AI/ML Overview

The Dynatron® Solaris™ Series (models 709, 708, 706, and 705) are therapeutic devices offering electrical stimulation, ultrasound, and/or infrared therapy. The document K031329 confirms their safety and effectiveness through substantial equivalence to predicate devices, following the FDA's 510(k) premarket notification process.

Here's an analysis of the provided information concerning acceptance criteria and the supporting study:

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

The provided document does not explicitly state quantitative "acceptance criteria" in the typical sense (e.g., a specific sensitivity or specificity threshold for a diagnostic device). Instead, the acceptance criteria are implicitly met through demonstrating Substantial Equivalence (SE) to legally marketed predicate devices. The "reported device performance" is the confirmation of this substantial equivalence.

CriterionAcceptance StandardReported Device Performance (as per K031339 Summary)
Safety and EffectivenessSubstantial equivalence to predicate devices"The Solaris family of electrical stimulation, ultrasound, and/or combination products, and accessories, are safe and effective, when used as indicated in specific applications under a clinician's supervision/therapy program."
Basic Characteristics & FeaturesSame or similar to predicate devices"The Dynatron Solaris 709, 708, 706, and 705, offer electrical stimulation, ultrasonic therapy and/or a combination of the two, and share the same or similar basic characteristics and the same general intended use in physical medicine... as the predicate devices."
General Intended Use/IndicationsSame as predicate devices"The Intended Use/Indications For Use stated herein are consistent with the cleared indications for the predicate devices." (Page 2) and "share the same general intended use in physical medicine..." (Page 2)
Performance Standards ComplianceConformance to applicable CFR sections"The Dynatron Solaris Series of devices conform to the applicable requirements of 21 CFR sections 1010 (Performance Standards for Electronic Products: General) and 1050 (Performance Standards for Sonic, Infrasonic, and Ultrasonic Radiation-Emitting Products)." (Page 1)
Quality Management SystemDeveloped under a mature Quality Management System"They were developed and documented under Dynatronics' mature Quality Management System, under the Quality System Regulation, 21 CFR Part 820, under design/change control, and is verified/validated to applicable standards/guidance documents." (Page 2)

2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance

The document does not describe a "test set" in the context of a prospective clinical study with a defined sample size. The substantial equivalence determination is based on a comparison to existing predicate devices.

  • Sample Size for Test Set: Not applicable or not explicitly stated as a separate test set with specific patient data. The "sample" is effectively the design, specifications, and performance characteristics of the new devices being compared to existing, cleared devices.
  • Data Provenance: Not applicable in the sense of patient data. The "data" pertains to the technical specifications, intended uses, and safety/performance characteristics of the devices themselves, derived from their design documentation, manufacturing processes, and compliance with performance standards. This is not retrospective or prospective patient data from a clinical trial.

3. Number of Experts Used to Establish Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications of Those Experts

This information is not applicable as the document does not describe a study involving human experts establishing "ground truth" on a test set of patient cases. The "ground truth" for predicate devices is established by their prior clearance through the FDA and their safe and effective use in the market.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

This information is not applicable as there is no specific "test set" and no "ground truth" arbitration process described for a diagnostic or AI performance study.

5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study

A MRMC comparative effectiveness study was not done and is not described in the document. This type of study is typically performed to evaluate the impact of an AI diagnostic tool on human reader performance, which is not the subject of this 510(k) submission.

6. Standalone Performance Study (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance)

A standalone performance study was not done and is not described. The devices in question are physical therapeutic devices (electrical stimulators, ultrasound, infrared) and not AI algorithms or diagnostic software that would undergo standalone performance testing.

7. Type of Ground Truth Used

The "ground truth" in this context is established by the prior FDA clearance of the predicate devices. The new devices (Dynatron Solaris Series) are deemed safe and effective because they are substantially equivalent to devices already recognized as safe and effective by regulatory bodies. It's not based on pathology, outcomes data, or expert consensus on new patient data for the new devices, but rather on the established performance and regulatory status of the predicate devices.

8. Sample Size for the Training Set

This information is not applicable. The devices are not AI or machine learning models that require a "training set."

9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established

This information is not applicable for the same reasons as point 8.
