This document is a 510(k) Summary for premarket notification of several surgical staplers. It focuses on demonstrating Substantial Equivalence (SE) to legally marketed predicate devices, rather than proving a device meets specific acceptance criteria in a clinical study or demonstrating an improvement in human reader performance with AI assistance.
Therefore, most of the information requested in your prompt (e.g., acceptance criteria for a study, sample sizes for test sets, number of experts for ground truth, adjudication methods, MRMC studies, standalone AI performance, type of ground truth, training set specifics) cannot be extracted from this document, as it describes a different type of regulatory submission process.
The document primarily outlines non-clinical testing to establish technical equivalence and mentions no clinical studies were performed for this submission.
Here's what can be extracted based on the provided text, and where your requested information is not applicable:
1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance
The document does not present "acceptance criteria" in the sense of clinical performance thresholds or a pre-defined set of performance metrics for human-in-the-loop or standalone AI. Instead, it describes non-clinical test conclusions verifying design specifications and substantial equivalence to predicate devices. The "reported device performance" is essentially that the device met these design specifications and performed comparably to predicate devices in bench tests.
Non-Clinical Test Conclusions and Performance (Staplers)
| Test Category | Acceptance/Conclusion | Reported Device Performance |
|---|---|---|
| Biocompatibility | Conforms to ISO 10993-1, -5, -10 standards. | Device materials are biocompatible (e.g., non-cytotoxic, non-irritating, non-sensitizing). |
| Sterilization | Conforms to ISO 11137-2 (Radiation) and ISO 11135 (Ethylene Oxide) standards. | Device can be effectively sterilized and maintain sterility. |
| Packaging Integrity | Conforms to ASTM F 88/F88M-09 (Seal Strength) and ASTM F1929-12 (Dye Penetration). | Packaging maintains seal integrity to protect the sterile device. |
| Endotoxin Limit | Meets specified endotoxin limit (20 EU). | Device has low endotoxin levels as required. |
| Bench Test (Swine tissue) | Demonstrated Substantial Equivalence to predicate devices. Includes: Pressure Resistance Test, Closed Staple Height Test, Staple Formation Test, Force Required to Fire Stapler Test. | Proposed devices performed comparably to predicate devices in these tests. For example, Closed Staple Height and Closed Staple Form were found to be "Same" or very similar to predicate devices, and force required to fire was suitable. (Specific numerical performance data like exact pressure resistance values are not provided in this summary, only the conclusion of equivalence). |
2. Sample sizes used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective)
- Sample Size: Not specified for the bench tests. It says "Bench test was conducted on swine stomach and intestine tissue," but the number of samples or animals is not provided.
- Data Provenance: The bench tests involved "swine stomach and intestine tissue." The manufacturer is Chongqing Qmi Surgical Co., Ltd. in China. The location where the bench tests were performed is not explicitly stated beyond "Non clinical tests were conducted," but it's implied to be part of the manufacturer's testing or a contracted lab. The data would be considered prospective as it's generated specifically for this submission.
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)
- Not applicable. This submission relies on non-clinical bench testing to demonstrate the physical and functional performance of the staplers against defined engineering specifications and comparison to predicate devices, not on human expert interpretation of medical images or records. Therefore, "ground truth" as typically defined for AI/diagnostic studies (e.g., expert consensus, pathology) is not established by human experts in this context.
4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set
- Not applicable. See point 3. This is not a study requiring human adjudication for ground truth.
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
- No MRMC study was done. This document is for a surgical stapler, not an AI device. The document explicitly states: "No clinical study is included in this submission."
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done
- Not applicable. This is a hardware device (surgical stapler), not an algorithm or AI.
7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc)
- For the non-clinical bench tests, "ground truth" would be the engineering specifications and physical properties of the stapler and the tissue tests. For example, "Closed staple height" is a measurable physical attribute, not a subjective interpretation. Comparison to predicate device performance also serves as a benchmark for equivalence.
8. The sample size for the training set
- Not applicable. This device is a surgical stapler, not an AI/machine learning model. There is no "training set."
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established
- Not applicable. See point 8.
