Device Description

The Q-Cath system is a monitoring and analysis system that is used by Physicians, nurses, technicians and administrators associated with the cardiac catherization (cath) lab. The Q-Cath is a Microsoft Windows® based system with 32-bit architecture. The system contains an acquisition subsystem and an analysis subsystem. The O-Cath organizes patient signals (invasive & non-invasive), and non-physiological signals from external devices. The Signal Conditioning System (SCS) acquisition subsystem contains connectors for the 12 lead surface ECG, four pressure inputs, three HIS inputs, two DC inputs, two types of synchronization waveform outputs and ECG simulator outputs. The optional Vital Statistical System (VSS) acquisition system contains module connections for the non-invasive blood pressure, the SPO2 and two auxiliary modules. The analysis system generates data based upon pressure site locations, ECG data and the entry of information such as cardiac output, oximetry results, and the patient physiological condition. The system stores Full Disclosure data of all waveform data to the O-Cath local computer or can be stored off-line to a file server.

AI/ML Overview

The provided document, a 510(k) summary for the Quinton Q-Cath System, does not contain information regarding acceptance criteria, a specific study proving device performance against such criteria, or details typically found in performance evaluation sections for AI/ML-driven devices.

The document describes a medical device for monitoring and analyzing hemodynamic data during cardiac catheterization procedures. Its purpose is to demonstrate substantial equivalence to a predicate device (Quinton Q-Cath, K862740), focusing on technological comparison, intended use, and safety/effectiveness aspects. The improvements mentioned are primarily related to system architecture (Windows-based, co-resident image analysis, integration of external data) and workflow efficiency, rather than a new analytical algorithm requiring rigorous performance metric evaluation against defined acceptance criteria.

Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information from the provided text. The document does not include details on:

Acceptance criteria table and reported device performance: No specific performance metrics (e.g., sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, precision for an analytical task) or acceptance thresholds are mentioned.
Sample size for the test set and data provenance: No test set is described.
Number of experts and qualifications for ground truth: No ground truth establishment is described as there's no analytical model being evaluated.
Adjudication method: Not applicable.
Multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study: Not applicable.
Standalone (algorithm only) performance: Not applicable.
Type of ground truth used: Not applicable.
Sample size for the training set: Not applicable.
How ground truth for the training set was established: Not applicable.

The 510(k) summary focuses on demonstrating that the Q-Cath System is "substantially equivalent in safety and effectiveness" to its predicate device through a comparison of technological characteristics, intended use, and compliance with general safety standards (like IEC 60601-1 and electromagnetic compatibility). It states, "Both devices perform equivalently," and "Generated data is identical," implying that the core functionality related to data generation and initial analysis remains the same as the predicate device, with enhancements primarily in user experience, data integration, and system architecture.

13. Technological comparison.

Both devices are based on personal computer (PC) platforms. The predicate device utilized a Pentium II processor while the proposed device utilizes a Pentium microprocessor or equivalent. Both devices utilize the same acquisition and analysis subsystems. Both devices utilize the same image analysis application. The predicate device utilizes a second PC for the image analysis application, these separate PC's share the same keyboard and monitor using a switch box to navigate between the two applications. The proposed device will allow the image analysis system to be co-resident on the PC. This represents a clinical process improvement and has no impact on the safety and/or efficacy of the device. The Windows based operating system is used in lieu of MS-DOS on the predicate device. This is a proven performance improvement in addition to providing a friendlier user environment. Material differences between the two devices are consistent with design. Both devices perform equivalently. Additionally, the proposed device has the capability to record non-invasive patient vital signs data outside of the cath lab (holding and recovery areas), to integrate image analysis reports into the cath final reporting, and to import patient registration, assessment, and clinical lab values from an external system. This represents a clinical process and workflow improvement and has no impact on the safety and/or efficacy of the device. Sterilization is not required for either device. Both devices utilize biocompatible materials that come into contact with the patient (patient leads). Mechanical safety, aside from stability, is not applicable for either device. Stability testing of both devices shall be performed in accordance with IEC 60601-1 Medical Electrical Equipment - Part 1: General Requirements for Safety. Chemical safety is not applicable for either device. Both devices are used in identical anatomical sites. Human factors for both devices are similar. Generated data is identical. However, the proposed device allows the user to import patient registration, assessment, clinical lab values, and image analysis reports from an external system. These enhancements to the application's workflow has no affect on safety and/or efficacy of the device. Both devices utilize medical grade power supplies to isolate the patient. The devices are for monitoring only. No energy is delivered to the patient. Both devices shall be compatible with their intended environment. The predicate device complied to IEC
