Adjustable APL valve with 19 mm waste gas outlet connection which can be connected to an active scavenging system. MRI compatible Airway Pressure Gauge. Oxygen sensor port. Circuit Pressure monitor and gauge connection ports. THERMH2OSORB Sodalime CO2 absorber. Bag/Ventilator Switch Valve 22 mm breathing bag port and 22 mm ventilator hose port.

AI/ML Overview

The provided document does not contain acceptance criteria or a study proving the device meets acceptance criteria in the traditional sense of a clinical trial or performance testing with quantitative metrics.

Instead, the submission for the Charles A. Smith OBA-1™ MRI Anesthesia Unit (K012446) is a 510(k) premarket notification, which aims to demonstrate substantial equivalence to legally marketed predicate devices, not to prove clinical effectiveness or specific quantitative performance against acceptance criteria.

The "study" or justification for equivalence is a comparison of attributes between the proposed device and predicate devices.

Here's a breakdown based on the provided text, addressing your points where possible:


1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance:

The document does not present acceptance criteria or reported performance in a quantitative, metrics-based table. Instead, it offers a qualitative comparison table to establish substantial equivalence.

AttributeAcceptance Criteria (Implied by Predicate)Reported Device Performance (OBA-1 MRI)
Intended to provide anesthesia delivery in office or outpatient setting and MRI scanning roomsYes (as per predicate devices)Yes
Can be connected to central pipeline systems or cylinder yokes with regulatorsYes (as per predicate devices)Yes
Two gas flowmeters; 1 (oxygen) 1 (air)Yes (as per predicate devices)Yes

Utilizes a disposable CO2 absorber canisterYes (as per predicate devices)Yes
Has directional valves (inspiratory/ expiratory)Yes (as per predicate devices)Yes

Has an APL valve with gas scavengingYes (as per predicate devices)Yes
Manual ventilation via a breathing bag or automatic ventilation with ventilatorYes (as per predicate devices)Yes
Has oxygen monitoring portYes (as per predicate devices)Yes
Has patient pressure monitoring portYes (as per predicate devices)Yes
Connects to standard anesthesia breathing circuitsYes (as per predicate devices)Yes
Has oxygen flush valveYes (as per predicate devices)Yes
Materials are standard for use in anesthesia gas machinesYes (as per predicate devices)Yes
Provided clean, non-sterileYes (as per predicate devices)Yes
Can be cleaned and disinfectedYes (as per predicate devices)Yes
Performance Standards / SpecificationsNone applicable under Section 514None applicable under Section 514

Note: The "acceptance criteria" for a 510(k) submission are implicitly demonstrating that the new device shares the same fundamental scientific technology, indications for use, and technological characteristics as the predicate device(s), and does not raise different questions of safety and effectiveness.


Regarding the "Study" that Proves the Device Meets Acceptance Criteria:

The "study" in this context is the substantive equivalence comparison presented in the document, primarily the comparison table and the statement "There are no functional differences between the proposed device and the legally marketed predicate device."

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

  • Sample Size: Not applicable. This is not a study involving patient data or a test set in the traditional sense of a clinical trial. It's a technical and functional comparison.
  • Data Provenance: Not applicable for a test set. The data provenance refers to the specifications and characteristics of the device itself and its predicate devices.

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

  • Not applicable. There is no "test set" and no "ground truth" derived from expert consensus on patient data described here. The "ground truth" for substantial equivalence is the established safety and effectiveness of the predicate devices based on their prior clearance or pre-amendment status.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set:

  • Not applicable. No adjudication process for a test set is described.

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:

  • No. This device is an anesthesia machine, not an AI-assisted diagnostic tool. Therefore, an MRMC study is completely irrelevant.

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

  • No. This is a physical medical device, not a standalone algorithm.

7. The Type of Ground Truth Used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.):

  • The "ground truth" for the 510(k) submission is the established safety and effectiveness of the predicate devices (e.g., Smith OBA-1™ K000859, Dräger Narkomed MRI Anesthesia System K972848, Penlon Sigma Elite Vaporizer K942545, etc.) based on their prior clearance or legal marketing status. The applicant is asserting that the new device is fundamentally similar enough to these predicates to leverage their "ground truth" of known safety and effectiveness.

8. The Sample Size for the Training Set:

  • Not applicable. This is not a machine learning or AI device.

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

  • Not applicable. This is not a machine learning or AI device.

In summary: K012446 is a 510(k) submission for an anesthesia machine, which relies on demonstrating substantial equivalence to pre-existing devices. It does not involve patient studies, AI algorithms, or the kind of acceptance criteria and performance evaluation typically seen in diagnostic device clearances or clinical trials. The "proof" is the detailed comparison of features and intended use against legally marketed predicate devices.
