Intended Use

This device is a protective finger guard accessory to the surgeon's glove. (a) intended to provide needlestick and suture/scalpel protection during a variety of surgical procedures. It is a protective finger guard accessory to the surgeon's glove. It is used on the finger or thumb of the non-dominant hand usually used to retract, stabilize, compress, and position tissue during surgical procedures. (b) Facilitate suture handling and placement.

Device Description

This device is a sterile single use protective finger guard worn in conjunction with surgeon's glove.

AI/ML Overview

The provided 510(k) summary for the MARINA MEDICAL FINGER PROTECTOR (K042534) does not describe a clinical study or performance tests with specific acceptance criteria and reported device performance in the way a typical diagnostic device submission would. Instead, this submission relies on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device (DIGICAP, K012199) primarily through comparison of technological characteristics.

Therefore, the acceptance criteria and study information will be presented reflecting this approach.


Acceptance Criteria and Study Proving Device Meets Criteria

The Marina Medical Finger Protector (K042534) sought clearance by demonstrating substantial equivalence to a predicate device (DIGICAP, K012199). The "acceptance criteria" in this context are the demonstrated identical technological characteristics to the predicate device, which inherently implies identical performance, safety, and effectiveness. The "study" proving this largely involves a comparative analysis against the predicate.

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

Acceptance Criteria (Demonstrated Substantial Equivalence to Predicate K012199)Reported Device Performance (as demonstrated by comparison)
Indications for use are identicalIdentical
Target population is identicalIdentical
Design is identicalIdentical
Materials are identicalIdentical
Performance is identicalIdentical
Sterility is identicalIdentical
Biocompatibility is identicalIdentical
Mechanical safety is identicalIdentical
Chemical safety is identicalIdentical
Anatomical sites are identicalIdentical
Human factors are identicalIdentical
Compatibility with environment and other devices is identicalIdentical
Where used is identicalIdentical
Standards met are identicalIdentical

Note: "Energy used and/or delivered", "Electrical safety", "Thermal safety", and "Radiation safety" were deemed "Not applicable" for this device and thus were not criteria for comparison.

2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance

There was no "test set" in the traditional sense of clinical data or performance measurements on a specific sample size of the device. The comparison was based on the technological characteristics and established performance of the legally marketed predicate device (DIGICAP, K012199). Data provenance for such comparison would be the established regulatory clearances and documentation of the predicate device.

3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts

Not applicable. Ground truth was not established by experts for a specific test set, as no clinical or performance study with a test set was conducted for this submission. The ground truth for device safety and effectiveness was established through the prior clearance of the predicate device and the comprehensive comparison of characteristics.

4. Adjudication method for the test set

Not applicable. No test set requiring adjudication was used.

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 device is a sterile single-use protective finger guard, not an AI-assisted diagnostic tool.

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

Not applicable. This device is a physical medical device, not an algorithm.

7. The type of ground truth used

The "ground truth" for the clearance of the Marina Medical Finger Protector was the demonstrated substantial equivalence to a predicate device (DIGICAP, K012199) that had already been deemed safe and effective. The premise is that if the new device is technologically identical to a legally marketed device, it shares the same safety and effectiveness profile.

8. The sample size for the training set

Not applicable. No training set was used for an algorithm.

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

Not applicable. No training set for an algorithm was used or required.
