Intended Use

The KING LT-D is intended for use in adult patients (in excess of 25 kg) for controlled ventilation during anesthesia for procedures that are short in duration and when the patient is considered to have a low risk of aspiration of stomach contents.

Device Description

Each device is constructed of medical grade elastomeric and thermoplastic materials. All fittings conform to ISO 5356-1/1996: Anesthetic and Respiratory Equipment - Conical Connectors; Part 1 Cones and Sockets. The device incorporates the following components or features:

  • . Bi-directional gas flow through a ventilation channel.
  • Inflatable bladders to assist in maintenance of placement and in sealing the . airway from the stomach and from the atmosphere
  • . Indicators for proper placement permanently printed on the tube
  • A rigid plastic connector complying with ISO standards for the 15mm connection . to the patient end of a breathing circuit.
AI/ML Overview

This document describes a premarket notification (510(k)) for the KING LT-D Disposable Oropharyngeal Airway, not an AI device. Therefore, many of the requested criteria (e.g., sample sizes for test/training sets, expert ground truth, MRMC studies, standalone performance, software validation) are not applicable.

The document focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device for a disposable version of an existing product. The acceptance criteria are related to material properties, design conformity, and intended use, rather than performance metrics of an AI algorithm.

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

Instructions that patient should have fasted before using the product?YesYes
Latex free productYesYes
Product classificationCAF (predicate)CAE
Materials in conformity with voluntary standards (ISO 5356-1/1996, ASTM F1242-96, EN30993/ISO 10993)Utilized in whole or in partYes (stated in text)
BiocompatibilityEquivalent to other medical devicesYes (stated in text)
All verification and validation activities demonstrated that the predetermined acceptance criteria were met.YesYes (stated in text)
Conformance with design control procedure requirements as specified in 21 CFR 820.30YesYes (stated in text)

Study Proving Acceptance Criteria:

The study proving the device meets the acceptance criteria is a premarket notification (510(k)) submission demonstrating substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device (King Systems Corporation KLT Oropharyngeal Airway, 510(k) #K021634).

The acceptance criteria are primarily met by:

  • Direct comparison of characteristics (e.g., intended use, design, dimensions, materials, sterile status) to the predicate device.
  • Compliance with recognized standards: ISO 5356-1/1996-12-15, ASTM F1242-96, and EN30993/ISO 10993 for biocompatibility.
  • Risk analysis and verification/validation activities: The document states that "the designated individual(s) performed all verification and validation activities and the results of the activities demonstrated that the predetermined acceptance criteria were met."
  • Conformance with design control procedures as per 21 CFR 820.30.

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

Not applicable. This is a medical device submission based on substantial equivalence to a predicate, not a study involving a test set of data in the context of an AI/software device. The product is manufactured in Malaysia.

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)

Not applicable. This device is not software driven and does not involve AI or the establishment of ground truth by experts in the sense of diagnostic accuracy studies.

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

Not applicable. There is no test set or adjudication process described for this device.

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

Not applicable. This is not an AI-assisted device.

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

Not applicable. This is not an AI algorithm. The document explicitly states: "This device is not software driven. Software validation and verification is not applicable."

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

Not applicable in the context of an AI device. For this medical device, the "ground truth" or basis for acceptance is primarily the characteristics and performance of the legally marketed predicate device and compliance with established international and ASTM standards for design, materials, and intended use.

8. The sample size for the training set

Not applicable. This is a medical device, not an AI model requiring a training set.

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

Not applicable, as there is no training set for this type of device.

Dear Mr. McGrail:

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.
