AI/ML Overview

This document is a 510(k) summary for a Disposable Medical Mask (Model: k0450). It focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device. The information provided is for a medical device (surgical mask), not a software or AI device. Therefore, the concepts of human readers, AI assistance, effect size, training sets, and ground truth establishment in the context of AI/ML models are not applicable to this document.

The acceptance criteria and performance data pertain to the physical characteristics and barrier performance of the surgical mask.

1. Table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance

Test PurposeTest MethodAcceptance CriteriaReported Device Performance
Fluid Resistance Performance (mmHg)ASTM F1862≥ 29 Out of 32 pass at 120 mmHg32 out of 32 pass at 120 mmHg
Particulate Filtration Efficiency Performance (%)ASTM F2299≥ 98%99.9%
Bacterial Filtration Efficiency Performance (%)ASTM F2101≥ 98%99.9%
Flammability class16 CFR 1610Class 1Class 1
Differential Pressure (Delta-P) (mm H2O/cm2)ASTM F2100-19< 5.0 mmH2O/cm2< 5.0 mmH2O/cm2

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

  • Fluid Resistance Performance (ASTM F1862): The test involved 32 samples as indicated by the acceptance criteria and reported performance ("29 Out of 32 pass" and "32 out of 32 pass").
  • Other tests (Particulate Filtration Efficiency, Bacterial Filtration Efficiency, Flammability, Differential Pressure): The sample sizes for these specific tests are not explicitly stated in the provided text, beyond the percentage or class reported.
  • Data Provenance: The tests were conducted by a lab (implied by "lab bench testing") to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the device. The specific country of origin of the testing lab is not mentioned, though the manufacturer is based in China. The tests are described as "non-clinical tests" and not related to human subject data, therefore, "retrospective or prospective" doesn't apply in the context of clinical trials.

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

N/A. This is a physical medical device (surgical mask) evaluated by laboratory bench testing against established performance standards. "Experts" to establish a ground truth in the sense of clinical interpretation or diagnosis are not relevant for this type of testing. The "ground truth" is defined by the objective measurement standards referenced (e.g., ASTM F1862, ASTM F2101).

4. Adjudication method for the test set

N/A. As this involves objective physical testing against defined standards, an adjudication method for reconciling expert opinions is not applicable.

5. If a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done

N/A. An MRMC study is relevant for comparing the performance of readers (e.g., clinicians) with and without assistance from a diagnostic tool or AI. This submission is for a physical medical device (surgical mask) and does not involve human readers in its performance evaluation as described.

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

N/A. This is not a software or algorithm-based medical device.

7. The type of ground truth used

The "ground truth" for the performance of the Disposable Medical Mask is based on objective measurements against established performance standards (e.g., ASTM F1862 for fluid resistance, ASTM F2101 for bacterial filtration efficiency, 16 CFR 1610 for flammability). These standards define the criteria for a "Level 2 barrier" mask.

8. The sample size for the training set

N/A. This is not an AI/ML device that requires a training set.

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

N/A. This is not an AI/ML device that requires a training set or ground truth established for it.

Dear Shuyan Wang:

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.

§ 878.4040 Surgical apparel.

(a)
Identification. Surgical apparel are devices that are intended to be worn by operating room personnel during surgical procedures to protect both the surgical patient and the operating room personnel from transfer of microorganisms, body fluids, and particulate material. Examples include surgical caps, hoods, masks, gowns, operating room shoes and shoe covers, and isolation masks and gowns. Surgical suits and dresses, commonly known as scrub suits, are excluded.(b)
Classification. (1) Class II (special controls) for surgical gowns and surgical masks. A surgical N95 respirator or N95 filtering facepiece respirator is not exempt if it is intended to prevent specific diseases or infections, or it is labeled or otherwise represented as filtering surgical smoke or plumes, filtering specific amounts of viruses or bacteria, reducing the amount of and/or killing viruses, bacteria, or fungi, or affecting allergenicity, or it contains coating technologies unrelated to filtration (e.g., to reduce and or kill microorganisms). Surgical N95 respirators and N95 filtering facepiece respirators are exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to § 878.9, and the following conditions for exemption:(i) The user contacting components of the device must be demonstrated to be biocompatible.
(ii) Analysis and nonclinical testing must:
(A) Characterize flammability and be demonstrated to be appropriate for the intended environment of use; and
(B) Demonstrate the ability of the device to resist penetration by fluids, such as blood and body fluids, at a velocity consistent with the intended use of the device.
(iii) NIOSH approved under its regulation.
(2) Class I (general controls) for surgical apparel other than surgical gowns and surgical masks. The class I device is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to § 878.9.
