Intended Use

The RF Passive Attenuator/Splitter Model I 100 I 200 and Cutting/Coagulating Electrode Model R 10 is indicated for the cutting and coagulation of the tissue. This device is intended for use by qualified medical personnel in the use of electrosurgery.

Device Description

RF Passive Attenuator/Splitter Model I 100, I 200 and Cutting/Coagulating Electrode Model R 10.

AI/ML Overview

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance:

The provided document does not contain any specific acceptance criteria or reported device performance metrics for the RF Passive Attenuator/Splitter (PAS) and Loop Electrode. The letter is a 510(k) clearance stating substantial equivalence to a predicate device, which focuses on device type, indications for use, and regulatory compliance rather than detailed performance specifications.

2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance:

No information regarding a test set sample size or data provenance is available in this document.

3. Number of Experts Used to Establish Ground Truth and Qualifications:

No information about experts or ground truth establishment is provided.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set:

No information regarding an adjudication method is provided.

5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study:

No information about a MRMC study or its effect size is present in this document.

6. Standalone (Algorithm Only) Performance:

This device is a hardware component (RF Passive Attenuator/Splitter and Loop Electrode), not an algorithm or AI system. Therefore, standalone algorithm performance is not applicable and not discussed.

7. Type of Ground Truth Used:

No information regarding the type of ground truth used is provided. As this is a hardware device clearance, the "ground truth" would likely relate to electrical safety, performance specifications, and clinical effectiveness demonstrated in predicate devices, rather than a diagnostic ground truth.

8. Sample Size for the Training Set:

This device is a hardware component. The concept of a "training set" is not applicable here as it refers to data used to train AI models.

9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established:

Not applicable, as this is a hardware device.

Dear Dr. Wehman:

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 (Special Controls) or class III (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, Farts 800 to 895. A substantially equivalent determination assurves compliance with the current Good Manufacturing Practice requirements , as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (QS) 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
