table attached.
{4}------------------------------------------------
The Reliance Endoscope Processing System was developed and validated in accord with two primary FDA Guidance documents: Content and Format of Premarket Notification [510(k)] Submissions for Liquid Chemical Sterilants/High Level Disinfectants (2000), and · Guidance on Premarket Notification [510(k)] Submissions for Automated Endoscope Washers (1993). A summary of this testing follows: · Reliance DG Dry Germicide Efficacy: Reliance DG Dry Germicide was tested and shown to generate an effective high level disinfection solution using the standard array of microbiological tests for germicidal efficacy. The following testing was performed at conditions of use that were worst case with respect to contact time, circulation, water hardness, temperature, artificial soiling, and germicide concentration (at or below the minimum effective dose of 9000 mg/L PAA minutes): Sporicidal: Reliance DG Dry Germicide was proven to be sporicidal as defined by AOAC Sporicidal Activity Test with an in situ exposure time of 6 minutes. Confirmatory testing was completed successfully and supplemental confirmatory testing was completed in the Reliance Endoscope Processor. Potency was subsequently confirmed in the processor using Reliance DG Dry Germicide containers that were aged beyond the end of its shelf life. > Tuberculocidal: Reliance DG Dry Germicide was proven to be tuberculocidal as defined by the AOAC Tuberculocidal Activity Test on-clir with an exposure time of 6 minutes. Potency was subsequently confirmed using Reliance DG Dry Germicide aged beyond the end of its shelf life. > Virucidal: The Reliance Process was proven to reduce the viable population of poliovirus Type 1, adenovirus Type 5, and herpes simplex virus Type 1 by > 4 log10-> Bactericidal: Reliance DG Dry Germicide was proven to be bactericidal as defined by the AOAC Bactericidal Activity Test with an exposure time of 6 minutes at worst case conditions, whether performed in situ or in vitro. > Fungicidal: Reliance DG Dry Germicide was proven to be fungicidal as defined by the AQAC Fungicidal Activity Test with an exposure time of 6 minutes, whether performed in situ or in vitro. Simulated-Use: Reliance DG Dry Germicide, at the minimum recommended dose, reproducibly achieved greater than a 6 log10 reduction of Mycobacterium terrae in triplicate trials within the Reliance Endoscope Processor for selected clinically relevant flexible endoscopes and their accessories. The test articles represented the range of most challenging devices, accessories, and processing situations. In-Use: Reliance Endoscope Processing System was evaluated in an in use study in a US hospital. Three flexible endoscopes representing the range of types indicated in the product labeling were used in clinical procedures and processed according to instructions for use. In triplicate evaluations of each endoscope, no organisms were recovered after processing. Bioburden levels on the clinically used endoscopes after manual cleaning and before high level disinfection were determined to be as high as 105 CFU/device.

Non-clinica Germicide Biocompatibili Material Compatibility
Biocompatibility:
The Reliance chemical formulations, as supplied in packaging as well as in use dilutions, can be safely handled and used by customers. Residues that may remain on medical endoscopes and accessories are below established residue limits and do not pose a risk to patients. Safety statements in product labeling are appropriate to the potential risk.
56077
- Reliance DG Dry Germicide, its components, reaction products, and residuals remaining on medical devices were evaluated for biocompatibility and possible risks to users. Testing included acute oral and ocular toxicity tests, dermal irritation studies, in vitro bacterial mutation genotoxicity studies, sensitization tests, and in vitro cytotoxicity evaluations; literature reviews of raw material toxicity data were also performed. Certain components in the single-use container, which under normal use conditions never contact the user, have the potential for irritation or skin sensitization; therefore appropriate warnings and instructions are displayed on labeling for the unusual event of a spill or container breakage.
- Use dilution reaches non-cytotoxic levels with minimal dilution. îî
-
Biocompatibility testing of extracts from processed medical devices demonstrated that no toxic residuals remain on devices under worst case circumstances. The test data indicate that the worst case residue levels for the components of maximum potential risk are far below the allowable limits. Furthermore, the processor final rinse water was found to be non-cytotoxic.
· Reliance Endoscope Processing System Material Compatibility:
The Reliance System was evaluated for its effect on intact medical devices. including flexible endoscopes and/or common materials of device construction. After 300 processing cycles, no deleterious effects were observed other than minor cosmetic changes. No functional changes in flexible endoscopes were observed.
· Reliance DG Dry Germicide Stability:
Reliance DG was tested and found stable for 18 months in the unopened moisture-resistant packaging at the stated conditions for storage. Once opened, the containers within each pouch are to be used within 2 weeks, or by the expiration date on the container, whichever comes first.
