1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance
See table above.
2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective)
- Sample Size for Test Set: The document describes "verification testing performed according to protocols," but it does not specify the exact sample sizes (e.g., number of ports or infusion sets) used for these engineering tests. This is typical for bench testing summaries in 510(k) applications, where the focus is on the methodology's rigor rather than statistical power from a large 'test set' of clinical cases.
- Data Provenance: The data is generated from non-clinical (bench) performance testing and design verification testing conducted internally by Bard Access Systems, Inc. (BAS) located in Salt Lake City, UT, USA. The data is prospective in the sense that these tests were performed specifically for this 510(k) submission, but it's not "prospective" in the clinical trial sense. The country of origin of the data is the United States.
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)
- This is a non-clinical (bench) testing summary for a medical device. There are no "experts" in the sense of medical professionals establishing a ground truth for a test set of medical images or patient data. The "ground truth" for these engineering tests is established by the specifications defined in the referenced FDA guidances and ISO standards (e.g., a specific pressure or flow rate should be sustained without failure). The expertise lies in the engineers and quality assurance personnel who designed and executed the tests and analyzed the results according to these predefined criteria. Their qualifications are not specified in this document.
4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set
- Not applicable. This document describes non-clinical, engineering (bench) testing, not a study involving human interpretation or adjudication of results. The results are typically quantitative measurements against predefined engineering specifications.
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 document relates to a physical medical device (implantable port and infusion set), not an AI-powered diagnostic system. Therefore, no MRMC study, AI assistance, or human reader improvement was evaluated.
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the loop performance) was done
- Not applicable. This document is about a physical medical device, not an algorithm.
7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc)
- The "ground truth" for the performance testing is based on established engineering specifications, performance standards, and regulatory guidance documents (e.g., required sterilization levels, biocompatibility, maximum flow rate capacity without failure). It's a quantitative "ground truth" derived from industry and regulatory standards, not clinical outcomes or expert consensus on medical findings.
8. The sample size for the training set
- Not applicable. This document describes non-clinical performance and design verification testing of a physical medical device. There is no "training set" in the context of machine learning or AI models. The testing described is analogous to validation testing against predefined specifications.
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established
- Not applicable. As there is no "training set," the establishment of its ground truth is also not relevant. The "ground truth" for the test data (i.e., the performance testing) was established by adherence to FDA guidance documents and international standards for medical device design verification and performance evaluation.
