Intended Use

The RPM Respiratory Gating System is used to obtain tracking of the subject respiratory pattern for respiratory synchronized image acquisition, and radiation therapy treatment. It can be also used to monitor the patient position during the image acquisition, simulation and treatment.

Device Description

The Varian RPM Respiratory Gating Device is an attachment to the Varian Clinac radiation therapy treatment systems, radiation therapy simulators, and image acquisition devices used for diagnostics and radiation therapy. The RPM system senses and records the respiratory motion and respiratory state of a patient using video tracking of an optical marker placed on the patient to a location indicated by the physician. Video camera is connected to a PC workstation is used for video tracking of markers.

AI/ML Overview

I am sorry, but the provided text does not contain any information about acceptance criteria or a study that proves the device meets those criteria. The document is a 510(k) summary and an FDA clearance letter for the RPM Respiratory Gating System.

It describes the device, its intended use, and states that it is substantially equivalent to a predicate device based on a comparison of technological characteristics. However, it does not include:

  • A table of acceptance criteria and reported device performance.
  • Information about sample sizes, data provenance, or ground truth establishment for any test sets.
  • Details on expert involvement, adjudication methods, or MRMC studies.
  • Results of a standalone algorithm performance study.

The document primarily focuses on establishing substantial equivalence to a predicate device, which is the basis for 510(k) clearance, rather than presenting detailed performance study results against specific acceptance criteria.

Dear Ms. Tran:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (Premarket Approval), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

{2}------------------------------------------------

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.

This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your Section 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.

If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801), please contact the Office of Compliance at one of the following numbers, based on the regulation number at the top of this letter:

21 CFR 876.xxx(Gastroenterology/Renal/Urology)240-276-0115
