The proposed SpyGlass™ Direct Visualization Probe is intended to provide direct visualization for diagnostic and therapeutic applications during endoscopic procedures in the pancreaticobiliary system including the hepatic ducts.
The proposed SpyGlass™ Direct Visualization Probe a fiberoptic endoscope. There is a glass fens at the distal end of the probe, and an adapter at the proximal end. The adapter has a bayonet fitting and a light post. An ocular lens connects to the bayonet fitting and the light post provides a connection for a light source. The proposed device is used with an ERCP cannula that provides stability for steering the device. The canula/probe is inserted into the working channel of a duodenoscope for entry into the duodenum and access to the pancreatico-biliary system.
Here's an analysis of the provided text regarding the SpyGlass™ Direct Visualization Probe, focusing on acceptance criteria and the supporting study:
No specific acceptance criteria or performance study proving the device meets them are explicitly detailed in the provided K050403 510(k) summary.
The document primarily focuses on establishing substantial equivalence to predicate devices rather than demonstrating performance against predefined acceptance criteria for clinical efficacy or specific performance metrics.
However, based on the information provided, we can infer some aspects:
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance:
| Acceptance Criteria (Inferred) | Reported Device Performance | Comments |
|---|---|---|
| Optical Performance | "A comparison of the optical performance and image quality specifications was made between the proposed and predicate Visicath Imaging Catheter." | The document states a comparison was made, implying the SpyGlass™ device must have met or been equivalent to the predicate's optical performance. However, specific metrics (e.g., resolution, field of view, illumination) or quantitative results are not provided. |
| Image Quality Specifications | "A comparison of the optical performance and image quality specifications was made between the proposed and predicate Visicath Imaging Catheter." | Similar to optical performance, this suggests equivalence or non-inferiority to the predicate, but no detailed specifications or results are given. |
| Electrical Safety | "Electrical safety testing was performed in accordance with industry standards." | This indicates the device passed relevant electrical safety tests. Specific standards (e.g., IEC 60601-1) usually define pass/fail acceptance criteria, but these are not listed. |
| Intended Use Equivalence | "The proposed SpyGlass™ Direct Visualization Probe is intended to provide direct visualization for diagnostic and therapeutic applications during endoscopic procedures in the pancreatico-biliary system including the hepatic ducts." | The conclusion states substantial equivalence in terms of the proposed indication to the 5 Star Medical Saratoga Modular Miniature Endoscope, implying the device performs as intended for visualization in the specified anatomical areas. |
| Technological Characteristics Equivalence | "Essentially, the SpyGlass™ Direct Visualization Probe has the same technological characteristics as the predicate devices." | Not strictly a performance metric, but a fundamental criterion for substantial equivalence. It implies the underlying technology is comparable, suggesting similar performance. |
2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance:
- Not Applicable. The provided text does not describe a clinical performance study with a "test set" in the sense of patient data. The performance evaluation cited ("comparison of the optical performance and image quality specifications") appears to be a benchtop or technical comparison against a predicate device, not a study involving human subjects or patient data.
- Therefore, there's no information on data provenance (country of origin, retrospective/prospective) because human data was not used for this specific performance evaluation.
3. Number of Experts Used to Establish Ground Truth and Qualifications:
- Not Applicable. Since there was no clinical study involving interpretation of images or diagnoses from the device, there was no need for experts to establish ground truth for a test set. The "comparison" mentioned likely involved engineering or quality control personnel assessing technical specifications.
4. Adjudication Method:
- Not Applicable. No adjudication method was mentioned as there was no clinical study requiring expert consensus.
5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study:
- No. The document does not mention an MRMC study. The focus was on demonstrating substantial equivalence through technical comparison and intended use, not on measuring improvements in human reader performance with the device.
6. Standalone (Algorithm Only Without Human-in-the-Loop Performance) Study:
- No. The SpyGlass™ Direct Visualization Probe is a physical endoscope, not an algorithm or AI system. Therefore, a standalone algorithm performance study is not applicable. The "performance data" refers to the physical device's characteristics.
7. Type of Ground Truth Used:
- Not Applicable (for clinical ground truth). For the "comparison of optical performance and image quality specifications," the "ground truth" would likely be established technical specifications and measurements of the predicate device, against which the new device's measurements were compared. This is a technical, engineering-based ground truth, not a clinical one (like pathology or outcomes data).
8. Sample Size for the Training Set:
- Not Applicable. There is no mention of a "training set" as this device is a hardware product, not a machine learning model.
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established:
- Not Applicable. As there was no training set, this question is not relevant.
Summary of the K050403 Submission's Approach:
The K050403 submission for the SpyGlass™ Direct Visualization Probe relies entirely on demonstrating substantial equivalence to legally marketed predicate devices (Boston Scientific Visicath Imaging Catheter and 5 Star Medical Saratoga Modular Miniature Endoscope). This is a common pathway for medical devices seeking 510(k) clearance.
Instead of presenting novel clinical performance data against specific acceptance criteria, the manufacturer:
- Compared the technological characteristics of the new device to the predicates.
- Ensured the intended use was equivalent or very similar.
- Provided performance data related to its optical characteristics and electrical safety, implying these met or were equivalent to the predicate's standards.
This approach means that the "acceptance criteria" for the SpyGlass™ device were largely framed by the established performance and safety profiles of the predicate devices. The study to prove it met these criteria was a technical comparison and electrical safety testing, not a human clinical trial.
