Intended Use

The Inno-Hydrowire is intended to direct a catheter to the desired anatomical location in the vasculatory system during diagnostic or interventional procedures. This device is not intended for neurovascular or coronary use.

Device Description

The Inno-Hydrowire is intended to direct a catheter to the desired anatomical location in the vasculatory system during diagnostic or interventional procedures. It is provided sterile and is intended for single use only. It consists of a Nickel-Titanium alloy core wire; a polymer coating (Pebax containing BaSO4 for X-Ray visibility); and a hydrophilic coating applied to the entire wire. There are two shaft configurations: standard and stiff. There are two distal tip shapes: straight and angled. The Inno-Hydrowire includes a 3cm flexible tip. The Inno-Hydrowire is packaged in a plastic dispenser that is contained within an individual package. A Torquer is included which connects to the proximal end of the guidewire utilized for rotating and controlling the guidewire. The Hydrowires are packaged within a cardboard box which contains five individual guidewires.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text describes a 510(k) summary for the Inno-Hydrowire, a catheter guide wire. The purpose of a 510(k) submission is to demonstrate that a new device is substantially equivalent to a legally marketed predicate device. This process typically relies on non-clinical performance testing and biocompatibility testing, rather than studies involving expert readers, AI assistance, or complex ground truth establishment as seen in diagnostic AI devices.

Therefore, many of the requested categories are not applicable to this type of device submission.

Here's an analysis based on the provided document:

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

The document does not explicitly present a table of acceptance criteria with corresponding performance results in a directly comparable format for each test. Instead, it lists the performance tests conducted and then states that "The results of the following performance tests have demonstrated substantial equivalence to the predicate device" and that "Test results for all biocompatibility testing met the applicable test requirements."

Inferred Acceptance Criteria (Based on tested parameters): The acceptance criteria are implicitly defined by compliance with established medical device standards and the substantial equivalence to the predicate device for each performance characteristic.

Acceptance Criteria (Inferred from tests)Reported Device Performance

Ethylene Oxide (EO) and Ethylene Chlorohydrin (ECH) residuals (compliance with ISO 10993-7)Met requirements for limited exposure devices

2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance

The document describes non-clinical performance testing and biocompatibility testing. These tests are typically conducted on a specific number of device samples or using specific biological models (e.g., rabbits for pyrogenicity, dogs for thrombogenicity). The document does not specify the exact sample sizes for each individual test, nor does it refer to a "test set" in the context of human data or image data. Data provenance (country of origin, retrospective/prospective) is not relevant for these types of non-clinical tests.

3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts

This is not applicable. The device is a physical guidewire; there is no "ground truth" established by human experts in the context of diagnostic performance or image interpretation. The "ground truth" for its performance is instead defined by objective physical and chemical properties measured according to international standards (e.g., tensile strength, biocompatibility profiles).

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

This is not applicable. Adjudication methods are used in studies involving human interpretation or subjective assessments, often in diagnostic contexts. The tests performed for this guidewire are objective and standardized, not requiring human adjudication of results.

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 is not applicable. This document describes the substantial equivalence evaluation for a medical device (a guidewire), not an AI-powered diagnostic tool. Therefore, MRMC studies, human reader improvement with AI, or effect sizes are not relevant.

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

This is not applicable. The Inno-Hydrowire is a manually operated physical medical device, not an algorithm or AI system.

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

The "ground truth" for evaluating the Inno-Hydrowire is defined by:

  • International Standards: Compliance with ISO 11070:2014 for physical performance and ISO 10993 series for biocompatibility, and ISO 11135 for sterilization.
  • Predicate Device Performance: The primary method of demonstrating safety and effectiveness for a 510(k) device is by showing substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device (Terumo Radifocus® Guidewire, K863138). This means the Inno-Hydrowire's performance characteristics must fall within acceptable ranges similar to the predicate under the specified test conditions.

8. The sample size for the training set

This is not applicable. The Inno-Hydrowire is a physical medical device, not a machine learning model; therefore, there is no "training set."

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

This is not applicable for the same reason as point 8.
