Intended Use

The Aspiration/Ovum Pick-Up Aspiration Needles with AQ Coating are used for general irrigation/aspiration and flushing of oocytes from ovarian follicles.

Device Description

The Ovum Pick-Up Aspiration Needles with AQ coating is used for transvaginal ultrasound or laparoscopic aspiration/flushing of oocves from ovarian follicles. The Aspiration Needles with AQ coating are used for general aspiration and irrigation.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text is a 510(k) summary for Ovum Pick-Up Aspiration Needles with AQ Coating and Aspiration Needles with AQ Coating. This type of submission focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device rather than presenting a detailed study with specific acceptance criteria and performance metrics typically found in clinical trials for novel devices.

Therefore, the document does not contain the information requested regarding:

  • A table of acceptance criteria and reported device performance.
  • Sample size used for the test set and data provenance.
  • Number of experts used to establish ground truth or their qualifications.
  • Adjudication method for the test set.
  • Information on a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study.
  • Information on standalone algorithm performance.
  • The type of ground truth used.
  • Sample size for the training set.
  • How ground truth for the training set was established.

Explanation Based on the Provided Document:

The acceptance criteria for a 510(k) submission like this are primarily about demonstrating substantial equivalence to existing, legally marketed predicate devices. This means showing that the new device has the same intended use, technological characteristics, and safety and effectiveness as the predicate.

The study proving the device meets these acceptance criteria, as described in the 510(k) summary (Section {0}), is a comparison to predicate devices.

Key Information from the Document Regarding "Acceptance Criteria" (Substantial Equivalence) and "Study" (Comparison to Predicate):

  • Predicate Devices: The Ovum Pick-Up Aspiration Needles with AQ Coating and the Aspiration Needles with AQ Coating are deemed substantially equivalent to predicate devices including:

    • Cook OB/GYN Ovum Pick-Up Needles
    • Aspiration Needles (Cook OB/GYN)
    • Hydrophilic Dilators (Cook OB/GYN, Cook Urological)
    • Hydrophilic Catheters (Cook OB/GYN, Cook Urological)
  • Basis for Substantial Equivalence (the "Study"): "The Ovum Pick-Up Aspiration Needles with AQ Coating and the Aspiraiton Needles with AQ Coating are substantially equivalent to predicate devices in terms of indications for use, design, and materials of construction." (Section {0})

  • Device Description:

    • Ovum Pick-Up Aspiration Needles with AQ coating: "used for transvaginal ultrasound or laparoscopic aspiration/flushing of oocves from ovarian follicles."
    • Aspiration Needles with AQ coating: "used for general aspiration and irrigation."
  • Substantial Equivalence Statement: "These devices will be manufactured according to specified controls and a Quality Assurance Program. This device will undergo packaging similar to the devices currently marketed and distributed by Cook OB/GYN. Being similar with respect to indications for use, materials and physical construction to predicate devices, these devices meet the requirements for section 510(k) substantial equivalence." (Section {0})

This 510(k) submission is a regulatory filing, not a scientific study designed to establish quantitative performance metrics against specific acceptance criteria for a novel technology. It relies on the pre-existing safety and effectiveness of predicate devices.

Ovum Pick-Up Aspiration Needles with AQ (Hydrophilic) Coating and Aspiration Needles with AQ (Hydrophilic) Coating Dated: December 23, 1999 Received: December 29, 1999 Regulatory Class: Il 21 CFR §884.6100/Procode: 85 MQE

Dear Ms. Schmitt:

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 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). 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, Parts 800 to 895. A substantially equivalent determination assumes 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 not affect any obligation you might have under sections 531 through 542 of the Act for devices under the Electronic Product 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 marketed 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) 594-4591. Additionally, for questions on the promotion and advertising of your device, please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4639. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21CFR 807.97). Other general information on your responsibilities under the Act may be obtained from the Division of Small Manufacturers Assistance at its toll-free number (800) 638-2041 or (301) 443-6597 or at its internet address "http://www.fda.gov/cdrh/dsma/dsmamain.html".
