AI/ML Overview

This document describes a 510(k) premarket notification for the Applied Medical Mini-Laparoscope, and as such, it does not contain the detailed study information typically found for AI/ML-driven devices. The submission relates to a medical device for visualization during laparoscopic procedures, a physical instrument, not a software algorithm.

Therefore, most of the requested information regarding acceptance criteria and studies (especially those related to AI performance, ground truth, expert adjudication, and comparative effectiveness) is not applicable to this type of traditional medical device submission.

Here's a breakdown of what can be extracted and what is not applicable:

1. Table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance

The document mentions that mechanical and biocompatibility tests were performed. However, it does not provide specific acceptance criteria or quantitative performance results in a table format.

Acceptance Criteria CategoryReported Device Performance
Functional IntegrityDemonstrated functional integrity. (Specific criteria and quantitative results not provided)
Structural IntegrityDemonstrated structural integrity. (Specific criteria and quantitative results not provided)
Material SafetyDemonstrated material safety. (Specific criteria and quantitative results not provided)
Substantial EquivalenceDemonstrated substantial equivalence to the MICROLAP™ 2mm LAPAROSCOPE and INTRODUCER (IMAGYN Corp.) and similarity to the AMR Rigid Ureteroscope (K901214). Introduces no new safety and effectiveness issues.

2. Sample sized used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective)

  • Not applicable. This pertains to studies of algorithms, not physical devices undergoing mechanical and biocompatibility testing. The submission does not detail specific "test sets" in the context of data for an algorithm.

3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts (e.g. radiologist with 10 years of experience)

  • Not applicable. This is relevant for AI/ML performance evaluation, not for the physical and biological testing of a conventional medical device like a laparoscope.

4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set

  • Not applicable. As above, this is for AI/ML ground truth establishment.

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 study type is for AI/ML-assisted diagnosis/interpretation, which is not what this device is. The device is a direct visualization tool.

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

  • Not applicable. There is no algorithm being evaluated in a standalone capacity.

7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc)

  • Not applicable. The "ground truth" for a physical device's performance is typically established through engineering standards, test methods, and potentially animal or human cadaver studies for efficacy, rather than expert consensus on interpretive data.

8. The sample size for the training set

  • Not applicable. There is no algorithm requiring a "training set."

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

  • Not applicable. There is no algorithm requiring a "training set."

TRADE NAME:Not Determined

SUMMARY STATEMENT: The AMR Mini-laparoscope is designed and indicated for visualization of body cavities during laparoscopic procedures. The device features a stainless steel body containing light fibers encased in epoxy, an aluminum eyepiece, a light post for purposes of connecting a light source and a means of connecting to a video monitor. The AMR Mini-laparoscope is substantially equivalent to a device marketed by IMAGYN Corp. under the name of MICROLAP™ 2mm LAPAROSCOPE and INTRODUCER.

The design configuration of the AMR Mini-laparoscope is also similar to the AMR Rigid Ureteroscope which was previously approved under K901214.

Mechanical and biocompatibility tests were performed to verify functional and structural integrity and material safety of the Mini-laparoscope. All testing has demonstrated that the AMR Mini-laparoscope is comparable to the predicate devices and introduces no new safety and effectiveness issues when used as indicated.

Applied Medical® Mini Laparoscope .. - -Dated: June 30, 1997 Received: July 9, 1997 Regulatory class: II 21 CFR §884.1720/Product code: 85 HET

Dear Mr. Rowe:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) notification of intent to market the device referenced above and we have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to 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). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. 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.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Premarket Approval), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 895. A substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the Current Good Manufacturing Practice requirement, as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (OS) for Medical Devices: General regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic QS inspections, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply with the GMP regulation may result in regulatory action. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register. Please note: this response to your premarket notification submission does not affect any obligation you might have under sections 531 through 542 of the Act for devices under Radiation Control provisions, or other Federal laws or regulations.

This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marked predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.

If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801 and additionally 809.10 for in vitro diagnostic devices), please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4613. Additionally, for questions on the promotion and advertising of your device, please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4639.
