The provided document is a 510(k) Summary for a medical device, which is an application to demonstrate substantial equivalence to an existing legally marketed device. It describes the device, its intended use, and the non-clinical tests conducted. However, it does not detail specific acceptance criteria for a study in the way one might expect for a clinical trial or a performance study with numerical thresholds.
Instead, the document primarily focuses on verifying that the proposed device (Disposable Medical Device Self-seal Sterilization Pouch, Disposable Medical Device Sterilization Reel Pouch) meets design specifications and complies with recognized standards and validation tests. The "acceptance criteria" can be inferred from the successful completion of these tests as per the relevant standards.
Here's an attempt to extract the requested information, acknowledging that the document doesn't explicitly present acceptance criteria and reported performance in a table format for a single study, but rather refers to various validation methods.

2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance
The document does not explicitly state the sample sizes for each non-clinical test. It lists the standards and types of validation performed. The data provenance is not specified beyond the tests being conducted for submission to the U.S. FDA, likely implying internal company testing or testing by certified labs for the manufacturer (Weihai Xingtai Packaging Products Co., Ltd. from China). The tests are retrospective in the sense that they were performed on manufactured devices to demonstrate compliance.
3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Their Qualifications
Not applicable. This device is a sterilization packaging material, and its performance is evaluated against engineering, material, microbiological, and chemical standards, not by human interpretation of medical images or diagnoses. Ground truth is established by the specified test methods and criteria within the aforementioned standards.
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set
Not applicable for this type of non-clinical testing. The outcomes of the tests are objective measurements and observations (e.g., color change, absence of microbial growth, resistance to pressure, absence of leaks, material integrity).
5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study
No. This is a Class II medical device (sterilization wrap) and the validation is based on non-clinical performance standards. MRMC studies are typically for diagnostic imaging devices where human reader performance is a key metric.
6. Standalone Performance (Algorithm Only Without Human-in-the-Loop Performance)
This concept is not directly applicable. The device itself is not an algorithm. Its performance is inherent in its physical and chemical properties when subjected to sterilization processes. The "standalone" performance here refers to the device's ability to meet its functional requirements (e.g., maintain sterility, indicate sterilization) independent of human variability in the use of the device, assuming proper handling and sterilization procedures are followed. The non-clinical tests validate these inherent properties.
7. Type of Ground Truth Used
The ground truth used for evaluating this device's performance is based on established scientific and engineering standards and validation protocols. This includes:
- Physical measurements (e.g., pressure resistance, seal integrity).
- Microbiological challenge testing (e.g., absence of growth).
- Chemical reactions (e.g., specific color change of indicators).
- Biocompatibility assessments (e.g., cytotoxicity, irritation).
- Material science evaluations (e.g., material degradation, aging).
8. Sample Size for the Training Set
Not applicable. The device is not an AI/ML algorithm that requires a training set. The "training" for this device comes from its design and manufacturing process, optimized to meet the performance standards.
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established
Not applicable, as there is no training set for an AI/ML algorithm.
