Intended Use

COMBOsafe/Promax Surgical Gowns are medical devices that are intended to be worn by operating room personnel during surgical procedures to protect them by inhibiting the migration of liquids through the surface of the critical areas of the gown. COMBOsafe/Promax Surgical Gowns will function as surgical gowns when processed according to instructions through 75 complete wash, dry and sterilization cycles. These products will be manufactured and distributed as non-sterile surgical gowns that are intended to be sterilized and processed by health care facilities and/or contract sterilization/laundry companies.

AI/ML Overview

This request is about a medical device and describes the information to be extracted from the provided text. The provided text is a 510(k) premarket notification for a surgical gown. However, the request asks for information relevant to an AI/ML powered device (e.g., sample size for training set, number of experts for ground truth, adjudication method, MRMC study). These concepts are not applicable to the traditional medical device described in the document.

Therefore, I cannot fulfill the request with the given input. The provided document does not contain any information about an AI/ML powered device, and thus cannot answer the questions regarding acceptance criteria, study design, or performance metrics for such a device.

§ 878.4040 Surgical apparel.

(a)
Identification. Surgical apparel are devices that are intended to be worn by operating room personnel during surgical procedures to protect both the surgical patient and the operating room personnel from transfer of microorganisms, body fluids, and particulate material. Examples include surgical caps, hoods, masks, gowns, operating room shoes and shoe covers, and isolation masks and gowns. Surgical suits and dresses, commonly known as scrub suits, are excluded.(b)
Classification. (1) Class II (special controls) for surgical gowns and surgical masks. A surgical N95 respirator or N95 filtering facepiece respirator is not exempt if it is intended to prevent specific diseases or infections, or it is labeled or otherwise represented as filtering surgical smoke or plumes, filtering specific amounts of viruses or bacteria, reducing the amount of and/or killing viruses, bacteria, or fungi, or affecting allergenicity, or it contains coating technologies unrelated to filtration (e.g., to reduce and or kill microorganisms). Surgical N95 respirators and N95 filtering facepiece respirators are exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to § 878.9, and the following conditions for exemption:(i) The user contacting components of the device must be demonstrated to be biocompatible.
(ii) Analysis and nonclinical testing must:
(A) Characterize flammability and be demonstrated to be appropriate for the intended environment of use; and
(B) Demonstrate the ability of the device to resist penetration by fluids, such as blood and body fluids, at a velocity consistent with the intended use of the device.
(iii) NIOSH approved under its regulation.
(2) Class I (general controls) for surgical apparel other than surgical gowns and surgical masks. The class I device is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to § 878.9.
