Intended Use

The device is intended to be used by medical professionals or in the measurement of systolic and diastolic pressure. The device is intended to be manually attached to a patient and manually inflated along with a manual method for detecting Korotkoff sounds.

Device Description

Aneroid sphygmomanometer Model NT-20, NT-201/ Aneroid sphygmomanometer stethoscope, Model NT-50 are a manual non-invasive aneroid with sphygmomanometer which respectively uses an inflation cuff wrapped around the upper arm. The cuff is inflated and deflated by a manual inflation bulb. Besides a manometer (Aneroid gauge), the accessories include cuff, inflation bulb, instruction manual and carrying case. Model NT-50 also includes a stethoscope. It is conjunction with stethoscope when use.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text describes a 510(k) premarket notification for an aneroid sphygmomanometer. This type of submission focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device, rather than proving performance against specific acceptance criteria for a new AI/software-as-a-medical-device (SaMD) feature.

Therefore, the document does not contain the detailed information typically found in a study demonstrating how a device meets acceptance criteria, especially for AI or SaMD. Specifically:

  1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance: Not provided. The submission states that performance was "compatible as requirement of ISO 81060-1" and that "All performance specification was verified to comply with the ISO 81060-1 standard" and "Pressure : ±3mmHg of reading," but a detailed table of acceptance criteria and results is absent.

  2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance: Not provided. The document states "No clinical study is included in this submission," further indicating that a test set against ground truth as would be used for AI/SaMD performance evaluation was not conducted.

  3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts: Not applicable, as no clinical study or test set with expert-established ground truth was conducted.

  4. Adjudication method (e.g., 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set: Not applicable, as no clinical study or test set was conducted.

  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: Not applicable. This device is a manual aneroid sphygmomanometer, not an AI or imaging device that would involve human readers.

  6. If a standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done: Not applicable. This is a manual device; there is no algorithm in the sense of AI/SaMD.

  7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.): Not explicitly defined in the context of a "test set" for performance evaluation, as the submission focuses on meeting ISO standards. The accuracy is stated as "Pressure : ±3mmHg of reading", implying comparison against a reference standard.

  8. The sample size for the training set: Not applicable, as this is not an AI/SaMD device requiring a training set.

  9. How the ground truth for the training set was established: Not applicable, as this is not an AI/SaMD device.

Summary of available information related to acceptance criteria and performance:

The acceptance criteria are generally implied to be compliance with relevant standards, primarily ISO 81060-1 for performance and ISO 10993 series for biocompatibility.

Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance (based on implicit statements in the document):

Acceptance CriteriaReported Device Performance
AccuracyPressure: ±3mmHg of reading (compatible as requirement of ISO 81060-1)
Material BiocompatibilityBiocompatible as requirements of ISO 10993-1, ISO 10993-5, ISO 10993-10. Results of testing were acceptable.
Environmental CompatibilityCan be used from 50°F to 104°F (10°C to 40°C) and 15%~85% RH humidity.
Performance StandardCompatible as requirement of ISO 81060-1. All performance specifications verified to comply with ISO 81060-1.
Mechanical Safety(Implicitly similar to predicate and acceptable based on discussion)

Study Description:

The document states, "No clinical study is included in this submission." Instead, the submission relies on non-clinical testing which included biocompatibility and bench testing. The tests listed in the ISO 10993 series (for biocompatibility) and ISO 81060-1 (for performance) were included. The results of these tests were deemed acceptable, demonstrating that the device meets the performance specifications outlined in the standards. The primary method for proving the device meets the acceptance criteria (which are essentially the requirements of these ISO standards) is through this non-clinical testing and comparison to a predicate device.

Dear Iris Du:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database located at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Discussion:

Same in details:

  • Compared with the predicate device(K190902) RH non-Automated Blood pressure meter Model Max 02,RH non-Automated Blood pressure meter with stethoscope, Max02 01, Max0202, Max0203, the subject device Aneroid sphygmomanometer Model NT-20, NT-201/ Aneroid sphygmomanometer with stethoscope, Model NT-50 are same as the predicate device(K190902) in terms of material s of the inflation bulb, tubing, cuff and manometer.
  • Predicate device (K190902) and subject device NT-20, NT-201, NT-50 have same classification,indication for use, target population, measurement method, product physical design and operation, performance parameter ranges,mechanical safety, anatomical sites, operation principles and etc. The structure of the predicate device (K190902) are same as the subject device ,which all have manometer, bulb, tube, various size of cuff and stethoscope(optional).The predicate device and subject device all have single head stethoscope.

Difference in details:

  • The different sizes of the cuffs and bladders,cuff circumstance are provided in order to accommodate target population. All performance have been tested in this submission and do not raised any safety or effectiveness issue.All performance specification was verified to comply with the ISO 81060-1 standard.

7. Non-clinical testing

Non-clinical testing included biocompatibility and bench testing. The tests listed in the ISO 10993 and ISO 81060-1, were included. Results of testing were acceptable.

8. Clinical testing

No clinical study is included in this submission.

Conclusion

RH non-automated blood pressure meter Model Max 02, non-automated blood pressure meter with stethoscope Model Max0201, Max 0202,Max0203(K190902) and subject device have the same intended use and similar technological characteristics. Moreover, information contained in this submission supplied demonstrates that any difference in their characteristic do not raise any new questions of safety or effectiveness. Thus, aneroid sphymomanometer Model NT-20, NT-201/ aneroid sphymomanometer with stethoscope, Model NT-50 are equivalent to the predicate device(K190902).
