AI/ML Overview

The provided documentation is a 510(k) Premarket Notification for the TM2005 Personal Medical Phone™ Center. This type of submission is for demonstrating substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device, not for proving a device meets specific performance acceptance criteria through clinical studies in the same way a PMA (Premarket Approval) submission would.

Therefore, the document does not contain information about acceptance criteria for device performance, nor a study proving the device meets them, as typically found for novel device approvals. Instead, it focuses on demonstrating that the TM2005 is substantially equivalent to a previously approved predicate device (TM2000 Receiving Center K992164) and meets relevant safety standards.

Here's a breakdown of the requested information based on the provided text, highlighting what is not available in this type of submission:

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

Acceptance CriteriaReported Device Performance
Not Applicable (N/A) - This document does not specify performance acceptance criteria for diagnostic accuracy or efficacy. The submission is a 510(k) for substantial equivalence, focusing on safety and technological similarities to a predicate device, rather than novel performance claims requiring specific acceptance thresholds.N/A - No specific device performance metrics like sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, or other quantitative measures are reported as part of a study to meet acceptance criteria.

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

  • N/A. The document does not describe a clinical performance study with a test set. The submission is based on substantial equivalence to a predicate device and adherence to safety standards.

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

  • N/A. As no clinical performance study with a test set is described, there is no mention of experts or ground truth establishment for such a study.

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

  • N/A. No clinical performance study with a test set is described.

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

  • N/A. The device is described as a system to manage, receive, store, display, and re-transmit patient ECG and other related data. It is not an AI-powered diagnostic tool, and therefore, an MRMC study comparing human readers with and without AI assistance is not applicable and not mentioned.

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

  • N/A. The device is a data management system, not an algorithm with standalone diagnostic performance.

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

  • N/A. As no clinical performance study is described, there is no mention of ground truth types.

8. The sample size for the training set

  • N/A. The document does not describe a machine learning algorithm or an AI training set.

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

  • N/A. As no machine learning training set is described, there is no information on how its ground truth would be established.

Summary of the K024365 510(k) Submission:

The TM2005 Personal Medical Phone™ Center is a software system designed to manage remote patient and physician data, including ECG and other patient-related information. It enables users to connect to an Internet server, view/update data, and download data. An external means (CGTTM) is mentioned for displaying, measuring, and printing downloaded ECGs.

The submission is a Special 510(k) based on substantial equivalence to the predicate device, the TM2000 Receiving Center (K992164). The primary difference noted is that TM2000 is a DB server, while TM2005 is a web server supporting JSP files, which the submitter claims has "no effect on safety, and are intended to improve the system effectiveness."

Conclusions on Safety and Effectiveness:

The document concludes that the TM2005 system is a "safe and reliable means for receiving, storing, displaying, updating, and re-transmitting of patient ECG and other patient related data." It states that its operation presents "no adverse health effect or safety risks to patients when used as intended." This conclusion is derived from a "rigorous design evaluation and the System Safety and Risk analysis," which categorized the device as a "moderate level of concern system." The manufacturer also states conformance with various medical device standards (e.g., IEC 601-1, ISO 9002) and FDA guidances.

In essence, this 510(k) notification demonstrates substantial equivalence primarily through technical comparison to a predicate device and adherence to recognized safety and quality standards, rather than through a clinical performance study with defined acceptance criteria.

Dear Mr. Gonorovsky:

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.
