Intended Use

The intended use of the "Oxi-Snap" device is to screen patients for apnea and snoring and to provide quantitative and qualitative analysis of apnea and snoring.

The Oxi-SNAP testing system is only intended for short term monitoring such as to record the oximetry level continuously during the night.

The "Oxi-SNAP" system is not intended as a substitute for full polysomnography when additional parameters such as sleep stages, limb movements or EEG activity are required.

The target population is patients who are suspected of apnea and/or complain about snoring. The majority of the screenings are going to take place at the patient's home, although some may take place in a sleep laboratory. Both pediatric and adult patients may be tested.

Device Description

This notification is for a modification to the existing device, the "Snap Testing Device" the modified device is called the "Oxi-Snap" The modification involves the addition of the ability to record and analyze, (along with snoring sounds) the oxygen saturation level of the patient being monitored. An FDA cleared oximeter (Palco Model K943842) is connected to the currently used DAT tape 305, recorder, and the oxygen saturation is recorded while the patient is under test. Later, during the analysis phase, O2 SAT levels appear on the playback analysis screen, thereby allowing an additional criterion of apnea to be used.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text [K971184](https://510k.innolitics.com/device/K971184) is a 510(k) summary for the "Oxi-Snap" device, which is a modification of an existing device ("Snap Testing Device") to include oxygen saturation level recording and analysis. The document focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices rather than providing detailed acceptance criteria and a study to prove the device meets those criteria in a typical stand-alone performance study format.

Here's a breakdown of the requested information based on the provided text:

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

The document does not explicitly state specific numerical acceptance criteria for performance metrics (e.g., sensitivity, specificity, accuracy) for detecting apnea or snoring. Instead, it relies on demonstrating that the modified device ("Oxi-Snap") is as safe and effective as its predicate devices, primarily the "Snap Testing Device" (K944524), and incorporates an FDA-cleared oximeter (Palco Model 305, K943842).

The "Performance Testing" section in the Substantial Equivalence Chart for the "Oxi-SNAP" states "Summarized above," referring to the general conclusion of safety and effectiveness presented earlier. For the predicate "SNAP testing device," it refers to "Original submission," implying detailed performance data was provided in its initial filing.

Therefore, a table cannot be constructed with specific numerical acceptance criteria and reported performance metrics directly from this document. The "acceptance criteria" here are fundamentally about demonstrating substantial equivalence and maintaining the safety and effectiveness of the predicate.

Acceptance Criteria (Implied)Reported Device Performance
As safe and effective as predicate devices (K944524)"The results of bench and user testing indicates that the modified device is as safe and effective as the predicate device"
Provides additional benefit of oxygen saturation level information"provides the additional benefit of giving the clinician more information about the patient's snoring and apnea condition. The additional information is the patient's oxygen saturation level."
Easy for user to set up"The modified device is easy for the user to set up at home or in the sleep laboratory."
Compliance with electrical safety and EMI standards"ETL Listed," "Per applicable sections of UL-2601," "Per FCC Part 15 Class A"
Oximetry functionality included"Included" (referencing the Palco oximeter)

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

The document mentions "bench and user testing" but does not specify the sample size for the test set or the data provenance (e.g., country of origin, retrospective or prospective).

3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Their Qualifications

The document does not mention using experts to establish ground truth for a test set. This type of study design for determining diagnostic accuracy with expert-derived ground truth is not described in this 510(k) submission, which focuses on substantial equivalence.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

Since no expert-established ground truth study is described, no adjudication method is mentioned.

5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study Was Done, and Its Effect Size

No MRMC comparative effectiveness study is described in this 510(k) summary. The document focuses on the technical modification of the device and its claimed equivalence to existing devices. Its purpose is not to demonstrate improvement over human readers with or without AI assistance.

6. If a Standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) Was Done

The "Oxi-Snap" system is described as an "analyser service center" where tapes are analyzed, implying a human-in-the-loop for interpreting the recorded data. However, the core of the submission is about the device's ability to record and present data, not a standalone AI algorithm producing diagnoses. The Palco Model 305 oximeter, which is incorporated, would have undergone standalone performance testing as a prerequisite for its own FDA clearance (K943842). The Oxi-Snap itself is an analysis system that presents data.

7. The Type of Ground Truth Used

The document does not explicitly describe a ground truth used for performance evaluation of "Oxi-Snap" similar to what would be found in a diagnostic accuracy study. The "effectiveness" is primarily assessed by its ability to record and provide additional information (oxygen saturation) in a manner comparable to its predicate and the incorporated cleared oximeter. Polysomnography (PSG) is often considered the gold standard for sleep apnea diagnosis, and the document states the Oxi-SNAP system is "not intended as a substitute for full polysomnography." This suggests that while it screens for apnea, its "ground truth" for screening performance is likely benchmarked against clinical utility as a screening tool, not necessarily against a definitive PSG diagnosis within this specific filing.

8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

The document does not mention a training set sample size. This is not an AI/machine learning device in the contemporary sense, but rather a modification to a recording and analysis system.

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

Since there is no mention of a training set, no information is provided on how its ground truth would have been established.

    1. Equivalent legally marketed devices This product is similar in design and function to the "Snap Testing Device" K944524, and incorporates a Pulse Oximeter, Palco Model 305, K943842 and "Mesam IV device" K901466.
    1. Indications for Use: The intended use of the "Oxi-Snap" device is to screen patients for apnea and snoring and to provide quantitative and qualitative analysis of apnea and snoring.

The Oxi-SNAP testing system is only intended for short term monitoring such as to record the oximetry level continuously during the night.

The "Oxi-SNAP" system is not intended as a substitute for full polysomnography when additional parameters such as sleep stages, limb movements or EEG activity are required.

    1. Safety and Effectiveness, comparison to predicate device. The results of bench and user testing indicates that the modified device is as safe and effective as the predicate device and provides the additional benefit of giving the clinician more information about the patient's snoring and apnea condition. The additional information is the patient's oxygen saturation level. The modified device is easy for the user to set up at home or in the sleep laboratory. The modification involves the addition of a portable oximeter to the patient setup. The oximeter is connected to the DAT tape recorder along with the usual microphone/cannula apparatus and the oximeter sensor is slipped over the patient's finger in the usual manner. The patient turns on the tape recorder, then goes to sleep. Apnea and snoring events are then recorded. After awakening, the patient returns the tape and the equipment to the analysis service center, where the tape is analyzed.

7 . Conclusion

After analyzing both bench and user testing data, it is the conclusion of SNAP Laboratories that the "Oxi-Snap" testing snoring and apnea testing device is as safe and effective as the predicate device and has no new indications for use, thus rendering it substantially equivalent to the predicate Snap Testing Device.
