The Bard® AquaGuide™ Ureteral Conduit is indicated for use in endoscopic urology procedures where ureteral dilation and continued ureteral access is desired for injection and aspiration of fluids and insertion and removal of endoscopes and related instruments.
The Bard® AquaGuide™ Ureteral Conduit is a two-component ureteral dilation system which contains multiple lumens for injection and aspiration of fluids as well as passage of endoscopes and related instruments. The system consists of a hydrophilic-coated introducer with female luer connector and a hydrophilic-coated dual-lumen sheath with multi-function access hub. The system is available in three lengths: 25, 35 and 55cm and with either a 10Fr. Introducer with 12-14 Fr. sheath or a 12 Fr. Introducer with 14-16 Fr. sheath.
The provided text describes a 510(k) summary for the Bard® AquaGuide™ Ureteral Conduit, focusing on its substantial equivalence to a predicate device, the Applied Medical Ureteral Access Sheath Set. It does not contain information about acceptance criteria or a study proving device performance against such criteria in the context of an AI-powered device.
The information provided is for a traditional medical device (a ureteral conduit), and the regulatory submission is based on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device through a comparison of technological characteristics and intended use. Performance data summary in this context refers to the comparison of features, not a clinical study with quantitative performance metrics for AI.
Therefore, I cannot fulfill the request as it asks for details about "acceptance criteria and the study that proves the device meets the acceptance criteria" in the context of AI device performance, which is not present in the provided document.
Here's why the provided text doesn't fit the request:
- No AI Device: The device described is a physical medical instrument (Ureteral Conduit), not an AI-powered diagnostic or therapeutic system.
- No Quantitative Performance Metrics: The "Performance Data Summary" is a table comparing features like size ranges and materials to a predicate device. It does not include acceptance criteria (e.g., sensitivity, specificity, accuracy targets) or reported device performance in those terms.
- No Clinical Study Details: There is no mention of a study design, sample sizes (for test or training sets), expert adjudication, ground truth establishment, or multi-reader multi-case studies, which are all typically associated with proving the performance of AI algorithms.
- Regulatory Pathway: The K030438 submission is a 510(k), which relies on demonstrating "substantial equivalence" to a legally marketed predicate device, rather than requiring extensive de novo clinical trials to prove novel performance metrics (which would be more common for an AI device).

Dear Mr. Mosenkis:
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 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.
Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. 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.
{3}------------------------------------------------
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.

§ 876.1500 Endoscope and accessories.
(a)
Identification. An endoscope and accessories is a device used to provide access, illumination, and allow observation or manipulation of body cavities, hollow organs, and canals. The device consists of various rigid or flexible instruments that are inserted into body spaces and may include an optical system for conveying an image to the user's eye and their accessories may assist in gaining access or increase the versatility and augment the capabilities of the devices. Examples of devices that are within this generic type of device include cleaning accessories for endoscopes, photographic accessories for endoscopes, nonpowered anoscopes, binolcular attachments for endoscopes, pocket battery boxes, flexible or rigid choledochoscopes, colonoscopes, diagnostic cystoscopes, cystourethroscopes, enteroscopes, esophagogastroduodenoscopes, rigid esophagoscopes, fiberoptic illuminators for endoscopes, incandescent endoscope lamps, biliary pancreatoscopes, proctoscopes, resectoscopes, nephroscopes, sigmoidoscopes, ureteroscopes, urethroscopes, endomagnetic retrievers, cytology brushes for endoscopes, and lubricating jelly for transurethral surgical instruments. This section does not apply to endoscopes that have specialized uses in other medical specialty areas and that are covered by classification regulations in other parts of the device classification regulations.(b)
Classification —(1)Class II (special controls). The device, when it is an endoscope disinfectant basin, which consists solely of a container that holds disinfectant and endoscopes and accessories; an endoscopic magnetic retriever intended for single use; sterile scissors for cystoscope intended for single use; a disposable, non-powered endoscopic grasping/cutting instrument intended for single use; a diagnostic incandescent light source; a fiberoptic photographic light source; a routine fiberoptic light source; an endoscopic sponge carrier; a xenon arc endoscope light source; an endoscope transformer; an LED light source; or a gastroenterology-urology endoscopic guidewire, is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 876.9.(2) Class I for the photographic accessories for endoscope, miscellaneous bulb adapter for endoscope, binocular attachment for endoscope, eyepiece attachment for prescription lens, teaching attachment, inflation bulb, measuring device for panendoscope, photographic equipment for physiologic function monitor, special lens instrument for endoscope, smoke removal tube, rechargeable battery box, pocket battery box, bite block for endoscope, and cleaning brush for endoscope. The devices subject to this paragraph (b)(2) are exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807of this chapter, subject to the limitations in § 876.9.
