Intended Use

The Biocellulase SmoothShapes device is indicated for the relief of minor muscle aches and pain, relief of muscle spasms, temporary improvement of local hlood circulation, and temporary reduction in the appearance of cellulite.

Device Description

The SmoothShapes system consists of a main console unit and an applied part (massage head with rollers) which is connected to the main console by an umbilical. The main console unit contains the powersupply, hardware, transformers, fuses, cooling fan, mains-input connection, and the key-switch. The massage head, which is placed against the patient's skin, contains the rollers, LEDs, and laser diodes. The massage head rollers are mobilized in rotation and sliding back and forth. The patient massage is generated by the vacuum introduced to skin fold between the two rollers. The rollers in combination with the vacuum manipulate and smooth out the skin which facilitates tissue mobilization. The laser light provides topical heating which increases tissue temperature.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text is a 510(k) Summary for the Biocellulase SmoothShapes device, which is a regulatory submission to the FDA. This document primarily focuses on establishing substantial equivalence to predicate devices for regulatory clearance rather than presenting a detailed clinical study for novel performance claims or acceptance criteria in the way a clinical trial report would.

Therefore, much of the requested information regarding detailed acceptance criteria, study design, sample sizes for test and training sets, expert qualifications, and ground truth methodologies is not explicitly available in this summary. The submission relies on demonstrating similarity to already approved devices.

Here's an analysis based on the provided text:

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

Acceptance Criteria (Inferred from Predicate Equivalence)Reported Device Performance
Intended Use: Relief of minor muscle aches and pain, relief of muscle spasms, temporary improvement of local blood circulation, temporary reduction in the appearance of cellulite.The document states, "Based on its technological characteristics and the nonclinical testing, the Biocellulase SmoothShapes system is as safe and effective as the abovenamed predicate devices, for the intended use." This implies the device is expected to achieve these outcomes at a comparable level to the predicates, but no specific performance metrics (e.g., % reduction in cellulite appearance, pain scale reduction) are provided.
Safety: Electrical safety, maximal skin temperature rise limits.Electrical safety testing was performed. Tissue block testing was performed "to confirm maximal skin temperature rise." No specific numerical thresholds or results are provided in this summary.
Technological Characteristics: Vacuum, rollers, LEDs, and laser diodes for tissue manipulation and heating.The device description outlines these components and their functions. The comparison to predicate devices states, "The SmoothShapes is substantially equivalent to the predicates with respect to intended use and technological characteristics."

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

  • Not explicitly available. The submission highlights "nonclinical testing" (electrical safety and tissue block testing). These are typically bench tests or in vitro studies, not clinical trials with human subjects for efficacy. The text does not describe any clinical test set or data provenance in the context of device performance for its intended use.

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 explicitly available. Since no clinical test set for efficacy is described, there's no mention of experts establishing ground truth for such a set. For the nonclinical testing, the "experts" would likely be engineers or technicians performing the safety tests, but their qualifications are not detailed.

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

  • Not applicable/Not explicitly available. No clinical test set requiring adjudication is described.

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 therapeutic device (massager/shaper with light-induced heating), not an AI-assisted diagnostic or imaging interpretation tool. Therefore, an MRMC study and AI assistance are not relevant to this submission.

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

  • Not applicable. This device is a physical therapeutic device with specific mechanisms of action, not a software algorithm.

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

  • For the nonclinical testing: The ground truth for electrical safety would be adherence to relevant electrical safety standards. For tissue block testing, the ground truth would be the measured temperature and its comparison to accepted safety thresholds.
  • For the intended use claims: The submission relies on substantial equivalence to predicate devices that presumably had established their efficacy through clinical data or historical use. The device itself does not present new clinical data that would require "ground truth" to be established for novelty.

8. The sample size for the training set:

  • Not applicable/Not explicitly available. Since no clinical study for efficacy is described in the summary, there is no mention of a training set for machine learning or similar applications.

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

  • Not applicable/Not explicitly available. For the reasons mentioned above.

In summary:

This 510(k) submission is a "summary of safety and effectiveness" for a physical device seeking clearance based on substantial equivalence to legally marketed predicate devices. It focuses on comparing technological characteristics and intended use, along with basic non-clinical safety testing. It does not contain the details of a clinical efficacy study with human subjects, which would typically include acceptance criteria defined by performance metrics, detailed sample sizes, expert involvement, and ground truth establishment methods for clinical outcomes.
