AI/ML Overview

Here's an analysis of the provided text regarding the AOSEPT Clear Care Cleaning and Disinfecting Solution, focusing on acceptance criteria and supporting studies:

This document primarily describes the substantial equivalence of a contact lens cleaning solution to existing products, rather than a medical device employing AI or complex algorithms. Therefore, many of the standard questions regarding AI device evaluation (like sample size for test sets, expert ground truth, MRMC studies, standalone performance, training sets) are not directly applicable.

However, I can extract the relevant information from the provided text in the requested format where possible, and indicate when information is not applicable or not provided for this type of product.

2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance:

  • Sample Size (Clinical Evaluation): Not explicitly stated as a number of participants. It mentions "Study participants were all randomized."
  • Data Provenance: Prospective, randomized, single masked, contralateral trial. No country of origin is explicitly stated, but the submitter information is from Duluth, Georgia, USA.

3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts:

  • Not applicable in the context of this device (contact lens solution). The "ground truth" for clinical efficacy and safety was established through participant feedback, investigator observations, and objective measurements (dark-field image analysis). "Investigators" observed front surface wetting and appraised lens deposits, but their number and specific qualifications (e.g., ophthalmologist, optometrist) are not detailed.

4. Adjudication method for the test set:

  • Not applicable as this is not an image-based or diagnostic device requiring expert adjudication. The study used a "single masked" design, where participants were masked to which eye received the test vs. control product.

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:

  • Not applicable. This is not an AI-assisted diagnostic device. The study compared two contact lens care solutions.

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

  • Not applicable. This is not an algorithmic device. The "standalone" term is used in the context of microbiology testing, referring to the solution's ability to disinfect by itself, without a separate cleaning step. The text notes: "These studies demonstrate that AOSEPT Clear Care meets the stand-alone criteria of the disinfection efficacy test of the FDA May 1, 1997 Guidance for Industry; Premarket Notification 510(k) Guidance Document for Contact Lens Care Products."

7. The type of ground truth used:

  • Performance (Microbiology): Compliance with FDA guidance for disinfection efficacy.
  • Performance (Cleaning): Objectively measured protein removal, and dark-field image analysis of lenses for cleanliness.
  • Clinical Efficacy/Safety: Subjective feedback (insertion comfort, dryness, cleanliness, overall preference) from study participants and objective observations/appraisals by investigators.

8. The sample size for the training set:

  • Not applicable. This is not a machine learning or AI device that requires a training set.

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

  • Not applicable.

6. Description of Safety and Substantial Equivalence

Cleaning Studies

Previous studies have demonstrated the cleaning capacity of AOSEPT Clear Care Cleaning and Disinfecting Solution (K003345) with soft contact lenses. The study previously submitted and reviewed demonstrated that AOSept Clear Care was substantially equivalent to the ReNu Multiplus and OptiFree Express in terms of daily protein removal.

Microbiology

A series of studies were completed to demonstrate the microbiological efficacy of AOSEPT Clear Care. These studies were previously submitted under 510(k) K003345. These studies demonstrate that AOSEPT Clear Care meets the stand-alone criteria of

the disinfection efficacy test of the FDA May 1, 1997 Guidance for Industry; Premarket Notification 510(k) Guidance Document for Contact Lens Care Products.

Clinical Evaluation Summary:

Overview

A three-month prospective, randomized, single masked, contralateral trial was preformed. Study participants were all randomized for which eye used the test and which eye used the control product. The control used in the study was Bausch & Lomb ReNu Multi-Plus Multi-Purpose solution. The regimen followed by the participants was the manufacturer's instructions for the eye using the control product (including rub and rinse) and the instructions provided for the eye using the test product (no rub/no rinse). The contra-lateral design and inclusion criteria optimize sensitivity in comparing the products.

Statistically significant differences in favor of AOSept Clear Care were found for insertion comfort and overall dryness. Statistically significant preference differences in those who expressed a preference in favor of AOSept Clear Care were also found for insertion comfort, dryness and lens cleanliness. Statistically significant differences (at the 0.01 or greater level) in favor of AOSept Clear Care were also found for all subjective ratings. Statistically significant differences (0.01 or greater) in favor of AOSept Clear Care were found for all subjective preference rankings.

Front surface wetting of the lenses was observed by the investigators and was found to be similar between the two lens groups. In addition, there were no statistically significant differences in investigator appraisal of lens deposits, front surface wetting and objective dark-field image analysis of lenses worn for 90 days. Both the test and control product provided clinically acceptable lens cleanliness when used according to their directions for use as measured by dark filed image analysis of the returned lenses.

The safety of AOSept Clear Care used without a rub (for lenses worn greater than onemonth), is clinically acceptable and similar to the Bausch & Lomb ReNu Multi-Purpose Solution used according to its approval labeling, which requires a digital rubbing step.

7. Substantial Equivalence

AOSept Clear Care Cleaning and Disinfection Solution is substantially equivalent to the Bausch & Lomb ReNu Multi-Purpose Solution in cleaning, disinfecting, daily protein removal and storing of soft (hydrophilic) contact lenses as recommended by your eye care practitioner. The system was also shown to be substantially equivalent to the ReNu Multiplus Solution in daily removal of protein.
