Study Information

  1. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance:

    • The document does not specify a sample size for a test set. This was a 510(k) premarket notification for a replacement accessory, focusing on equivalence to predicate devices rather than a new clinical study with a test set of patients.
    • Data Provenance: Not applicable in the context of a clinical test set. The data presented is from bench testing and conformity to standards.
  2. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts:

    • Not applicable. There is no mention of a test set with ground truth established by experts. The determination of substantial equivalence relies on comparison to existing, legally marketed devices and specified technical performance.
  3. Adjudication method for the test set:

    • Not applicable. No test set requiring adjudication is described.
  4. 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:

    • No. This is a medical device (transducer) for measuring physiological signals, not an AI-assisted diagnostic tool for human readers. Therefore, an MRMC study is not relevant or mentioned.
  5. If a standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done:

    • No. This device is an accessory transducer, not a standalone algorithm. The "performance" assessment is based on physical and technical characteristics and its ability to function as a direct replacement for predicate transducers.
  6. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.):

    • The "ground truth" in this context is the performance and specifications of the predicate devices (Corometrics, Epic, Hewlett Packard transducers) and established consensus standards (e.g., for biocompatibility, acoustic output limits). The AIV transducers aim to meet or be equivalent to these.
  7. The sample size for the training set:

    • Not applicable. This device is not an AI algorithm that requires a training set.
  8. How the ground truth for the training set was established:

    • Not applicable. As above, this device is not an AI algorithm.
