This document is a 510(k) premarket notification from the FDA, specifically concerning the substantial equivalence of Medline Prevention Surgical Gowns to predicate devices. It does not contain any information about acceptance criteria or a study proving that the device meets acceptance criteria.
The letter from the FDA to Medline Industries, Inc. states that the FDA has reviewed the 510(k) submission and determined that the device is substantially equivalent to legally marketed predicate devices. This determination is based on the comparison of the new device to existing devices, usually in terms of materials, intended use, and performance characteristics, but the letter itself does not detail the specific performance criteria or the study data demonstrating compliance.
Therefore, I cannot provide the requested information, which includes:
- A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance
- Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance
- Number of experts used to establish the ground truth
- Adjudication method
- If a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done
- If a standalone performance (algorithm only) was done
- The type of ground truth used
- The sample size for the training set
- How the ground truth for the training set was established
These details would typically be found in the actual 510(k) submission documentation, which is not provided in the given text. The provided document is just the FDA's decision letter acknowledging the substantial equivalence.
§ 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.
