AI/ML Overview

The provided text is related to a 510(k) clearance for the Stellartech Coagulation System. It focuses on regulatory approval based on substantial equivalence to predicate devices, rather than a study demonstrating specific performance metrics against acceptance criteria. Therefore, most of the requested information regarding acceptance criteria, study design, sample sizes, expert involvement, and ground truth establishment is not present in the provided document.

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

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

This information is not provided in the document. The 510(k) summary focuses on demonstrating "substantial equivalence" of the Stellartech Coagulation System to existing predicate devices (Hobbs Medical Dilation Balloon Catheter, Stellartech Coagulation System K013139, Stellartech Coagulation System K023765) based on design, principles of operation, materials, and intended use. It does not provide specific acceptance criteria or performance metrics for the device itself.

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

This information is not provided in the document. The submission is a regulatory premarket notification based on equivalence, not a clinical study with a test set.

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)

This information is not provided in the document. No test set or ground truth establishment is described.

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

This information is not provided in the document. No test set or adjudication method 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

This information is not provided in the document. The device is an electrosurgical unit, not an AI-assisted diagnostic tool, so an MRMC study related to human reader improvement with AI would not be applicable.

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

This information is not provided in the document. The device is a physical electrosurgical system, not an algorithm.

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

This information is not provided in the document. No ground truth is mentioned as it's not a study requiring such data.

8. The sample size for the training set

This information is not provided in the document. No training set is mentioned.

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

This information is not provided in the document. No training set or ground truth establishment is described.

Dear Mr. Seeger:

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. Iisting 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.

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.
