AI/ML Overview

The provided 510(k) summary for the Klimamed® Thermal Mat & Controller 95 & 55 Watts does not contain detailed information about specific acceptance criteria, a study proving device performance, sample sizes for test or training sets, expert qualifications, or adjudication methods.

Instead, the submission primarily focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device (Allon 2001 by M.T.R.E Advanced Technology, Ltd, K001546) based on technological characteristics.

Here's a breakdown of the available information and what's missing:

1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance

The document does not explicitly define acceptance criteria as numerical targets or benchmarks that the device had to achieve. Instead, it relies on a comparative table to show that the Klimamed® device's characteristics are "Identical" or "Similar" to the predicate device.

Anatomical sitesIdentical
Human factorsSimilar

What's missing regarding "reported device performance":
The document states "Performance: Identical" in the comparison table, but it does not provide any specific performance metrics, data, or results from tests conducted on the Klimamed® Thermal Mat & Controller itself. It implicitly claims that because its performance is "Identical" to a legally marketed predicate, it meets an unstated, accepted level of performance.

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

This information is not provided in the 510(k) summary. The submission does not describe a specific clinical or performance test set with a defined sample size. The equivalence is primarily based on a comparison of technological characteristics.

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)

This information is not provided. As no specific performance study on a test set is described, there's no mention of experts establishing ground truth.

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

This information is not provided.

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

This is not applicable to this device. The Klimamed® Thermal Mat & Controller is a thermal regulating system, not an AI-assisted diagnostic device that would involve human readers interpreting cases.

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

This is not applicable to this device. It is not an algorithm-based device.

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

This information is not provided. No specific test set or ground truth establishment is described. The "ground truth" for demonstrating substantial equivalence appears to be the established safety and effectiveness of the predicate device based on its prior market clearance.

8. The sample size for the training set

This information is not provided. This device is a physical medical device, not a machine learning model, so the concept of a "training set" in this context does not apply.

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

This is not applicable as there is no training set for this type of device.

In summary:

The 510(k) submission for the Klimamed® Thermal Mat & Controller relies on a comparison of technological characteristics to a predicate device to demonstrate substantial equivalence, rather than providing detailed acceptance criteria and the results of a specific performance study against those criteria. The argument is that since the device's characteristics (including "Performance") are "Identical" or "Similar" to a device already cleared by the FDA, it is considered safe and effective.

Dear Mr. Mansour:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and 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 (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). 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 (PMA), 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 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
