Intended Use

The UNIDUS condom is used for contraceptive and for prophylactic purposes (to help prevent pregnancy and the transmission of sexually transmitted diseases)

Device Description

This condom is made of a natural latex sheath, which completely covers the erect penis with a closely fitted membrane. This condom is straight-walled with a reservoir tip; nominal length 180-mm, nominal width 52-mm, and nominal thickness 0.06mm. It is lubricated with silicone containing one of five flavors (strawberry, mint, vanilla, banana, or chocolate) and cornstarch is used as a dressing material. This condom is designed to conform to established national and international voluntary standards including ASTM D3492 and ISO 4074.

AI/ML Overview

This is a 510(k) premarket notification for a medical device, which generally does not include detailed study reports or acceptance criteria tables in the same way a scientific publication or a PMA would. The purpose of a 510(k) is to demonstrate substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device, rather than to prove safety and effectiveness through extensive new clinical trials.

Based on the provided text, here's what can be extracted and inferred regarding acceptance criteria and supporting information:

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

The document states that the condom is designed to conform to established national and international voluntary standards, specifically ASTM D3492 and ISO 4074. While the document doesn't provide a direct table of acceptance criteria from these standards or the specific reported device performance values against each criterion, it asserts conformance.

For a latex condom, key performance criteria typically covered by these standards include:

  • Physical Integrity (Burst Pressure and Volume): To ensure the condom does not break under intended use.
  • Dimensions (Length, Width, Thickness): To ensure proper fit.
  • Freedom from Holes: To prevent leakage.
  • Tensile Properties (Elongation at Break, Tensile Strength): To confirm material strength and elasticity.
  • Shelf Life/Stability: To ensure performance over time (though 510(k) typically defers to a separate labeling requirement for expiration dating, as noted in the FDA letter).

Since the submission is an Abbreviated 510(k), it relies on the consensus standards. The "reported device performance" is implicitly stated as "conforming" to these standards.

Acceptance Criteria (from ASTM D3492 / ISO 4074 - Inferred, not explicitly stated in document)Reported Device Performance
Various physical and mechanical properties (e.g., burst pressure, freedom from holes, dimensions, tensile strength, elongation at break) as specified in ASTM D3492 and ISO 4074."This condom is designed to conform to established national and international voluntary standards including ASTM D3492 and ISO 4074."
                                                                                            | "The design is in conformance with ASTM Latex Condom Standard D3492."

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

The document does not specify the sample size for any testing, the country of origin of the data, or whether the testing was retrospective or prospective. Such details are typically found in the full test reports referenced by the 510(k), but not included in this summary.

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 question is not applicable to this device submission. This device is a male latex condom, not an AI or diagnostic imaging device that involves expert interpretation or ground truth establishment in that context. The "ground truth" for a condom is its physical performance meeting specified engineering standards.

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

Not applicable, as this is not a study involving human readers or interpretation requiring adjudication.

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 or diagnostic device that would involve MRMC studies.

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

Not applicable. This is not an algorithm-based device. "Standalone performance" for a condom refers to its physical characteristics and integrity, which are tested against the consensus standards.

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

The "ground truth" for this device pertains to its physical and functional properties. These are established through performance testing against recognized national and international consensus standards (ASTM D3492 and ISO 4074). These standards define the acceptable performance parameters (e.g., minimum burst pressure, maximum number of holes allowed per batch).

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.

Trade Name/Device: Male Natural Rubber Latex Condom with flavored lubricant Regulation Number: 21 CFR 884.5300 Regulation Name: Condom Regulatory Class: II Product Code: 85 HIS Dated: September 12, 2002 Received: September 23, 2002

Dear Mr. Carter:

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 (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 (OS) for Medical Devices: General regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and that. through periodic OS 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.

{2}------------------------------------------------

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.

Please be advised that, as of March 25, 1998, labeling for latex condoms (21 CFR §884.5300 and 8884.5310) must comply with Use Labeling for Latex Condoms: Expiration Dating, 21 CFR 801.435. Therefore, an expiration date, supported by test data developed under the conditions specified in §801.435(d), must be displayed prominently and legibly on condom labeling. For condoms with spermicidal lubricant, the effective shelf life of the spermicide must be compared with the shelf life of the condom and labeled with the earlier of the two expiration dates. Although supporting data is not to be provided in your 510(k) submission, §801.435(j) requires that you maintain this data and that it be available for inspection by FDA. Furthermore, $801.435(e) requires that if your real-time test data fails to confirm the shelf life estimated by the methods in §801.435(d), then you must relabel all product to reflect the actual shelf life. Condoms are not to be labeled with an expiration date that gives a shelf life more than five years.

If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801), please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4616. 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" (21 CFR §807.97). Other general information on your responsibilities under the Act may be obtained from the Division of Small Manufacturers, International and Consumer Assistance at its toll-free number (800) 638-2041 or (301) 443-6597, or at its Internet address "http://www.fda.gov/cdrlv/dsma/dsmamain.html".
