Intended Use

The TMD™ Safety Syringe (FA14 Series 10ml/FA15 Series 20ml) is designed as an anti-stick syringe to reduce the risk of sharps injuries and the potential for syringe reuse and is a single use, disposable and manual retractable safety syringe which is intended for injection of fluids into or withdraw from the body.

Device Description

The TMD™ Safety Syringe (FA14 Series 10ml/FA15 Series 20ml) is a sterile, single use and disposable, 10 ml & 20ml piston syringe, provided with or without needle in various product configurations. The TMD™ Safety Syringe (FA14 Series 10ml/FA15 Series 20ml) is similar in appearance, size, materials, operation, and purpose to other conventional single use, sterile, disposable syringes.

AI/ML Overview

The provided document is a 510(k) Summary for a medical device called the TMD™ Safety Syringe. It describes the device, its intended use, and compares it to a legally marketed predicate device. However, it does not include detailed acceptance criteria or a study proving the device meets specific performance criteria in the way typically found for diagnostic algorithms or AI-driven systems.

The document states: "Performance data has been generated in compliance with the design control requirement and appropriate standards. The result demonstrated equivalent to the predicate devices." This implies that the device was tested against existing standards for syringes and found to perform comparably to previously approved devices. However, the specific acceptance criteria, study details, and data provenance are not elaborated in the summary.

Therefore, many of the requested fields cannot be filled from the provided text.

Here's a breakdown of what can and cannot be answered based on the input:

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

Acceptance CriteriaReported Device Performance
Not specified in the document"demonstrated equivalent to the predicate devices." (Specific quantitative performance metrics are not provided.)

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

  • Sample Size (Test Set): Not specified.
  • Data Provenance: Not specified.

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)

  • Not applicable as this is a physical medical device (syringe), not a diagnostic algorithm requiring expert ground truth in this context.

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

  • Not applicable for this type of device and study description.

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 a syringe, not an AI-assisted diagnostic tool.

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

  • Not applicable. This is a syringe, not an algorithm.

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

  • For physical devices like syringes, "ground truth" would typically refer to adherence to engineering standards (e.g., ISO standards for sterility, fluid flow, burst pressure, material compatibility, safety mechanism activation). The document broadly states "compliance with the design control requirement and appropriate standards," implying such testing was done, but doesn't detail it.

8. The sample size for the training set

  • Not applicable. This is a physical device, not a machine learning model.

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

  • Not applicable. This is a physical device, not a machine learning model.

Dear Dr. Chou:

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.
