Under the supervision of a healthcare professional, SALINUM® has been formulated for the relief of chronic and temporary xerostomia (dry mouth), which may be a result of disease, medication, oncology therapy, stress or aging.
Over the counter Labeling stipulates that ORACLAIR has been formulated for the relief of dry mouth symptoms such as difficulties in swallowing, speech and changes in taste. These symptoms may be brought on by disease, stress, aging or medication.
SALINUM® / ORACLAIR is an oral saliva substitute which contains gel-forming substances (polysaccharides) from linseed that have lubricating and moistening properties. The product is preserved, buffered and packed in white PET (polyethylene terephthalate) bottles of various sizes with polypropylene disc top caps or single dose (2ml) polythene pipettes in strips of 10 packed in a cardboard carton.
The provided document does not contain information about acceptance criteria or a study proving the device meets them in the format requested.
The document is a 510(k) summary for a medical device called SALINUM® / ORACLAIR, an artificial saliva intended for the relief of dry mouth. It focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices rather than presenting a performance study with detailed acceptance criteria.
Here's a breakdown of why the requested information is absent:
- Acceptance Criteria Table and Reported Device Performance: This information is not present. The submission states, "Functional and performance testing has been conducted to assess the safety and effectiveness of SALINUM® and all results are satisfactory." However, it does not specify what those criteria were or detail the performance metrics.
- Sample Size for Test Set and Data Provenance: No details about a specific test set, its sample size, or data provenance (e.g., country of origin, retrospective/prospective) are mentioned.
- Number of Experts and Qualifications for Ground Truth: Since no performance study against a ground truth is described, there is no mention of experts or their qualifications.
- Adjudication Method: Not applicable as no adjudication process is detailed.
- Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study: No MRMC study, or any comparison to human reader performance, is mentioned.
- Standalone Performance Study: While "functional and performance testing" is mentioned, no specific standalone algorithm performance study with detailed results, metrics, or methodology is provided. The submission primarily focuses on equivalence.
- Type of Ground Truth Used: No ground truth is described for a performance study.
- Sample Size for Training Set: This is not applicable as SALINUM® / ORACLAIR is a pharmaceutical product (saliva substitute), not an AI/algorithm-based device that would require training data.
- How Ground Truth for Training Set Was Established: Not applicable for the reasons stated above.
The document is a regulatory submission for a physical medical device (oral solution), not an AI/software device that would typically involve the type of performance evaluation outlined in your request. The "Tests and Conclusions" section simply states that "functional and performance testing has been conducted... and all results are satisfactory," without providing details of these tests, criteria, or results.

Dear Ms. Swift:
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.

You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your Section 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.
If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801), please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4613.
