AI/ML Overview

The provided document is a 510(k) premarket notification for a Powered Wheelchair (models NXN20-208, NXN20-211). It focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device (A08 Power Wheelchair, K163204) rather than presenting a study to prove acceptance criteria for a novel device. Therefore, much of the requested information regarding clinical studies, ground truth establishment, expert adjudication, and AI performance is not applicable to this submission.

However, the document does contain "acceptance criteria" through a demonstration of compliance with recognized standards and a comparison of performance characteristics to a predicate device, which serves as a benchmark for safety and effectiveness in this regulatory context.

Here's a breakdown of the available information:

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria (Standard Compliance) and Reported Device Performance

For a medical device like a powered wheelchair, acceptance criteria are generally defined by compliance with a set of established performance standards. The "reported device performance" is demonstrated by the completion of non-clinical tests verifying compliance with these standards.

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

  • Sample Size for Test Set: Not explicitly stated as this is a device clearance based on standard compliance and comparison, not an image-based AI study with a "test set" in that context. The tests were performed on the physical device models NXN20-208 and NXN20-211.
  • Data Provenance: The document states "Non clinical tests were conducted to verify that the proposed device met all design specifications." These tests would have been conducted by the manufacturer (Zhejiang Nysin Medical Co., Ltd.) in China or by a contracted testing facility. The specific location and retrospective/prospective nature of the individual test data are not detailed, but it is implied to be new test data generated for this submission.

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

  • Number of Experts: Not applicable. For a powered wheelchair, "ground truth" is typically established through objective measurements and testing against engineering and safety standards, rather than expert consensus on medical images or patient diagnoses.
  • Qualifications of Experts: Not applicable for the reasons above. Testing would be performed by qualified engineers and technicians.

4. Adjudication method for the test set

  • Adjudication Method: Not applicable. The "test set" here refers to physical device testing against established standards, not a diagnostic task requiring expert adjudication.

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

  • MRMC Study: No, this is not an AI-based diagnostic device. It is a powered wheelchair. Therefore, no MRMC study was conducted, and this question is not applicable.

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

  • Standalone Performance: Not applicable. This is not an AI algorithm.

7. The type of ground truth used

  • Type of Ground Truth: The "ground truth" for this device is based on objective, quantifiable measurements against internationally recognized performance and safety standards (e.g., ISO 7176 series, IEC 60601-1-2) and visual inspections of the device. For biocompatibility, it's compliance with FDA guidance and ISO 10993-1.

8. The sample size for the training set

  • Sample Size for Training Set: Not applicable. This is not a machine learning or AI device that requires a training set.

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

  • Ground Truth for Training Set: Not applicable. There is no training set for this device.

Dear Boyle 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 (the 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 available 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.

Additional information about changes that may require a new premarket notification are provided in the FDA guidance documents entitled "Deciding When to Submit a 510(k) for a Change to an Existing Device"

{1}------------------------------------------------

(https://www.fda.gov/media/99812/download) and "Deciding When to Submit a 510(k) for a Software Change to an Existing Device" (https://www.fda.gov/media/99785/download).

Your device is also subject to, among other requirements, the Quality System (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820), which includes, but is not limited to, 21 CFR 820.30. Design controls; 21 CFR 820.90. Nonconforming product; and 21 CFR 820.100, Corrective and preventive action. Please note that regardless of whether a change requires premarket review. the OS regulation requires device manufacturers to review and approve changes to device design and production (21 CFR 820.30 and 21 CFR 820.70) and document changes and approvals in the device master record (21 CFR 820.181).

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR Part 803) for devices or postmarketing safety reporting (21 CFR Part 4, Subpart B) for combination products (see https://www.fda.gov/combination-products/guidance-regulatory-information/postmarketing-safety-reportingcombination-products); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820) for devices or current good manufacturing practices (21 CFR Part 4, Subpart A) for combination products; and, if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR Parts 1000-1050.

All medical devices, including Class I and unclassified devices and combination product device constituent parts are required to be in compliance with the final Unique Device Identification System rule ("UDI Rue"). The UDI Rule requires, among other things, that a device bear a unique device identifier (UDI) on its label and package (21 CFR 801.20(a)) unless an exception or alternative applies (21 CFR 801.20(b)) and that the dates on the device label be formatted in accordance with 21 CFR 801.18. The UDI Rule (21 CFR 830.300(a) and 830.320(b)) also requires that certain information be submitted to the Global Unique Device Identification Database (GUDID) (21 CFR Part 830 Subpart E). For additional information on these requirements, please see the UDI System webpage at https://www.fda.gov/medical-devices/device-advicecomprehensive-regulatory-assistance/unique-device-identification-system-udi-system.
