Intended Use

PMSSteripack Self Seal Sterilization Pouches with Chemical Indicator (KP); are intended to provide healthcare workers with an effective method to enclose medical devices intended for sterilization with steam or ethylene oxide (EO) applying the below validated sterilization cycle parameters. The indicated sterilization parameters for either steam or EO are the only validated sterilization parameters to be used/applied.

The recommended (and validated) sterilization cycle parameters are;

· For steam sterilization pre-vacuum cycle at 132 degrees C for 4 minutes.

· For EO sterilization: 100% ethylene oxide (EO) with a concentration of 725mg/l at 55 degrees C and 50-80% relative humidity for 60 minutes. Aeration time is 8 hours.

Chemical process indicator on the exterior of the pouch indicates by color change that the pouch has undergone either a steam or ethylene oxide sterilization process.

After the sterilization process is completed the sterility of the enclosed medical device is maintained for 30 days.

Device Description

PMSSteripack Self Seal Sterilization Pouches with Chemical Indicator (KP); are manufactured from medical grade paper/plastic film that are heat sealed on 3 sides, the fourth side has a self-seal adhesive strip and left opened. This side is manually sealed by the user with the self-seal adhesive strip. Triple band seal provides three independent barriers to contamination, while reducing the risk of fibre tear. PMSSteripack Self Seal Sterilization Pouches with Chemical Indicator (KP); are presented as 60 gsm model.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text describes the acceptance criteria and performance data for a medical device called "PMSSteripack Self Seal Sterilization Pouch with Chemical Indicator (KP)". However, it does not contain the level of detail requested for AI/ML device studies (e.g., number of experts, adjudication methods, training/test set sample sizes, ground truth provenance for training set). This is because the document is a 510(k) premarket notification for a sterilization pouch, which is a physical medical device, not an AI/ML algorithm. Therefore, the questions related to AI/ML device performance are not applicable.

Here's the information that can be extracted from the document, presented in a format that aligns with the request where possible:

2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective)

The document is for a physical medical device (sterilization pouch), not an AI/ML device. Therefore, a "test set" in the context of an AI/ML algorithm is not applicable. The performance data is based on various standard tests for sterilization packaging and indicators. The provenance mentioned is PMS Tıp Teknolojileri Sanayi ve Ticaret Limited Şirketi, located in Mersin, Turkey. The testing would have been conducted as part of the device's development and validation, which is prospective in nature, but specific sample sizes for each test are not detailed in this summary document.


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 question is not applicable to a physical medical device like a sterilization pouch, as "ground truth" established by experts in the context of AI/ML algorithms does not apply here. Performance is evaluated against established physical, chemical, and microbiological standards.


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

This question is not applicable to a physical medical device. Performance is evaluated against objective, measurable criteria and standards, not expert adjudication of complex interpretations.


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

This question is not applicable to a physical medical device. MRMC studies are relevant for imaging or diagnostic AI where human readers interact with the AI.


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

This question is not applicable to a physical medical device. There is no AI algorithm involved. The device operates independently of human interpretation in terms of its core function (sterilization and indication).


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

For this physical device, the "ground truth" used for testing would be based on:

  • Physical/Chemical Standards: Adherence to material specifications, seal strength, and indicator color change criteria as defined by international standards (e.g., ISO 11140-1, ISO 11607-1).
  • Microbiological Standards: Demonstrated sterility assurance level (SAL) of 10^-6, typically confirmed through biological indicator tests and sterility testing after exposure to validated sterilization cycles.
  • Performance Standards: Ability to maintain sterility for the stated shelf life (30 days in this case).

8. The sample size for the training set

This question is not applicable, as this is not an AI/ML device that requires a training set.


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

This question is not applicable, as this is not an AI/ML device that requires a training set or its associated ground truth establishment.

6. Description of the Principle of Operation

PMSSteripack Self Seal Sterilization Pouches with Chemical Indicator (KP) are used to enclose medical devices that are to be sterilized by health care provider via sterilization methods. Medical device to be sterilized is put into pouch and the open parts of the packages are manually closed with the self-seal adhesive strip. Sterilization packages then are subjected to sterilization operation in related sterilization devices (steam sterilizers, EO sterilization devices). Sterilant penetration is carried out through

{5}------------------------------------------------

the medical grade paper into the packages and microorganisms on the surface of the medical devices are destroyed with the effect of the sterilant vapors. Other parameters of the sterilization process are temperature, pressure; humidity and time are determined according to the sterilization type.

The process indicator on the pouches are intended to be used by a health care provider with sterilization pouches to distinguish between processed and unprocessed units by changing color. Chemical process indicators on the pouch indicate that the pouch has been exposed to sterilization process by changing color.

Chemical process indicators are printed on the pouch exterior (printed on medical grade paper component) changes color when exposed to sterilant vapor during processing. After the sterilization is completed, the sterility of the enclosed medical device is maintained for 30 days. Chemical indicator pars printed on to the medical grade paper component of the pouches are 100 mm- size, having dimensions of 5 mmx20 mm.

The indicators used on the pouches are classified as Class 1 type process indicator according to the ISO 11140-1 standard.
