AI/ML Overview

The provided document is a 510(k) summary for a medical device (catheter introducer and vessel dilator) and does not contain information about a study proving device performance against acceptance criteria in the context of AI/ML or diagnostic accuracy. It focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to previously cleared devices.

Therefore, I cannot extract the requested information regarding acceptance criteria and performance studies in the context of AI/ML, human readers, ground truth, or training sets from this document.

The document mainly includes:

  • Device Classification and Common Name: Catheter introducer and Vessel dilator (21 CFR 870.1340 and 870.1310).
  • Substantial Equivalence: A comparison table demonstrating similarities to predicate devices (K894446, K931743, K871153, K930057, K945396).
  • Device Description: 16 and 18 French versions of the Braun Hemostasis Introducer with specific gasket and length details.
  • Intended Use: For percutaneous introduction of catheters into the vasculature while preventing blood backflow.
  • Summary/Comparison of Technological Characteristics: Detailed comparison of labeling, packaging, intended use, physical characteristics (French sizes, lengths, materials), and anatomical sites with predicate devices.

This document is for a traditional medical device submission and does not describe a study involving algorithms, AI, or human reader performance.
